Best Mexican Food in the San Fernando Valley. If you like your Mexican food spicy, I doubt you will find a more satisfying meal outside of Mexico. Last weekend, they added the Agua Chile, a shrimp cevice in an incredibly potent green sauce with cucumbers, avocado slices, red onion--truly unlike any cevice I have ever tasted, and utterly delightful.

Each day of the week, Corona features a special dish. Menudo y Pozole on the weekend, Thursday the Carne en Su Jugo, Wednesday the Costillas de Puerco, Friday the Tacos de Pescado. All are flavored sublimely. And the frijoles are tied with the Gardens of Taxco for best in the city.

I know that I gush about this place, but that is only because I want to share with the rest of the world an experience that has given me such great joy. And try the nachos. And the Torta Ahogada (I dare you to order it spicy).
