Elevated Mexican taquería at 7556 Fay Ave, Ste A in La Jolla, 92037, opened June 2025 in the former Ambrogio by Acquerello space. Chef and restaurateur Ryan Elias Salem leads the kitchen, placing Taco Time Cantina on the same Fay Avenue dining corridor as Sugar and Scribe a block south. The menu focuses on tacos crafted with organic heirloom corn tortillas from southern Mexico and proteins cooked exclusively in avocado oil — no seed oils. The signature Ribeye Taco is the breakout item, alongside fire-grilled carne asada, filet mignon, shrimp, and a surf-and-turf burrito. House salsas — pico de gallo, green, mango habanero, orange, and red — are all made fresh daily. Open seven days from 10:30 AM, and taco loyalists who want the Tijuana street-stand format head to The Taco Stand on Pearl.
