A dozen food scouts were recently sent from Sunset Magazine to chomp their way through the West in search of the best taco.

Who would have dreamed they'd discover it in Salt Lake City.But it's true. Backed by their research and practiced palates, these foodies chose Lone Star Taqueria as the home of "The Top Tacos." Best in the West.

Surprised? The kicker is that Lone Star's winning tacos are worlds away from the usual corn tortilla filled with seasoned ground beef and shredded lettuce.

Fish tacos are Lone Star's baby. They originated south of the border as street food, migrated to California and have been booming here ever since. Just ask the folks lined up out the door of this former frozen yogurt shop that's been transformed into a hot spot for authentic Mexican takeout.
