With each passing week, we inch closer to the first Saturday in May. This year’s road to the Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve, like so many before it, has already been filled with twists, turns, spectacular performances and several surprises.

If you’re heading to legendary Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, Calif. track this upcoming weekend for the San Felipe Stakes, then we have some restaurant recommendations you can’t miss. Whether you’re in the mood for delicious cheap eats or if you favor fine dining, below are some places you’ll want to check out while you’re in town.

Welcome to Tacos and Trifectas! Each week, America’s Best Racing’s Southern California correspondent Jose Contreras - @LosPonies to those who follow him on Twitter - will provide a taco review along with a selection that he will key in trifecta bets in hopes of winning some cash to buy more tacos! Contreras will map out a trifecta betting strategy for how to key his main pick and keep track of his return on investment (ROI), which was positive in 2017.

Stop back each week if you love tacos and want a trifecta play!

If you’re in one of these cities or just passing through, congrats, you now have a bourbon bar to visit.
