Move over, Taco Boy — there’s a new sheriff in town, and his name is Sloppy Jose. After years of holding the taco crown in South Carolina, Taco Boy finally meets its match, and dare I say, its replacement. The Carnitas Tacos at Sloppy Jose’s Cantina and Seafood Grill in Murrells Inlet are next-level delicious. These tacos are super cheesy, juicy, and packed with rich, slow-cooked pork that melts in your mouth. The tortilla is grilled just right, with a satisfying crisp that holds everything together like a flavor bomb wrapped in love. Add in a splash of lime and their house salsa, and it’s game over. Taco Boy walked so Sloppy Jose could salsa dance — and trust me, this place has the rhythm. The best taco in the state still lives in SC, but the crown officially resides in Murrells Inlet now. #CarnitasTacos #SloppyJoses #MurrellsInletEats #SouthCarolinaFood #TacoTakeover #CheesyTacos #FoodieFinds #SCFoodie #TacoReview #TacoBoyDethroned #Foodstagram #EatLocalSC #LowcountryEats #InstaEats #SittingBehindHomeEats

Good tacos. Nothing special, if I go back here it'd be for the drinks.

Always good times at MFF. Little much on the cilantro and definitely need hot sauce, but overall good tacos. The chips are really where its at! . . . . #food #foodie #foodstagram #foodlover #foodporn #foodlife #yum #goodfood #southjersey #nj #tristate #sj #tacos #mexican #gf #glutenfree #gluten #like #follow #eats #grub
