About El Tarasco

El Tarasco offers delicious and plentiful Mexican food in a casual and comfortable atmosphere. The caldo de res is a favorite, served with large handmade tortillas. The salsa has a good kick, and the homemade quesadilla de flor de calabaza is a must-try. The tacos de asada can be a bit salty, but the molcajete sharable plate is a very good portion. Don't miss the cafe de olla and homemade tortillas! The restaurant also features a bar where guests can enjoy drinks like mojitos and mangonada Margaritas. Customers often praise the flavorful horchata, al pastor tacos, and tasty salsas, all at reasonable prices. The place is cozy, clean, and has a friendly, attentive staff, making it a great spot to share with family. It is located in Archer Heights, known for its beautiful mural and butterfly decor, and has been a favorite since 2016. Wheelchair access is available. Overall, visitors find the atmosphere pleasant and the food authentic, with many recommending the lunch specials and dishes like shrimp ceviche tostada and chicken verde enchiladas. The experience is described as phenomenal, with good prices and excellent service.

Claro el sabor de la comida es definitivamente sabrosa pero la cantidad nos fallo🤷‍♀️🥹 My...read full review

Stay away from them, very bad service if you eat there and terrible customer service at the party meals. I ordered a meal for my wife and THEY messed up our order and instead of trying to correct the problem, I as a customer have to leave my party right at meal time to fix their mistake. And if you speak up to complain, they tell us not to worry, they were going to cancel the transaction just to avoid further inconvenience. However, the next day this guy, completely uneducated,...read full review
