The service was great! We went on Taco Tuesday and I must say they were delicious. Between two of us we had 6 tacos and a basket of nachos with dip and we were very full. The bill...$6.42. There isn't much ambiance and things look a little old but very clean. It's become our favorite Tuesday Ishtar place
I recently had the unfortunate experience of dining at El Tarasco Taqueria & Restaurant, and I must say it was nothing short of a disappointing disaster. From start to finish, it was a culinary catastrophe.To kick off this disastrous evening, I decided to order the Nacho Supreme from the menu, which, according to their description, promised a tantalizing combination of "beef or chicken, lettuce, cheese, beans, tomatoes, sour cream, guacamole, and jalapeños." Sounds mouthwatering, right? Well, what actually showed up at my table was a sad excuse for nachos: a mound of chips and some tough, flavorless steak. Yes steak! Not the beef or chicken I had expected. It was like they couldn't even be bothered to read their own menu.Hoping to salvage this already regrettable meal, I requested guacamole, as it was clearly listed as an ingredient in the Nacho Supreme description. Lo and behold, they charged me an outrageous $3.50 for that tiny dollop of guacamole. Seriously? Is guacamole now a rare and precious gem?But the icing on this disastrous cake came when I received the bill. Not only did I get charged extra for the steak that should have been included in the "Nacho Supreme," but they had the audacity to charge me a grand total of $17 for a plate of chips, subpar steak, and a minuscule portion of guacamole that should have been part of the meal deal priced at $10.99. It's a classic bait-and-switch tactic that left a bitter taste in my mouth.To make matters worse, I can't help but wonder if El Tarasco Taqueria & Restaurant is attempting to extort people with lighter skin. It's appalling to think that they might discriminate based on ethnicity when it comes to pricing or service, but based on my experience, it wouldn't surprise me if they engage in such unethical practices.In conclusion, my visit to El Tarasco Taqueria & Restaurant was an absolute disaster. The false advertising, overpriced guacamole, and questionable billing practices left me feeling cheated and disheartened. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone unless you enjoy subpar food, hidden charges, and the suspicion of discriminatory practices. Save your time, money, and appetite for a more honest and reputable dining establishment.

Authentic Mexican food for sure! I love tacos and choose the ala carte and got pastor, shrimp, carnitas tacos all the way! Perfection with great flavor. Chips were good, the salsa was a little runny/thin for my liking. Service was great. Check out girl could be more nicer in conversation. The restaurant itself is smaller in size with only 10-12 tables so wait times can be lengthy at times. Overall good first time experience and would return for another meal.

One of the most authentic Mexican restaurants in town. You can tell by the clientele that frequent it. Sometimes, when it's busy, there's a bit of a wait. Yummy french fries too. Service is okay. Sometimes not so friendly, not mean, just doesn't seem to care. But tge food is what I come for. I recommend the carne asada tacos.
