El Tarasco Mexican Restaurant is a North Woods Mexican restaurant that offers delicious food, including a highly praised molcajete, and excellent service. The restaurant is known for its tasty asada and carnitas tacos, quesadillas, beans and rice, and burritos. Guests are welcomed with chips and salsa that have just the right amount of spice. The atmosphere is clean and welcoming, with large ceilings and cool paintings on the walls, and the background noise is low, making it easy to talk. However, the exterior could benefit from improved lighting to indicate it is open for business.
El Tarasco also has a veggie/vegetarian section, which is rare for restaurants in northern Wisconsin, attracting plant-based eaters. The food is served hot and fresh, often within ten minutes of ordering. Many guests have enjoyed their meals, with particular praise for the carne asada, which is described as tender and flavorful, and the lemon lime chicken, noted for its great citrus taste. The portions are generous, allowing for leftovers to be enjoyed later. While some have mentioned that the guacamole was unflavorful, the overall dining experience has been positive, with helpful and courteous servers enhancing the experience. The restaurant is recognized for its amazing food, including the Tarasco Nachos and delicious fajitas, making it a favorite Mexican restaurant for many.
