    Shrimp empanadas
    Manuel N Francileine C.

    Saw ads on IG and decided we needed to try. The only other place we've had a molcajete is down south so obviously had to try here since it's closer. Another review mentioned a bad smell when walking in. I'd have to agree but once we got seated we didn't even notice. You have to remember it is an older establishment that's been renovated. The smell was more like old plumbing mixed in with cleaning solution ‍ Micheladas were delicious! I don't like beer but I'd order these micheladas any day. They literally just got their liquor license the day we went so didn't have a bartender or a fully stocked bar yet. Shrimp empanadas were also on point. The shell was made of masa (which I'm not used to) and had shrimp in every bite. Most places we've been too was mostly cheese with maybe 1-2 shrimps in the whole thing. Sauce they served was on the spicy side (for me at least) but complimented the empanadas well Oyster shots were also good. The waitress had told us that the oysters were cooked but not the case. I was a little wary at first but the sauce they were in was good and the oysters tasted as fresh as some shooters we've had along the coast The molcajete was just as good as the one we've had down south. The beef was a little dry if eaten on its own but not bad when wrapped in a tortilla n dipped in the sauce. Chicken was juicy and tender and the shrimps were of decent size and had a sweet taste to them. Our waitress was sweet and attentive and patient as we asked her questions. In fact, all the staff was helpful. When we got there there weren't many people but as it got busy I did notice the wait staff spread a little thin so I can see how some say service wasn't good. Either way we had a good experience and just found a new place to add to our regular list of restaurants

    On a rainy day ...Menudo

    Service is nice. Waitresses very hospitable. Ambiance , tv and games on. Music in the bar adjacent to restaurant. Nice view with windows.Puro Mexicano Aqui! Food is superb. Had fish tacos another time delicious. Price is very reasonable. Salsa and chips!

    The bar area

    This was our first time here because we had a craving for seafood . The ambience was very comfortable , well lit and spacious. The place was packed on a Sunday afternoon. Our server was very attentive and everything we ordered was delicious my only complaint would be that shrimp in our our seafood bag was slightly overcooked but still delicious none the less. We will definitely be coming back again with friends

    Camarones empanizado : Breaded shrimp

    Went on valentine's day around 5, besides it being busy waiters were very attentive and food didn't take long to come out considering it being such a busy day. Food had good portions sizes & very delicious & very nicely plated. The place was also decorated very on theme for the occasion; valentine's day. I loved it will definitely come back !

I asked for a variety of sauces, they had four and it was all so good, i even poured the habenero on the very top, which normally is too hot but it was all soooooo good. beef was tasty and not to chewy, good quality, great amount, not alot but not skimpy either and it filled my craving 100%. and Ruben the man at the window was great and finished with I appreciate you............great service, good timing, great food. Get it?

    I think out of anything i want to get out of this review is how hurt i am as customer. This isn't a…read morereview about food, it's about an incident that occurred this afternoon. I had a delivery driver who also happened to pick up my orders from here. We got to talking about other spots in town and I mentioned this place and he says, "ohhh you're THAT Frank". Automatically I'm like "uh oh" lol. Now before you start wondering "two sides to every story"; here's mine. I order a burrito combo with a large limonada. I ask for my burrito with just meat and rice, sometimes onions. I ask for it to be grilled. I asked for (2) to (3) serrano peppers on the side. Before they "disappeared" off of GrubHub, they had a button on their page for sauces. They don't charge for them on the app and don't have a quantity cap, so i usually ask for around (4) to (5) green and the same in habanero. The burritos are big and I'm a salsa kind of guy lol. If 10 sauces overall is too much, then that's fine. At least give me something lol. I've been given (0) or (1) at times. My burrito is 50/50 sometimes grilled, sometimes not "mostly not", they will forget my drinks from time to time. When i ask the driver, they say they weren't given a drink. My food has come cold, the meat has been chewy and fatty. I've had to get refunds on orders because of the quality. So I always ask the drivers to make sure my drinks are there and my sauces are in the bag. But here I've been, coming back cause i was genuinely a happy customer more times than not. Then to randomly hear from a delivery driver who's picked up your orders from here before, you've been talked "sh$t' about. So much that he even contemplated telling me "DONT ORDER FOOD FROM HERE". This is a place you've given business to on a regular basis! It's disheartening and it hurts. My last review was even a good one lol. Needless to say I'm not coming back. Pretty messed up too, cause i was happy to see them come to town since i first encountered them in Bakersfield. Oh well.. talk all the crap you want now, hope you read this. I know one customer ain't no love lost. But now everyone will know how they're being treated behind their backs. Better places in town to find.

    I am from Southern California and I mention this to say that I wish they were located closer to me…read more. I found them because they were close to my air bnb and had a good rating and I see why. Everything was good. For dinner I had the carne asada burrito it was one of the best burritos I've ever had. Everything was so fresh and the carne was flavorful not big and lined with fat like most places serve. My family got a quesadilla plate, enchilada plate, and a quesabirria. The service was amazing the girl at the window was so friendly and answered all questions. It is outdoor seating but when it's cold they have the heat lamps so you will not be cold. I absolutely loved the green salsa with avocado chunks in it. Everything is 10/10 I went back the next morning for breakfast with my family and I had the carne asada sopes. Others in my family had the birria (that came in a bowl), Gordita, menudo, quesabirria, and wonderful drinks. In case you are a review person and reviews help to make your decision my review still does not do this place justice. If you get lost like I did because I am not from the area and my gps was probably off just call them and she will give you information like she did me. Also other reviews mentioned not having their food. I checked my bag before I left because I knew I was hungry and it took me all of 15 seconds. P.S. I devoured my food so fast I didn't even think to take pictures, but again you will not be disappointed!

    Food is delicious. The menudo has great flavors, tortillas are fresh. Definitely one of the best…read moreflavors in town. Will be back!!

For 1 burrito and 1 taco with tip, came out to around $33. Don't do delivery from here. The Burrito was not very good. The meat was almost like ground beef in texture but also non existent at the same time. I tasted more beans than rice but even then, it was more of a soupy burrito with a tortilla that you had to rip at and hope each bite wouldn't undo the whole burrito. There was some kind of salsa inside it that wasn't apart of the description. It gave it an off flavor. Al Pastor taco was meh. The corn tortillas tasted homemade, which was nice. But the meat was stringy, kind of fatty and an off color almost a light orange. It tasted better than the asada but still wasn't very good. I do appreciate they followed my request for extra salsa, but these packs look like they come from a frozen dinner you get at the store. Absolutely off putting. The flavor was "ok" but nothing special. Overall, not worth it. $33 and I was left with an upset stomach. I had such high hopes! I haven't been in a long time and was hoping it would have been an amazing experience. I was wrong. I gave 3 stars cause I do appreciate them following the special instructions most other restaurants don't. But that still can't justify the food.

Service: We were greeted immediately after entering the restaurant. The greeter was super polite. She ended being our waitress. We were seated immediately and had a menu, water, and chips and salsa almost as fast as we sat down. Drinks: Their drinks were awesome and delicious! Definitely an A+ for taste and presentation. So many alcohol options to choose from. Food: The food was very good. Chips and salsa are always a great addition to any Mexican restaurant visit. I give them a B on presentation though. Although the food was delicious, my plate looked like it was just thrown together. We hear this restaurant has a second location so my wife and I are excited about trying the other location soon. I recommend this place as it has been one of the better restaurants we've visited. Thank you El Tarasco for the wonderful service.
