El Tarasco Restaurant

It's always so good. I do take out and the food is ready and waiting at the desired time. Large servings with lots of flavor. Love the added chips and salsa. Friendly service is an added plus.

I've been coming here for years, how do I not have a review? Back when I surfed with some regularity at El Porto this was my post surf grind. Truth be told, it was also my spot after doing the bar circuit. They have a rooftop deck which is fantastic on a sunny afternoon.

This place rocks and if you are looking for an authentic Mexican food in Manhattan Beach them El Tarasco is the place to go. No frills, inexpensive, delicious hole in the wall.

I love their whole tortilla chips and homemade salsa. On my last visit I ordered the machaca burrito... needless to say it was very good.

I highly recommend trying this place.

First time visiting this amazing and cozy place! As soon as we walked in we were very welcomed ! We didn't even take a seat and they were already asking and prepping our drinks ! The food was Hot and very delicious! The beans are so flavorful ! They have the best mouthwatering burrito ! The tostadas they serve with the salsa are appetizing that I asked an order to go ! I highly recommend this place even if it's limited in space inside ! A little date for two would be great !

I come here all the time and it never gets old. The California burrito with grilled chilies and extra French fries always gets me there. Staff is awesome too!

So quick, friendly service. Delicious and huge burrito. The complementary chips and salsa were also very good. Enjoyed sitting at this small counter and took in the atmosphere while enjoying this great food. $17 with tax & tip as it was the special of the day. Amazing neighborhood to start to "walk it off" on the strand.

A stupid amount of food for a reasonable price. If you're craving Mexican in Manhattan Beach El Porto Area, make sure to check out El Tarascó. This joint is open until 2 am. The service is fast and the food comes hot. The wet burrito was a solid 2 meals.

We picked up my Son @ LAX and wanted to take my whole family to the place my Dad took me to as a kid in the late 70's. Our food was amazing as usual server was on point. He kept our drink full and the chips n Salsa too!
Be back real soon Yo!

Hole in the wall with amazing burrito!!! The staff is very nice and accommodating as well. It's a small place so not too many places to sit inside the restaurant. However, there are table benches on the rooftop.

I tried the carne asada burrito- it came with carne asada, pico del gallo and guacamole. The chips and salsa are also amazing as well. Simple and delicious.

Parking can be challenging. Metered parking is available. Although, if you park up a slight hill you may want to turn your wheels since the city will give you a parking ticket if you don't.

Atmosphere - Cute hole in the wall restaurant with limited indoor seating.

Service - Friendly staff. Quick service.

Taste - Best authentic Mexican restaurant. We love the carnitas burrito and beef enchiladas.

Price - Above Average but worth it

In what seems like an area of overpriced food, this place is a lifesaver. Asked them if they could make a wet burrito with shrimp and they had no problem accommodating. I wish I was able to try more of the menu but I was too full when I was done. The guys working the kitchen were friendly and welcoming. I'm looking forward to coming back.
