Stopped for dinner at El Tarascó before flying out of LAX. Everything was delicious!! Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area. Service was quick and all of the employees were friendly and welcoming. Prices are fair and portions are huge! Vibes were perfect, with counter style service and great music

There is nothing better than el Tarasco, rosecrans Manhattan beach. I come back to socal twice a year to visit family and we never go back without stopping here. The chicken taco is the best in the world…the Chile relleno is also amazing. make sure to order a side of guacamole, their habenero salsa and cheese quesadilla. If u want to branch out carne asada tacos or the junior burrito deluxe.. ,cant go wrong. Sitting at bar stools 300 feet from the beach at a genuine taco stand that’s out of this world checks all the boxes. Bring your appetite morning or late night.

Incredible Mexican food with fantastic fast service. It may not look like much when you see it, but this little restaurant will serve you some of the best Mexican food you have ever tried. Everything is prepared on site and prepared fast. There is counter seats for about a dozen people inside and picnic tables above for seating. You can see from my picture that I loved the meal. I had a tostada and my wife had enchiladas. Both were great! Highly recommend if you are in Manhattan Beach.

Unfortunately, this was probably the worst Mexican food I ever had. I ordered a “taco burrito,” hard shell taco, and soft shell taco.
EVERYTHING I ordered was DRIPPING in grease, to the point it looked like I had ordered a wet burrito instead. The tacos were dripping in grease as well. And to make matters worst, NONE of the food had any real seasoning. I had to add salt to the food once I got home, but that didn’t help. The greasy sogginess literally made me queasy — I mean, grease was literally pouring out the food. Because I didn’t want to waste my money, I tried my best to eat some, but quickly had to stop. So disappointed, because based on reviews I thought this place had good food.
The only thing good was the salsa, and the guy who serviced me was friendly. Food was terrible though.

Phenomenal!! Flavors are so good, tacos are huge! Service is awesome! The guy is so nice. Food is so fast. Just what we needed after getting back from traveling. We were so hungry and could not have been happier! They give you 1/4 of a lime with you tacos which I feel like I never see, always just little tiny dry wedges, not here. Loved that touch. Salsa was amazing, super cilantro forward

Heard about this place from a stranger we met at the airport. So glad he shared it with us.
The salsa is the best I’ve ever had. The fish tacos were amazing and the super deluxe burrito was great as well.
I would recommend to anyone and will stop back anytime we are in town. Thanks El Tarasco!

This place came highly recommended by our family. It did not disappoint. It’s close to Manhattan Beach. They can only seat about 10-12 people. The service is quick, the food is good, the portions are big and the prices are great too. The El pastor quesidilla was awesome.

I love Mexican cuisine and I’ve traveled extensively to satisfy my need for said comfort food. I think I’ve found the epicenter of the beautiful enchilada and burrito but most importantly the taquito.
The food was pure bliss, service was over the top and the establishment was everything i wanted and more in a hole in the wall taquitery (if that’s a term)
We all walked away soooo satisfied and impressed that we walked back to our vrbo in silence.
Thank you for the 90 minute trip in time back to 1970’s Mexico and Mamma’s Hacienda.
I’m greatly appreciative.
