Jim B. reviewed this dish about 1 year ago and loved it!
I dig taqueria food, and whenever I get a chance to go to a new location I welcome the opportunity. I must have driven by Las Tarascas hundreds of times, and I finally stopped for lunch yesterday...and I am glad I did! As I walked in, I spotted the taqueria, which is in the middle of the small grocery store. The dishes for the day were displayed which made for easy decision-making. Tacos, stewed dishes and caldo (soup) were some of the offerings, but the pupusa caught my eye. Go to the register and pay for the platillo, and hand the small slip to the taqueria attendant. Spanish is the preferred language, but there's help nearby if you don't habla. My pupusa with lengua was quite good, and the gordita with mushroom filling was absolutely delicious. I also tried their tamale, and it was superb. There are a few salsa on the counter to choose from, and I found them to be tasty and freshly made. This is not tex-mex...it is for real, authentic mexican cooking, done right by folks who has been doing it for a long time. I can't wait to go back to try some other dishes. Three of five stars!
