El Tarasco - Downingtown

Horchata! Horcata! Horcata! The best drink I have ever tasted. Update: last time I went here they stopped making homemade horchata. ?

Delicious authentic Mexican! The Quesadilla Tarasca with pork Al pastor was extremely good and I loved being able to have some solid deep fried Mexican food gluten free. The tamale could use a little less dough or more meat and a little more sauce but the flavor was good! Vegetarian options: Not too many, although my vegetarian dad was able to get a vegetarian Quesadilla Tarasca Dietary restrictions: They seem to have a decent awareness of gluten and have plenty of options with corn tortillas!

Excellent real Mexican food. Will be back!!Updated, stylish indoor decor. Nice.

Absolutely horrible. Ordered the taquitos with lettuce and tomato. This is what I received. The taquitos were filled with dry, flavorless chicken that had no marinade, seasoning or spices. Topped with a quarter sized whole piece of tomato. It tasted like my Irish grandmother made Mexican food. Never again.
