Review by Noemi Yost

El Tarasco is a cozy gem tucked away in Chicago! ๐ŸŒŸ I had the caldo de res, and those three large handmade tortillas were a game-changer. The salsa that accompanied my chips had the perfect kick - absolutely delicious! I also loved their sopes de asada; one was enough to fill me up!

The atmosphere is casual and family-friendly, and I appreciated the attentive service. The tamarindo drink was refreshing too! If you're looking for great Mexican comfort food, definitely check this place out. Can't wait to return for their red pozole... ๐ŸŒฎโœจ
