Wow!! Another gem! Food was authentic and VERY tasty! Service was lightning fast and the staff were friendly and made us feel welcome. Prices were amazing as well, albeit worth so much more in our experience. One of the best Mexican cuisine we have had in some time! I highly recommend El Tarasco! If you are local, feel blessed to have such amazing food close by. If you are passing through, definitely stop for a quick bite! Thank you El Tarasco!!! Muy Bueno! La comida esta perfecto!! Muchas gracias!!

We stopped in for dinner while visiting the area and had a great experience! I was worried about having to wait since we arrived a bit after 5pm on a Saturday, but service was even faster than I could have hoped for. Everyone was friendly, the food was amazing, and we didn’t wait on anything. All around wonderful. Thanks so much!

I liked that the menu was under the clear table top but the writing was a bit too small to read. We used the QR code and pulled up the menu on iOS and on Android and still couldn’t see it well. Took a screen shot and still couldn’t see it well. Staff was great and the chili relleno from the combo plate menu was AMAZING! The chalupa was a taco shell with no meat (unless you pay extra) but was delicious and served with refried beans, white queso, and fried rice with lettuce. The quesadilla and taco from the combo menu was good for a quick, inexpensive meal. This place has that “hole-in-the-wall” feel but doesn’t feel cramped inside. It is wheelchair accessible but it would be a bit tight. Plenty of parking and clean bathrooms.

Ate here two weeks in a row good first time came following week burnt food over salted weird taste sent back after a few bites was told new cook we will bring another while waiting husband was getting nauseous so we paid bill and left 50 no manager to speak with both of us sick on way home called back twice finally spoke with manager rude refused to refund was nasty and said call the health department and complain. What a way to run a business we drove twice from Louisville to this place and he acts like we were the problem for complaining Don’t eat here

Holy cow… This is some of the best freaking Mexican food I have ever eaten. The employees are super friendly. The food was piping hot. The atmosphere is very chill. My food cam out pretty fast compared to other Mexican restaurants. I had the fajita nachos they were insanely good. I would love to visit this amazing restaurant again.

A wonderful Mexican restaurant out of the way in Shepherdsville Plaza. It’s located off Exit 117 if your heading north on I-65. You’ll find great food here with generous portions served that’ll have you coming back for more. The service was also outstanding. You won’t leave this place hungry! One of the best Mexican restaurants I’ve tried in Kentucky so far.

Was on our way home to Ohio and stopped here to grab a bite to eat. I’m glad we did. The food was delicious, and they celebrated our friends’ kids’ birthday with free dessert and whipped cream in the face, lol.
