LOVED the food here, you get such a bang for your buck. The people are lovely and welcoming, it feels very authentic and definitely a must do if you’re visiting Manhattan beach! They have vegetarian options 🙂 They recommended the steak taco for my partner and he loved it!

At least for the wet burrito they give you a nice big ol portion. And it’s not even that expensive. Taste good too, nothing to write home about but it’s good and consistent. They got a little roof place to eat too that is kinda nice. But there’s usually a bunch of bugs up there. Tostadas came with the burrito too. I got the super deluxe

I used to go here 40 years ago when I lived around the corner. It was the place to go for a very late night out! They currently stay open till 230am Thursday through the weekend. My go to is the carne asada burrito “mojado” (wet). Tasty sauce!

El Tarasco’s is right near the Pacific Ocean in a popular area of Manhattan Beach. It is a little place with counter seating for 4 or 5 people. They also have take out and delivery. The place is very small and not at all fancy. It is authentic and has super Mexican food you will love at reasonable prices, unlike most of the eateries in Manhattan Beach.

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.

I’ve been coming here since I was a kid. The food never changes even after 25 years! The server that was there when I was a kid is still there after 31 years and he’s still just as amazing as always! From the cook to the server they give the best service!!

The food was absolutely amazing! It came out in a timely manner, the staff was very friendly, the food tasted delicious! I was in town for a trip and stopped here as my last meal. It was worth the wait <3 definitely coming back next time I'm in town!

I’ve been eating here ever since I was a kid. Visiting after several years I was incredibly happy to see that not only had nothing changed, but in fact, the tastes had somehow improved! The service in the tightly packed, yet cozy, Manhattan Beach location was stellar. This is the best burrito I have ever eaten.

It’s a very small hole-in-the-wall place to get amazing authentic Mexican food! The breakfast burritos are incredible and I loved the enchiladas. The chips and salsa are also great. Prices are reasonable. You could eat there but there are only a few chairs so plan for the food to be take out!
