Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

The family enjoyed Sunday lunch here today. The food is certainly a step above what you typically find at a Tex-Mex restaurant. The portions were HUGE and every dish at our table was a hit. I don't think you can go wrong here. We will be back!

Best Mexican in T-Town, the food is beyond awesome!!! And the service is pretty nice would eat here all day everyday if I could

The restaurant is a part of this hideous looking plaza. The service was great though and I didn't have to wait long for my taco salad. I got chicken and ground beef in my salad. The chicken was really bland but tasted fresh and was in shreds. I can't remember what the ground beef tasted like. That can never be that great for a restaurant if I can't remember what the food tasted like. However, the tortilla chips have probably been my favorite ones so far in Tuscaloosa. The salsa was too spicy for me! I'm a wimp so basically it was in the corner of my salad at this point.

Tacos al carbon are great. Fast service and really good food.

I was super excited about picking up lunch here Sunday after reading all of the reviews that this is the most authentic and tasty Mexican place int T'town. It was fine, but going in with high expectations, I was pretty disappointed. The flauta was good. The tamale was okay. The tortilla soup was just plain odd, or at least not at all what I expected. It was like soupy refried beans with cheese and a few tortilla strips. While I wouldn't refuse to go back, I probably wouldn't go out of my way to go back either.

Among myriad "Mexican" restaurants in the Tuscaloosa area, Los Tarascos is a good choice. The service is friendly, the portions are generous and the decor is southwestern and fun. There's one burrito on the menu (somewhere around #36, perhaps?) that is ENORMOUS. It completely fills a platter and will do justice to any ravenous appetite (or two or three less-than-ravenous appetites...) that engages this behemoth in gastronomic battle. And if you like thrift stores, the America's Thrift Store next door is a pretty good one, just to throw that out there.

Still love their large beers and some of the menu items. And, not a bad choice for Mexican in Tuscaloosa. I strongly prefer the local taco truck(s) and Lope'z.

The food looked good, taste was BAD. If a mexican restaurant does not know how to make decent salsa then what can i say. It was worst salsa & Chips ever. Bitter in taste, not sure if that day they had or it is always like that (not going back ever again). I also ordered a Veggie Quessedillas, Rice and beans. Below avg taste. I asked the waitor if I could taste very little amount of guacamole. At this point, if he was going to charge me for it, he should have let me known. He brought VERY LITTLE guacamole, which tasted bad as well, and he charged me for it.

The staff is always very friendly, and the food always comes out great. Probably the best Mexican in town.

We tried Los Tarascos, even though it had "mixed reviews", because it was close to our hotel and we wanted Mexican food. So glad we did. Our food was delicious and our waiter, Carlos, was exceptional.

I have had difficulty finding decent mexican food since moving to Alabama. This is one that is a solid choice for my Mexican fix. The restaurant is pretty large and has a lot of seating as well as a bar. Margaritas are decent and pretty inexpensive ($17.50 for a pitcher) and the tortilla chips and salsa are excellent! I ordered enchiladas verde which was delicious and the portion was huge so I was not able to finish it all. Prices are decent as well. The restaurant is casual, and kid of divey and is located in a shopping plaza with other not-so-nice establishments. But once you get past the look, it is delicious. Would recommend.

Los Tarascos was a bland and flavorless representation of Mexixan cooking. It involved uncooked Wal-mart tortillas and not even salted (much less spiced) ground beef. You think its a deal, but go home with to go boxes of gross food and the feeling that someone stole twenty bucks.

This is sad to say, but my family eats here at least twice a month and have done so for years. They are "our" restaurant for Mexican food in Tuscaloosa. I like Lupes but get a little claustrophobic. The staff is very friendly and there is usually only a short wait to be seated. The Mexican tacos are my favorite but I also love the quesadilla tarascos and fajitas. Good margaritas too! Great place for kids and they try hard to quickly accommodate groups. I'd give them 5 stars if you could call ahead for group seating or Bama game day reservations. Sit back and enjoy your meal and put away your cell phone; cell/internet service in there is almost non-existent! Sometimes, it's hard to even "check-in" on Facebook!

Who knew that Tuscaloosa could have such a great Mexican restaurant. I am from the Southwest and I thought we had a monopoly on the good Mexican food. Seriously delightful. Portions were great, strong flavors, and fresh taste. Here are the scores: Carne Asada plate: 9/10 Chile rellenos (chicken): 8.5/10 Chips and salsa: 8/10

We've been coming to this place for years and it's my favorite Mexican in Tuscaloosa. They have the best salsa in town, and the prices are amazing. You can get a burrito a la carte, with chips and salsa and a water and be under $5. Very good fajitas, burritos, steak nachos, chimichangas. They change up the drink specials but there's usually a good deal on draft beer and they have excellent Margaritas. If you have the stomach for it the Burrito Brava is very good and huge!

What a gem to find open on Memorial Day otherwise known as a day no restaurants are open and we are road tripping across country. The food was good and freshly prepared. We got take out: Mexican style tacos with chorizo and steak, soft tacos with grilled chicken and a horchatta. While I wasn't super impressed by the steak. The chorizo and the chicken were well seasoned and more than made up for what the steak was lacking. The salsa was good. Not very spicy which is good for most tastes, personally I like heat. The horchatta was a good add to the meal. Had the perfect blend of cinnamon and vanilla. The to-go service was pleasant. Not over the top great but it was take-out & deserved a solid pleasant. But most impressively my boyfriend has a slightly confusing taco order and this place of all the places we have ever ordered tacos at actually got it right... A big round of applause to them. If I lived here I could see myself frequenting this place.
