EL TARASCO MEXICAN RESTAURANT – Mexican
On Pine Island Road in Cape Coral, El Tarasco keeps a full bar running alongside a Mexican kitchen split into separate lunch and dinner menus. The shredded chicken chimichanga and a carnitas dinner plate are standouts, backed by milanesa, standard tacos and a hearty breakfast burrito to open the day. Guacamole is made fresh to order, rice and beans are seasoned well, and refried beans are still cooked the traditional way with lard. Chile rellenos and cheese enchiladas both draw praise for generous cheese. Margaritas and Mexican draft beer round out a bar regulars say pours a genuinely good drink.
