El Tacuba

My first visit to this restaurant was nothing short of impressive and I will undoubtedly return. The beautiful decorated dining area complete with plenty of natural light and clean environment, set the tone for a wonderful meal. Our waitress was knowledgeable and provided excellent recommendations accompanied by exceptional service. The menu offered a wide range of Tapas,each prepared to perfection. The flavors were outstanding, and the presentation was impressive. If you have room for dessert, be sure to try a secret family recipe, which adds a fascinating cultural element to the dining experience and the restaurant’s history and experience. The restaurant’s history and heritage are evident in the owners story, which was shared by a the waitress who was a charming young lady. I highly recommend this restaurant anyone who seeking a memorable dining experience, the city’s unique character and the restaurant’s excellent value made to visit well worth the investment.

We previously lived in Medford and had hoped this restaurant would open before we moved but unfortunately we were already gone when they opened. We were lucky to stop in today and we were really pleased with the food, atmosphere, and service! We had some great fresh guacamole with chips and a fried plantain stuffed with cheese. Both were extremely delicious. My spouse had huevos divorciados and I had the pulpo jaqueton. Both dishes were extremely good ...my octopus was especially good and cooked perfectly! If you're near Medford, this restaurant is a must visit. You will not be disappointed!

This place is literally 5mins drive away from our place and I am surprised that I didn't know about this place earlier . It's one of the only few good restaurants in the area. We are vegetarians and thus we had very limited options on their menu, but ther server was really nice and she helped us understand the dishes which she could make without meat and offered us more options. We tried their Ellote callejero in appetizers and it was delicious. We tried their Jarochas Tortada and it was nice crunchy and light. It's definitely good for just 1 person. We had also ordered Planato macho but the chef I think accidentally added Meat in ours dish which was a little disappointing. Since we absolutely dont eat it but the server was really sweet she apologized a lot and offered the veg version of same dish and also veg empanadas on the house. All these dishes are tapas style so you would need variety of dishes if you are really hungry. Finally we tried their Berenjena A La veracruzana which was my favorite dish of the night. It was nice tangy. The server said they I trying to add more veg dishes on the menu which will be really nice since their Beans also have meat fat. It would be nice to have atleast rice n beans not cooked in meat fat / broth. I also hope they add a few vegan dishes on the menu since a lot of people are now moving to vegan diet so it would be really nice to have some vegan options on the menu. The reason why I am giving them 4 in food is because they have very limited veg/vegan options on the menu and I also feel the portion of each dish is not proportionate to the amount of money it costs. I hope they either increase the portion or reduce the dish cost a bit.

Amazing food. I got the Camarones Machos, excellent adobo sauce with well cooked shrimp. The Michelada was tasty, nice amount of spice. Family-owned business, and you can feel that ambience with the care of the food, service, atmosphere. The decor is also really great.
