Reviews for Taqueria Pato Azul in La Crosse, WI
From reading all the reviews, Taqueria Pato azul is by far, far from authentic. It\'s more of a Mexican fusion instead. Food is... over priced and bland. More seasoning could make the food taste so much better.\n\n$4.50 for a mini taco is a lot to ask for.The only thing we enjoyed was the beef cheek taco but not $4.50 worth. Very disappointed with the ceviche. I had asked thewaitress if the shrimp was raw marinades and cooked in lime juice (the authentic way) and she said it was. However the shrimpwere little cooked shrimp and ceviche had no flavor whatsoever. More lime juice and jalapeños would make it so muchbetter.\n\nFor a new restaurant, I wish them well and hopefully add more seasoning to their food. Read more
Interesting and reasonably priced menu. Very busy on an early Friday evening. Wine was a little pricey for type of restaurant... but food was quite reasonable and unique as is their Rochester restaurant. Nice decor. Not fancy but functional. Will come back. Read more
Atmosphere was nice, service was good (not a fan of the using phone to order and pay), tacos, queso, and ceviche were fine. We... had the Diablo shrimp, pastor, and asada tacos. I do not enjoy the taste of bay shrimp?used in ceviche and tacos, so just not mypreference. Asada tacos were very oily and missing some added texture. Pastor didn?t taste like much. With all the quality tacoplaces in town, not sure I?ll return for tacos. But am looking forward to the noodles. Oh, not super kid friendly. Read more
Amazing atmosphere, wonderful and attentive bartender. I?ve been wanting to try birria with ramen and was super thrilled when I... saw it on their menu! Very fair prices, we spent less than we would elsewhere which is what I?d like to see more of! Incrediblyfast service as well. Read more
Very good food, staff is attentive, smart to have them try dishes so they know how menu items taste & know what to tell there... customera if the question is asked.\nLove the deco, all around a wonderful addition to downtown La Crosse. Read more
The restaurant is lively and feels so cheerful with all of the unique, colorful decor. The Mexican margarita was excellent and... the butternut squash taco had fantastic textures and flavors. I can\'t wait to eat here again! Read more
Amazing authentic Mexican food with a twist!! The drinks are also very good! And when in Rochester go to their sister restaurant... the Bleu Duck kitchen. Read more
We had a great experience here. The staff was friendly and helpful, everything we ate was fantastic. No it is not \"authentic\"... whatever that means, But it is done with a take on authentic flavors and styles with cool fun twists.\n\nWe started with quesoand chips. The dip was great.\n\nAll the tacos we tried were delicious they seem small for the price but with the awesomeingredients and the work that goes into making each component, it makes sense. Some people are used to cheap fast food tacos anddon\'t understand this.\n\nI couldn\'t pass up the elote dog which sounded so absurd I needed to try it. It was tasty and thesausage tasted of quality. my only complaint it that the sauce soaked into to the bun and it fell a part mid way. Maybe itshould be severed on the side so the customer can apply it at the time of eating it.\n\nThe ranch beans are a must. Trust me.Perfectly seasoned.\n\nAlso the best margarita I\'ve ever had. Don\'t past up the cocktails. They know what they\'re doingbehind the bar.\n\nAlso the decor and vibe is cute and fun.\n\nCan\'t wait to go again. Read more
