1942 Tacos and Tequila — Restaurant in Washington Court House

As someone who grew up in Arizona and has been on the hunt for authentic Mexican food in Ohio, I was completely blown away by this hidden gem at the Destination Outlets. This is, hands down, the closest thing to real Mexican food I’ve had since leaving Arizona.

From the first bite, I could tell this place takes pride in getting it right. The flavors were bold, fresh, and genuinely reminded me of the meals I used to enjoy back home.
