Chowhound sounds an alert for food lovers to check out a new taqueria in downtown Marshall. Seriously? Downtown Marshall? Is there a downtown Marshall?

As a new resident to the small town of Marshall, I am absolutely beside myself with excitement upon eating at the recently opened French Broad Taqueria in Downtown Marshall. A small restaurant with a devotion to local farms and fresh ingredients- all perfectly prepared. Menu is very affordable with items like: fish tacos- local sunburst trout, fired with lemon aioli and pickled jalapeños carnitas tacos- braised pork with cilantro, onion and guajillo salsa…

They have a southern style bbq pork taco with plum bbq sauce, grilled flank steak with poblanos, braised brisket in a chile de arbol sauce and fried Alison farms chicken. They have soups, rice, beans, kale, salsas, guacamole, cheese dip and dessert. This place is so good, upon completing 2 tacos each, we went and ordered more. Be warned- 2 is not enough! I can not wait to try everything on the menu! Try it and you won’t be disappointed.

Sounds great!
