El Tapatio Mexican Restaurant offers delicious food that tastes like the south, with good service. Located on 53rd and Wadsworth, it is a local treasure where flavor, warmth, and fast service come together. Although there might be some issues with the timing of online orders, the food is worth the wait. The average meal now runs about $22, but the generous portions and bold flavors make it worth every dollar.
Customers have noted that the hostess might not be the most welcoming, but the warm and genuine service from the crew, including Alma, Maria, Julio, and Monica, makes guests feel like they are home. While there’s a suggestion to make homemade tortillas instead of using packaged ones, the food still provides a satisfying Mexican dining experience. Whether dining with family, enjoying a solo meal, or meeting friends, El Tapatio brings energy, comfort, and flavor, with favorites like the smothered Mexican hamburger and the Carnitas plate.
