Wonderful food and service staff. They need to expand to the vacant space next door. After we were lucky enough to be seated new arrivals were waiting for seating. Unfortunately, several parties left.

Staff was upbeat and friendly. Food was just okay, IMO, but the place was packed and people were lined up to pick up their takeout.

Fresh tasting food with good prices and very kind personal. Thank you El Tapatio.
I took a friend to lunch. The service was lacking. Our food was not hot. The waitress never came back to check on us. When I received the check I said to her, our food was barely warm. You should let the kitchen know. Her reply was I've not had any other complaints. I have been eating there for several years and now I don't want to bring guests with me again.

They are great , the staff is awesome, the prices are also good, very clean dining area always smiling and ready to help, it's so good I drive from Fort Pierce to Vero beach because they are that good, no loud music so you can actually hear when talking beautiful art on the walls, I had a taco salad which is the bomb. I LOVE YOU EL TAPATIO .
Queso very runny. Cheese enchiladas were swimming in sauce. Only cheese present was shredded cheese on. No white cheese. Rice undercooked. Very disappointed and wont.be returning.

Traveled here due to good ratings. Well… Honestly, I’ve had far better. Ordered fajitas trio and it was nothing I’d crave to return to. Chorizo was good. Prices are average. Service was ok. Atmosphere is not here (Small diner type location). Service fee for CC used.

Absolutely LOVED everything we ordered! The queso was so good, the salsa was on the spicier side (which we love) + we added pico to make it chunkier & I highly recommend! I ordered the shredded chicken quesadilla, absolutely delicious! My boyfriend got the Combination Dinner Pick 3 as was suggested by our waitress. She recommended the chile relleno, flauta, & tostada. (We appreciated her suggestions as this was our first visit.) He said all were delicious but he was unable to finish all of it after filling up on the chips and queso! While we were there, the service was very fast & incredibly friendly, the food came out hot and fresh, & the phones kept ringing for to go orders. I can see why the VBNI Facebook group says they are one of the best local Mexican restaurants! We will definitely be going back.My only thing to consider would be the size of my party if we wanted to go out with friends. The area seems a little small if you ever wanted to host more than 6 people to a single table. However, the booths are set up perfect for date nights as a couple or with a couple friends.

Food was excellent, waitress was awesome. Giving it 3 stars bc their margarita was a wine base. They only serve beer/wine. Place is very small. Expect to wait especially if you have more than 4 ppl. I had enchiladas, hubby had a shrimp dish, friends had a combo meal and another had quesadillas, fajita burrito. Gauc was good and so was salsa.
