The location, at the far end of a small strip mall, is easy to miss if you haven't been there previously. But it's more than worth the small amount of effort it takes to find it. If you love Mexican food prepared in Tex-Mex style, this might quickly become your go-to Mexican restaurant. Very attentive wait staff, which I loved. The interior is decorated beautifully. But the star of the show here is the food. One of the best Chile rellenos I've had, here in the Northwest. This restaurant I rate five star, straight across the board.

We wanted a place like this to enjoy for dinner. Enjoyed the chips and salsa choices. I had the traditional Mexican enchiladas. The chicken was not as good as the cheese. My partner had the two burrito combo. The burritos were just meat and cheese. Rice and beans on the side. No veggies or sour cream. The rice and beans were what I was hoping for.
Dietary restrictions: Good choices for GF.

I left feeling so impressed! The food was delicious, all the staff worked together to ensure our chips and salsa were full, dishes were cleared and our drinks were topped off at all times. I ordered a virgin margarita and it was awesome! Everyone was so friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back again!

The bartender is horrible. I ordered two raspberry margarita and got blackberry, ordered a second raspberry and again got blackberry. Then when I gave my credit card he changed me 43.00 for two margaritas. When I told him, he said, no, he could not fix it a then gave my receipt to my friend and vise versa and said "it's ok". I said, no it's not. My friend paid her bill which was 43.00 but she was charged 21.00 and I was charged 43.00. Gabriel even asked me if my cc was the one with the dog on it and I said, yes. And he still mixed them up and refused to fix it.
Another outstanding meal from El Tapatio's. The service was outstanding, the food was delicious. I had the chicken tostada and enchilada. If I want Mexican food this is the first place I go.

Save yourself the calories and disappointment. Very perplexed at the decent ratings, as this is NOT the El Tapatios that was so good many years ago. To start they brought my child her food, ten minutes later brought out 2 more plates, 1 of which was completely incorrect and had to be sent back..10 minutes later they brought back the last party members plate, as well as as the corrected one. The plate that was remade was cold, cheese not melted, enchilda sauce tasted like colored water..The ground beef tacos are better quality at the local taco bell.. could not even stomach the mushed grease that was supposed to be meat. I genuinely can make better tasting authentic Mexican food myself..I've never looked around for salt, pepper or hot sauce (no where to be found) at a Mexican restaurant just to add some flavor.. if you can't handle the traditional flavors of Mexican food, than this is the place for you.. I will however, scratch this place off the list of places to dine in..won't be giving it a second chance to make me sick again 🤢
