For 2 years now (Aug 2013), weekly, great food and margaritas and the tres leches ...kill me now and bury me in it!  It isn't pretentious staff , especial Ester knows her bar , are warm and genuine.

This is a typical neighborhood taquería , open for terrific breakfasts and for late-night Mexican food fixes . Read more

The bacon wrapped jalapeño should be on everyone's must try list if you haven't had it ????????????

Walter Mitchell

Margaritas are good. Salsa is good. Red is spicy . Love the stuffed jalapenos . Chili relleno was ordered and Betos plate.

Michael Earthman

Best Huevos Divorciados in town ! Two eggs , topped with red & green salsa (separated). Get it with beef , for a full meal.

Norma Ha

Really yummy and very reasonably priced! Got the cheese enchiladas and the queso , so delicious! The margaritas were a little strong.

Once a tiny restaurant , it expanded into a nearby florist shop and now takes up much of the strip center it's in. But the next door laundromat remains.

Glenn Barnett

Want TexMex this spot has some decent options, though it will not blow your socks off. The flavors are fair , but you could find better Tex-Mex experiences for a similar or even lower price elsewhere.

Patricia Runner

Service is great, food is AWESOME. The salsa verde is not spicy like other Tapatias so this is my go-to whenever I need my Mexican food fix !

Diego Avila

Great mango/strawberry margaritas with 100 años tequila . The they are the bomb!

Nicole

So much to choose from... choose the carne asada .

Wil Jeudy

Beef caldo is salty, but meaty & down-home good. Worth it, especially late night .

Cheapism

Cheap tacos , tortas , and hot queso . Their salsa is good and the margaritas are strong. La Tapatia is a popular place for people after the bars close. Read more

You can never go wrong with the margaritas here! Especially the mango !

Eat traditional here: order a burrito , gordita or taco a la carte. You won't be disappointed.

There's sone bad tips about service from 8 months ago, but they must've cleaned house because lately, the service has been great!

Don't know about horrible service!!! Julie is the best waitress ! She knows exactly what we want, and we have our food within 10 minutes of ordering. Super cheap too !
