Chile relleno is my fave. Great patio. Dozens of beers on tap, including Fat Tire and Negra Modelo. Get a special megarita!

My family and I frequent El Tapatio for their authentic Mexican fare and friendly, quick service. The salsa is spicy and their tamales are delicious. It's a family favorite.

Well alcohol was good. I ordered a combo and half was it ok. My smothered burrito with carnitas was good, but my taco and tostada was sopping wet and couldn't support itself. There's better Mexican!!

The margaritas are huge. Make sure they tell you how much is in each size before you order.

Try the cóctel tres palos. Causes drools after the first taste. So delicious.

The chile rellanos are made with mozzerella cheese instead of monterey jack! Just doesn't taste right to me!!!
