" Disappointed with my experience. My burrito arrived cold and the beans were undercooked. My server was nice, but it was hard to get her attention during the busy hour. Still, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and I noticed other tables were pleased. Maybe I just ordered poorly. I may try something else next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Tapatio has solidified its title as my favorite Mexican restaurant! The chicken mole was delightful, and their margaritas never disappoint! The service team is friendly and always checks in. The only downside was that the restaurant was crowded during my last visit, leading to a longer wait than expected. Nonetheless, the food is worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about El Tapatio! Every time I visit, I'm welcomed by friendly staff and the delicious scent of authentic Mexican cuisine. I ate the barbacoa tacos and they were just bursting with flavor! Also, don’t forget to try their house-made salsas, which add that perfect kick. The atmosphere is cozy and lively—definitely a great place for a dinner with friends or family! " (*Curated Review*)

" Each time I go to El Tapatio, I'm amazed at the consistent quality. Their mole sauce is delicious! I’m impressed with the vast menu with varied options for everyone. The ambiance is festive, which adds to the experience. The service is usually quite efficient, though there’s been an occasional longer wait. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" I used to love El Tapatio, but my last visit was disappointing. The food was lukewarm, and my order was wrong. I can’t fault the staff too much; they tried to help, but I noticed that the restaurant was very busy. I hope to give them another chance since I’ve had great experiences in the past. " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, my recent visit to El Tapatio was not what I had hoped. The service was a bit sluggish, and the food didn't have the authentic flavor I was expecting. I found the rice to be bland, and the green sauce mildly interesting. On a brighter note, the margaritas were refreshing, just slightly overpriced. I might give them another chance sometime. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Tapatio has been my top choice for Mexican food in Muskegon! The food is bright and bursting with flavor. However, my last visit, the service was slow, and the chips tasted stale. Still, I can’t get enough of their enchiladas. I’ll certainly keep returning because the food quality is generally superb regardless of the occasional wait time. " (*Curated Review*)
