" First time visiting and I was very impressed! I ordered the enchiladas with mole sauce, and they were heavenly! Definitely made with authentic ingredients. The restaurant had a cozy feel with decorations that highlighted Mexican culture. The staff was friendly but might have been a little overwhelmed as they forgot my drink. Nonetheless, the food was memorable enough for me to want to come back again! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food at La Tapatia is solid, but I think it’s slightly overrated. I had the carne asada plate, which was decent but not exceptional. The staff was attentive, although it took a bit of time for my order to arrive. The vibes in the restaurant are nice, a chill spot for dinner. Overall, I enjoyed the meal but don’t have any burning desire to rush back. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a pleasant surprise La Tapatia was! Every dish we tried had genuine flavors that transport you straight to Mexico. The tacos were plentiful and the beans perfectly seasoned. The waitstaff was polite and very attentive without being intrusive. To top it off, we got a huge serving that left us feeling satisfied and happy. I recommend checking this place out if you’re craving authentic Mexican food! " (*Curated Review*)
