    Enchiladas

    This is the enchiladas super rancheras to go. I must say, it is the worst enchiladas I ever had.

    Combo with enchilada and chile relleno

    Good Mexican-American spot. If you're looking for authenticity, it might not totally hit the spot, but it's still delicious. Great Happy Hour deal for beers and margarita (-a lil under $9 for 32 oz marg) and the servers were all so nice. They bring the plate piping hot to the table. I ordered a 2 item combo plate with chile relleno made from poblano peppers and beef enchilada that came with rice and refried pinto beans. Food was okay, it's hard for me to judge chile rellenos in MN because I'm used to hatch green chile rellenos from growing up in NM, which is a more fragrant chile, but it satisfies my cravings until I can go back. Free chips and salsa were also provided and you can also order some queso with t as well. Overall, it's a spot I would go back to in the future. Staff was nice, there was a bar and drinks, and parking available since it's in a small strip mall.

    The check.

    A typical neighborhood family Mexican restaurant. I visited today (Thursday) around 5:00pm. When I arrived there was one four with four guests. By the time I left an hour later, an additional fifteen gusts had arrived. They have a full bar and interesting drink menu. A couple near me had ordered margaritas. They were very large. The menu is fairly large and resonably priced. The complimentary corn chip and sulsa were ordinary, I certainly would not pay separately. I order the burrito en recon. The entree was well prepared, made with fresh ingredients, and reasonably priced. The only negative was that the steak strips were over cooked.. i asked to have chopped raw onions be added and that did not happen. Over all a satisfying meal. The two table side hot sauces were Valintinas and a Habinera. The Habinera had a hard kick of heat. The Valentina was less hot and very flavorful, still spicy but, in my view, very good. The sevice was adequate but nothing special. Dr. Pollard August 11, 2022.

    I'm going to make this review simple and quick. Positives +: amazing value, authentic, chips and salsa (free of charge) on the table Negatives: the only negative I have is it could have been faster service, but it wasn't too bad of a wait considering it was cinco de mayo when I was there. Verdict: I would recommend to others and will be back!!

    Everything about this place is awesome! Food was great, music was great, and really good service. The food is super authentic, we had fish tacos and they were amazing! The sauce that comes with them is to die for and the beans are magical! Literally crazy awesome beans. 10/10 Fish Tacos

    Food was horrible, the cheese in the enchiladas tasted like cheese whiz and the red sauce tasted like canned not homemade. Will not go back.

    I had a nice tamle combination which many places find hard to prepare. And we had a smothered burrito. Glad they are open again.

    I'll preface this with the fact that I'm not a fan of tex-mex, strip mall style joints. That said,…read moreLa Tapatia was a great experience. The atmosphere was trying to be trendy with the neon signs, rustic-chic, exposed duct aesthetic. The server was amazing. Incredibly friendly and helpful with questions that our group had. The food was also way better than I feared it might be. I appreciated the build-your-own option for a lot of the dishes. I got a large salad with grilled shrimp and it was pretty good. The shrimp was flavorful and the salad bright. I used some of the cilantro salsa that came with the chips as dressing and it was great. It happened to be my birthday and they brought out some churros as a treat, which was really nice. The churros, however, were pretty bad. Super dense and chewy. The service definitely added an extra star and that waiter (I didn't get her name) should get some recognition. I would put this in the "group pleasing", "work happy hour" bucket of restaurants. I would never suggest but definitely wouldn't be upset if the group chose here.

    Here for the first time yesterday. Tried to make a dinner reservation but their reservation system…read moreonly offered 2:00pm. Tried calling to make a reservation but couldn't get anyone to answer. So 2:00pm it was. It was busy and only a few tables were open. Fun drunk menu and lots of local and Mexican beer options. Shared chips and salsa and Guac and both of us got two tacos and dessert and a drink. $40 a piece which wasn't bad. Would definitely go back.
