Good.
Ryan S.

La-Plaza Tapatia to the moon!!! (Rocket Emoji times three.) It may seem a stretch to theme a side eatery attached to a Mexican grocery to the latest stock market craze but considering that this amazing stonk of a place hangs inside the shadow of Hollywood casino--'casino' an apt word for the market has become--the metaphor is germane; the grub here is the most bullish buy on the Mexicana scene--it is the best Broad Street bet in the eastside market. (Cue the Cathy Wood thumbnail.) I came here to meet fellow swing trader Mike G to lord over him my Plug Power winnings porn and his lack of following my picks. Lol. This restaurant was his idea, and I, usually bearish on Mexican food, have decided to diversify my palate portfolio and agreed. As said this place is on East Broad behind a highly volatile parking lots; lots of ups and down with the potholes but the savvy gormandizer knows to buy the dips and have diamond hands to reach the eventual trendies inside. You'll find this joint just inside the grocery store that has that 1970s style. The moat on this play is its authenticity--this isn't El Vaquero, that diluted float of Americanized Mexican made to list on the NYSE--this is the real stuff. Its menu is in Espanol--so if you can't read that romantic language then you should lay off the action and invest in the Americanized ETFs. Tapatia refers to the city of Guadalajara; whether this means the food here is made in that tradition is outside my chart analysis. The inside is clean with loads of space. The service has high liquidity, and you will get filled quick. Both Mike and I had the Chimichanga. We both chose the pollo over carne for the protein. The chicken was so tasty and cooked exactly right. It comes with the traditional sides of refried beans, fresh Guacamole, and the reddest fried rice you will ever see outside your daily Robinhood status report. It is very filling and so come hungry and ready to eat, this isn't the place for low margin stomachs. And at the price of $11 it will not short squeeze your wallet either. The beer prices here are high; but that's ok, with everything else here being good the store deserves a little premium. So TL;DR: I like the restaurant. If you're on East Broad and ready to invest in a good meal, put a bid in here. Buy the call, sell the put--the probability of a profitable eat is high. Disclaimer: I am not a food advisor, make sure you do your own research before investing in any food. All food comes with risk; you can suffer serious losses. Talk to your local food broker chef before investing in any lunch. ;-)

What is there to say about this store expect it has just about everything you'll need. It feels a lot bigger inside compared to looking at it on the outside. I grabbed a few of the cake and doughnuts and some eggs for the moment but I'll be back in here again pretty soon to do major shopping. The meat selection was incredible and I wanna try their seasoned chicken. I also wouldn't mind checking out their ice cream selection sometime. This store is better of seen, rather than reading reviews. You'll enjoy it.

Pork on skewer
Sandy W.

Delicious! I ordered the pork cooked on a huge skewer with a pineapple on top and it was scrumptious delicious! Excited to go back and perhaps visit their restaurant.

Tacos and ceviche.

This is the real deal for Mexican food in Columbus. Forget El Vaquero and Cuco's and everything else. This place is incredible. Check it out, you won't regret it. Complete with live mariachi music, at least on Sundays.

Several flavors of ice cream. Every one I tried was amazing. My favorite was the pink one with the seeds. Weird, I know but worth it!

The gentleman who rang me up was SO nice! Every time I go through the full service check outs, everyone is always really nice. Despite it being crazy busy, I was treated with patience and kindness.

Serving Grandview Heights/Marble Cliff, and the Tri Village area, as well as OSU/Harrison West/Victorian Village. Offerings includes a full service bakery that can produce custom decorated cakes. Pro tip: try the white cake with cream cheese frosting. These are typically for birthdays, but sometimes you just really want this cake. It is ahhhhhmazing. There is also a state of Ohio liquor store, a large wine, selection, and extensive beers and ales available. Hot foods are prepared here with a deli also among the offerings, and sushi chefs on staff. If you don't want to cook, but you're looking for something to eat there is an answer here. Large produce section just inside the front door, and the meat department has butchers on staff, as well as prepackaged items. Huge dairy department. Regular grocery offerings are of course available in the central zone of the store. There is a pharmacy on site, and a large over-the-counter, non-prescription, and herbal/supplement section in the store. nearby there are fuel pumps at the associated Get-Go location.

The prepared food section is full of healthy options. The fresh fruit and veggies are diverse. The restaurant has amble food options that are tasty and fresh as well I had the kale Caesar salad, the Parmesan garlic and aïoli french fries as well as the breakfast sandwich with egg and sausage 10out of 10 highly recommend. The smoothie options remind me of Erewhons they are tasty and have healthy ingredients the coffee lattes are strong and fresh. The service is also friendly and helpful the staff are dressed very well gives the feeling of opulence that I look for when I'm out shopping. Prices are up there but worth it in my opinion. If you're wanting a new you're coded high end grid shopping experience where quality matches the expense I'd say this is the place I also love how the samples are available on the weekends and the fresh flower bouquets ranging from small arrangements to medium arrangements and beautiful floral paper. This is a great spot to come with friends for lunch do your grocery shopping, etc..

We sat inside but the patio looks lovely when it's a nice day out! There was some confusion over our orders, three different people tried to bring us scones that were not ordered, but Gabe did a good job otherwise. Most of the food didn't come out at the same time, French onion soup for two of our party didn't come out until everyone else's plate was cleared. They do have a great menu though, the burger was amazing and I really liked the biscuit appetizer. This is a good spot if you're looking for a spot to grab a drink and a quick bite on an afternoon where you don't have a time limit.
