I'm really sad to have to do this but I think people should be warned. La Tapatía has been my…read morefavorite in the area for quite a while. I love their food. However, an incident happened recently that has now complicated my love for them. I ordered two burritos for delivery recently and one ended up being wrong. It was supposed to be a Burrito Americano with shredded chicken, something I've had before. What came had ground beef and no red sauce, so I figured it was an entirely different burrito and called to let them know mine might have been swapped with someone else's. I understood that there was a good chance it wasn't getting replaced because I couldn't drive up to get another one, and yes that ended up being the case, but what got me was the guy on the phone said "oh sorry, on our tablets where we receive orders, we couldn't see that you made a meat selection so we just chose one." I confirmed that wasn't the case on my end. So one, that's crazy. Two, we've ordered from them before and that hasn't been a problem. Three, if that's true, how am I supposed to trust that I'll ever get what I ordered? So I don't know if they're not taking responsibility for their mix up for if they have a new system that's going to cause a lot of issues. But either way, I'm not thrilled and I'm probably done with them.

One of the best surprises was the bean dip they serve with the chips. I never thought about pairing bean dip with chips and salsa like that, but it was delicious and a great start to the meal. The portions were generous, so you definitely get your money's worth. The margaritas were tasty and strong enough to give you a little buzz--so definitely don't drink and drive! Our waitress checked on us regularly, and the service was truly on point the entire time. We actually just happened to drive by and noticed this new spot, and I'm so glad we stopped in. Great food, great service, and a really enjoyable experience overall. We will definitely be back!

There's so many around but none are good on weekends when most people would want to use them.

Things were OK until we ordered a second round of drinks. It took 15-20 minutes and by that time I told another employee to tell our waiter to cancel the order. We were done with our food. On top of that I did not receive a birthday dessert, I did not get to wear the sombrero, and no one sang happy birthday to me. I was very disappointed. I definitely won't be returning to this location for any birthday festivities as it was very underwhelming. I have had a much different experience at another of their locations on a different date where the service was better and a friend's birthday celebration was fun and memorable.

Parking in this area can be a little tight, but we managed to find a spot without too much trouble. Once inside, we were surprised by how spacious the restaurant is. Even with the dinner crowd, we were seated right away. The atmosphere was lively, especially with the USA vs. Paraguay World Cup match playing on every TV. It created the perfect backdrop for a post‑game meal. I decided to try something new from their menu: the Aguachile Steak. It was outstanding. The steak is prepared in a vinegar-based style similar to escabeche, giving it a bright, tangy flavor that really stands out. My wife and sons enjoyed their meals just as much, and everyone left happy and full. The service was excellent from start to finish--friendly, fast, and attentive. Between the great food, energetic ambiance, and top-notch service, this visit was a win all around. We'll definitely be coming back.

The food however, came out very quickly. I enjoyed the flautas, opting for two chicken and two beef. Both were super tasty, but the chicken was my favorite. I'd certainly get this dish here again. My boyfriend got the burrito grande and was less impressed. There were only two shrimp and he felt the flavor overall was pretty bland. We both LOVED their house salsa, though, and shamelessly ate through almost two whole baskets of chips during our meal. I'd certainly go back to try some other items.
