Taqueria El Tapatio Mexican Restaurant - Canyon (TX)

1 /5 Betty Jane: Ok first things first when you walk in you seat yourself wich is ok, now to the service & food ww waited about 5 minutes for a waitress we ordered the chips and salsa they bring you before your food well let me just say it wasnt good the chips were made in old grease and they had a bitter flavor, the salsa was not good either it also had a bitter flavor i sent both back i asked for fresh chips & salsa and i had trouble getting them, now our food my husband got menudo and it also wasnt fresh I ordered the special they had wich was an enchilada plate that came with a taco and that to was not fresh none of our food was fresh then we bring up the issues to the staff and they just brush it off as if nothings wrong not ro mention at the pint of me getting my food I was still waiting for fresh chips and a different salsa wich took them more than 30 minutes to bring what I had requested. I really dont recommend this restaurant to anyone but if anyone chooses to go just make sure what you order is fresh. Ill leave pictures of our food and by the pics the food looks good and fresh but in reality it wasnt. We wont be going here for a while hopefully the restaurant reads this review and fixes the issues with their food. Restaurants are supposed to change out the grease and they dont they need to start changing out the grease so the food will taste good. Pics added!!

1 /5 Ty Padilla: Portion size is small for what you pay for. We received our fajitas, but had to wait about 10 min for tortillas and the toppings. No chips and salsa was offered. Went to pay and was charged $21 over what the price should have been. Brought it up. They re rang the ticket and was still $5 over. I asked for a itemized receipt but they could not provide one. Save yourself the trouble and go to the one in Amarillo.

5 /5 dot smith: The food here is really good. We all enjoyed it. There is a full bar too. I had the posoli with tortillas and a side of rice. The enchiladas and chili rellano were a hit too. And dont forget the margaritas! Yum prices were very reasonable. Enjoy

1 /5 A W: First time here and was not impressed. Start with atmosphere. Most booths were dirty with food on them. The tables with chairs are super straight and not comfortable. No music. At all. Take your pick whether this is good or bad. However, I prefer music over listening to loud TVs showing a college football game. No privacy; tables are crammed together for how slow it is. I don’t see all these tables packed any time soon. The bar is also open to the dining area. One would think glass in the open windows would make it more comfortable for guests not wanting to hear drinkers yelling at TVs, clapping loudly, and ordering another round. Now the food. It’s normal and cliche. But okay and the menu has lots of options and typos. Chips weren’t tasty at all and hot sauce wasn’t great. Ordered an appetizer, “queso” with beef. $8 for a bowl a little bigger than what the hot sauce comes in is not worth the extra cost at all. Server didn’t know what the avocado salad was and I’m sure I would’ve been impressed if it came out either. Fajitas were dry and bland as well, but an okay amount. The sides however were very small and speak to cost effectiveness. Beans out of a can, teaspoon serving of guacamole, tasteless cheese, and a touch of pico. Only received two tortillas as well. So again, cost saving over customer experience. Left as soon as I could. Not finishing the meal as it wasn’t good nor was it good to keep sitting through the loud TVs, loud patrons, and being upset over wasting my money.

1 /5 Estaban Arenas: Have tried it 3 different times in the last year the service is terrible first time walking in me and my family wait to be seated at the front counter several waiters walked by us staring we waited 20 minutes until a customer mention you have to seat your self the second time I called ahead the lady was really rude and adamant the Food would be ready and I don’t need to call it was just a burrito gave them15 minutes and still waited my full break for a burrito and today we walked in sat our self’s the waiter was on top of everything but when I got our food I ordered enchiladas plate it was just mozzarella cheese with a tomato paste on top looked like sweet and sour sauce we won’t be eating here again
