    Great service and the best food. I've been to all the El Tapatio's and this one is by far my favorite. We will absolutely be back.

    This restaurant is extremely clean and has a large selection of mexican food. I had the chicken tacos al carbon, which were perfectly spicy with fresh jalapenos. Their salsa was also perfectly spicy, which I added to my tacos, which gave them an extra spicy taste. The tortilla chips here were also fresh, and tasted homemade, and were not greasy at all.

    I came here with colleagues, and they were very accommodating to some of the requests and questions our group had. The only downside is that the prices here seemed a bit high for all of the dishes. Otherwise, a nice, clean place to eat that is more of a local restaurant than some of the places close by in the Belmar area.

    My parents come to this restaurant every weekend because it is clean and they have a regular waiter that they prefer.

    I met them here last weekend and we had a wonderful dinner. We did not feel rushed, they kept our drinks refilled, and they were very sweet to my daughter. We will keep coming back, this has become our regular Mexican food family restaurant.

    Last Sunday I sent my son for his birthday with three other
    guests to the Arvada location for dinner.

    I called the day before and spoke with Jesus Agustin who claimed to be the manager.  I advised him that I wanted to pay for the dinner by credit card.  I sent to my son's messenger my complete information and also authorized the charge.

    Jesus Agustin advised me that I would not have a problem.

    That night when dinner was over all hell broke out.  The restaurant told my son that they would not take the credit card and that they could not leave the restaurant.   I was out of the country and my son called me more than 12 times asking for help   Not only did it completely ruin his birthday dinner but also ruined our dinner.

    I am contacting the corporate office for a complete refund for his dIinner and a letter of apology.
    I am very upset and will not tolerate this action.

    I love this place so much. The employees are very nice and always on top of refilling your drinks or seeing if everything is okay. Reminds me of a lot of the places I used to eat at in San Jose CA. I keep coming back for more, the price is fair and the food is spot on every time.
