It's disappointing because the servers truly deserve those tips. Their friendly attitudes, hard work, and excellent customer service are what earn customers' appreciation.

You can tell that this is a small family operation as I saw a kid who had to be at least 10 helping out wiping tables and what not which was totally awesome as a small family place like this is the type of business where I want to give my money to! So the food now that was what's totally good as I had found it a bit unique that they gave me almost a hard shell quesadilla but as soon as I dipped it into the consommé it became soft and incredibly delicious even more so than it was before as the meat was very flavorful along with the veggies inside made for one awesome quesadilla! Quesabirria Tacos here are on point as they also were packed with flavor and just soo good definitely one of the best tacos I've had in Florida! Their horchata was also very delicious flavorful and just perfect for when I needed a sip of that delicious milky goodness! Overall this is a super legit and very yummy spot to grab some Birria so do yourself a favor and don't let it pass you by as you'll be happy you came here for some delicious Mexican food!

The portions are generous, the service is fast, and the staff are kind and efficient, even during the busiest times. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, and honestly, tacos outside just hit differently--there's no comparison to other shops in the area. The place is small, so be sure to order a good amount--you'll probably want more after your first bite! Don't skip the sauces either; they're flavorful and pair perfectly with everything. Pro tip: Have exact cash or your card ready. The line moves quickly, especially during the lunch rush. Beyond the food, the shop itself is worth exploring. They carry a wide selection of grocery items, western wear, fresh pan dulce, and other authentic finds. Before you leave, treat yourself to a sweet pan dulce or a refreshing paleta. You won't regret it. Highly recommend--this spot truly delivers on all fronts

We have been very satisfied with the burritos, tacos, flautas, tortas, rice, beans, guacamole and salsas from this place. Grant it, the carne asada burritos have rice and beans added which I suppose is the way they do things on the east coast (?) which is not how I grew up enjoying them; or maybe it's not an east coast thing and depends what State in Mexico they family hails from (?). The service has always been great, and friendly. This restaurant is not designed to eat in, although I suppose you could if you wanted to sit at one of the counters on the bar stools provided.

Thanks, Yelp! When I was hungry after antiquing, you led me here. Nice work!…read more I'm not overly familiar with the Lakeland dining scene (I probably owe it to myself to change that), so needed help satisfying my constant craving for Mexican. The Yelpiverse offered several options. The many mentions of kind service drew me here. And indeed, Yelp was right on. Alex was amazing. He was so friendly and helpful-never made me feel rushed. That was just the thing I needed, after a long work week. So, Tapatio's is on Memorial, not far from Lakeland High School. It's a cute, golden yellow building with several beautiful flower planters and crepe myrtle trees out front. It's eye-catching and yes, there's a big private parking lot. Inside, it's big but cozy. There are two separate dining areas: one up front, facing Memorial. The other is along the side. I was seated in the front area. It's colorful, comfy and homey. There's a wholesome vibe here that makes me wonder if this a family operation. I felt very welcomed. And I absolutely loved the complimentary chips and salsa. The fresh, light chips were served warm and came with two salsas: regular-and a side of spicy, that you can mix in with the regular to your ideal heat level. The menu is large... and it took me a long time to decide. Alex was so patient. I had a margarita, which wasn't too sweet (yay). I also ordered a small side of queso blanco dip and a side of flour tortillas. Frankly, I was stuffed after that, but I didn't want to miss out on anything-so I ordered the lunch "pick two" and went with two tacos: one hard taco with beef and one soft taco with chicken. It came with one side-I went with rice. What a great value for money this was: a huge helping for $11.95! The tacos were stuffed full of meat, that was cooked well. I really enjoyed all the little extra touches here, the attention to detail. There was a paper doily under the cheese dip cup, on the little plate. I liked the engraved logo on the wooden salt and paper shakers on each table and all of the wall art and decor objects. You can tell the owners/staff care about the business and the customers. I wish them all good things and huge success.

We are big fans of this place and will be back…read more We came here on Valentine's Day weekend and there were tons of heart decorations. It was very cute. It's a large space so I don't think there's ever any wait. Service was quick and friendly. I tried the margarita flight. I actually wasn't the biggest fan (too sweet) but I'm glad I tried it. Next time I'll stick with another drink on their menu (they have so many great looking ones.) My husband got a skinny margarita and liked it. My older son requested queso and it was pretty good. I ended up drizzling it on my beans. He also got chicken tenders, ended up eating the fries, not loving the chicken so we should try something else. My younger son shared my carne asada, which was delicious. I highly recommend. I added the chimmichurri sauce which is the way to go. I got it with black beans. I wasn't a fan of the flour tortillas so no point in getting them and wasting the carbs. My husband got the taco de asada with refried beans and corn tortillas. He enjoyed it and would get it again. This is definitely a great place to stop near Legoland. I would eat here again.
