I frequent this place as I workout at the gym in the same plaza, staff is friendly and helpful with recommendations. Food is always fresh and comes out promptly. My favorite item is the Carne Asada wet burritos, extremely good. They have a fresh salsa bar that has pickled onions, carrots, and jalapeños and various salsas that are all very tasty. The restaurant is family oriented and lively with families enjoying lunch and dinner. Great spot read more

HOLY MOLY THE FOOD WAS AWFUL. I'm talking zero seasoning & zeroooo flavor. The chicken tasted like boiled chicken. My friend got beef taquitos (not pictured) she had 2 bites and said, "this is really bad." The salsa felt like random things were thrown in there,, chunky & not good. I will say, the staff were extremely welcoming. The restaurant was clean and a nice open layout. I won't be back. read more

La Tapatia Mexican Grill - Chicken Flautas - Mexican Near Me - Upland, California

A pretty decent spot if you are craving good chips and salsa with excellent customer service! Beans are vegetarian friendly. They use vegetable oil and not lard, but there is chicken broth in the rice. I really enjoyed the salsa bar too! Potato taco was okay, but enchilada with green sauce was delicious. Food is reasonably priced and very large portions. Lots of seating inside and out for pets. They have a good amount of vegetarian options. read more

The food is always good, but the service needs work. I ordered two orders of Flautas and asked for the guacamole on the side because I was ordering it to go and they only gave me a tablespoon size serving with each order. That wasn't even enough for one of the flautas and each order comes with two. I also ordered an 8 oz side of guacamole because I like a lot of it, but I didn't expect such a small amount with the order and they completely forgot to give me my 8 oz side of guacamole, which cost me $8. So now I'm out $8 and I barely have any guacamole for my orders. It is not that difficult to follow an order ticket and make sure everything is in the bag before giving it to the customer. I love La Tapatia, but I can't afford to throw my money away and get nothing in return. Please do better. read more

I had the bacon breakfast burrito today.. It was ok... I have been here in the past and ordered other things that were really good.. Today it was little disappointing, more beans (a lot) than bacon, potatoes and egg which made my burrito on the mushy side and fall apart at the bottom.. I also feel there may have only been one slice of bacon in it too... Perhaps I should have asked if they could have grilled it after they prepared it to keep it intact.. I felt like it was a bean and cheese burrito and not a bacon breakfast one.. The service was spot on, no complaints there! The establishment has nice decorum and an awesome salsa bar with complimentary charro beans! read more

La Tapatia Mexican Grill - Breakfast Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Upland, California

Food is delicious here! Hubby got flautas with beans and rice while I ordered beef taquitos with beans and rice. Serving was a good size. We also ordered a chicken tortilla soup that was very good. I like their pozole in the past, and I think it's a favorite for me. You walk up to the counter to order and pay and then you get your own table. Food is served at your table which is very convenient. The servers are very nice and courteous. It's not a full service restaurant but our family likes this place a lot. It has a nice set up with cute decor. The restaurant must be doing well because they have several locations. We will be back! read more

We usually go after church but lately we see a change in the food. My beans were so dry and rice lost my appetite to return here

It's a small corner spot where you order at the counter and they bring the food out to you. They offer a wide variety of authentic Mexican dishes and several homemade soups. I specifically stopped in on Saturday for the Menudo, and it was probably the best I've ever had. My husband had the ground beef enchiladas and they were very good! Everything tastes fresh and homemade, and you can tell it's family-run. They also serve fresh juices and horchata, plus there's a salsa bar, warm bean bar, and my favorite--fountain Coca-Cola. I'll definitely be back. The staff--who I'm sure are family--are some of the friendliest people you'll meet. read more

Great affordable place, we really love their options and their staff is friendly.

Great place for a solid meal. read more

First time here for me, it's been hard to find good Mexican food in UPLAND. But dang, omg this Carne asada plate was really really good!! If this wasn't a cheat meal I'd be here more often. read more

I love this place! I've tried several items on the menu, breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and so far nothing has missed. The place is always clean and tidy and has plenty of seating. They offer free charro beans and I could eat those with their chips alone and be satisfied. The workers have always been very attentive and kind. Definitely a good place to pick up a quick Mexican meal. read more

This place has gone down hill, I'm not sure what Happened but wow! I'm shocked! The little boy that works there with the tattoo on his forearm is one of the rudest people I have ever met. He needs some serious training and help. He was very rude to me and other customers while I was there. I will never come back to this place ever again. read more

This honestly was our favorite Mexican spot for years! The decline in portions (takeout specifically) and the quality of the food has been more than disappointing. We are takeout queens in this house and this was a go to spot for us; quick, cheap, good portions, fresh, delicious. Unfortunately, the portions have been cut a ton and the quality has really dropped off. The tacos last time were so soggy that they just fell apart. The chips and salsa have always been a pain in my side because most places offer them complimentary, but they charge for them here and it's not exactly cheap to add. All in all, it's one of those places I prefer to eat in house because you actually get your money's worth. I just find it disappointing when takeout is so different from dine in, that we take our business elsewhere. I understand times are tough, but they are tough for everyone. I'd happily pay a bit more if it meant we actually received what we got when we eat in house. read more

Was greeted by a friendly server and she answered all our questions, now for the food I wasn't expecting much but I have to say the portion of the tacos and burritos are a good size and the menudo I have to say was amazing they give you everything you need for it lime, onions cilantro tortillas etc and the flavor wow my serving had the right amount of meat and hominy and soup. I had the chili Verde burrito and that was tasty for being a wet burrito(first time trying a wet burrito) my whole order was to go, and I had reheat my food because my soup was just warm other wise I would have given it a 5 star It's a nice little place clean inside and outside so if your in the area on foothill and Euclid by CVS try them out We will go back but next I'll try eating in read more

Went here for dinner and they were having some type of supervisor sponsorship dinner at 7: 30pm. we ordered sat down. They brought us our food. my tacos had cheese on it. I ask for no cheese! I took it back and they said no problem they brought me back the same taco and just took the lettuce and cheese off and threw more lettuce and broke the shell. It made me sick and my stomach upset ever since I ate here. Sorry but I will not be coming back should have stayed and talked to the supervisors that showed up that night I didn't even get another taco when I gave it to her but that's okay i didn't want it anyways! read more

Lots to enjoy here from the wide arrange of tasty (and spicy if that is your thing) salsa to friendly staff. Lots of seating and plenty of TV's to watch sports upon. I forgot the name of the burrito I got but it was delicious.

Ordered the kid bean, cheese and rice burrito for my pre teen child and the burrito could feed a 2 year old only. It was the saddest burrito I had ever seen in my life. It was take out so I was home when my kid opened her meal to be so disappointed by the size/portion. I had the carne asada sopes and I did not like the taste or the carne. Husband had the Chile rellano burrito and said it was "okay." He's definitely had better at other places. They didn't pack me any salsas or offer any. We won't be coming back. read more

If your in the Upland area and want authentic Mexican food, please run here! Each time I come, the service is exceptional and I love that consistency. The restaurant is pretty spacious and always clean. I ordered the Chorizo and eggs breakfast plate which came with rice and chorizo beans. At least, I think they are chorizo beans- the flavor is phenomenal. The portions are generous and before they bring you your entree, they give you a small bowl of frijoles de La hoya- those beans have so much flavor and they were super fresh. I also placed a to go order which was the Delux breakfast which came with breakfast potatoes, bacon, eggs and pancakes. I also ordered the green chilaquiles and eggs plate which I hear were delicious as well. To wash it all down, I ordered their Agua Fresca - the pineapple and passion fruit, soooo good! I've been here multiple times and I'm never disappointed. read more

Overall 10/10 recommend! The atmosphere is fun and lively while also very clean. The staff are really nice and helpful & the food is amazing! I've had their potato tacos plate twice and finish every last bite each time. The beans are so rich and delicious, the rice is seasoned perfectly, and the tacos are crispy and fresh. I love their potato tacos so much because the potato is seasoned just right and has the right texture. The churros are the best ones I ever had -- so crispy and crunchy, but soft and fluffy on the inside. It's hard not to finish these like it's a race, haha. Their agua frescas are delicious and have the right amount of sweetness, they're always made fresh. I highly recommend both of the green salsas (green mild & the mild avocado verde). Check this place out, you won't be disappointed! read more

Food was pretty decent! I was actually really surprised that this place doesn't give you free chips with your purchase (even when dinning in). I spent $36 and I would have had to pay an additional amount for chips if I decided. I have had better burritos and tacos elsewhere in Northern CA and while I'm out here on business, I haven't found a great Mexican food place. The food here was 6.5-7/10 The staff was very friendly and nice, found our answers to my questions since they were new at the register. read more

Was craving nachos and decided to give this place a try for dinner recently. They have inside and outside seating which is nice and also spacious. You walk in and place your order and are given a number and the food is brought to your table. I do like that they have a soda fountain and a salsa bar with a crockpot of heated beans. We ordered the carne asada nachos, the taquito meal and my husband got the Chile Relleno. The portion of everything was good for the price and our meals were pretty good. I wasn't a fan of the nachos though. The meat seemed over cooked and they added this red sauce to everything that I personally didn't like. I still think it's a decent place and offers daily specials which is nice. read more
