    Ready for being served with chips & salsas
    José A.

    You start off with a small cup of some complimentary fish broth, to start your taste buds. Excellent! We enjoyed all of our plates & dishes. See our photos. Definitely returning. Only draw is a small parking lot but there's neighborhood parking also.

    Pedimos la sopa marinera y parecía agua de la llave cuando no funciona el drenaje era café en vez de roja! Y estos chiles se los saqué no son adecuados para un clase de caldo Mexicano! These bell peppers are not the right chiles for Mexican seafood yikes!!!!!

    This is a hidden gem. It was full when we arrived but immediately got a very friendly waitress to sit us at a bar while the table was available. In the meantime served us drinks and chips with salsa. What we ended up doing is asking for appetizers to try as many items as possible. Everything was amazing!!!! I could not tell you what my favorite thing was. We got toritos that are chilis that are stuffed with shrimp wrapped in bacon. Aguachile verde was also soooo good, it is shrimp with green salsa and cucumbers. It was amazing fresh and delicious. We also had shrimp chile con queso, a fantastic "queso fundido" (melted cheese) with shrimp but with some peppers and tomatoes. Enjoyed those fantastic tacos. Fish chicharron was also amazing. This is the best I've had at a restaurant. It comes with a chipotle sauce to dunk you fish. Finally some fresh oysters. We ordered fresh oysters (I don't like then cooked) it comes with a nice type of soy sauce, but I prefer just to add some lime and hot sauce. Yum! I highly recommend to give this place a try. It's worth the drive!

    Order of the battered tempura fish tacos

    First time here. Heard from my brother in law that he liked it. It's a "hole in the wall" place. Pretty small but we came at a very good time (Saturday at 4) and it was empty. Now to the food.. I ordered the Shrimp Chile Con Queso.. really good flavor served with tortillas. Then I ordered the Fish Soup. It was a good size (medium seemed like a large) Large size pieces of fish and good amount. Good flavor. Next I ordered an order of the Battered tempura fish tacos. Very big pieces of fish. I think it's better than Lil Shack's. I would recommend this place. Only bad part, that they do take some time because it is a small kitchen but worth the wait.

    Calamari.

    Absolutely delicious!! You can tell that all of the seafood is fresh and expertly prepared. Choose the time of day that you visit very carefully. It's an extremely cozy venue. Not small, but homey. The single Lapa ceviche tostada could be a meal by itself. The calamari was lightly battered but it doesn't fall apart when you add lime or dip it in the aioli that accompanies it. Try the Octopus taco! Then wash it down with an oyster shot! (Don't wear light colors when attempting to do oyster shots.)FYI. This place is a must try!!

    Delicious grilled fish, shrimp cocktail, tacos, and guac! Very good! I will continue ordering Uber Eats from here!

    Had a craving for seafood. Lapa Lapa came up on a search. Not terrible. Really nice atmosphere. Good service; friendly. Food was pretty damn good. Would have liked the chiles hotter but wasn't a deal breaker. Shrimp albondigaschevice shrimp cocktail; great taste but hardly any shrimp.

    Eat tacos. Sip tequila. Repeat…read more Probably one of the best taco restaurants I've been to in El Paso! I could say so much for you to believe me, and it honestly starts with the speedy (and kind) service, flavorful profiles and the pricing! My first visit I just simply couldn't believe it. Each visit, I try something new and I must say that I'm hooked on the Jamaica Margarita (with the tajin rim), and the pork shoulder taco, as well as the chicken taco! The Baja shrimp taco is also in my top 3! The staff is kind, energetic and will remember you; not just from personal experience but from my observations as well. Service is fast, food is hot and it's a great place to be! There is no wi-fi, but it is a FUN and engaging place for sure! I'd recommend a bar seat if you're lucky Warning: You may leave planning your next visit before you've even paid the bill.

One of the servers, Jonah, threw away my "half-eaten" food without asking if I was finished. I didn't realize that was his decision to make, and when I brought it up, he rolled his eyes and responded with a horrible attitude. On a positive note, Sara behind the bar was fantastic, and Alexis was incredibly kind. They both provided the level of service I've come to expect from Taconeta. I hope management addresses this, because one negative interaction shouldn't overshadow the great staff and food that usually keep me coming back.

With their recent expansion, the experience is even better. There's plenty more room for everyone to enjoy their delicious tacos without feeling crowded.

It's been difficult to find that same flavor here in El Paso, but this place absolutely delivers. The salsa bar is another highlight and never disappoints. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and pairs perfectly with the tacos. Don't be surprised if it's busy when you visit, that's usually a great sign.

Might be my favorite tacos in El Paso!
