Fish, shrimp, and steak tacos
Joy C.

I only had a glass of margarita the first time I tried Tapatio. The place was clean and empty on a Thursday evening. The service was friendly when the server took our drink orders. We decided to come back about a couple of weeks later to try their food. There was one other table occupied with one customer dining in. On this visit, I've tried: FISH, SHRIMP, STEAK tacos- all of the proteins were fine, nothing really stood out. The tacos overall, were somehow disappointing. STEAK FAJITAS- I did not expect this dish to be soggy and bland. The steak was mixed and overcooked with the veggies. The chips and salsa were good. The drinks were decent. The service on the second visit was close to none existent. I'm not sure I'd come back. I wasn't too happy with the food and the service needs a lot of work and consistency.

Front door with hours

Even though this establishment JUST opened, they brought their "A" game. For dinner, we had an appetizer, 2 entrees, a soda & water and got out for under $50. Their guacamole is to die for. I had a shrimp dish that was very good. Parking could be an issue, depending on when you arrive. Stay away during commuter hours because they are located directly south of the Westmont train station.

I travel for work and so I have the opportunity to try many different places. I try to frequent…read morelocal places and base my reviews heavily on service, then food. Today was a good experience. I just worked out and called to ask about the dress code. No dress code, I'll be right there! I walked in and was greeted immediately and sat at the bar. The bartender was attentive and gave me time to decide without feeling rushed even as I changed my mind a couple times. I ordered the salmon and Mad Rose to drink. The drink has a lot going on and wasn't for me. It reminded me of a cinnamon orange tea, citrus and spicy. For dinner, I waffled on a couple fish dishes, but went with the salmon. It has a nice, crunchy glaze on it with some nice citrus flavors that weren't overbearing. I wasn't sure how the risotto would taste with the orange, but it worked. I was asked several times how I was doing and how my drinks and food were. Dining solo, I get ignored at times with subpar service. Not tonight access I appreciate that. I would recommend based on service and the dish I had. I will return to try more.

After a long final day of a conference in the Chicago suburbs, I really did not feel like dealing…read morewith traffic or going out to dine solo, so tonight called for delivery. I ordered from Entourage Downers Grove and was honestly impressed with how well everything held up for delivery. The standout for me was the lobster bisque. It arrived at the perfect temperature, which is pretty impressive for delivery. The bisque was rich and luscious without feeling overly heavy, and the basil oil added a nice brightness that balanced the creaminess beautifully. It also had a generous amount of lobster, including several large chunks, and was a very solid portion overall. The filet mignon sliders were another highlight. Each slider had a substantial piece of filet mignon topped with pickled onions, microgreens, and horseradish cream on brioche buns. The onions and horseradish added enough acidity and bite to balance the richness of the beef without overpowering it. I also tried the Vietnamese summer rolls, filled with roasted shiitake mushrooms, fresh vegetables, and rice noodles, served with both peanut sauce and sweet chili sauce. Everything tasted very fresh, and the sauces complemented the generously stuffed rolls nicely. My only small critique is that cutting them in half made for a prettier presentation, but made them a little awkward to dip and eat. Overall, this was a surprisingly strong delivery experience, and I would absolutely order from them again, or better yet, make it over to the restaurant itself next time I'm in the area.

It was my first time there and the place looks just like in the photos! It had a very cute and…read morecolorful vibe. The hostess was super nice and friendly. We had a reservation and were seated right away. Our server was super attentive. I ordered the cucumber margarita which I thought was a 10/10. Very refreshing and you could definitely taste the alcohol. I then tried the mango one which was also good but the cucumber one was better. I was bummed to not see cochinita pibil on their menu as I could've sworn I had seen it on another Yelp review. I ended up ordering two tinga tacos with rice and beans. The tacos were good but the rice and beans were just meh. The rice was bland and the beans tasted like frito lay bean dip. Their chips were freshly made which make them taste that much better. Their guacamole and salsa were both super yummy! I recommend both! The ambiance was there especially once the dj showed up and started playing all the jams. I look forward to going back and possibly try something different from their menu. Overall, I recommend trying this place out!

The buffalo chicken is our favorite, great flavor. We saw the chicken wings which looked like fire, but haven't tried them yet. We like the decor, great vibrance.
