El Tapatio of Rock Falls

"El Tapatia is a gem! The vibrant atmosphere and warm service make every visit a joy. Their tacos al pastor are bursting with flavor, perfectly balanced with fresh cilantro and onion. The homemade salsas add a delightful kick, and the margaritas are top-notch. Portions are generous, very prices are fair, and the salsa is great. Highly recommend this authentic Mexican spot for a delicious and good service!"

"I dined here with a large group. The food was enjoyable. I had the chicken and beef fajitas, which were good, but I asked for cheese on top and they ended up putting it on the rice instead. The place was tidy and ready for a fiesta!"

"Vibrant and very colorful atmosphere in the restaurant with multicolored chairs and decorations all over the dining area. Customer service was very good, however, the handheld Veggie Burrito I ordered had too many vegetables in it and was way too cheesy. I did not request zucchini and yellow squash in my Burrito, however, it came with those two vegetables inside my Burrito. In addition, there was lettuce, tomato, sour cream, rice and beans in it. The Burrito was too full and soggy for it to be picked up and eaten. The complimentary nachos and spicy salsa that came with the Burrito was very good. The salsa had a spicy kick to it. Also, I think the price for the Burrito was slightly overpriced compared to other Mexican joints."

"Love the lengua tacos and the special salsa. I'll have to go back to take some pics. Went back so I could take some photos!"

"This is a great authentic Mexican restaurant with an extensive menu. I have never had a bad meal there. They have great cocktails too. It's reasonably priced also."

"If you want some leftovers, this is the perfect place. Big plates of very good food. Wonderful fun atmosphere, everytime I go I see familiar faces and everyone is very friendly. If you need a margarita and yap with your bestfriend this is our go too!"

"Fun atmosphere! Wayyyyy overpriced ($25 for 1 person? For 3 tacos, guac, sour cream and rice milk). Not exactly fresh food, except for the tortilla chips and the shrimp in the taco. The pork taco meat is soggy and unflavored. The steak taco meat is hard. Food doesn't smell that good...idk, like...old lard. Tomato toppings have that sour smell/taste to them Decent amount of cilantro. The beans are runny. Good horchata/rice milk. The waiter/manager(?) wasn't very friendly - not rude, just not friendly. Overall... a big pass. But I'm spoiled from eating fantastic Mexican food in Chicago."
