“ Its a little place in an outlet mall. You sit and eat, selfservice. No chips and salsa brought to you. Very quiet. Food came quickly. But the food was basically TV style dinner on a plate! My husband ordered beef Taquitos, and he got chicken. Wont be coming back.. sorry ”
“ El Tapatio is my number one choice for Mexican food, when I am in the west, San Fernando Valley. This is a family run establishment, with several locations in the area. I know of 3 three locations Victory Fallbrook, Saticoy Fallbrook, and just off of Sherman Way near the Post Office. This review is for the Fallbrook Victory location. The food here is excellent, I recommend the Super Burrito pictured. They also have a Salsa Bar to spice up your order. All in all, I highly recommend El Tapatio, the staff are friendly and courteous, the food is excellent, though it may be a bit pricey, it is worth it. The only downside is the parking park in the supermarket lot, and walk over. Its easier. ”
“ Oh come on you big taquito you! This is a fivestar place all the way. Whoever gave this place four stars and below must be like those four out of five dentists. Just saying. And the main reason why I gave it five stars is because for what it is, its a casual Taco stand that you can actually sit down inside. Its good at what it does. The food is really good, the prices are right, and the people behind the counter all have a smile. You can tell the men and women who work here love their jobs, and pour their heart into the food that they prepare for you. I Love this place! For good food that is served quick, eat here or take it to go, this is some of the best authentic Mexican food youll have around. Value! Whether youre a family, or on a casual date, or just coming in on a work break, or dont feel like cooking at home, this might be the spot for you. I feel like for the amount of money youre spending, their prices are perfect for May 2024. Youre getting your moneys worth, and its good food. Their three taquito and drink special is 6. I mean where else can you get a deal like that, especially considering the fact that everything is truly homemade. I like the 3 beef enchiladas, and I also like the three taco special as well. So why not have everything? Today I got it all. Lol. Everything I just mentioned, the 3 enchiladas, the three tacos, and the three taquitos, and the drink all came out to 33. Its enough to feed at least three people, maybe four if you have small children. Parking can be tricky, but just go into the Pep Boys parking lot on the other side of the fire station, and you should be able to find tons of free parking if theres none available in the lot out front. Dont expect anything fancy here. This isnt a Cantina or anything. But on the day that we came, Cinco de mayo, there was actually a threepiece band playing with a beautiful harp, a guitar player, and a bass player. All acoustic, like youd find on the streets of mexico. This was an unexpected surprise, started a year ago. Sundays from 3pm 6pm or so. Its a taco stand, but you can sit down. No hype. Just really good food. I could go on and on about this place, and give you some over detailed account of what happened here. Just trust me, put your phone down, walk in the door, order some food, and eat. Lol. Its that good. Free Chips and salsa are on the sidebar as well if you want to add to your order. Yes I will be back. ”
“ What a great place to have tacos. I usually get the combination of three tacos it comes with rice and beans and a drink for 10.50. Plus chips and salsa bar. You have your choice of meat. But everything is good here I also enjoy the burritos. Also the free coffee for breakfast is a nice treat. ”
“ Food was fast, fresh, and served with warm smiles!! Def will be hitting this little strip mall again to try all of them! No skimping here either. Reasonable prices and nice and clean restaurant ”
“ This place is just fantastic for a go to spot on the Valley. Colorful and festive interior, super helpful staff and the food is just out of this world! Had the Huevos con Machaca Eggs with a Mexican Beef Jerky 1000X better than it sounds and super authentic and it was off the charts! Eggs were amazing, tortillas, rice and beans were solid but the salsas were out of control pico de gallo for the chips, red and green salsa for the eggs, and another smoked salsa on the side. In short Salsa Heaven! An absolute must visit place in the Valley for your Mexican fix! ”
“ The Carnitas burrito I got was delicious and a pretty good deal . It came with house made chips salsa a drink for 12 , I got their house made horchata which was excellent . Ill definitely be back to try some of their other meat selections . ”
“ Good food and reasonable prices ”
