Reviews for El Tapatio Mexican Restaurant in Cranston, RI
A very pleasant experience, we had eaten at the old location one of our last visits to the area. We started with some margaritas... and they were good and strong so thumbs up for the drinks. We had the sampler plate which was a great size and had some tastystuff on it. I also had 2 tacos and the chicken was just the way I liked it moist and flavorful. Overall we all had a great. Isit and we will definitely return. Read more
Good sized portions that won't break your budget. Tasty food. The basket of tortilla chips is served warm with a salsa that has... a little kick. 5/31/22 another great meal. My friend had pork tacos. I had the appetizer sampler - well, about half ofit. 8/16/22 I tried the jumbo shrimp, mushrooms and onions with a side of rice. Delicious. Read more
I had the cerviche. And lthough the portion was huge. I was hoping for a variety of seafood in the cerviche. It was good but,... not what I expected. It only had shrimp and avocado slices. It was mostly salsa like in presentation. Overall, the service wasvery nice and attentive. I'll return again and try their tacos next time. Read more
Flavorful, generous amount. Fast and friendly service. Beer on tap given in large beer mug Complementary chips and... salsa.guacamole is great! Got churros and sopapillas for dessert. It was ok but for some reason tasted old or from frozen.Overall everything was good though. It's worth making the stop. Read more
I never ever do this! But if I can give someone an insight on a restaurant let me just tell you. PLEASE GO ELSEWHERE! such a... disappointment 1.virgin margaritas 2. Ordered mixed fajitas, got chicken 3. Ordered carne asada came out colder than Alaska inDecember + never gave me my " Mexican coleslaw" 4. Waiter is arguing with chick on the side of me on prices of margaritas. 5.Queso literally tasted burnt.. like been sitting there forever, like I said I never leave a bad review as I work in the foodindustry myself, but if I could I would give this place a negative review. this place is god awful please do yourself a favorand take your money elsewhere PLEASE ????

I heard they returned to Cranston and I was excited to stop by. I have been here a few times for takeout and needed to try... dining in. Overall the experience was wonderful from the waiters to the chefs. We had a great experience. All the food wasreally fresh. I could taste it in their ingredients because nothing felt watery,dry, or over salted to preserve the food?sfreshness. We ordered the horchata (highly recommended and the taste is still the same), the hibiscus tea, torta de carnita,and asada quesadilla. The torta de carnita is a dish you need to try. The bread is so buttery and acts like a pillow to thepork loin. Read more
