I’ve grown up in Chicago and we have a huge Mexican community so I’m very familiar with good Mexican food. I have to say that El Tapatio would kill it in Pilsen. I had tacos at the Parachute location and a few days ago Carne Asada at their Moab location. They have this amazing Mexican style Coleslaw which is fantastic and the food is top notch. It’s rare to get super hot food at restaurants but the food comes out HOT and fresh. Seriously when I’m in the areas El Tapatio is located I will be back.

We loved it! Parachute is a really small town so we weren’t sure how good the restaurants would be. This place was SO great to find! We walked over from the Grand Vista Hotel. So convenient! Chips & salsa & slaw were great–fresh, tasty. I ordered the chicken fajitas & loved them–and everyone else ordered meals that they liked. There were 6 adults total and we were all happy with our food and the service! Recommend! Our server was “Benny” or Benito and he was great!!!! Thank you!

Spent the weekend in denver and was not impressed by the food. Decided to come out to the mountains. Found this place and I was very impressed. Great food and good prices.

My favorite restaurant in town! It’s super easy to access off the highway. Friendly staff. The portions are so worth the price. I’m from Florida and this is practically comfort for me. Highly recommended for those who crave authentic Mexican food. Clean and vibrant dinning room. Local hangout it seems.

This restaurant doesn’t stand out when passing through, but once inside you can see it’s a local favorite. Very good food and service.

Service was exceptional. The fried cheese cake was delightful. Got seated immediately and quickly put in our order. Server was very friendly and kept check on us to make sure we had what we needed. Its a little on the pricey side but the plates are massive and filled to the brim with food. Quality of the food was amazing. Would recommend! Had an authentic Mexican atmosphere with music and decorations.

I ended up having the Enchiladas Trio. As a person who has studied and who truly loves mexican cuisine it appealed to me because of the three different sauces. All were amazing, but the one that stole the show… the Mole. The flavor profile of this mole was so rich, layered, and complex. It was by far the best I have had outside of Mexico, easily top 3 I’ve ever had.

The food was amazing! I had the fajita platter! The service was top tier! One of the best services I had received in my life! The staff were welcoming and friendly! Knowledgeable and knew the menu well! Also the Chips and Salsa are unlimited and that a no brainer! This place has a real authentic Mexican atmosphere! There is traditional art work and artifacts everywhere! My meal was only like 14$ and I tipped the waitress 20$ because the service was outstanding! I can’t say enough good things about this place!

We visited El Tapatio and were absolutely thrilled! Authentic Mexican cuisine with incredibly rich flavors that felt like it was made with heart and soul! It’s a pity we were just passing through, or we’d come back often. The staff was friendly and attentive, providing excellent service that added to the cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience real Mexican food!

The pork burrito had tender, flavorful chunks of meat, and the enchiladas were very tasty. The portions were very generous and the leftovers didn’t go to waste! I definitely recommend the Dragon Margarita, it was fabulous!
