La Tapatia Mexican Restaurant

No stars! Ordered $60 worth of food at 1:23 PM and got a message it would be delivered between 2:40 and 2:50. At 3:15, I chatted online with GH because the food hadn't been delivered yet. They said the Delivery Service (Food To Go) forgot to put the order in and it would be another hour. After 30 minutes of waiting, I received a $13 credit on my order, but the tip I added online and the delivery fee added up to more than that. At 4:40 PM, I chatted with GrubHub again. They called the restaurant again and I received an e-mail, a text, and a chat that said the food would be here in 5 minutes. It was, but they forgot the drinks and the food was cold. In the end, I wasted my entire day chatting online with GrubHub, received a $13 discount on my food and $25 Free Grub certificate to be used on a future order through GrubHub. I won't be using any of these services again. more

delivery charges too high more

We went to La Tapatia with friends and it was great. The food was great, the service was great and the price was right. Add in that it's 5 minutes from home and we will be going back often. more

After years of going to whatever mexican restaurant that was convenient, we came across La Tapatia - they have a restaurant in Concord, and one in Martinez. Same owner, and same excellent food and service. Come for great chips & salsa or monster-good margaritas, and stay for the great food. I can't recommend one thing over another; the menu is diverse, consistently great, and I have been happy with everything I've ordered here. Great for kids, great for a date. Great if you just need to satisfy your craving for mexican. Give them a try. Pros: The restaurant is always busy but not noisy. Lots of tables so rarely is there a wait. more

This place was awesome! I could smell the food from a block away. When we walked in, I felt like we were in Mexico. There were mariachis playing guitar and singing and a waiter ran by me with a plate of sizzling fajitas. The waitress sat us down in the side room which was very beautiful. She said it was new so I felt very lucky to be seated there. We were served chips and salsa which came with free unlimited bean dip. I could have eaten just that all night! We ordered grande margaritas which were HUGE! I got the cheese enchiladas and my boyfriend ate the steak burrito with the red sauce on top. I think they called it ?famosa style? My boyfriend said it was the best burrito he?s had in a long time and he had to take the rest to go cause it was so big, which almost never happens with him. The service was good, everybody had a smile and looked like they wanted to be there. It was really busy but the food arrived promptly and was super hot like it was just made seconds before. I think that is always important. I will definitely be going back again. Pros: great margaritas (strong) great live music Cons: really busy and full parking lot more
