“I recently dined at El Tapatio Mexican restaurant, and the experience was truly delightful. The atmosphere was wonderful, creating a warm and inviting vibe. The staff exhibited professionalism and warmth throughout our visit, enhancing the overall dining experience.The food was great. The menu offered a variety of options, and each dish we tried was a great. The cucumber Margaritas were a standout, a refreshing twist to the classic cocktail.One notable feature was the television screens in the bar area, providing an excellent opportunity to catch up on sporting events while enjoying the meal. What stood out was the lack of wait at the bar, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience.Considering the fantastic food, inviting atmosphere, and the added bonus of a lively bar area with multiple screens, I believe El Tapatio would be an excellent choice for hosting family from out of town. The combination of a yummy meal and a fun, upbeat environment makes it a nice option for those seeking both tasty food and a vibrant dining experience.The bartender told me about live music every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 5-8pm. We will definitely be back.Vegetarian options: Lots of options I did not take the time to write out each and everyone but I was fully satisfied as a person that was raised vegetarian and I'm 54 now.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“I stopped by Panchitos because of the unique name and I was very hungry. I was craving fish tacos. Thankfully they had it and I also ordered the shrimp tacos and their home made flan. I am a big foodie! I've lived in San Jose, mountain view, all over the bay area and I'm now in Placer County. Panchitos has excellent service and the best tacos and flan! No matter what you order, you will not be disappointed and you absolutely MUST try their flan. This just made my day! Thank you for your wonderful food and for your very kind hospitality. I will return with my family!“

“Fantastic! I love the staff I love everything that I've had here. They turned me into a coconut convert. I used to hate them but the way they prepare for here is delightful. We used to live two blocks away and I was so sad when we moved because I wasn't within walking distance to this place anymore, I now make an additional 30 minute drive just to buy from here. Well worth it, they also hand make all of their ice creams in house.“

“I don’t even know where to start! I was waiting to post my review when I got home to take pictures of my tacos… that didn’t happen because I ate them right away! Their food is so good, closely resembles the ones from Mexico! They have a self serve table with different salsas (which are very good and not watery at all!)“

“We were in the area and stopped by for tacos. I enjoyed their quesabirria tacos. They were not too oily or burnt...just right for how my stomach was feeling. They have a full nacho and salsa bar. They were making fresh tortillas on the side. Very authentic and love the atmosphere. Great place to get your taco fix.“

“I honestly wish i could give this place a 10 star if not more, i ordered through door dash and I called the place, stating there was missing items in my order instead of giving me credit or putting up a fight, this man which i assume is the owner went above and beyond and brought me my food plus some. Seriously AMAZING place. Food is great staff amazing. Hands down best place, with just genuine people.“

The price for 4 tacos and coke is reasonable!!! The plate was so good i forgot to take a picture for the review. But i highly recommend this wonderful restaurant“

“Any time I move to a new city as a travel nurse, I'm on the hunt for a new delicious Mexican spot. This place was an instant winner. It has a comforting, homey feel to it. I wasn't thrilled with the tacos but only because I prefer a less American type taco but this place had THE BEST carnitas. They were DELICIOUS. Our waitress was super sweet and gave us her suggestions: the carnitas plate and enchiladas. I've come back 3 times in the last month for the carnitas.. The soups are also delicious! Highly recommend.“

“Was at my son's open house for school. There were several food trucks. I decided to go for Mexican food. I ordered a taco salad with chicken. It was so good. I didn't remember what the food truck was called. Cause I would definitely find it again. So I looked up my debt card. Search the web and I found it. Yay!!! So I wanted to write a review. If you're hungry and want great Mexican food stop by. I'll be back.“

“Oh, my goodness, I have found heaven. I'm from San Diego and we eat lots of carne asada burritos. My problem is this, most Mexican shops here don't sell carna asada burritos. If you fall into this hole like I did, you are now saved. Not only do they sell carne asada burritos, but they cook everything fresh everyday. They cook their beans early in the morning, they make their salsa fresh everyday. It smells like home and I'm so happy to have found this restaurant. And just in case you need a drive thru, they have it. It's been a year here in Citrus Heights without a carne asada burrito and that's hard when you want good Mexican food. I am one happy girl now. I am happy to give them a 5 star rating. Shirley.“

“I went here last week for the first time and was impressed with the customer service! The girl at the front counter was very helpful and went out of her way to help me find what I needed. The store is a bit smaller than I was hoping for but overall a pleasant experience and very reasonable prices. Will return!“
