Probably some of the best customer service I've ever had at a restaurant. Prompt seating, orders taken and drinks delivered. Table side quac was fantastic, couldn't recommend more. Open late on the weekends!

As a senior citizen with a fixed income, I really enjoy being able to enjoy a meal out at a lovely restaurant with friends. It's better than Taco Bell drive through any day ?My friend and I really enjoyed our time together because of this wonderful place ❤️

Favorite Mexican food in the area! Often, mexican restaurants in Oregon all tend to taste the same, but El Tap stands apart. Great service, ambiance, drinks, and food is always quality. Chips, salsa, and beans are complimentary as you take your seat. Dont even have to ask for refils as they are brought before asking even during busy dinners. We make the drive from out of town and come back time after time

UpdatePlaced a to go over through the phone and attempted to pick it up.The worker behind the counter told me it was being prepped. She proceeded to immediately speak in Spanish to the other person at the front desk laughing at how the food for the fat Arab " El Árabe Gordo " was given out to someone else.I grew up in Mexico and can speak fluently. I immediately called them out and started shouting in full TV novela volume.Best part of all is after I called them out on it they were trying to make excuses about how I don't look Mexican.Doesn't excuse you laughing how you knew you gave my food to someone else. Lied in English to my face believing I didnt understand you making fun of me.Don't wast your time here*While I was waiting in the lobby for a take-out order. I had no less than 4 employees asking if I had been helped. This place runs like clockwork!

What a great experience this place is. Walking in is a feast for the eyes for the color and motifs of Mexico combined with hand carved woodwork. When w arrived we were greeted warmly and attended to quickly by the house who seated us and one of the many booths.The menu was also colorful and full of different options including several vegetarian and many traditional dishes.When the food arrived, we were amazed at the portion sizes. Plan on bringing home leftovers to enjoy. I had the vegetarian fajitas which came in two plates - one for some of the fillings and another sizzling hot cast iron plate of perfectly sauteed vegetables Plus three small tortillas.Everything was delicious and fresh, the service excellent. I would highly recommend this restaurant.
