Oh my lanta, this place is ridiculously good! Best Mexican food in town bar none. I kept it simple and got a beef and chicken quesadilla with lettuce and tomatoes. The veggies were fresh, the chicken and beef were seasoned to perfection, and the tortilla was wonderfully crispy. Wow, just thinking back on it makes me hungry, and my friends very much enjoyed their meals as well. At the end of it, I did not at all feel I overpaid, even with a beer, shot of tequila, and after tip. The only downside to this restaurant is that it felt a little crowded, but once we sat down, it was pretty cozy.

It is a good Mexican place. The prices are pretty standard. The fajitas were cooked beautifully! There are vegetarian option listed. They can be made vegan by asking for no cheese or sour cream. Make sure they take note of that. Mine came with both, but they gladly replaced the plate when I brought it up. They were very friendly. It is a small room. I would recommend giving them a visit!

First time being there and having seen this location in the past and its space utilization. I can say they are making the best of what they have for space.

This was our second time here. Last year we went right after they opened and we were thoroughly disappointed and had decided never to return. But my daughter in law said it was her new favorite Mexican place, so we decided to give it a try again. I am glad we did as it was very delicious and generous portions. I will definitely return again! Sadly I didn’t remember to take any photos.

My first time visiting Tapatios was excellent. I went with the Molcajete Fiesta and a large Texas Margarita. I’ve never tried anything like it before.

For a new Mexican restaurant to try wasn’t bad definitely better than Mi Rancho in Bemidji. Getting into the building is difficult unless you come in the back way from KFC. The parking lot was a mess and nobody seemed to know how to park properly. I could see getting in and out being a nightmare on a busy day we were lucky and went during lunch hours.

I’m writing this after two visits about seven months apart. Tapatios has good food, reasonable prices, and friendly thorough service. They have all the usual Mexican food offerings, including my favorite, Chili Relleno. Being a former KFC, the overall building is on the small side, but even when the dining room is full, it’s not too noisy. Prices are reasonable. I’m very happy to have this restaurant in Bemidji.

Another new Mexican restaurant in town, first impression very small on the inside probably not a good place to go for a large crowd or big birthday party, I would suggest call ahead for sure if over 5 people. Today was a Friday and we got there at 4:00 pm. It was a good time for today because it started filling up quick by the time we left before 5 there was already 10 people in line extending out the door. We were quickly seated with our chips That were freshly fried, and salsa which was not very chunky but had good tomato flavor with hints of cilantro, next to no heat, which is ok because I was very happy to see they had my El Yucateco Habanero red hot sauce that added great heat and extra flavor. Yummm, We ordered the Choriqueso cheese sauce (queso cheese with chorizo) appetizer, again very good, I ordered a naked tamale but came with taco meat on top, won’t get the tamale again, I don’t mind the fact that masa was too thick because most of them up north are, my problem is that this particular one had absolutely NO seasoning in the masa, which made it very bland to were even the good amount of meat filling inside could not help it. The taco meat on top was just like you would get at taco johns (disappointing), I’m thinking this is what they put in their tacos as well. So I was not a fan. My plain cheese enchilada was typically good, I order them naked as well so I can add my queso cheese on top. My hubby, got the molcajete fiesta, this was by far the best dish of the evening, full of chicken and beef fajitas, shredded pork (carnitas) chorizo, mushrooms, squash and onions, they forgot the squash but made up for it with all the meat, hubby was very happy, they served this with a side of rice, beans, lettuce, sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo and heated flour tortillas. Rice and guacamole had little or no flavor, but then the molcajete made up for it. Waiter we had was very good, he did seem to be getting overwhelmed but pulled thru. Would it be worth a 15 person line wait, NO, I would really wait till the crowd subsides before trying. We have had better from other areas up here, but, it was good typical Mexican food. We didn’t really think it was anything special, but, Will we go back? Yes of course we will, there is more to try.

Excellent scratch cooking. Maybe it’s an American thing, but no cheese on tacos? The fish tacos were great… tres hombres was my husband’s dish and he gave it 5 stars as well. Fast service, clean.

Food is good, however twice in the past couple weeks I did not receive everything that was part of my takeout order. Hard to eat fajitas without the tortillas, no salsa, asked for it* after driving 26 miles home it’s not nice to find the order wasn’t complete. Do better with takeout orders and you will get 5 stars!!!!
