This is one of the best restaurants. The Camarones la mojo de ajo are really good I live in Hesperia, and I always stop here when I'm in this city

Freshly made authentic Mexican meals. The consomme soup is DELICIOUS and we order it every time. Friendly, kind staff. Tapatia is our favorite restaurant in this area; we're surprised it's not packed every time. A must try!

Delicious, hand-made tortillas! The food is very scrumptious. The horchata was very good, and I'm picky about my horchata. The tacos and mulita were of very good size. The salsas (greed and red) were tasty, not runny, and had a solid flavor and spice. Took extra home with me. Plenty of drinks, I recommend the fresh aguas near the front desk. Very clean, new restaurant. TVs were playing the latin channels. They have a bathroom behind the store, and you'll have to ask for the key and walk behind the building. Plenty of parking.

Great service, food, and drinks! Clean restaurant. Horchata and jamaica were perfect to me. Enjoyed the asada, pastor, and breaded fish tacos. Would dine again if I am ever in the area.

EVERYTHING we ordered was fresh and homemade. The marlin tacos and octopus tacos were a 12 on a scale of 1 - 10. Tacos with hand made tortillas with CHEESE on the outside. OMG to die for, so yummy.

Amazing place, and surprised it's not packed whenever we dine in. Food is traditional and extremely well done at a high level. Legit chef back there, and the waitress is very nice, and makes delicious, FRESH margaritas. (Mango Marg is... Wow) Everything on the menu is good. Consomme de birria and other birria dishes are great. Shrimp empanadas, flautas, chicken wings, go down the list. Only problem is I wish I could eat here more. Diamond in Fontana. Heads above other taco restaurants in area. I could go on, but just eat here so the chef knows what they've got goin on!
