La Tapatia Restaurant – Authentic Mexican Cuisine in Boise

Delicious food and friendly service, will definitely come back again!

Traveling out of town and live in a town that has more Mexican food restaurants than you can count on two hands. The tacos al pastor burrito here blew everything I've ever had out of the water! The girls were friendly and the food was fast and hot. If ever back in town I would definitely eat here again.

Stayed at the hotel next door and needed a bite to eat. Went at lunch time and it wasn't too busy. It was a bit pricey but overall good food. The cheese enchilada and tamale combo was good. The best part about this place? They bring salsa and refried beans to start! If you're looking for a place to curve your Mexican craving, this isn't a bad option!

Love that this is a small local place. Food was good. Service fast and friendly. BUT... I checked the menu out on line for carry out. Ordered two combo platters listed at $13.99 each. When I picked up the food, one was $19.99 and the other $18.99. They need to put up a website or figure out how to update their menu on the site that comes up on google search.

It's a little weird. They're supposed to be open till 10:00 on Saturdays. We got there at 8:00 but there were only two other tables that were still eating, and by 9:00 the staff was trying to close up since no one else had come in. They wouldn't tell me he price of the drinks before ordering them which rude but it is what it is. The place was super clean I guess just don't expect to be able to come in at the last minute.

The Steak Azteca is the dish to get, trust me. You’ll get juicy marinaded chicken breast soaking in a dark savory spicy sauce. You’ll also get beans and rice with your choice of corn or flour tortillas. The chicken also has a lot of cheese on it. I liked putting my rice in the juice. The chips and salsa is alright. The food is a little pricier than similar restaurants, but the food is good quality. I recommend La Tapatía.

Carnitas were not traditional Michoacán style but very tasty none the less. The burrito Colorado I took to go and ate it for lunch the next day was still quite solid… and they had Tecate! Tecate is nothing to brag about but I live near there so it was cool to see. I would eat there again next time I’m in town.

I've had a few of their plates and they were all good- but I will review the tacos here. Taste trumps all, and these have all. The Al Pastor is great, the Chorizo is good, even the chicken is delicious. Warm, soft tortillas with the right amount of time on the grill. Good salsas and topped with Cilantro and onions. Plain and simple-good tacos. They provide salsa, beans and chips. The price per taco is decent, slightly higher than other taco joints. But the value is definitely there. Plus- military discount. Always nice!
