numerous times.\u00a0 Everyone who has eaten there, that I have talked to, said it is a very tasty place to eat.\u00a0 Their menu had plenty of entr\u00e9es to choose from.\u00a0 The house specials all sounded delicious.\u00a0 They had numerous beverages and appetizers to choose from as well.\u00a0 I love chicken fajitas and could not keep myself from ordering them, even though whenever I go to a Mexican restaurant I order fajitas.\u00a0 I did not follow my rule of trying something new today, but I could not resist. \u00a0I forgot to take a picture of the menu :(.<\/p>\n<p>Right as we were seated, the waitress brought out chips and salsa.\u00a0 I think they like to fill you up on the chips before they even bring out the appetizers or meals because they constantly kept refilling the chip baskets.\u00a0 I am a huge fan of chips and salsa, but I wish the salsa at El Tapatio were hotter.\u00a0 It had a strong cilantro taste and was very mild.\u00a0 I still ate my fair share because nothing can beat fresh homemade salsa.\u00a0 Like I mentioned earlier, I ended up ordering the chicken fajitas.\u00a0 The sizzling mixture of chicken, green peppers, and onions came out on a skillet along with another plate full of beans, rice, guacamole, lettuce, and sour cream.\u00a0 Three wheat tortillas were also served.\u00a0 I love guacamole with fajitas.\u00a0 Overall, my meal was very tasty.\u00a0 I could not come close to finishing it, so I had a nice portion left over for dinner.\u00a0 My meal had a lot of colors to eat.\u00a0 The arrangement of the food on the plate was nice and looked appetizing.\u00a0 It seemed like all my classmates enjoyed their food as well.\u00a0 Due to the large amount of food that came with my meal and all the chips and salsa I devoured, I had no room for dessert.\u00a0 Their dessert menu was pretty slim too, but I feel like more people go there for the main entr\u00e9es and beverages.\u00a0 I enjoyed my experience at El Tapatio.<\/p>\n<p><a

someone would ask me about El Tapatio, I would tell him or her that the food was delicious.\u00a0 Honestly, I thought it was just like La Fiesta, which is also a tasty Mexican restaurant in the north side of Sioux City.\u00a0 Depending on where the people were at, I would recommend either place.\u00a0 The service at El Tapatio was normal.\u00a0 The waiters and waitresses were very friendly.\u00a0 I do no think they were expecting this large of a group, but we still received our food in a timely manner though.\u00a0 The prices were pretty cheap too for the amount of food we got with each of our orders.\u00a0 If I am in the Morningside area and want Mexican food, I can see myself going to El Tapatio again.\u00a0 Next time I go there, I want to try new entr\u00e9e off the menu though.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We went to El Tapatio today for lunch.\u00a0 This restaurant serves authentic Mexican food.\u00a0 I had never been to El Tapatio until
