El Tapatio Mexican Restaurant

El Tapatio holds a D-minus grade and ranks in the bottom tier of comparable restaurants, scoring better than only 11 percent of similar facilities in the county. The facility experienced a dramatic spike in February 2025 with multiple critical violations centered on temperature control and hand hygiene that triggered a mandatory follow-up inspection, though the March 2025 follow-up visit found no violations. Since that recovery, standards have slipped again: an August 2025 inspection revealed recurring issues with food contact surface sanitation and inadequate certification of the person in charge, suggesting the improvements made in spring did not hold. The current trajectory shows instability rather than sustained progress.
