The new Plaza Tapatía is a big update from the old one. There’s a great variety of grocery items to choose from, a big meat and seafood section as well as a coffee bar, bakery, ice cream bar and candy land! The staff is very helpful and friendly. The buffet section has plenty of foods to choose from if you just want to stop in for lunch. Check it out!
Store is very clean, exceptional for an internationally oriented store, well stocked, and prices are reasonable to well below average. This store would be worth 5 stars but Im docking it one for two reasons. First, many of the employees I encountered did not understand English well, the store serves a lot of international customers who speak Spanish and that is the native language of most of the staff. Second, I was disappointed when I attempted to buy 1/4 of a pound of scallops. The guy kept asking if I said 4 pounds, I replied no, ONE Fourth then brought out a calculator and typed 0.25 to try to make it clear that is what I want. The guy acted bewildered. A second employee told me that they simply will not sell less than one pound. That is ironic. I was able to buy 1/2 pound of chicken stir fry from another employee. I think someone did not know the seat of their pants from a hole in the ground.
Our vehicle was broken into, and got my I Phone stolen on September 06, 2021 around 6:30 PM on labor day while going into the store to grab some beef ribs.After realizing the incident, I went back inside the store to seek help since they have security camera installed on the building, unfortunately I received no assistance up until I ran in to a Franklin Township Police Officer who was on duty walked in to the store. I approached the Officer who was willing to help, after showing him where our vehicle was parked, the officer insisted we went inside the store and see if we find anything from the camera. We got no immediate help even after walking up to the customer service desk, then the Officer went to go ask a cashier for help, after telling the cashier about the incident, she replies Again, which indicated that Theft was NORM to them in that store. We waited for a mere 20 minutes to finally told us after taking the officer into a room that a spot where we parked our vehicle was not covered by the Security Camera.I suggest you to ensure the safety of your belongings by parking your vehicle in the range of Security Camera Coverage and possibly leave someone in the vehicle while shopping, since our car was broken into easily even though it was locked. Beware of the management of the store as well since it took us more than 30 minutes to finally got help with what we needed even with the presence of a law enforcement officer.Be Cautious and be Aware people..
The new store is amazing! Holy crow.... everything you could ever need. Bakery, butcher, deli and bar. Even a well stocked party supply area. This is a must stop store any time we are in Columbus.
Awesome place...The meat department had lots to choose from.
Fantastic! it is not just a grocery store. They have prepared food that was delicious. They have a great selection of meat and seafood. Omg there is a completely separate shop just for candy called candy land. My kids loved the ice cream momma loved the full bar. You have to experience this place.
This place has is little Mexico! I love that they have freshly made, hot and ready to go food and a place to get drinks. They have it all!! Very friendly and helpful staff!!
Wow... what a great place... So much selection and the meat department is INCREDIBLE.. so much selection of all the different cuts... reminded me of when Id go to the meat market in Nuevo Laredo with my Grandfather when I was a kid!? 👍
Brand new location. Grocery store with Excellent quality fresh ceviche and so much more. Sit inside or out. Liquor available . Ice cream and coffee stations (Crimson Cup).
I love this store, i have shopped at Tapatia since 2003 i believe when they first opened. Great service, clean, fair prices and good meat. Gracias
Always have always enjoyed the business and food. But, I made my first trip inside the new one today. Wow, its really nice beyond nice.
It was great it had a big selection of things. The filled churros were good the people were very sweet I cant wait to go back.
Really nice place, plently of choices. 1st time there, just looked around
First of all, I want to try EVERYTHING here. The store is light, bright, and well laid out. There were so many ingredients that I could only get on-line, now just a moments drive away. We bought baked goods, candy and some bread. And a case of Jarritos in Ts favorite flavors. We will definitely be back!
Loved it!! Great place to find things you cant get at a traditional market.
Be careful the lady at the bar likes to steal stuff i forget my phone in the restroom and she found it and wanted me to pay her for my phone she kept my phone case and she was got imto her facebook be aware
Great place to purchase your every day groceries. Friendly people and great selection of products.
Yikes!! Very expensive !!!It’s a Latino grocery, looks fairly new and there is a good selection of products, BUT, relative to other Latino stores in town their prices are way too highI would very much avoid and save your hard earned dollars !!!
So excited this market opened up close by! The bakery item are is large and jam packed full of great options, the prepared food area is just as impressive! If youre looking for an impressive Mexican marketplace this is it!
Would have been 5 star. No public restrooms. Food was great. My friend found Champoy which she had in California.
Very good but no prices posted for any of the prepared foods.
Wow! Very impressed with this little place, very clean. Everyone was extra nice and the bakery and icecream shop was amazing! Great prices! Definitely worth the trip. Will be back.
I love the new store they have now. Very nice place and much bigger than the old place.
Wrong address. Could never find the place. How can someone from out of town make it here when the address is wrong?
Great store with an excellent variety of products. I lived in Mexico City for 6 years and this store truly represents a modern Mexican grocery!
If you are looking for Mexican that isnt Americanized in Cbus- head over! This is on the West-side across from Hollywood Casino. The Molcajete is a dish of various meat, seafood, cheese and cactus that will speak to your heart. They have homeade corn tortilla. They have live bands, a traditional Mexican sweets shop that has the most amazing handmade icecream, flavored water (the cucumber will curl your toes) and fresh fruit popsicles. Attached is the Latin grocery that has an amazing bakery, huge meat counter and a sweets shop for every Mexican candy you could every want. I wish my video would post bc these pics dont do it justice. Buy ALL THE THINGS!
Too pricey, associates not helpful and rude!
This was my third trip to this new store. I live out east but really enjoy the store.
Outstanding baked goods! Meat department is fantastic!There are at least a dozen things that you can only find at this sort of grocery. The staff is super friendly. If the customer doesnt speak Spanish, most of them speak sufficient English to get the job done. (Mandatory masks muffle sounds, causing difficulties for old, deaf guys like me.) Thank you, to the staff, for your patience with me.
Pretty authentic tasting Mexican restaurant + market! Prices are a little higher than im used to but worth it considering I wasnt expecting to find a place like this out in the middle of Ohio! Visiting from Texas and it was quite a pleasant surprise! Highly recommended if youre looking for some really good Mexican food/groceries.
Great food variety! Best produce quality I have found in OH. Very friendly employees.
I have no idea what I got from the bakery section but its all delicious.
Good selection of items. Lots of ready to eat to try. Bakery has many treats to choose from, but go early for the most. I can’t recommend the carnitas, though. Ordered a pound and after taking out the bones, fat, gristle and tripe, I had less than a half a pound, not a good deal at $9.
Fantastic place!! Tons of food made on site. Lots of different meats. Wide variety of spices. Its a really great place to shop.
I absolutely love the new store. Its big and has a massive meat and poultry selection.
Great variety of food. Pastries and bread are great! Will definitely be back.
Bigger than the old one. Variety of meat, veggies and fruit. They have small section of bread for now. I like it. Just make sure they charging you correctly.
I had a really nice person in the meat department help me out and he was bilingual and everyone I spoke to that worked there was friendly especially the gentleman who help with sanitizing and collecting carts
Great looking store. Gran opening today. Look forward to shopping this store. Great for the community.
The new store is amazing. They now have prepared foods, larger meat selection and an ice cream vendor.
Love the meat department hands down best.
The new location is amazing. I wish I had a bigger stomach.
Great selection and their produce is so fresh!
Beautiful store with great selections.
Excellent the new store is so clean and neat. So much to choose from
Fantastic customer service
Whole updated vibe even ready to eat foods that were never there before bigger selections not only Mexican but American as well even an outdoor dining area and a bar
Beautiful market, great staff!
I am a repeat customer. Everything here is authentic and fantastic. Absolutely delicious.
Its a very brand new grocery store. The Spanish Mexicans on Georgesville Road
Awesome mexican super market
Great place, I loved
Expensive, not fresh at all, and rude customer service!!! Definitely last time I shop there.
Went yesterday and had the worst service ever at check out the guys to begin didnt want to take a piñata down because he said it wasnt his job and then we the item did not have a price he told me can you go and take a picture so I know the price and was like I dont think thats the price you change it I just ended up leave those items.
Such an amazing store
Good store they just about everything
Awful place. Workers are always rude.
Very nice people and very clean ❤️
Love it !!!! The cafe be having yummy food !
First time I had ever been in this store. This is a great store. They have fresh meats in the back that you order by the pound. We had spent 40.00 and I got a variety of meat and other misc things. I highly recommend the chicken fajita meat. You cant go wrong. Its already seasoned and ready to go. The best chicken Ive ever had. The people are very nice too. The store is very clean and well organized. I will likely buy my meat from here for now on. The pricing is so good. I highly recommend....
Bigger, but seems like its missing some items I used to get.
Grocery store is awesome. Has everything you need, plus more. Their bakery is out of this world, so delicious, just a little too expensive on some desserts. The restaurant isnt bad. Food is pretty good, just think it depends who is cooking at that time, whether its delicious or just okay.
This place has roaches and mice. Check the health department reports. Its crazy theyre still in business. Nothing against the workers, just safety and health concerns management should consider before selling to the public.
Everything under one roof.
Good mexican store, deli and meats, vegetables/fruits, candy room and best of all mexican bread!
Great prices, friendly people! Every time my family goes everyone is so nice. Highly recommended.
I cant wait for their new, bigger store to open. This place is loaded with goodies, super fresh meat and friendly faces. Just be prepared for meat items like beef tongue (they are really big) and intenstines.
Good food and clean
One of the best Mexican store in Columbus, Ohio. It has a variety of selections. The meat department has the best selection of meats. They even have goat meat!
Every time I have gone to this store I have experienced bad service. Their prices are fair and their food and meats are good but their customer service can use improvement. All the employees from the lady in the bakery section to the butchers to the cashiers are ALL rude. No one really acknowledges you and they all have an attitude that makes it seem they hate their job. The cashiers always seemed rush. I understand they can get busy but they practically throw your groceries in the bags. As I mentioned the only reason I keep going back is because I really like their products. If this place does not make a change soon I feel they are going to loose business. Your employees are the face of your business. Very disappointed!
Amazing !!
Food is delicious. Waitresses are a disaster. The one we got kept forgetting to bring things we asked for. We also ordered food to go as soon as we arrived. We left after an hour and the order was still not ready. It was a simple dish. No excuse for it being late other than the waitress forgot to put it in. Definitely wont come back. There are many other delicious Mexican food places where service is highly priced.About the market. Every time I bought meat there if you dont eat it the same day, the very next day the meat is rotten even if you put it on the fridge.
I love going here because they have good deals, and very specific products that not other stores have. I love their candy section and bread. The restaurant is good too.
Best authentic Mexican food in town! Their flavored waters and giant margaritas are the bomb! Not to mention their fresh Mexican sweet bread is sooo good.
The grocery store is full of fresh produce and has a meat counter with a large amounts of choices for the whole family of fresh cut meats. They even have a separate room for kids party favors including pinatas and candy. Pretty amazing for such a a small store
Very nice place to eat. Good food and the piñon ice cream its amazing. Personally I like one server She s new but very helpful and great with customers. Had already tried another server and Rude, pusher, and not so friendly. But the food in the restaurant its great.
Good food clean place
Just open a must checkout place!!
I love the selection in the grocery store...and the restaurant has great sopes and chicken enchiladas.
Luved thissss❤❤
The service was awful. The waitress that served us seemed like she hated her job. The place was dirty. The menus had salsa/guacamole/ and who knows what other things spread all over them. The chips that they brought us were stale like they were from the past weekend. Some of the chips also has guacamole on them like if they were used before and mixed back in. My little daughter needed a high chair and the high chair they brought us didn’t have the secured straps. Also the high chair was filthy dirty. They should wipe down and clean the baby high chairs! The tacos were not bad. That’s probably the only thing that was descent. Will never go back and I hope you think twice before going. Just an honest review.
The store is great, good variety of Hispanic products. The restaurant is not, service is horrible and food is not that good lacks in flavor. We got half our order and twenty minutes later the second half.
Went into the carryout of the restaurant side and the person inside said he would help me and my friend but then he continues to sit down and ignore us. Next i call the store to possibly do a pickup but the lady didnt understand english and hung up the phone. This is not how you run a business. Food is amazing but service has been lacking lately idk who is managing it but please consider retraining your staff.
If you love delicious Mexican cuisine, a beautiful ambiance, a doting wait staff, visit La Plaza Tapatia. If you want to purchase your own Latino groceries, fresh baked goods, rich desserts, a beautiful selection of meats and seafood, visit the store that is adjacent to the entrance. Did I mention the live mariachi bands?
The store is great. Nice and clean
We we go there a lot. I love the selection of different fruits and vegetables and meats. they have all the good stuff
Authentic and well prepared food. Grocery also the best place for fresh produce.
By far the most authentic Mexican restaurant Ive experienced in Columbus! Clean dining room and restroom, friendly, accommodating service . Oh, about the food, yummy! Fantastic experience! Grocery store next door too!
Such a great Latino store. Has everything one may need to make authentic Hispanic cuisine. The fresh meat section (butcher/deli) is usually pretty busy but they do a pretty good job keeping it moving. The best part is the candy shop inside! Soooo many cool candies and treats from Mexico and Latin America! Oh and did I mention they also have an icecream shop?? Soooo yummy. But the one thing you MUST try if you stop there is the homemade Orange Juice they have up front. I could literally drink my weight in it, its that good! Prices are low compared to other Latino stores which is great! Just love it there!!!
They take forever for a little simple order which one they have on the menu
