"The food was fantastic it was the very best burrito I have had in years. This is fine food at a great price. When it was brought to the table I commented to the server that this was the largest and nicest burrito I had ever seen. I instantly knew I could not finish that burrito it was gigantic. The quality of the ingredients were amazing. If you are thinking a Taco Bell burrito you are a universe away from being right. It starts off with chips and dip and the dip was fantastic. This place seems small but it's not this is a place where you can take the family or come alone and enjoy a great meal. The staff are exceptionally friendly and efficient and very fast. While you are waiting for your order look around the place it is jammed packed with things to look at that are hanging on the wall or even the ceiling. I really enjoyed the bar area as it was maxed out with bottles of liquor and themed decorations. I highly recommend this place. I'm going to say that again, I highly recommend this place. I just moved to Bigfork and I know this is going to be a regular haunt for me. If you're on vacation and just passing through please put this on your itinerary and I promise you this is a place you will remember and you won't regret it. The parking lot is clean easy in Easy out and the outside of the business is clean and attractive as well as the inside. They except cash or debit or credit cards. There is handicap parking. The entrance is not handicap friendly but go anyway make the effort. They have a bar that you can sit drink have a meal or you can choose the tables. I chose the bar and I met a lot of local people that were engaging and extremely nice. They were the type of people that if you saw them again you would buy them a cup of coffee or lunch. The next time I go I'm going to be sure to be very hungry because the portions are gigantic. I took a picture of the bar area and I'm posting with this review be sure to look at it and zoom in because it's full of decorations that are unusual and fun to see. Last but not least the bar can fix you just about anything. I saw the bartender make several martinis and specialized to order drinks. I sure wished I had had a girlfriend to take with me if you do be sure to call her and ask her to get ready for a good time because this is the place to impress your date.

The shrimp fajitas plate was precisely what I needed after a long day on the water. I asked about the level of spiciness, and it was just right to excite my taste buds. The shrimp, vegetables, and rice were all flavorful. The beans were a bit unique, but they complemented the dish nicely. The chips and salsa were tasty as well.

I strongly suggest that you consider bringing in a new chef. Sadly, the tacos and burritos I ordered were quite disappointing. The flour tortillas were subpar, and the meats tasted like they were sourced from a large supplier. Additionally, the use of shredded cheddar cheese was out of place and contributed to an inauthentic taco experience. It seems unlikely that anyone in the kitchen has experience with true Mexican cuisine. Overall, it was a real letdown. Food: 1 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 5

We’ve found the best Mexican food since moving to the Flathead! The flavors are fantastic, the portions are generous, and the presentation is attractive. However, I was a bit disappointed that there was a charge for chips and salsa; I believe it should be complimentary unless no entrée is ordered. The salsa is noteworthy, being chunkier and better seasoned than what you typically find at most restaurants. We really enjoyed our meal and will definitely be back many times!

Extremely poor service. We stopped to eat and there were two empty tables No one was behind us in line. We were told they don't seat 2 people at a 4 person table. The wait for an empty 2 person table was 30 minutes. We have eaten many times over the years We won't be stopping anymore. They don't take reservations so it's first come first serve. Apparently they don't honor this policy. We felt discriminated against. Went to the Taco restaurant down the street and were seated right away at a 4 person table. The food was good. From now on if we want Mexican food we won't be stopping at El Topo Betsey Ellis Service: 1

Adding on to the reply I received from El Topo regarding our rating. no, we did not eat all our food it was awful and we waited 40 minutes no one checked on us until end of our mealwow, this is your response? I did tell the waitress that our food was not good but didn’t want to make a big deal. She never asked why we didn’t like it and said she was sorry. You say I was fabricating the facts? What a statement. Not nice and not true. Reviews are important when you are paying a lot of money for your meal. The person responding here is not accepting the fact that the food was terrible. We were kind to the waitress and left a 20% tip. We did not have an attitude as you say, we just wanted to have...
