Reviews
My home town had a place named Zapata’s when I was a kid. I asked the staff if this place may be related, but I think it’s just coincidence because of Zapata’s history.
Regardless, this place did not disappoint. Classic Mexican American cantina vibes and flavors. The chips and queso with salsa was classic and complimentary with dinner, very good. The sides were hot and fresh, the beer ice cold, and the entrees were delicious. My husband said it’s his new favorite Mexican spot.
I love love love the food and service. I just wish the windowsills were cleaner.
However I ordered the cocktail and it clearly says it has oysters and shrimp and when they brought it out. It didn’t have oysters. If your dish is missing one of the key ingredients in it then you have to tell the customer… I ate a little through it and poked around and couldn’t find any. The waiter kind of left me alone for a while and I was waiting on him It was probably 10 or 15 minutes or so or the table that had an empty glass on it as well before he finally got back to the table and I asked him about it and he said yeah we don’t have oysters…. I expect my tab to have been altered but it wasn’t. I specifically ordered it for raw oysters so it was pretty disappointing. He could have at least comped me for one of the beers or something to make up for it but instead I still ended up paying over $30 for two beers and a cocktail with about six shrimp in it. It had more cut up vegetables than avocado than anything. Because the michelada was so good I will be back and try something else again and maybe I’ll change my review. Wouldn’t mind a coupon either because I really don’t feel like I should have paid full price for half a meal.

Update
Came back and tried the fajita nachos. They were better than Chelinos and Sannarcos by a long shot. Well seasoned meat. And the michelada were on point again. The male server makes them phenomenally.
This might be my new favorite restaurant
Edit: rice was crunchy on every other bite, definitely not fresh…
I loved the music and colorful interior that greeted us and the selection of queso and salsas did a great job at whetting our appetite for the meal to come.
The portions were generous and I was not disappointed with my Chicken Taco Soup which came with a side of rice. The aromas and flavors of the food were spot on and our meal to wrap up the evening hit a spot.
Looking forward to my next visit for the drink offerings.
