“My wife and I tried this place while being there for their Tacos, Vatos, Y Lowriders car show and were very happy with the food. The place was absolutely packed because of the show and Mexican independence day but we still got our food pretty quickly and it was delicious. I think the Churro was the best I have ever had.

Vegetarian options: My wife had a vegan taco and loved it.“

“I see some negative comments. I don't believe the reviewers realize what Zapata is about. Frankly, I find it refreshing that dishes are not smothered in cheese and drowning in sauce. Zapata is about combining flavors, and not marching to the beat of the typical Americanized version of Mexican food to which we have become accustomed. I recommend it to all my friends.“

“Best tripa tacos in greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area. Can't go wrong with any of the tacos on the menu, but tripa is my favorite for both the crisp and the chew. Love the menudo and wish it was available every day instead of just the weekend.Super quick service and always delicious salsa.

Parking: This section of Madison Ave usually has plenty of street parking on both sides“

“Muy ricos tacos y tortas. We were visiting the area and decided we wanted something authentic and stopped here. Everything was really good, tacos, tortas, service, prices as well. The place is small only a couple of tables and they played music which was fine with us. Pero todo muy rico.“
