Enchilada with veggies and mole was superb. Also, the chicken enchilada with green sauce was excellent. Dessert was fried ice cream which was tasty. Appropriate Spanish music playing in the background added to the atmosphere. We will return.Parking: Park in back and enter through the backdoor.

Waitress was lovely. Authentic, except the queso (thick and lumpy) and pre-made margaritas (like drinking a huggie.)

I did not dine here, however I did arrange for my client to dine here as a thank you for their business .. staff was very helpful and called me as I requested so I could pay the bill. My clients had a fabulous experience and so grateful for staff assisting me with the arrangements ?☺️?

I didn't taste the food here. The restaurant is so dirty. There is a foul smell the moment you walk into the restaurant. The restaurant is filthy. The walls, carpet and tables are grimy. I'm amazed anyone would eat there. If the front of the restaurant is disgusting I can't imagine what the kitchen is like. There is no excuse for having a filthy restaurant. Even if you have no money to decorate you can at least clean. The carpet doesn't look or smell as if it's been cleaned since the 1970s. It's so gross.

Got two entrees to go they were SLOPPED into containers leaking sauces . No sour cream even tho I requested extra. Barmaid was sweet and I let her choose our meals. $31 + $9 tip(I bartend also overtipper) so disappointing. Wish I could post a pic.

Although somewhat obscure, it was recommended to us by a local familiar with the place. The environment was OK, nothing special, good service, but waiter did not know a word of Spanish. As for the food, we ordered fajitas, which were passable, but nothing exceptional. Prices were average for the meal though. Overall, a somewhat disappointing experience.

Best Mexican food in the city, the whole menu is awesome! Try the mole, it's one of the best in Cleveland.
I love Villa y Zapata Mexican Restaurant the food is delicious ? and authentic good portions and the price you can't beat. Their Margaritas are simply delicious! The staff are awesome. I would come again and again. Thank you so much. Genny Lopez

My family has been coming here for..30 years?! Never disappoints. Easily my favorite Mexican food. So good that my mom and I were underwhelmed by the food we ate IN Mexico. Came right back to 'Villa's' as soon as we got home lol

The food was great, the margarita not so much - typical sugary mix. Too bad they don't make their own Lime juice and simple syrup with real lime. We haven't been here in awhile and the place is run down and could use some primping, but the food was tasty and plentiful. I enjoyed the beef chimichanga with rice and beans and thoroughly enjoyed it at the restaurant and the next night reheated. My spouse had cheese enchiladas and thought they were very good. We asked to try their mole sauce and that too was tasty. If you eat here, you need to ignore the wear and tear, the carpet, and the lack of comfortable seating. Service was excellent too. Parking lot in back makes it well worth the trip.

Excellent, authentic food! It's savory and rich, best kept secret in Cleveland. The guacamole is so creamy it spreads like butter.Vegetarian options: Wonderful vegetarian options, the enchiladas with mole is the best!
Food was delicious!
