Zapata Mexican Restaurant Reviews
We had a group of 30 Jeeps stop in there after the Halls Christmas parade and our entire group had 1 server. At first I was a bit concerned but he was phenomenal! All of our orders were taken correctly, the food was hot and amazing, and it all came out together! I’ve eaten there a bunch and always had excellent services and delicious food!
Delicious food! I’m surprised it isn’t busier, but I’m guessing it hasn’t been open long. I recently moved to Halls, and I’ve found my favorite Mexican restaurant in the area! Queso was great, margs were great, and food was perfect! Also never had better charro beans. Anyone in the area needs to check it out!
We absolutely love Zapata! All of their servers are great, food service is always so fast, and the food is excellent!
Menu
Zapata Mexican Restaurant offers an excellent dining experience with delicious food, great service, and a beautiful, clean, and well-lit interior. Known for its generous portions and reasonable prices, the restaurant features exceptional margaritas that attract many customers. Regulars particularly enjoy the "Queso Fondido" appetizer and the welcoming staff.
The restaurant's salsa is perfectly balanced, with the right amount of cilantro and onion, and customers have praised dishes like the fajita chimichanga, authentic flautas with flour tortillas, and the al pastor taco with fresh pineapple. Recent diners have highlighted the steak fajitas and the burrito Zapata, which is filled with steak, chicken, and lots of vegetables, all covered with cheese and cooked perfectly. The staff is friendly, and the restaurant and restrooms are kept clean, making it a favorite spot for many.
