Zapatas Cantina Mexican Restaurant

Loved the food also I liked the decoration and the colors in this place. In addition, the service is wonderful as well.

Excellent food! Expertly prepared, reasonably priced, and big selection of Mexican food. Great date place - nicely appointed. Had the chicken Taco Salad which was great. Fried Ice Cream also delicious. Service was also quick,

I ordered the street tacos and my son ordered the world best tacos and we had the guacamole fresco and EVERYTHING was delicious! The chips and salsa as well! Everything just flowed well with each other! The staff was very friendly and we loved the experience! Would absolutely recommend 10 out of 10!

They have great ambience. We had the chicken with red ranchero sauce, the chicken was tender and the sauce good. This is not a tex-mex restaurant. The service was good also. We went to come back and try the chicken with chocolate. Recommend this restaurant.

From where I reside, the 30 minute drive is worth it! (Especially with Charlotte traffic). My first time, the wait was awful, food came late, and my food had tomatoes and onions. When I ordered I asked if they could not come with, and he said yes. Of course I sat there picking through my food and did not enjoy. I summed it up to them having a bad night. We only came back the next two times because a manager had gave us our food for practically nothing, and we only paid for our drinks. During those next two times the service was better, and my fiancé enjoyed food. My food was good as well, but again it had the tomatoes and onions. I asked both my waiters if the food came with it, and both said no. Again, I picked through my food. This sort of made it not as exciting to come here, and I wouldn’t unless my fiancé really wanted it. We simply didn’t come for a long time, until tonight because my fiancé wants Mexican (he loves the food here). We go in and immediately we were seated. As soon as we sit, our waiter comes to get our drinks and someone else brings our chips and salsa. It’s clear to see I DO NOT like tomatoes! Worst case scenario, if it’s too difficult to exclude, I might eat depending on my mood. Obviously this means I hardly eat salsa, and I mean hardly. Tonight the salsa was good! I don’t know what it was, but it was so FRESH! And for me to actually eat it, my fiancé was shocked I liked it so much. He gets his usual and I get a taco bowl thing. I ask the waiter about tomatoes and guacamole, and he says it won’t come with. I ask a few more times to make sure, and he’s positive it won’t come with. Food comes super quick, and the bowl is PERFECT! I ate the whole thing, with no picking! Chicken was juicy and flavorful, and paired with the bowl and toppings I enjoyed my meal. This made me happy because as mentioned above the drive is one thing, and then my food not being what I would like. Today changed my mind about this place, and I simply had to leave a good note. My fiancé is definitely happy that he can continue to enjoy his food, without me having to stop somewhere after and get something else. I honestly have nothing bad to say here. Only suggestion is that the booths are a little tiny for big chested women, but this can be fixed by sitting at a table. Give this place a shot and you will enjoy it. Especially those looking for authentic Mexican food, you will not be disappointed eating here.
