Good friends recommended El Zarape. They were so right.
We were met at the door, warmly welcomed, and walked to a table. Decor was fun and everything was clean. Fresh Guacamole lived up to its name. Fresh and delicious. Tacos Al pastor were savory … some of the best ever. Rice and beans were AMAZING! So so good.
Our waitress was attentive and the host checked in near the end of our meal. When leaving, staff wished us well. What a great team there!!
Hidden gem!
Just outside the main downtown of Wheaton, this unassuming spot is well worth a visit.
Affordable and approachable, the food here is presented deliciously simply and with care.
We've enjoyed the enchiladas, tacos, chimichanga, but my favorite has to be the green chili pork. So rich and flavorful.
Service is as warm as the tortilla chips!
Very good food & service!! Will definitely be back! The salsa is excellent, good drinks. Our group had quesadillas, floutas, tacos. the pork was excellent!
Great food, so casual and low key. Food was fantastic. Hubby had the longy tacos - preferred the beef though both were great. I had the enchiladas and they were also excellent. Loved the warm chips and orange salsa. Great place to stop with parking lot.
High-end Mexican street food. Tacos are smaller than your used to but very high quality. Not expensive. Really good.
Excellent and friendly service. Food was extremely tasteful
Excellent food in specific dishes and basic classics! THE MARGARITAS! The best, if you get the premio ~ tres generaciones tequilia ~ this was recommended to me by the lovey waitress early on in my time there and does not disappoint! I've always ordered this one. ~ Pollo en Mole Puebla-Style$13.00 ~ Half chicken simmered in mole sauce is my personal favorite! I also love the jalapeno cream sauce. I love the carnitas. I love the onion and cilantro. My adult kids adore the burgers. ~ There is no better waitress than Maricsa. She has been there for decades, so that is a testament to the place as a whole. The manager Ed warmly greets regular customers. I come from the city to go back to the place that feels like home. I wish they continued the tradition of margaritas 'to go' that was a staple in the pandemic. Like all people and places and things we get to know well over time ~ including ourselves ~ there are imperfections (bathroom!) but I love it there!
The staff was amazing. Please inside is kind of small but it was very nice.the food was hot and fresh! The salsa was amazing and served warm.
I ordered the enchiladas ( one chicken and one cheese ) and a medium horchata. The enchiladas were good, I definitely liked the chicken one better than the plain cheese and the salsa verde was tasty. The marinated chicken had a savory flavor that was similar to tinga but different in a good way. The meal came with rice and refried beans that were 10/10 and a small bag of chips and salsa. Would give them 4.5 if I could because I am definitely excited to see what else they have but today’s meal was a just a little pricey for what it is.
Great resturaunt! My wife and I love this place. Everything I have had here was top notch. The last time I had the Huevos Ranchero’s. So good! My wife had tacos and said they were excellent! Highly recommended!
