I ordered the quesadilla plate and was blown away by how yummy the flour tortillas are! You can't get tortillas that taste this good back in Houston! Plus the customer service was off the charts, the young server lady kindly warned me not to touch...Read More

Place has gone down hill. I have ate at this restaurant since 2019. I have recommended this restaurant to many people. Until I heard rumors of the health inspections failing the restaurant. Makes since as to why the restaurant was closed for a long period of time. I figured it was due to family situations but in all actuality it was to cover up closure of the restaurant due to the abundance of rats and roach infestation. So they painted the walls and claimed to renovated restaurant. The server today explained to me about the health inspectors and all their rules. Which grossed me out because I could only imagine what “rules” the didn’t follow and reminded me of the closure. Even with cosmetic painting of walls, it’s smells of sewage from what I assume to be the old pipes in the restroom (hope not from food in kitchen). You can make a place “look” pretty but is it sanitary. I already couldn’t eat there without the smell of restroom. I wanted to leave but my husband wanted to eat there in hopes the food is good as it was before. Then to find out by frequent customers that the reason food was sour in taste today is because they cook on Sunday and freeze and warm up food to be served until they make fresh batch the weekend for the service of next week. These customers recommended that the food is better the beginning of the week, but don’t recommend eating at Zapata towards the end of the week. Nothing is fresh. They microwaved the menudo that I ordered so hot it took an hour to cool. Not to mention the menudo smelled like old rags and tastes of old pork. It wasn’t fresh at all. The tortillas had no flavor and powdery. The breakfast tacos are made with huge flavorless tortillas and filled with (I counted) ten potatoes and shredded cheese. I couldn’t tell if I was eating a taco or just a tortilla. I was trying to give this place benefit of doubt but was hard cause I could smell the menudo I ordered wasn’t fresh. I have eaten the menudo at Zapata before so I knew they could make some good menudo. But today I smelled it and even tasted it. And to my surprise it tasted like it smelled and the pork tasted sour. I told the manager and he said it was made fresh daily. I said sure and that I wasn’t going to eat it and get sick. He said I had to pay for it and argued with me. An actual manager should know better in how to treat a customer. The cashier didn’t know how to delegate the difference of talking to a customer or one of her friends off the streets. I would travel 30 mins to eat at Zapatas to support small businesses and to eat what used to be eatable food. I would rather eat at Taco Bell before I would ever eat there. I should of listened to the people who live in Taylor who know about their town and all their dirty little nasty secrets of Zapatas.
