I've been coming here as a kid and it is always a great expierence you should try huaraches here their so good

One of the more authentic Mexican restaurants in the area. Large servings at a fare price. Wait staff is great! All the dishes are worth trying, especially the Pozole, one of my favorites.

Great Mexican food!!! The prices are getting a bit up there but it's worth it as the food for dishes such as the huraches, burritos, and menudo.

I tried their happy hour burrito which is $7 and it is decently sized. I tried the carne asada burrito. The food is flavorful and the staff is wonderful. Especially this one elderly lady, she is the sweetest. I've come a few times that she has already recognized me. I have also tried their flan de caramelo & gotten their taco Tuesday specials (carne asada & chicken ) that are yummy. I like protein that is juicy and flavorful, I think it's like $6-7 dollars but worth it for the size. Would recommend if you're in the mood for tacos or burritos.

Favorite spot to get mulitas! During Valentine's Day they have a super good pink horchata. Their chips& salsa are super good too!

This place greets you while you walk in. There gringas are so fire. Horchata delicious

Zavala's has always been so delicious. I usually get a wet chicken burrito half mole half green sauce but today I tried their breakfast and let me tell you it was so good !!! I got the green chile Chilaquiles and a side of hashbrowns. Hashbrowns were crispy. had flavor Chilla Quiles had flavor. It also came with rice and refried beans. this is Definitely going to be one of my favorites to get again!

I was here about a month ago but this time I left a little disappointed since we had to wait about three minutes to get our order taken due to someone taking the wrong order and the cashier and another lady started arguing. Then a nice older lady helped us out took our order and brought us our food and sides. She was really nice and very friendly . The food was really good but the portions compared to last time I was here were significantly less. I recommend ordering chiles asados but be careful they are pretty spicy!!

Full disclosure I rarely eat Mexican food out. I was set it up for a party around the block. Of course my go to stress food is french fries . I said I was just going to go to Taco Bell to get french fries and everybody gave me a dirty look. They sent me here. I'm so glad they did. I got the carne asada fries minus the carne asada . everybody was so friendly and attentive. The salsa was so good. The restaurant is beautiful and clean. I definitely going back there. Thank you for my non-meat Carne Asada french fries they were delicious. A 100 yards away they have a Taqueria that just sells tacos. Definitely telling my mom!

Found a new lunch spot. (Happy Dance). I am all about comfort food especially Mexican comfort food. I tried the albondigas and they were bomb. The caldo was flavorful. It had potatoes, squash, and carrots. The meat balls were not too small. It was very filling. Couldn't even finish it. The rest of my day was great after that meal. I definitely want to try the Pozole and carne en su jugo.
