Mia Jones Zapata is one of those places that’s easy to keep coming back to. The carne asada and skirt steak tacos were flavorful—super, tender, and cooked just right. You can tell the meat is seasoned well and not overdone, and the tacos are simple but really satisfying. Service was fast and efficient for a Saturday early afternoon. Family of 4 for lunch. Food came out quickly without feeling rushed, and everything was fresh and hot. It’s a great spot whether you’re stopping in for a quick bite or just want something reliable and tasty. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area and craving good Mexican food.

Anna Muradyants Our favorite poke spot! Always fresh and I love how clean it is. Very friendly service too

S. L. We loved everything about this place. Coming from Thailand, it’s hard to find good and authentic Thai food here in the U.S., but this spot truly impressed us. We visited every day while we were in town and enjoyed many delicious Thai dishes such as Pad Kra Pao, Pad Kee Mao, papaya salad, crispy pork with kale, green curry, fried rice, and more. The mango with sticky rice was a perfect way to end the meal—it reminded us of home. If youre looking for authentic Thai food (cooked by Thai chefs) with great taste and reasonable prices, look no further! We highly recommend this place and can’t wait to come back the next time were in town.

Manuela Mazzola Cannot say enough about them. Have been coming here for three years now, ordered several times group orders for our law firm as well. The hospitality and service when dining in is always so good, the service with take out is always amazing and on time. Food is always consistently excellent. Just had lunch today dine in with a coworker and ambience what perfect and relaxing as they had some jazz music on. Definitely recommend this place!!

リーBryan Bringing the southern politeness and service to the wild west is so nice! This is proper fried chicken, nothing fancy pants like Chick-fil-As cooking method. (｡•̀ᴗ-)و ̑̑✧

Rodriguez Valeria (Vale) It is the best Sonora Burrito I’ve had in the whole PNW! The handmade tortillas, the refried beans, and don’t get me started on the salsa, it tastes like home ❤️✨

Anna Y Went to Feast Buffet on a weekend evening and it was very busy. There was a good variety of food, including seafood like lobster and crab legs, along with sushi, dim sum, hot dishes, and lots of desserts. Plenty of options to choose from.

Chelsea Brenegan Service was spot on and our order was ready exactly at the pick-up time. The food itself was AMAZING! We got a wide assortment of items and each one was fantastic. The premium dosirak was great - we got one with the bossam and one with the spicy pork ribs and both were delicious. The dosirak came with a great assortment of banchan too, all of which were very tasty. We also got the kimbap roll (which was outstanding), along with the ddeokbokki, cheese balls, and rice cakes. Overall, solid food and great service - will definitely be coming back!

Jennifer McGinness We had the pleasure of finding this gem as we came into town from NC & were so pleased! The atmosphere was immediately welcoming & we started off our visit with some yummy bloody Mary’s. We ordered wings...cup o clam chowder & the appetizer sampler platter for lunch & the yummiest nacho chips. The whole time we marveled at Kim & how she handled everyone in the place & making sure everyone was happy & taken care of...the most excellent customer service! The food was wonderful & sadly I didn’t get the cooks name but he delivered the food out so quickly. We highly recommend this place & can’t wait to visit again! Thank you guys so much & keep up the great work♥️

KC L Food is tasty here. They’re known for their Bun Bo Hue. It’s really tasty. Wish they put pig’s blood jelly in there though. Bun Rieu was also very tasty. We used to not come here because the wait time was usually quite long. This hasn’t been the case in the last free visits so glad to be able to come even for a quick lunch.

Gabriella DL I think it’s a new place … it’s small, clean and service is good I was pleasantly surprised with how good the food was we got a plate of enchiladas and asada fries wow amazing.

Elijah Kleimenov Very cozy and romantic atmosphere. The bigger was well done and the seafood plate was spot on. The brownie ice cream was not good. I was trying to find something like thunder under from outback

Erik Oglesby So I stopped in for a late lunch/early dinner. Man, was I happy that I did. This was a wonderful idea. The cuisine was awesome. Light and cool for a 90-degree day. I had the Crying Tiger, the slaw salad was a wonder of delightful tastes. The steak was well flavored and so tender that it almost melted in your mouth. The staff was very helpful and well trained. They knew their menu and were able to even interest us in dessert, which I rarely do. Id like to invite you to try this establishment, I think youll find it to be a lovely date night treat.

Jim McRoberts Well done

Kate Matos I wish I could give more stars. The staff were warm and welcoming. The space and music were classy. We had the Pork Tostones, Papas Rellenas, and Jalapeño Pork Belly Toasts to start, and recommend all. The Cochinita Pibil and Huatulco Salmon were delicious. Definitely going back.
