" I can't believe how authentically Mexican the food at Doña Zita is! Finally! I had a taco and a torta, and they were both perfect – full of flavor and fresh. The service was friendly but could be faster, especially during peak hours. That said, I usually end up ordering extra to go for my family since everyone loves it. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" Before visiting Doña Zita, I had my doubts about how authentic it could be, especially since it’s in a touristy area. However, my experience proved otherwise. The horchata was delightful, and my tacos packed serious flavor. I wasn't a big fan of how hot it was inside but overall a great experience. I would recommend this place for anybody craving good Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Was really looking forward to trying Doña Zita due to the hype but left feeling average about it. The tacos were okay, a bit overpriced for what I expected. The online praise over authenticity had me hoping for a more robust flavor. Next time, I might try something different for a better experience. Service was decent, but the ambiance was lively. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you’re looking for great Mexican food at Coney Island, Doña Zita is the place to go! I love their ha-cha-cha – a combination of fresh ingredients and super tasty! The service is usually friendly, though it can get chaotic when it’s busy. Nevertheless, the atmosphere is lively! I was blown away by the portion sizes as well! For the price, you genuinely get your money's worth. I will be back soon for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family has visited Doña Zita every summer for the past five years, and we can never get enough of their amazing food. I particularly love their cemitas; they are definitely the highlight of our meals. The kids enjoy the tacos, and we always leave with full stomachs and smiles. The only downside is that it can get crowded, so patience is key. Still, this place never disappoints and I could eat here every day! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was skeptical at first, as so many places claim to offer 'authentic' Mexican food, but Doña Zita genuinely impressed me. The cemita with beef was hands down the best I’ve had! It had all the layers of flavor perfectly blended together. The only downside was the waiting time was longer than I anticipated, but that only proved how fresh the ingredients are and how popular the place is! " (*Curated Review*)

" I thought the prices sounded a little high for street food but the portions were so generous that it completely justified it. I tried the torta and the tacos and they were delightful! The authentic flavors really stood out. The only downside was that the music could be a bit much, could use some volume control. Otherwise a great experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)
