" Zacatecas has become a staple for me and my family. Each visit is a chance to revisit our cultural roots through the food! Their mole enchiladas are honestly some of the best I’ve had outside of Mexico. The flavors pop and are deeply aromatic, with just the right amount of spices. Not only that, but the portions are generous, and you definitely get your money's worth. The team is always so welcoming and they never rush you. It's the perfect place for a relaxing dinner where you can catch up with family over good food. We drive an hour just to enjoy this little gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stopped by Zacatecas Cafe one early morning for their breakfast offerings, and I have to say it was well worth the stop! I ordered the breakfast burrito, and while it was tasty, I wished for a bit more flavor in the filling. The staff was friendly but perhaps a bit overwhelmed during the rush. The salsa was fresh but could use more spice to really kick it up a notch! However, the atmosphere was lively and vibrant, with great music playing in the background. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I’d come back to try out more of their famous dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" The most incredible experience at Zacatecas Cafe! I hosted a reunion dinner there last week and it turned out perfectly. The food was fantastic; every plate was clean after the feast. I particularly loved the enchiladas; they were so flavorful and made with a traditional recipe. The atmosphere was just right for a relaxed evening with friends. The wait staff were attentive, and we were never lacking for anything. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to create wonderful memories! " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband and I brought our kids for dinner, and we really enjoyed our time at Zacatecas! The food was abundant and flavorful, perfect for our family meal. I particularly appreciated the homemade chips and salsa that arrived as soon as we were seated. A fantastic family-friendly option in Riverside! " (*Curated Review*)

" The vibe at Zacatecas Cafe is lively and enjoyable. I was pleased to see so many families dining together. The food quality was great, although I felt that some dishes were a bit on the greasy side. However, I really appreciated the generous portions. Even our kids had a great time enjoying their tacos! It's a lovely spot for a family meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently celebrated my birthday here, and I couldn't have picked a better spot! The staff went above and beyond to make it special, surprising me with a free dessert. The food was simply incredible; I ordered the chicken mole and it was heavenly. The atmosphere struck a great balance between lively and cozy. I left feeling delighted and satisfied. A highly recommended spot for celebrations! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food is reasonably priced, but it didn’t meet the expectations I had going in. The tacos were decent, but nothing special. The service was friendly, although we did notice some delays. I think I’ll try a different dish next visit, hoping for a better experience. " (*Curated Review*)
