" I stumbled upon La Zapoteca while driving through Moorpark, and let me just say, it's a hidden gem! The moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth reminiscent of family gatherings. I ordered the mole chicken and it was simply divine—a true taste of Oaxaca right here! The portions are generous, and with prices this good, I felt like I hit the jackpot. The staff made sure I had everything I needed and even recommended a dessert that was out of this world. It’s safe to say that I’ll be coming back regularly! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't express how much I enjoyed my meal at La Zapoteca! It's a cozy little spot with a welcoming atmosphere. I ordered chilaquiles and they were phenomenal! Just the right amount of crunch, topped with fresh ingredients. I also got to try their fresh guacamole, which was made right in front of me. It didn’t break the bank either! If you find yourself craving authentic Mexican food, make your way here—the flavors are incredible and the ambiance is just right for a casual dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" La Zapoteca is wonderful! The owner, who I believe is also the chef, is so friendly and makes you feel at home. I ordered the flautas and was blown away by how crispy they were and the taste was just incredible. I enjoyed the ambiance as well; it feels like a small family gathering place and that adds a special touch to the overall dining experience. Not to mention, the prices are fair for the quality. I can’t wait to go back and try more items from the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has become my weekly tradition! I love visiting La Zapoteca for their burritos, which are massive and filled with flavorful goodies. The staff always greets me with a smile and remembers my order, which makes me feel valued as a customer. The ambiance is very home-like, and the prices are a steal for such quality food. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for delicious authentic Mexican cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" La Zapoteca is fantastic! I visited here based on the urging of a friend and it did not disappoint. Authentic Mexican cuisine that warms the soul. Everything was flavorful, especially the birria tacos. The service is top-notch; every staff member I encountered was friendly and attentive. If there’s a quirk, it’s that it’s quite small and could get busy. However, if you can snag a table, you’ll have a great time! " (*Curated Review*)

" My first visit to La Zapoteca was a pleasant surprise! The flavors are authentic and delicious. However, I was disappointed by the limited dessert options. That said, the service was superb, and the restaurant had a comfortable feel, making it ideal for a family outing. I appreciate how they prioritize wholesome, homemade meals in this day and age. I will certainly return for another taste soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried La Zapoteca and had high hopes based on the reviews. While some dishes were good, the taco I had felt a bit bland. The horchata was also not what I expected, missing that kick of cinnamon. On a positive note, the service was attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere cozy. I enjoyed my time but might explore other menu options to see if there's something more authentic next time. " (*Curated Review*)
