" Zocalito exceeded my expectations. The cocktails were inventive and paired perfectly with our meal. I especially enjoyed the calamari; it was perfectly crispy with a plane of spices that elevated it. The live music added to the perfect date-night vibe! We were treated with utmost care by the staff. I left feeling satisfied and fulfilled, and more than ready to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Zocalito for the first time last month, and I was absolutely enchanted by the vibrant ambiance. The hawker was kind and very knowledgeable about the menu! We shared a bunch of dishes, and every single one was delicious. I particularly enjoyed the mole with the ribs as it was rich and savory. I'll be counting down the days until I can come back again. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great food, a fun atmosphere, and quick service. The quesadilla I ordered was stuffed generously with cheese, and the flavor was fresh and vibrant. The prices are a bit high but you truly get what you pay for here. I’ll be back to try more items on their menu soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Zocalito is a must-visit for anyone in Denver. The food was incredible—each dish was full of personality! I enjoyed my meal so much that I wanted to finish with dessert! The staff was very hospitable. Despite the restaurant being busy, they made sure we felt like a priority. I’ll definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Zocalito has quickly become one of my favorite spots since moving to Denver. The authenticity of the food truly sets it apart from other Latin restaurants. I was particularly fond of their seafood soup; it was wholesome and filled with fresh ingredients. The only reason I didn't give it a full five stars is that I found the prices a bit above what I'd expected. Overall, I highly recommend it for anyone keen on experiencing genuine Oaxacan cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of dining at Zocalito last week and can confidently say it’s worth every penny. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff genuinely cared about customer satisfaction. The main attraction was the pasilla chile relleno, which was by far the best I've had outside of Mexico. It was elegant yet comforting. I will definitely be back with friends to share more of the menu flavors soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Never have I experienced such a combination of atmospheres! An ambiance filled with life and flavors that took me to another country. If only they could increase the portion sizes slightly, it would have been perfect. Nevertheless, everything from our margaritas to the chiles en nogada was divine. It’s definitely a return for me! " (*Curated Review*)
