Every weekend I come for my breakfast burrito!! And it's the best Iv ever had. Make sure to get their chipotle sauce in the squirt bottle, it's life changing!!! Their hot sauces are also incredible! read more

A food trailer with an awning covering an unheat d space with three tables. The rockfish tacos are excellent. The nachos were a bit of a disappointment. Too little ground beef and it was under-seasoned for my palate. I was also surprised that there was no sour cream or guacamole. read more

A gem in downtown Petersburg! Their food is fresh and delicious; anything on their menu is sure to be fabulous. I have had the quesa-burria, green chile pork burrito, fried plantains and their churros. Flavorful and authentic! The service is good and they are very friendly. They have many drinks you can choose from in stock. I had a guava flavored Jarrito which I hadn't had before, so I'm happy they had it as an option. Their interior is small, but has a reasonable number of seats for the space they have. The prices may sit on the higher end ($15-20 for an entree), but I didn't think it was unreasonable. After all, it's Alaska and prices will be higher. Overall, I would highly recommend if you find yourself in Petersburg!! read more

No atmosphere and no friendliness, but the best fish tacos I've had. Specifically, they make the only fish tacos I've had that are good not just as vessels for fish, but also as tacos. The rockfish is fried perfectly, the tortillas are as fresh as you find in places that are a lot more Mexican than Petersburg, and they have fresh cabbage and good-quality salsas. That is to say--these aren't tourist-oriented fish tacos in a cruise ship town, but tacos made by Mexicans for American fishermen. read more

El Zarape - Mexican Near Me - Petersburg, Alaska

Food was great, it was first time here in Alaska, and the Mexican food reminded me of home!

Service is pick up at counter for the most part, was ok but not very friendly. Food was horrible. I am American, I can make a better quesadilla. The steak didn't taste like steak, it was mostly ground up and that is unusual for this kind of food. It just tasted bad, also watered down refried beans. read more

The rockfish tacos were some of the best fish tacos I've had on the west coast. The service was very quick and the staff super friendly. I will definitely be stopping here again! read more

Food was good and the service was friendly, but they were nowhere ready for the surprisingly busy rush that came at the same time we did. They forgot several orders and we had to ask them about it after 15 minutes, and they accidentally tried to give us one order twice. I'd go back, but hopefully during non-peak times. read more

We stopped at St. Petersburg on an inland passage cruise and had a wonderful experience eating here. Mom was cooking and the daughter was running the counter. Everything was fresh and cooked to order. It's the sort of place you love to find when travelling around. read more

The Best Food in town and Best Mexico food in Alaska Hands Down!!! The ticks are straight out of Mexico

Just like being back in northern Mexico. Great food, nice beer selection. Very helpful friendly staff. Good value for money.

The food and service were fantastic. This place has better food that any Mexican place in Colorado! Highly recommend it!

Good Mexican food and great burgers. The Tombstone burger is a treat you won't find the likes of elsewhere in Alaska or the Lower 48. Best burger in town. Expensive? Sure , it's Alaska. But worth the price. read more
