My fiancée and I arrived at 8:30-ish on a Tuesday, a little worried because we were so close to the stated closing time of 9:00. We needn't have worried. Several large parties arrived after us and everyone got served and was welcomed with smiles all around. The staff is super friendly and helpful. I get the impression this is a family run business, and they act the part. Our food was delicious and authentic. I ordered two tacos al pastor, my fiancee got the steak and the ground beef, and all was delicious. We split side orders of rice and beans, and glad we did, because the portions were too much for one person. The dining room is not fancy, but clean, casual, and comfortable. I'll be returning to the area from time to time in the future, and El Zarape will be one of my go to dining options when I'm here. Best success to the owners, they have a good thing going. The other diners all seemed to agree!

Most of the arcade games didn't work either. I went back to the counter to pay and the Manager wanted full price for bowling. $70 for 10 mins even though bowling wasn't working and none of the games were working. The Manager was very rude and ruined a nice afternoon out for my son on his birthday. This place is sketchy, the soo knows that. I had hoped things were better but ya, don't go here. To the Manager: stick to serving up drugs on the weekend!

Food was fine, inexperience of the servers was pretty obvious, suppose no fault of theirs. We arrived late (10pm) from the hotel, and they felt it necessary to constantly remind us that they were closing at 11, maybe that meant they weren't interested on serving us? Restaurant didn't close till 1030, usually a bit too late for me to order but we were short on options. Menh...drink, play, hang...or whatever their slogan is.

They charge separate for every single item you put in a shell. Was not a good experience compared to what it originally used to be. This is now a fast food setup. No longer a Mexican Restaurant with waitresses. Before they shut down and revamped, the meals were excellent quality. We used to pay the same for an entire meal (with rice and beans and chips and salsa) that we ended up paying for the little quantity of food we got today. It's a shame really because we used to go every week and always recommended them. Not anymore.
