    I came here for lunch expecting to see the standard faux Mexican food that you often find at some of the chains. There is some of the standard fare but they also have some of the classic traditional Mexican food. The chips come out warm and the salsa was fresh and had some fresh cilantro mixed in and had a nice kick. Since it was lunch, I opted for the Carnitas Tacos. They come out wrapped in foil to keep them warm. The onions, cilantro, and diced tomatoes come in a dish on the side. It also has a salsa on the side which is perfect for the tacos. To get the traditional Mexican tacos make sure you ask for it that way. The rice and beans were tasty as well. Definitely a pretty good Mexican restaurant in the area.

    Carnitas tacos Mexican style were very good and taste fresh n delicious. The salsa is pretty good better than most, definitely NOT tomato paste. Overall, if I'm back in Florence or Darlington I will definitely come back here to eat.

    All that's left after a delicious meal.

    Found this place on Yelp and decided to give them a shot based on previous reviews. Friendly, quick service, clean and comfortable. I had the guac, which was fresh, and steak fajitas. You could tell everything was freshly made and the salsa was awesome. Also had a margarita, and they weren't cheap with the tequila. Overall, a great experience and very tasty food. Highly recommend.

    Great Food, friendly staff, nice atmosphere. Only downside is the hours. I wish it were open earlier and later 7 days a week.

It is very extensive with lots of specialty options. You can be sure to find something for everyone here. The food is delicious- I lean towards the enchiladas and burritos- but they have lots of other options, tacos, quesadillas, fajitas, steak, chicken , seafood and vegetarian. The decor is typical Mexican Cantina style with tables and booths. The service is always great! They have a full bar - so grab a margarita!! The beers are huge and ice cold ! Chips and salsa is complimentary on arrival and serves with warm chips very tasty salsas - one hot and one mild ! I have made this place my must stop place when traveling to the beach or south. They also have another location in Myrtle Beach if that is your destination! I had the new menu item Chef Speciality Burrito Supreme - one chicken and bean burrito and one beef and bean burrito - topped with a flavorful creamy tomato sauce , melted cheese - lettuce , tomato and more shredded cheese and a dollop of sour cream on top ! Scrumptious!! Portion sizes are generous! Ask about happy hour drink specials - 4 $ house margaritas!! Very good ! Don't pass this place by- it's worth a stop lunch or dinner! Great prices too!!

    My cousin and I recently moved here, and this was the very first restaurant we tried. Within the…read morepast two weeks, we've already been back around five or six times, which honestly says everything. First and foremost, the staff here is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Their menu is HUGE, with so many different options, and they were very patient helping us navigate through it and figure out what we were craving. They genuinely helped guide us toward different sections of the menu based on what sounded good to us. The portions are amazing for the price. Everything is very affordable, especially considering how much food you get. My cousin ordered fajitas, I ordered carne guisada, and we've continued trying different dishes every time we go because the menu is so extensive. One thing that really stood out to me was how attentive they are. One time, I ordered a dish with ground beef that I personally didn't finish because where I'm from, we prepare that style of meat differently. When they noticed, they kindly asked if I didn't like it. I explained honestly that it just wasn't what I was used to, and they were extremely understanding and apologetic, even though it simply came down to different regional cooking styles. I appreciated that they cared enough to ask. The next time I went, I ordered burritos covered in lettuce, sour cream, and sauce. They actually remembered that I hadn't loved the ground beef before and suggested I try a different meat instead. They gave me one chicken and one beef burrito with the meat they recommended, and I absolutely LOVED it. It was so good that I literally came back the next day and ordered the same burritos again, this time both with the beef they had suggested. Another small thing that meant a lot to me: I gifted them a Mexican peso bill and asked if they'd actually put it up somewhere in the restaurant. They said yes, and they really did! This has become one of those places that feels comforting and familiar very quickly. I've already recommended it at my job site and invited friends to eat here with me. Everyone who has gone has been thrilled with the experience ranging from the staff, the cleanliness, the flavor, the huge portions, and the affordable prices. You can tell the people here genuinely care about their customers, and that's what keeps bringing us back.

    It's been nine years since my first review, and Zapata's is still a solid four-star Mexican…read morerestaurant in Hartsville. Over the years, I've eaten inside many times and also called in takeout orders. Our orders have always been correct, even when we've added or left out ingredients, and we've never had to wait long for food or drinks. The portions are large for the prices, and you can't beat the prices. Of course, I am used to Charleston pricing which is generally more expensive than the Pee Dee. The shrimp taco salad is a great deal at around $10. It had the perfect balance of warm ingredients like shrimp, queso, and grilled vegetables, along with chilled ingredients like lettuce and tomatoes. I also love the crispy taco shell "bowl". Although it is a salad, it's certainly not healthy, but the vegetables give me a LITTLE less guilt. My husband generally orders "A little of everything", which is two plates of various items. He has never been disappointed in anything. Personally, the hot salsa is the perfect amount of spice for me and not super spicy. I usually don't eat the mild salsa, as it has zero heat. I'll keep visiting Zapata's when I visit my in-laws in Hartsville.
