    Cannot get enough of Zacatecas! The food is absolutely delicious, the staff are so welcoming and kind, and the drinks are great!

    Chunky salsa

    Very unassuming restaurant with a tight parking lot. Very welcoming staff , seated me right away. Full bar with cans of sodas, rather than fountain drinks. Booths or tables to choose from. TV's hung on the walls. Chips and salsa delivered right away. Salsa was chunky style. Really good flavor. Not hot, mild. House margarita was very tasty. I got a combination plate with a crunchy shredded beef taco, chile relleno, beans and rice . A lot of beans and rice, I couldn't eat it all. The taco shell was definitely home made. The shredded beef was spiced and cooked well. The Chile relleno was covered in a red enchilada sauce and stuffed with cheese. I love rellenos and this one was good. My water was kept filled and the staff was very friendly and polite. I would not hesitate to eat here again next time I'm in town.

    Delicious tart lime margarita, I'll have 2 please.

    It's Thank You Thursday...and it would not be complete without sharing a heartfelt Thank You to the restaurant that fills our bellies time and time again. Zacatecas YOU are a south bay staple and it's refreshing to have you in the neighborhood. Your friendly greetings, super tasty food, and consistency is why my family visits often both dining inside and takeout. Sometimes we need a round or two of your tart margaritas so dining at the restaurant is a must - let's face it, you rock the experience, hands down. Thank you Zacatecas. Thanks for making us happy time and time again. Keep rockin' it!

    Tom's Burrito  Strawberry  Margarita

    First time here and I am very satisfied! I ordered the strawberry margarita and the Tom's asada burrito with red sauce. I don't usually do much spicy, and it was perfect for me, full of flavor and absolutely delicious. The staff was very attentive and friendly, which made the experience even better. The restaurant was clean, including the bathrooms, which I really appreciate. I will definitely be returning next time I am in the area. Highly recommend this place if your looking for authentic Mexican food.

    It had been so long since I've been here and it's still fantastic! Stopped in late Monday and they were a little busy but we still got a roomy booth. Easy parking, and service was quick and friendly. Love the food, had a few different options and everything was great. Prices are fair and I'll definitely be back for more.

    Food is amazing! The owner is always here to greet you making you feel very welcomed and employees are the best! Great happy environment and did I forget to mention the food here is delicious

    Fu**ing fire and very hospitable . First time here and I would be back. We got the pozole and toms burrito . Who ever running the hiring and staff has an amazing selection because all the servers were on it and helpful and chill. Pull up

    Shredded Beef Burrito. Bean & cheese burrito. Rice.
    David M.

    I was in town visiting a friend and I told him I wanted Mexican food & he brought me here. This place is worth any wait there could ever be. When you first walk in your welcomed almost to what feels like a family dinner, they seat and give you one of the menus I have pictured. The menu offers you a strong selection of amazing traditional Hispanic dishes. My bean & cheese burrito with a side of rice was literally perfect. My friend got a shredded beef burrito & it was amazing as well. I will definitely be back to try something new & I genuinely can't wait

    Stumbled into this place waiting for our flight at LAX, I'm sure glad I did! Amazing service and amazing food. The enchiladas and the chile relleno were delicious!! We also ordered the fish and governor tacos. Make sure you ask for the spicy green sauce! I will definitely be back before any of my LAX flights

    Quesabirria Tacos
    Cynthia L.

    If you're looking for authentic mexican food with a family feel go to Zacatecas restaurant on 137th! Food is absolutely delicious, from the quesabirria tacos to the caldos, everything is soo good. I promise you this is the place to be. You'll always be greeted and treated like a family.

    DeVo enchilada, and Governor Taco

    We've been coming here for more than 20 years and this review is way overdue. They have literally watched everybody's kids grow up and it's a best family rent Mexican restaurant in the South Bay. Try the Devo enchilada it was named after my dad and basically it's a shredded beef enchilada with ranchero sauce instead The Bomb-Dot-Com

    Review on chicken tacos?

    The chicken tacos I had were juicy and well marinated .

    As of Sept 18, what safety precautions do they take, such as servers wearing face shields (mandaed by LA County Health Dept), disposable plates and cups and silverware and menus and condiment packages?

    I only order things to go but while waiting for my food I noticed that they take great precautions to safeguard the customers that eat at the restaurant while dining outside.… Read more

    During Covid-19, how many tables do they have outside and how many people can each table seat?

    I ate there during covid and there were about four tables that seat four.

    As of August 8, do they have outdoor dining or when do they plan to have it?

    They have about 4 canopies set and can 8 to 12 folks from what I saw.

    Do they cater?

    Yes, they do cater. We have used there catering service in the past for our Teacher Appreciation luncheons.

    Do they have any decent vegan choices?

    Unfortunately they do not have vegan options. I guess you could order their vegetarian burrito with no cheese and it should be safe but that's probably it.

As for food we got the Combo 2 and our choices were shrimp, clams and snow crab. We went with the Torpedo sauce for our boil cause it was a mixture of all their other sauces (garlic butter, classic cajun and lemon pepper) and we got it at a medium spice level. And oh boy oh boy did it set our mouths on fire but in the best way possible!! The sauce was everything we wanted it to be, spicy, savory, garlicky, tangy and just pure indulgence. To calm the heat though we also got cajun fries, rice, Thai tea and Jasmine milk tea. Sharing a meal with a friend is always nice but sharing a meal with a friend here is great. I believe food is the ultimate uniter and I'm happy we chose to go here!! My one and only con is just the location because it was a bit sketchy especially at night but the food and service was so good I think it's still worth it to go.

The menu lists market price for their seafood, but nowhere to physically see the prices so you must ask the waiter. I ordered a pound of head on shrimp in spicy torpedo sauce (their house combination sauce) and some mild cajun fries for sharing. The shrimp was well cooked and a nice aroma of garlic lingered from the chunks of garlic visible in the sauce. The sauce had decently chunky bits which adhered to the shrimp well enough and was delicious with a nice kick of heat. The shrimp were less than fresh but perfectly palatable. The Cajun fries were lightly seasoned, with a crisp (but not too crunchy) coating, similar to the exterior of an onion ring. They were great for snacking and whetted my appetite well. All in the food was good, but I just wish the shrimp was fresher to lend some subtle sweetness and fresh feeling to the dish.

Definitely suited our sensibilities to be close to the heart of this treasure, plus it can get cold out there! When our friendly and helpful server learned that we'd never been to FwD before, we were both treated a tasty amuse, a Peruvian scallop, one of their specialties. Served chilled, absolute heaven. Simple, fresh, delicious, and very pretty atop its shell. We ordered an appetizer, a different scallop dish, Pan Seared Diver Scallops. (Parsnip-potato puree, brown butter ponzu, capers). So good. Succulent, perfectly cooked and devilishly satisfying with its rich, savory flavor. We enjoyed the one dish that have been on their menu since the beginning, Koshihikari Rice. (short-grain Japanese rice, overnight chicken dashi, shrimp, uni, blue crab, cage-free egg yolk.) Wow. So much happening here, and yet it's a complete package. All the ingredients meld together sumptuously. It akin to Paella, or perhaps to a stuffed Risotto, although the Koshihikari Rice was very much its own dish. The server swerved and mixed the egg yolk on our plate, and we loved it. Our strategy to try a number of dishes and yet still have room for dessert worked. Many great choices, and I doubt we'd be disappointed with anything. However, we had heard from the table next to use that the key-lime pie was must. Happily, they were right. This Key Lime Pie is just sweet and just tart enough. Though I am not Key Lime Pie expert, this one struck me as imaginative with its meringue colony crowding the pie's surface for additional dessert debauchery. There nothing overwhelmingly citrusy about it, and it was light enough to help you feel satisfied and just right. The coffee was good, too. This is a low-key yet lovely dining experience in Manhattan Beach.

Look I would've given this place 3 stars, but the customer service and wait time was ridiculous. Hear me out, this is my experience from last Saturday. So first it can be challenging to find this place, since the pier has so many level to it. Look for the elevators. When you get there, for the first time, you see a main line, well for what? Then you see other lines, well for what? Then you see an oyster line, oh. In order to determine what each line is for, you have to do independent research. From whom? Well the employee, who do not show case any form of customer service. There were so many people lost and confused. To break it down, each "Order Here" has their own area of what can be ordered by the pound and/or cooked. So not all lines are equal. There is a crab line, seafood boil/pre-seasoned seafood, oyster, clams, I think I saw fish and fried platters, which was the longest. So after much deliberation, an employee managed to wrangle the customers to form a line. Although his mannerism seems like I'm just done with this place. One might consider ropes to further avoid these mundane confusions... I got Ana's seafood boil mix, $99. It came with a lobster, dungeoness crab, peeled shrimp, clams, sausage and potatoes. The employee told me about 10 mins. I'm like okaaaay, only 10? I walked to their souvenir shop, nothing crazy or must haves. Just cheap Chinese things with their name printed on. I return in 10 minutes. The guy doing prepping/expediting the pick order was in a frantic state. Older white male, white mustache. He was running around, mixing orders up, couldn't even tell what customers had what. The employee that wrangling folks came to help him collect himself. So 10 minutes wait turns to 15, 20, then 30 minutes. I had 2 other employees check up on my order, they said it's not ready. Okay. Finally about 35 minutes it's ready. He didn't even call out my order, I had to wave my ticket. The first rule of speed of service, never over sell the time. If it's gonnabe 30 mins plus, say 40 mins, gimme a bs reason, short handed, etc, I don't care!But why would you tell me it'll be 10 mins?! So finally got the food. Flavor was pretty good. Lobster, was okay. I wished the shrimp had the head on. Clams were big. Sausage was good. Potato seemed like the diced ones from a can, they were so small. The crab, however, is the driest. Yep, for a place that exclaims "Quality Seafood," it was kind've of a let down. They taste like the bottom batch of the crab at Las Vegas buffet. You know the batch that sits on the bottom, they don't ever rotate because the employees don't care. So it's just marinating in its own dry filth. The crab was so dry I could put that in an Advil bottle instead of cotton. So now if you ask me, would I come back? Maybe, just maybe. Anytime soon? Nah, not right now. Also with the mention of a tourist trap, it's no different than Seattle's Pike Place and surroundings.
