Delicious tacos and nachos at fair prices, good customer service. Ate here twice while we stayed in Culebra. One of the best restaurants on the island. Closed Mondays and Tuesdays. Drinks were strong too. read more

The best Mexican restaurant in Puerto Rico. Try Zacos specials to know why. The standard tacos are insuperable. read more

Delicious tacos. Wonderful service. I had the pork belly and seared tuna tacos, which were both succulent and moist. The pork belly was perfectly tender. The tuna was flavorful. My friend had the chicken and crane asada. The chicken was full of flavor and surprisingly tender. The crane aside she said was even better. The food was so good, we almost came back a second time! Also, this place is extremely affordable. Highly recommended. read more

Pretty standard Mexican fare. Our waitress was really nice and went to go check out for is what the different pies were. The decor is fun, especially at the bar. Service is pretty slow and no one actually speaks Spanish (that's Culebra for you in a sentence. I am a big-islander through and through). Now on to the food. We ordered maybe six carne asada tacos and one carnitas. The carne asada had cilantro (my faaaave) and raw onions plus nicely cut up meat. Easy to eat. The carnitas one is juicer and it has cheese which is always a plus in my book. The only thing was that there was a dab of hot sauce on one side which I bit into unknowingly. Supposedly there are some cool salsas here-I saw them on the way out but no one mentioned anything about salsas so we ate in ignorance. My sister had a quesadilla which looked pretty...basic. We had the mud pie for dessert which was mostly chocolate mousse on top of a chocolate cookie like crust. Not bad. This place is pretty good, especially for Culebra. My family dragged me out here for a hostile family vacation and it's been one of the highlights. Gets four stars because if you're bored enough to find yourself on Culebra, you should at least have some slow service tacos. read more

Ordered pork belly taco, tuna taco, carnitas tacos, and regular nachos. Wow those pork belly tacos, I actually closed my eyes when I ate them. That's how good they were. Other stuff was okay, but the 5 stars are completely due to the pork belly taco. read more

Zaco's Tacos Restaurant - Nachos with tacos. - Mexican Near Me - Culebra, Puerto Rico

You have bad food trips and great food trips. We were always in a hurry during our vacation in Puerto Rico, could never find the time to look for lunch/dinner spots. We landed from the ferry in Culebra craving for food. Frankly, anything would have tasted good. Zacos was just a 2 minute drive straight on the road from ferry. The food and the dining experience turned out to be one of the most memorable of our trip. We had some good cocktails to kick off. But the tacos were truly off this planet. The ingredients were as fresh as can be and they have some special sauces (hoot booty, yo mama) kept on the side. The rasta qeusadilla was a vegetarian delight.The service is good, waiters give directions to tourists, they have free island maps and the seating is the back is enchanting. The only downer were the mosquitoes. But truth be told I brave the long ferry ride, mosquitoes and whatever else more for Zacos than Flamenco beach ! read more

Hidden joint in Culebra. A nice American couple will welcome you warmly with succulent mexican food and cuba libres! Traditional tacos, burritos and quesadillas are on the menu; all very fresh with yummy sauces to add to this treat. They recently opened in April 2011 and the gem is open Sat-Wed 9-6. Can't wait to come back after a nice day at playa flamengo! read more

Got there at 7:40 - wanted a quick bite. Was told upon reaching the podium "We're closed," delivered with a thousand jolts of human disregard one would find at a busy DMV. Not "hello," not "good evening." Hours state open until 8pm. I reiterated that to this angel of taco defeat hoping she'd understand that whenever someone goes to a restaurant, they should be served as long as they arrive within the hours of operation. I mean, places like Crapplebees honor that and they're open late. She stated again, with the attitude and snarkiness that could only come from a seasoned 12 year old that was told to surrender her phone for bad behavior, that they were closed and then pretended to be busy filling out something at the hostess stand while looking up to see if we had gone. I looked around and saw staff bringing people food and others at tables with just drinks at the moment. She walked away and someone else came by - told us the same thing. It was a Friday night - maybe they wanted to get out of there and hang out with their friends, but to be treated like an annoyance was bullshit. Hipster taco places like that irritate the GenXer in me with a fiery rage. You'd find better service elsewhere - like at Dinghy Dock where we went the night before, even though they were closing 15 mins before we got there, graciously served us and were decent humans about it. read more

We tried 6 types of tacos (they did not serve it with salsa). They were so-so. My expectations with the hype in yelp were not met. Service was also so-so. What made it decent was their yummy desert. We ordered the almond cheesecake. read more

Friendly staff. A few vegan options. Tofu burrito was pretty good! You get a lot of food for your money. Staff was very accommodating to vegan food. read more

Loved the little taco joint! We ate here twice during our stay on the island. The menu changes daily and is written on a chalk board. The salsas are jam packed with flavor. We ordered nachos, the dirty Sanchez (zaco's version of a double decker), a chicken burrito and a burrito bowl all of which were delicious! The hibiscus tea was amazing as well! Disappointed they weren't open Saturday and Sunday :( read more

Rolled in after a long day at the beaches and were met with a smile and a joke by bartender Steve. Beer was cold, food served fast and fresh as ever. Seared tuna and Blackbean tacos were our favorites. The porch looks inviting. We intend to visit a few times more in our remaining 48 hours on the island. read more

Zaco's Tacos Restaurant - Great afternoon snack with bartender Steve. - Mexican Near Me - Culebra, Puerto Rico

Awesome find in Culebra. We only had about 20 minutes before the ferry was leaving and the guys advised us what we could order (as they make everything fresh). Black bean and pulled pork tacos were the best we've had in a long time. Really cool atmosphere too. Wish we could have stayed longer. read more

Bomb tacos try the pork belly and the fish!! Being Mexican I'm picky about tacos but these were pretty bomb! I also had a piña colada it was really good!! Thanks zacos tacos and culebra read more

Came at dinner rush and was told a half our wait. Decided to have a drink at the bar. Good house margarita. When we were finally seated, my partner ordered the chicken burrito. I decided to be adventurous and order the pork belly taco (yummy) and the tongue taco (yummy although the texture was new to me and I'm still trying to decide if I like tongue). Good price for the tasty meal. Overall would recommend. Just be cautious of the crowds. read more

Tuna taco is a must try. Super fresh tuna and cooked just well, yummy, yummy. Too healthy? You need to try the pork belly as well. That's the best taco I've even had! The chicken Quesadilla is also recommended! The taco shop' lady is very very nice, there are mosquitoes because of the rainy today, she offered us the mosquitoes spray. Good experience! read more

Perfect spot for dinner in Culebra. Worth the wait for both the food and ambiance. I hope they survive the pandemic, as so many small businesses are suffering. I'll be back! read more

This is by far the best place on the island. The tacos are amazing and the service is awesome. Love the owners such great and friendly people. The desserts are awesome too. Had the guava cheesecake and it was amazing. While on our week long stay we have eaten here twice and thinking of going again tonight!!! read more

Awesome place...AMAZING tacos (carne asada and carnitas are the best) and even better are the MOJITOS!!! The atmosphere is laid back, definitely take a look outside, they have a great sitting area down by the tree. read more

In Culebra Island the options are limited, but Zaco's Tacos would set the bar up anywhere. Been here before, never been disappointed. Awesome atmosphere, great food, coooold beer. 'Nugh said! read more

Fresh ingredients. Creative and yummy food. Each taco is unique (they're not just adding different types of meat to the same ingredients). Interesting specials -- the beef tongue taco was UNBELIEVABLY tasty, but the tuna ceviche was unfortunately oversalted. The only other slight ding was that they would not give us a glass of tap water, thus forcing us to buy drinks (but on the plus side, the hibiscus iced tea is delish!). We enjoyed this place so much, we ate here both nights that we were on the island. read more

I wanted to update my review on this place to negative stars. The owner dared to send me a message calling me a "D##k" because i said that i did not like the agreement that all these restaurants have to drive the customers to each other in different days a week and offer poor customer service, bad food and high prices. THIS IS WORSE THAN A MAFIA. No fair market competition means poor quality on everything. I wish they understood that but oh well. I will be bringing my own food to Culebra. read more

It's better than other options in town. Place was hopping, grab a drink while you wait. They have beer on tap and strong cocktails. The pork tacos were great, other tacos were average. They have 3 different sauces which caters to all spice levels. read more

Oh man! SUCH A GREAT MEAL!!! My sister and I loved it so much we ate here twice in our 3 meals on Culebra.

Carnitas, bean, and fried fish tacos were all very delicious. Roosters are very entertaining. Cucumber/jalepeno margarita is amazing and not too spicy. Highly recommended. Atmosphere is amazing. A must stop place while in Culebra. read more

Margarita, chips & salsa and pork belly tacos..you can't go wrong with that... The hours of operation are funky (12pm to 8pm) but this is the perfect place to go after a day at the beach. Friendly service, great food and awesome island vibe read more

This place serves the best food on Culebra, hands down. Amazing tacos, street corn, margaritas, and to die for shrimp and crab nachos. There's a fun bar area to hangout and drink or you can play games on the downstairs patio. We wish we had went here more than once in our short stay and have missed the food since leaving. With great service, ambience, and food, it's a must!! read more

My husband and I have been coming to Culebra for a few years now and we were very excited to try Zaco's on our most recent trip. We were not disappointed! Fabulous, fresh tacos and great drinks. The hibiscus margarita is delightful and refreshing - a perfect treat after a long day at the beach. We loved the fish taco and the carne asada taco...we actually loved everything we tried. Sure, service can be a little slow, but what's the rush? This is Culebra and it's perfect. Reviews complaining about "small portions" are completely insane. Go away. read more

Excellent taco's, burritos, and drinks! Huge fan and wish this place was in Philadelphia. Loved that they had duck taco's one night, delish! The prices for the taco's seemed a tad high but completely worth it for the quality and service. Also, one of the cleanest bathrooms on the island. Indoor seating is limited but they have a fabulous patio that is shaded out back. Highly recommended! read more

They are nice and they try hard, but they are not organized. They are not good with groups over 6. We waited 30 minutes for our cocktails. The "mango mojito" was just mango juice and rum. Not sure I would call that a mojito. On a positive note, their banana daiquiris are good and fresh. The food was pretty good. We got their last tacos around 7pm. The seating in the back was pleasant and nicely lighted. They had games for kids and a fun swing. I would have given 4 stars if the wait wasn't an hour for 11 of us to sit and we just ended up splitting the group. Have to be patient with them. read more

Easily my favorite part of my trip to PR. The atmosphere was killer with food to match! Huge burritos that didn't set you back. Service was warm and helpful. I would return back to PR again, solely because of Zaco's! And flamenco beach, of course. read more

By far our favorite lunch/dinner spot thus far. Enough so we are going back this trip. The atmosphere was great. It was and interesting place to just look around. The elevation changes in the decking looked challenging for the waitstaff to navigate, but it broke up the dining area Ina really cool way. The drinks were great. Creative twists on the classics. We ordered the Nacho Supreme, a carnitas quesadilla for my son (not interested in it that night but made a great breakfast!), a chicken burrito which was too big to finish, but super tasty and then a chicken taco, a pork belly taco and two fish tacos...then two more fish tacos! The fish tacos is were it is at. I have had a lot of fish tacos and this is one of the tops for sure. We also took a banana rum cake to go and it was awesome and I believe homemade. Oh, the hot sauce was awesome. They had a little bar of three sauces. All were tasty. There was a mild green, a chipotle (smokey) red and an orange one named "burns on both ends". That was by far our favorite. I didn't find it overly hot to be honest but it was spicy. If you typically eat hot food, you can handle it, but the flavor was great. Bugs were bad for the folks that say closest to the wooded area but that was almost everywhere and it looked like they had bug spray to use. The only "bad" part were the hours are really unclear. I think they kind of open when they want to open but I think that is par for the course when it comes to Island life. If you see it is open, drop our other dining plans and go here instead. For our next visit (there will be one more on this trip) we are going to go straight tacos. The rest of the stuff is really good, but we want to fill up on tacos instead. read more

THE BEST BRUNCH EVER, we will never have another breakfast like we did today. SERVICE was outstanding , we wish everday was sunday here read more
