    Came for TSITP watch party, and it was soo fun! They also had happy hour the whole time so that's nice. We ordered pretty much everything on the menu and it was good. Service took a while but they were packed! Asada tacos so were so good, can't wait to go back.

    [I regret not taking more pics - the place was so great I just simply forgot] Came here by complete chance, but I'm so glad we did! :) The tapas options are phenomenal! From the tacos and empanadas to the bacon wrapped dates and jungle fries, every choice was a great one! There was also a good assortment on beers on tap as well. The service was as on point as the food, our glasses were never empty, and they were on top of things the entire time. The ambiance was that of a Latin themed tapas bar. Music, plenty of people talking and enjoying the evening, and generally just a good vibe. :) I'd return there for sure! The food and service both were above expectation!

    HIGHKEY RECOMMEND CELEBRATING WITH ZAMA I decided to celebrate my birthday here the week before Thanksgiving and was so glad I did! I booked my reservation on OpenTable two weeks before and updated my reservation three days before the date. (this is a must!) We came in 20 minutes early, and our table was already ready. Complete with balloons and all, they were ready to celebrate with me! From the food to the service, everything was top-notch! I definitely recommend the espresso martini tower, the jungle fries, and the carne asada burrito- don't forget to make it wet! The biggest shoutout to Andy and Matt for making our dinner celebration flawless! The boys were sad to see that the game day menu wasn't an option for the evening so we will definitely be back to try that too!

    PSA// This review is based on the single drink I had here lol. But worthy of a s/o, the Cucumber Serrano Margarita here was one of thee best spicy margaritas that I've had-- and that's my go-to drink everywhere. It was the right amount of kick that blended very well with the tequila. They also know how to do a tajin rim the right way! Right consistency of chamoy and on-brand tajin.

    Lounge, a place to sit back and relax with the music to make your toes tap. Bar in the front and patio in the back with drinks flowing and delicious knick knacks. A perfect place to meet up with homies and besties. The atmosphere was old school when we came in so that was a plus for us. Our server was helpful and gave us great recommendations on food and drinks we should try. The bacon wrapped dates and the truffle rolls came out first and they were just perfect to start off with. Their margarita flight was also a hit with flavor and potency! LoL. Up next was the Birria tacos and ceviche and they capped off a delicious foursome of flavor as far as our tid bits go. The experience was a hit and honestly I think it's a perfect place to chill on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. Parking is in the back for easy access. And that's my take, Peace

    1,000% YES I would recommend Zama Lounge in downtown Fullerton, especially if your server is Cierra!! She was super nice and very friendly from start to finish! Our Gold Elite Crew of 4 decided to meet here to welcome our East Coaster, Terri E. to the West Siiiiiide! Leonard A. is the head honcho who pulled it together, and we all had a great time. I was the first of the bunch to arrive, followed by Terri, Leonard, and Lynn. We pretty much got to pick where we wanted to sit, as the restaurant had just opened. The vibe is cool and casual, and they have a bar for all the pretty drinks you could ever want. We ordered some appetizers and drinks, and there wasn't anything we didn't like. What we got: Food: Chips and Salsa Shrimp Ceviche Truffle Roll Birria Taco Platter Bacon Wrapped Dates Drinks: Margarita Flights, Not Feelings! CUTE NAME!! Cancun Waters Breakfast Shot Cucumber Serrano Oasis Margarita Zama Fresca Mocktail I loved my Cancun Waters. It was just how I like my alchi: fruity, not too sweet, just the right amount of the good stuff, and BLUE! lol I ordered the Chips and Salsa when I meant to say guacamole, but Cierra was so kind and brought out some guac for me! We shared everything, and I think we all agreed that the Bacon Wrapped Dates are the perfect combination of sweet and savory! The Truffle Roll was bomb, and so was the Shrimp Ceviche. I didn't taste the Birria Tacos, but the group said it was yummayyyy and I believe them! Just looking at it made me want to inhale one, but I double stuffed myself that day, oopsie! The prices are average, the service is amazing, and there's a parking lot in the back of the building. I think you have to pay during the week, but I'm not sure since I didn't park there. There's also street parking. I highly recommend Zama for a date night or group date with your crew. Hope you have as much fun as we did!

    Nighttime bar vibe with dimmed lights around evening. + Zama Chicken Wrap ($16 + sub truffle fries $2): lotsss of thin, freshly fried truffle fries topped with chili flakes. Delicious chicken wrap, perfect ratio of juicy chicken, lettuce, tomato and melted cheese. (7.2/10)

    Espresso martini

    Their espresso martinis are delicious and their white tea shots are fire!!!! Great customer service. Picture makes the drink no justice

    Came in today last minute. Missed the drag show but had such a good time! Our service was so timely, considering we were doing bottomless mimosas. The food was delicious and our server was even better! He was so fun and made sure we had everything we needed. Thanks so much!!

    Margarita Flight

    Came here on a Sunday afternoon for drinks. Ambiance: 1/5 If you want a chill place to drink, chat, and watch some sports games, this is NOT the place to do so. The music was so loud that you're barely able to hear the people sitting next to you. This place also has an identity crisis, it a weird mix between a sports bar, cantina, a club, and a want to be high end brunch. I did not care for the vibes here. Service: 3/5 There was no wait to get a table. Once we got a table, it took some time before our waitress came and greeted us. It took even longer to get our drinks out and to get our checks at the end. Drinks: 3/5 We got a margarita flight which was pretty good. They flavors were unique and refreshing. It was very light in alcohol however. My favorite was the passion fruit one. My friend also order a Cabernet that he did it care for. He said it tasted too tart. I am not a wine connoisseur so I cannot speak on that, but they brought it out in a little vile and poured it into the wine glass. It felt u necessary.

    Celebrated my husband's birthday at Zama before heading out for more drinks & dancing. HIGHLY recommend. 10/10 The food was amazing in quality and flavor. Get the birria empenadas, you will not be disappointed. Or even just a simple carne asada taco, the salsa is bomb. Cant go wrong with either. Drinks and service were quick, friendly and sweet. Location is really cool with lots of nice decor and enough t.v.s for everyone LOL thank you, gabi

    Came here to watch love island at 8pm with a friend after work, super chill vibes. The staff was attentive, people were having a good time, and the drinks were GIVING! I tried the Jamaica Margarita and it was delicious. Would love to come back for other events like this.

    Woah. This is a great spot for brunch and drinks. My group and I went on Sunday to catch some NFL games and it was truly the best vibe in there. We went all out. Literally. We got the a tiered margarita tower and espresso martini and mimosa flights. All came out and were amazing presentation-wise. And for the foodies, we looooved the Birria Burger, chicken wings (garlic parm are bomb here), mazapan pancakes, Birria eggs benedict, and asada chilaquiles! If you get anything, try their Birria. Best around!

    Are kids allowed?

    I think kids during the day is fine, but it is definitely a bar/night life vibe as the evening approaches.

    Do I need reservations?

    You don't need them but you can make reservations on OPEN TABLE ENJOY 🥂

Then I got a white claw, this part is my mistake I guess but I didn't know , but I went to step outside for a moment to get some fresh air and security came outside and aggressively SNATCHED my white claw and threw it away, I was stunned. He ended up feeling bad because I cried because I'm sensitive lol and gave me a new white claw but that whole thing was just uncalled for and crazy - a simple "hey you can't have that outside either throw it away or come back in" would have done fine. THEN, and yall; I was a little lit but not drunk drunk, I was talking to the bar tender we were chopping it up and having a good talk then this girl who I said I hi to thought I was hitting on her and I told her I was married to a man and then I asked her "did you think I was hitting on you" she dismissed me but then apparently she told the bar tender that I did something because I was ASKED TO LEAVE - I have never in my life written a review for anywhere and I also have never EVER been escorted out of a bar at all let alone for no valid reason. I wish it went better because love dancing and it's a place to dance near my house but i definitely will never be back and would NOT reccomend this bar to anyone ever.

Because it's so cramped, every conversation echoes throughout the room, which made it hard to relax and enjoy the experience. The drinks were expensive and very small, and honestly didn't feel worth the price. The food was the same way. We ordered the scallops and the cheeseburger -- $36 for three scallops with rice and $26 for a mediocre burger and fries felt really overpriced for the quality and portion sizes. Unfortunately, the whole experience felt more like a rip-off than a special night out. I don't think I'd return, and I probably wouldn't recommend it to friends.

    We attended a special Chartreuse tasting event at Strong Water which was being held in honor of…read moreChartreuse week and Chartreuse Day 1605 (May 16), the annual celebration of Chartreuse's origins and history. The tasting featured a great lineup of green and yellow Chartreuse paired with small bites. It concluded with a complementary Chartreuse-based cocktail from one of five recipes. Brand ambassador Taylor guided the event and began by telling us about the unique history of Chartreuse. The tasting started out with a small spoonful of Vegetal Elixir Chartreuse to warm up the palate. This is the base spirit of both green and yellow Chartreuse and clocks in at 138 proof. It was surprisingly not harsh, but immediately kicked my salivary glands into overdrive. I didn't even know that vintages of Chartreuse was a thing, but Taylor walked us through tasting three different vintages of both yellow and green Chartreuse, and it was surprising how different they were. The lineup concluded with more rare varietals of the green elixir 1605 and yellow cuvee. Great job, thanks Taylor! Chef Kling presented each small bite which included a crispy Icelandic cod, a roasted beet crostino, and a lamb slider. All of them had a five star list of ingredients and were delicious. Strong Water is known for their excellent cocktails, but their food is also great. For my cocktail at the end of the event, I had the Bar Flower (Green Chartreuse, Crème de Cacao, Pineapple, Lime). This was so good, with the herbal and chocolate flavors perfectly balanced. It was served with a flaming lime half. This was such a great event! Chartreuse retails for around $100 a bottle, and the higher-end varieties cost even more. At just $45 per person, this event was an amazing bargain. Strong Water frequently hosts great events, so keep an eye on their social media for upcoming dates. I really love Chartreuse, so I went back a few days later on the last day of Chartreuse week to try a few of the other limited time cocktails. I started out with their twist on a Grasshopper (Chartreuse, Crème de Menthe, Chili Liqueur, Crème de Cacao, Cream, Cane, $22). This was a great classic Grasshopper, but the Chartreuse added a herbal complexity, and there is a dash of heat on the finish from the chili liqueur. Next I had the Flare Gun (Yellow Chartreuse, Overproof Rum, Italian Bitter, Lime, Cane, $20). The yellow Chartreuse definitely comes through, but it's softer and has a light sweetness, unlike the green variety. Even though it contains overproof rum, it is perfectly balanced and not boozy at all. I usually don't like bitter drinks, but the bitterness was at a perfect light level. I finished off with the Tales from the Black Lagoon which is my favorite drink here, and it's also a favorite of many of the bartenders. All three cocktails were a home run. Chartreuse is an expensive spirit, so those drinks cost a little more than average. Shout out to Karen, Joey, Edgar, Jordan, and Ying for excellent hospitality, as always. Strong Water is our favorite place. We can't wait to go back!
