Taqueria Zarape — Restaurant in Seaside

Went there for the first time and had a shrimp taco an asada taco and nachos. Everything was pretty tasty so we returned the next night to eat again. (Don’t judge us for eating out two nights in a row 😂) I literally watched them put the enchiladas that we ordered in the microwave to cook them. Like legit roll the tortillas with cheese, dip in sauce and put the plate in the microwave. I’ve never seen anything like that at a taqueria or any restaurant period. We had to ask them to reheat the plate because the cheese wasn’t melted. They proceeded to put it back in the microwave again. Needless to say, I did not finish the food. The fish tacos that my boyfriend ordered were decent. Super disappointed in a meal that cost over $30. I will not...

A personal favorite of ours! Back when we used to come visit the Peninsula, I always made sure we stopped here. Now that we live right up the street, we're here every week or two (a dream come true)! Consistent food every time, orders are cooked quicker than a fast food restaurat, with warm, friendly staff who recognize us even with masks on. Food is fantastic. I know taco salad is American, but I love theirs, served in a big crisp flour tortilla shell with beans, melted cheese, rice, lettuce, tomato, pico, sour cream, guac and choice of meat -- I go for chorizo or pollo asado. The homemade (gratis) salsa and chips bar is off the chain offering one mild, one smoky, one spicy salsa, and killer pico. Can't recommend this...

We had wanted to go to one of the seafood places on Fisherman's Wharf after a day at the Aquarium. We have 2 kids too young to get vaccinated, so takeout is a must. Most of those places had no kids' menu, and the two that did, wouldn't take phone orders. WE ARE SO GLAD! We "settled" for Taqueria Zarape, and it was FANTASTIC! The Camarones Mojo was exquisitely buttery and garlicky. The taco salad with carne asada had a perfect balance between the warm and cold ingredients, and the meat was perfectly seasoned. The kids loved their quesadillas, but at 8 and 10, having just spent an hour running around the park, will get the adult size next time. (Oh, yes, there will be a next time! Maybe breakfast tomorrow....
