What Our Customers Are Saying

"There are no words to describe how great Zocalo is!"

"The Quesabirria was so good! The crispy shell perfectly complemented the well-seasoned meat, and the generous amount of cheese and onions added the perfect touch of flavor. The dipping broth was also a standout, adding even more depth to the dish."

"To be honest, it is a wonderful place to stop by if you want to eat some very great comfort food with wonderful service!"
