Reviews for Zia Taqueria in Charleston, SC
We had impromptu dinner since I was craving for Mexican food and find this place on google map. Zia Taqueria was not busy on... Sunday night and we kinda enjoy that. I had their burrito special with spicy carnitas, sliced jalapeños, black beans and riceand crema sauce. It was so good! My husband had spicy fish sandwich and the seasoning on the fish was so good. Although, hethink the fish will taste better on the taco instead of buns. Overall, the food is good and also the drinks! Our waiter,Ella,was nice and attentive. We'll be back! Read more
Excellent tacos! This is the one taco place we eat in Charleston that has my husband?s approval. The tacos taste like what he?s... used to in the Southwest. So delicious! Read more
We LOVE what Love is doing here! I?ve been to Zia twice. Both times pleasantly surprised! As a Mexican with high standards for... authentic Mexican food, I especially loved the borracho beans and authentic chips and salsa! Today Sarah went out of her way tomake me a raspberry flavored Margarita that was delicious! And after telling Love that we had just left another Mexicanrestaurant after being disappointed with that restaurant?s salsa, which tasted like canned tomato sauce and told her we couldn?tend my birthday on that note, she surprised us with a slice of tres leches cake! What awesome customer service! Top end foodand even better service. We will be back ?? Read more
If I could give this restaurant zero stars I would! The service was awful! We had 3 different waitresses and waiters and had to... wait a very long time to get our drinks. They didn't even bother to take our food order after we had been sitting there foralmost 45 minutes. We talked to the manager nicely about the situation and service and she had the audacity to come up to ourtable and told us "Do we want our drinks or just to take the check and leave?" Wow!! Never have I ever been treated which suchdisrespectful by a manager of a restaurant! For someone who lives on John's Island I will never be back there again or recommendthis place to anyone! You just lose so much business. If you can't run a restaurant the right way then you shouldn't be amanager. This to the blonde manager with glasses!! Goodnight! Read more
The food was good enough, 3/5. However, the service was very poor. The woman who I think may have been assigned as bar back was... rude and condescending to our party. I do not know for sure what her role was, as she did not seem to be helping anyone else onthe staff. Worst of all, and I am being very serious here, she clearly hadn?t bathed anytime recently. Maybe she was having anoff day, but her attitude was unacceptable. Zia has lost my business and I will be sure to pass along my experience to othersmoving forward. Read more
First happened upon Zia in NC near Asheville, great little hopping taco spot. Saw that they had a location in Charleston and... had to check it out. Atmosphere was quite nice. My wife and enjoyed some great margaritas from JOSH. We had the taquitos appand that pepper, vegetables pickled relish was to die for when combined with the fresh guac and crema fresh. Next the tacos!!! Let me just say that if taco bell can sell millions and they suck?.Zia couldn?t make tacos fast enough if everyone knew how goodthese were. Barbacoa and Baja fish were out of bounds delicious. My wife had their portabella mushroom taco and it too wasincredible. Seriously people?.just go and have tacos and Tequilla. Perfect place for it in Charleston or the mountains. Don?teven waste any more time anywhere else. Keep up the awesome tacos and tequilla Zia!! Read more
Absolutely delicious. The dining experience was a bit odd to this first timer, as they don't have traditional servers. You go to... the counter, order and pay for your food and drinks, and take your drinks to an open table, they then bring your food out to youwhen it's ready. Aside from that it was an awesome experience. The staff was super friendly and helpful, and every single thingwe ordered was amazing. We will 100% be back, and I actually almost went back the next day. A++++ Read more
