Daniel MarkhamAugust 1, 2017Do you really need another tip telling you to get the burger here? No. Add jalapeños, though, because why wouldn't you? (They're free btw)
Dilek UnarMay 3, 2017Zapatos are so delicious. Especially, I loved the vegetarian one. The portion is really big.
Peter GazaryanFebruary 4, 2016I was there at the lunch time, and the line was reaching out the entrance door, yet it went very fast, and I got my burger in 20 min.
Don't miss the zapatos (panini pressed burritos). Also they always have great beers on tap.
Love this place! Excellent beer selection and I've never had a bad meal. Highly recommend the tuna tacos.- Amazing! Great beer, great food, perfect ambiance. Best lunch spot in the area... maybe besides the French place!
Cali Steak Zapato is the only way to go... Unless you get the burger... Or the tacos... Actually everything is great here.
Kirk HerlitzMay 17, 2015The pork tacos are the best of the taco choices. The sleeper is the burger - it's really really good!
Alex BosworthSeptember 7, 2016Skip the tacos, go for the loaded fries with guac and cheese. Order up front and then seat yourself, cash only
Burgers, surf and turf tacos...carne asada fries. So tasty, never gets old. And the booths are equipped with phone chargers
Adrian AlonsoMarch 1, 2017The 'Rolls Royce' zapato, the 'Como se llama' and the Ahí Tuna taco are the best
Surfer Leo grilled burrito is a favorite - also you can't go wrong with Carne Asada Fries!
John SteidleSeptember 23, 2016Great fish tacos, especially the ahi and avo. Also a solid beer selection.
For vegetarians- the no meat zapato is great! Maybe have it with fries on the side for a fuller meal.
iPhone 5 chargers built into the tables, slushy sangria, and amaze balls tacos. What's not to love? CASH ONLY!
Cheap awesome food and beer selection.the Como Se llama is like a Taco Bell double-decker but way better. Guacamole is delicious!
OlaNovember 23, 2013There's space upstairs in case you can't find any table on the main level..also don't forget to bring cash :-)
The pulled pork sandwich is one of the vest in the city and the selection of beers is excellent
Maggie WhiteJanuary 4, 2016Steak carnada fries, good beer menu, and crab cake. Not for vegetarians or healthy people
Zapato means shoes in Spanish, and this is called Zapatos because the creases looks like shoe laces. True story.
Surfer Leo Zapatos and craft brews with a cool relaxed feel. Can't go wrong with that.
Zapat-yo self on the back. You made the right choice. Cali-steak if you're like my wife and can't make decisions 😬
The José Wong salad is so much more than just a salad —get it with carnitas and you'll have a blast.
Clay SmithApril 19, 2013Good beer list, excellent ¿como se llama? taco. Don't order more than two of the specialty tacos unless you're starving.
Best burgers in SOMA. Also try the Zapatos... and everything else on the menu. 😃
If you're trying to avoid something too messy, stay away from the ahi burger. Delicious, but nearly impossible to eat without covering your face and hands with slaw.
Packed with workers Around the neighborhood during lunch time. Everything was good. Tacos were great.
Ville SundbergAugust 9, 2014Great beer list. They consistently have St. Bernardus 12 and other Belgian favorites.
Pete's No Meat is a killer vegetarian choice. Ask for black beans instead of refried and you're good to go!
Get everything!! To drink, they have a to-die for sangria. The seating upstairs is the best spot too.
Charlie ChaoJuly 27, 2016Surfer Leo burrito was fantastic. Really liked the interior atmosphere too.
Dania ElFebruary 5, 2015Burgers tacos soccer and beer. Try the zapato if you're feeling more adventurous
Cadillac taco was really good and pretty huge. Street taco was also great.
Bill HoileJanuary 23, 2015The California steak Zapata is OUTSTANDING!!! Great beer selection (no crap on tap)
Great beer list. Often gets very crowded, especially on Giants game days.
Janel TorkingtonSeptember 24, 2013Burgers spectacular, great for low carbers if you skip the bun. Seared ahi tuna a thing of beauty.
Jeffrey ZhaoJuly 17, 2016Cali steak Zapato was good and the fish taco was just ok. Lines can be long though so prepare for a wait!
Louis HarboeJune 12, 2016It's like a burrito but flatter. Get the surfer leo or the cali steak (or both?)
Rhia R.August 16, 2013Some of the best carne asada fries you'll find in The Bay Area. Sounds weird, but true!
