We have been to Zapata's several times. The atmosphere is good, the food is average, good for this area. The bean soup needs help. The salsa tastes canned, or at least partially. The bar staff knows how to work the crowd. We witnessed patrons being over served to the point of not being able to walk. The prices are high and not a great value. Our chips have been stale and rubbery with two different meals. The bean soup is a joke and without taste or seasoning the two times tried, anyone can boil water and throw the beans in. Good place for to meet with people, large tables and high ceilings made for good sound. Bathrooms were bright and stocked, cleaner than other restaurants in the Texarkana Arkansas and Texarkana Texas areas that we have visited. 4 stars only because the Yahoo Local will not allow for 3.5. Don't go expecting a super meal, just decent service.
Great food, great service. This place is hard to beat. I love to take business clients here. Of all the places in Texarkana, this is where everybody wants to come back to.
Zapata's has a great reputation and good (if overpriced) food, but I found them to be very inflexible when I ordered a cheese quesadilla. Since they don't have a "cheese quesadilla" key on their computer, they cannot charge less than they would for their meat-filled quesadillas. If you order directly from the menu, you should be fine. Just don't expect any special accommodations. I personally find their lack of flexibility distasteful.

I agree w/your comment, their food is way overpriced and the location is not that great and their food is not much better than any of the other resteraunts in town, I think people are paying for the atmosphere more. Alot of young business people go there, but I won't be going in anymore. I have been twice in 5 years and I personally think its a waste of my time and money.
