I will have to say the food here is bomb! I've been here a few times since they've open and really thought this place had potential then and now it's a spot to be at! For a game, to hang with friends...all of it! The server here Jackie is cool as hell! She really helps with setting the vibe of this place and for birthdays or just special occasions in general she does candy shots. If you have any questions about what to order she will direct you to some good food. The go to here is the passion fruit margaritas, birria with consommé, carne asada tacos (they don't make it well done but not super medium either - just perfect), truffle fries with some chili something or another, the chili lime wings, stay away from the lemon pepper - too salty for my taste. And sports games all around! And if you ask them to change they definitely will do it for you. This place has a party vibe so make sure you come to enjoy. Oh and Tuesdays and Thursdays they do some sort of sip and paint. Seems pretty cool!!! read more

I was here for an event and it was my first time! Parking can be a bit challenging because it's a very busy area. The ambiance was very cute with all of the decorations and lighting. I also enjoyed how many TVs there were, especially for the event. The service was great and we were checked on many times, which I appreciated. My drink was delicious and so were the chicken tinga taquitos. I did enjoy the truffle fries, however, I wish we were asked if we wanted them spicy or not spicy because they came out with chili. I didn't mind, but I know some of my friends did. The churro plate was pretty good, but the churros were a bit too hard. read more

[I regret not taking more pics - the place was so great I just simply forgot] Came here by complete chance, but I'm so glad we did! :) The tapas options are phenomenal! From the tacos and empanadas to the bacon wrapped dates and jungle fries, every choice was a great one! There was also a good assortment on beers on tap as well. The service was as on point as the food, our glasses were never empty, and they were on top of things the entire time. The ambiance was that of a Latin themed tapas bar. Music, plenty of people talking and enjoying the evening, and generally just a good vibe. :) I'd return there for sure! The food and service both were above expectation! read more

HIGHKEY RECOMMEND CELEBRATING WITH ZAMA I decided to celebrate my birthday here the week before Thanksgiving and was so glad I did! I booked my reservation on OpenTable two weeks before and updated my reservation three days before the date. (this is a must!) We came in 20 minutes early, and our table was already ready. Complete with balloons and all, they were ready to celebrate with me! From the food to the service, everything was top-notch! I definitely recommend the espresso martini tower, the jungle fries, and the carne asada burrito- don't forget to make it wet! The biggest shoutout to Andy and Matt for making our dinner celebration flawless! The boys were sad to see that the game day menu wasn't an option for the evening so we will definitely be back to try that too! read more

PSA// This review is based on the single drink I had here lol. But worthy of a s/o, the Cucumber Serrano Margarita here was one of thee best spicy margaritas that I've had-- and that's my go-to drink everywhere. It was the right amount of kick that blended very well with the tequila. They also know how to do a tajin rim the right way! Right consistency of chamoy and on-brand tajin. read more

Zama - Cucumber Serrano margarita - Lounges Near Me - Fullerton, California

Lounge, a place to sit back and relax with the music to make your toes tap. Bar in the front and patio in the back with drinks flowing and delicious knick knacks. A perfect place to meet up with homies and besties. The atmosphere was old school when we came in so that was a plus for us. Our server was helpful and gave us great recommendations on food and drinks we should try. The bacon wrapped dates and the truffle rolls came out first and they were just perfect to start off with. Their margarita flight was also a hit with flavor and potency! LoL. Up next was the Birria tacos and ceviche and they capped off a delicious foursome of flavor as far as our tid bits go. The experience was a hit and honestly I think it's a perfect place to chill on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. Parking is in the back for easy access. And that's my take, Peace read more

1,000% YES I would recommend Zama Lounge in downtown Fullerton, especially if your server is Cierra!! She was super nice and very friendly from start to finish! Our Gold Elite Crew of 4 decided to meet here to welcome our East Coaster, Terri E. to the West Siiiiiide! Leonard A. is the head honcho who pulled it together, and we all had a great time. I was the first of the bunch to arrive, followed by Terri, Leonard, and Lynn. We pretty much got to pick where we wanted to sit, as the restaurant had just opened. The vibe is cool and casual, and they have a bar for all the pretty drinks you could ever want. We ordered some appetizers and drinks, and there wasn't anything we didn't like. What we got: Food: Chips and Salsa Shrimp Ceviche Truffle Roll Birria Taco Platter Bacon Wrapped Dates Drinks: Margarita Flights, Not Feelings! CUTE NAME!! Cancun Waters Breakfast Shot Cucumber Serrano Oasis Margarita Zama Fresca Mocktail I loved my Cancun Waters. It was just how I like my alchi: fruity, not too sweet, just the right amount of the good stuff, and BLUE! lol I ordered the Chips and Salsa when I meant to say guacamole, but Cierra was so kind and brought out some guac for me! We shared everything, and I think we all agreed that the Bacon Wrapped Dates are the perfect combination of sweet and savory! The Truffle Roll was bomb, and so was the Shrimp Ceviche. I didn't taste the Birria Tacos, but the group said it was yummayyyy and I believe them! Just looking at it made me want to inhale one, but I double stuffed myself that day, oopsie! The prices are average, the service is amazing, and there's a parking lot in the back of the building. I think you have to pay during the week, but I'm not sure since I didn't park there. There's also street parking. I highly recommend Zama for a date night or group date with your crew. Hope you have as much fun as we did! read more

Came here on a Sunday afternoon for drinks. Ambiance: 1/5 If you want a chill place to drink, chat, and watch some sports games, this is NOT the place to do so. The music was so loud that you're barely able to hear the people sitting next to you. This place also has an identity crisis, it a weird mix between a sports bar, cantina, a club, and a want to be high end brunch. I did not care for the vibes here. Service: 3/5 There was no wait to get a table. Once we got a table, it took some time before our waitress came and greeted us. It took even longer to get our drinks out and to get our checks at the end. Drinks: 3/5 We got a margarita flight which was pretty good. They flavors were unique and refreshing. It was very light in alcohol however. My favorite was the passion fruit one. My friend also order a Cabernet that he did it care for. He said it tasted too tart. I am not a wine connoisseur so I cannot speak on that, but they brought it out in a little vile and poured it into the wine glass. It felt u necessary. read more

We came to Zama Bar Kitchen & Lounge for the first time to check out their happy hour after a long week at work, and it did not disappoint! For drinks, we all went with margaritas. I had the cucumber serrano margarita--super refreshing with just the right kick. One friend tried the passion fruit margarita, and another went with the coconut margarita. All three were absolutely delicious! I usually find margaritas too sweet at other places, but these were perfectly balanced. For food, we ordered a mix of appetizers to share: the chicharrón, chicken tinga taquitos, and the birria empanadas. Everything was tasty, but the birria empanadas were hands down my favorite--so flavorful! The staff was attentive and friendly, and the bill was surprisingly reasonable considering how much food and drinks we had. The decor is also super cute, with a great vibe overall. Definitely planning to come back! read more

A great date night spot located in DT Fullerton. Cute, narrowed space full bar/lounge with awesome food. Parking can be difficult but there are street parking nearby. Food: (5/5) We ordered the Gobernador shrimp tacos and house made shredded chicken tinga taquitos. Both were good, but the gobernador shrimp tacos really hit the spot! It was soooo good that I had to recreate it at home. Drinks: (4/5) I had the New Fashion, which is their version of old fashion, complete with table side experience. Not bad but not the best. Ambiance: (5/5) Nice decor, not too loud, comfortable, bright, fun, and clean. Service: (5/5) Fast, efficient, personable staff. They have daily specials and happy hour specials from Tuesday- Friday (2-6pm), and Sunday all day happy hour. This place is a must visit if you're in DT Fullerton. read more

Tried Zamas for the first time from a recommendation and I enjoyed it very much. The vibe is tropical safari very nicely decorated. The restroom was squeaky clean and the stalls even have a small corner table to place bags. Sunday is happy hour all day, we ordered nachos from the appetizer menu, very tasty and a great for sharing. We also got the tinga taquitos 10/10 with the sauce it comes with. The sweet chili wings were my favorite! The size of the wings are average, the perfect amount of spice and sweet and overall very flavorful. The servence was great, Jax was very attentive and provided friendly and great service. I am excited to come back with more friends! read more

Celebrated my husband's birthday at Zama before heading out for more drinks & dancing. HIGHLY recommend. 10/10 The food was amazing in quality and flavor. Get the birria empenadas, you will not be disappointed. Or even just a simple carne asada taco, the salsa is bomb. Cant go wrong with either. Drinks and service were quick, friendly and sweet. Location is really cool with lots of nice decor and enough t.v.s for everyone LOL thank you, gabi read more

We came here for Happy Hour and were very pleased with the selections. Flavor wise The chili lime wings were my favorite, the bacon wrapped dates were delicious, the taquitos were fine, and the truffle fries were good with some spice. I like spicy but the menu should definitely mention the fries have a kick. The drinks were a bit of a let down, while they looked pretty and I appreciated the different garnishes they were pretty light on the alcohol. We tried the Pineapple and Jamaica margaritas and they were mediocre. I do often wonder if happy hour drinks are lighter on the alcohol so if I go back during normal hours I'll update this review. The service was good and the wait staff were personable. The bar itself is okay - typical size for DTF - a little loud so it probably would not be somewhere I would go to meet with friends to catch up. The wall behind the bar was full of TVs so it would definitely be a fun place to go to catch a game. read more

Good value for the happy hour selection, food portions, and prices! Drink We got the Cancun waters drink that came with a fire show. Our server was nice, I asked if the drink was sweet and he said yes. I didn't want it too sweet, so he made it less sweet for me. The drink tasted fine, but nothing to rave about. Food We ordered the bacon wrapped dates, taquitos, and Zama wings and they didn't disappoint. read more

I came here to watch Love Island with a couple of friends and I was very disappointed to say the less. Service was REALLY BAD. It took 1 hour to get a beer. Once I flagged someone to cancel the beer, they brought it. It was the wrong beer but I drank that one cuz I was afraid I had to wait another hour for the correct one. Some food items never came out so we had to cancel those as well. A small bowl of fruits that we order at 5 right when happy hour started, we got it 10 min before the episode ended. (We even forgot we had ordered it). If you are hosting an event make sure to have the appropriate amount of help. It was frustrating because the table to our right, were friend with one of the workers there and they would have drinks and food coming non stop. I would not go back there or recommend this place to my friends unless something changes. read more

Woah. This is a great spot for brunch and drinks. My group and I went on Sunday to catch some NFL games and it was truly the best vibe in there. We went all out. Literally. We got the a tiered margarita tower and espresso martini and mimosa flights. All came out and were amazing presentation-wise. And for the foodies, we looooved the Birria Burger, chicken wings (garlic parm are bomb here), mazapan pancakes, Birria eggs benedict, and asada chilaquiles! If you get anything, try their Birria. Best around! read more

Came here to celebrate my buddy's birthday and it did not disappoint. Theres plenty of parking available (street, parking structure, paid lots), although I did come on a Thursday night so will be different on Fridays and weekends. Staff here are very friendly, plenty of tv's around the bar area to watch the games. Ordered the Zama burger and it was very juicy and delicious. It comes on a wooden board, so make sure you have plenty of napkins on hand because it will get messy. Drinks here are pretty good, plenty of options and they do have happy hour until 6 Pm. read more

Great lounge and food just lack of communication from the owners/managers. Arrived and "waited for chef" 30 min, only to be told he's not in for 2 more hours. Maybe a heads up next time, but not surprised with the way ownership runs this place. Last time here the male owner disrespected my party while reeking alcohol. Food and vibes are great, ownership and communication can do with some improving. read more

Great food, drinks and service. I highly recommend it. Food was freshly made and hot. Tinga taquitos were delicious 5/5. Guacamole was freshly made and portion was large. I also recommend the Birria Empanadas specially when you dip it in the consomé. They are pretty large too. Moving to the drinks. They were great and we asked for them to not be too sweet. Bartender customized it perfectly. Our waitress was sweet and patient. Never did we feel rushed. I really appreciate that. It's been a while that I can enjoy a nice conversation with the family at a restaurant without being rushed out. read more

It wasn't busy, but we also went pretty early on a Saturday afternoon. We had a hard time picking what to drink or eat. We ended up getting Margueritas and some appetizers, and 2 meals. We got wings, a salad, and the birria tacos, as well as guacamole and chips and salsa. The birria tacos had very flavorful meat. The tortillas were a little hard so the last one I picked out the meat. My friend enjoyed her salad and the other enjoyed her wings. The service was decent. It wasn't bad or good. It wouldn't be my first choice for a next meal but I'd go if someone else suggested it. Hopefully that makes sense. The ambiance is very nice and modern with spanish music playing in the background. There is plenty of parking. read more

There's a large parking lot behind the restaurant. But it's usually pretty full so plan to possibly walk a bit to get here. The restaurant is really beautiful and perfect for groups. They have seating along the side and back. They also have two entrances to the restaurant. The host side is by the parking lots. Our server was pretty nice. She checked in a few times on us. We were a bit disappointed by the food. The cauliflower tacos were very plain and had a sauce over it but not much flavor. The jungle fries were a bit more pricey but I don't think there was any flavor and wasn't worth it. The menu said guacamole sauce and honestly it tasted like avocados that were mixed with water. I got it without the grilled asada so that might add some flavor from the meat. But it's disappointing that the sauce and toppings added no flavor. We probably would only return for the drinks which were great. And the vibe of the restaurant is very fun. read more

I've had drinks here a few times, but I finally stopped in on the 4th of July to have a meal. Everything was fabulous. It was a party of 3. My husband and I shared the carne asada nachos without jalapeños and the lemon pepper wings. Both dishes were phenomenal. The nachos had the perfect combination of each ingredient in every bite. The guacamole was fantastic. The asada was marinated to perfection. The wings were the best lemon pepper wings we have ever had! My grandpa wasn't too hungry, so he had a fish taco. He enjoyed it. We also got to sample the chicken taquitos and the bacon wrapped dates. Both were good. We topped off our lunch with tasty sangria. The service was great. There was only 1 server/ bartender and one chef. They were working hard. The restaurant is beautiful, and my husband and I can't wait to go back for date night. read more

Came here for the Love Island Watch Party. They had a happy hour menu so I got the Taco Variety Platter and the Shrimp Ceviche. The taco variety platter was huge and so flavorful. The Asada was insanely tender and so good!! The shrimp ceviche was so refreshing. The drinks were amazing as well. Service was phenomenal!! Our waitress kept checking up on us and despite being busy, was really attentive to everyone. They did make an announcement asking everyone to be patient with them, but they handled business so well. I would get there early for the watch parties and seats can fill up fast. We arrived at 5:15pm (showing at 6pm) and managed to get a table towards the back with still visible viewing of the TV. read more

Wow, what a great date night place! Located in DT Fullerton, it's a bit hard to find parking as all of the restaurants are congregated in the same section. It's a small narrow restaurant but cute decor with mural, plants throughout. I'm here for the food, it was delicious. They mentioned everything could take awhile because it's handmade but I didn't feel like we waited that long. Birria plate, a must, very uniqu. Aguachiles had great flavor. Homemade tortillas were wonderful. The guacamole had a unique flavor and tasty. I had the new fresca margarita. Everything was served tapas style and very tasty! The offer the Margarita flight only during brunch so I'll have to come back for that. read more

A cool little hangout place located in the heart of Downtown Fullerton. I highly recommend their happy hour! Our group went on a Wednesday and had a great time! We ordered the taquitos, bacon-wrapped dates, wings, & nachos, which was my favorite. We also availed their promotion for this week which was an $18 beer bucket. You can pick and choose 6 bottles or cans of beer. My friend said the house wine was good. The girls got the classic margaritas for $8, +1 if you want it flavored. It was good, although a bit on the saltier side. I would suggest following their social media to know what promotions they have. I was having so much fun that I totally forgot that you get a free dessert when you check-in on Yelp. I would come back to try out other drinks on the menu and brunch on the weekend. read more
