Doña Zita

7.7/10Mexican

AI-generated summary

Cash only, tucked off the Coney Island boardwalk. The cemita is the pick, and people warn one is too big for a single person to finish. Tacos and quesadillas are solid too, and regulars say the prices are very reasonable.

“We love Doña Zita. It’s a cash-only for solid and fresh tacos, quesadillas and cemitas. The employees are super nice and they have a little patio.”

“make sure to bring a friend, because it is not physically possible for a single human being to eat one of those cemitas or tortas on their own.”

replying to u/SidSalts: I looked at the photos and don't think it was Doña Zita. It was a food truck or trailer, not on the main strip, and had a bunch of picnic tables -- in case those are clues. I also recall eating my tacos fast because it was loud AF.

“They turn into the world's best tacos. Just a busy few tables at the best afternoon-vacation spot. It's life affirming.”
