The best auto shop experience I've had in a really long time. They're so friendly, they're very easy to work with, and their prices are fair.

I came to Zapata by recommendation of my boss after being frustrated by big-box auto shops overcharging me and not always providing good service. I was thrilled with the service at Zapata. They worked quickly and were super willing to show me the details of what they saw on my car. Hiram and his sons were friendly, and the unnamed garage cat and dog Porfilio were an added bonus. Finally, the pricing was very reasonable. Just the good old-fashioned auto garage that I was looking for.

Only "knock" is that it is not super easy to see off the street. Pull into the parking lot for Dapper

I’ll start by saying I like to repair my own vehicles when I believe I am able and sometimes it doesn’t work out. This was one of those times. I snapped a bolt off and tried to drill and tap it myself. When that also didn’t work out I took it to Hiram and explained myself, we had a little laugh on what I had done but he was respectful. Hiram fixed it at a reasonable fee and even gave me advice for a future repair I am attempting. He even offered to help get a typically stubborn bolt loose before I started the project. I will come back to Hiram for future advice and repairs. Though they work

Took a stubborn wheel bearing to get pressed out. The owner was able to get it done quickly. Cool guys to work with. Affordable price. Will be coming back here again.

This is where my dad takes his cars for repair so by far this is where I take my car. Iram is super nice and very easily explained the status of my car and took care of it in that very moment. Price is where it should be, quick and sees to fix your needs ASAP

Hiram is a magical maestro mechanic! I'm convinced he's the only one who could have pulled off my extremely complicated engine swap so perfectly.
He's also a good, honest man who goes above and beyond and cares to do the right thing (not just for the money). Finally found a mechanic I trust👍

Hiram and his crew know what they're doing. Prices are fair. He'll tell you what needs fixing and perhaps just as important what doesn't need fixing, or what might not be worth fixing. America needs more immigrants like these guys.

The guy told me I should take my car to dealership because I called to clarify the quote. He said calling made him feel I'm not confident in his service, which is crazy.
Found hom rude and aggressive

Dog's name = Porfillio.
Rates per hour = $
Injection cleaning = $49.99
I thought I submitted this but I guess I forgot to finish the review.
Anywhoo, they just celebrated 10 years which caught me off guard. I thought these guys had been around for the last 2 maybe 3 years. So much of for what I know.

Hiriam is a good dude, solid guy that you can trust won't upcharge you just because you've got lady bits and showed up without a man to get the "right" price. Yeah, there are a number of shops that still overcharge ladies as if we can't just look up the prices even

After being in Madison a couple years, I am happy to have found a team of friendly and trustworthy mechanics. I was referred through a friend, and it was immediately apparent this was exactly what I was looking for in a shop. Other customers obviously knew the owner from the community or through years of service, and I even ran into someone else I knew.

Hiram, the owner is patient with customers and willing to communicate regarding any doubts. His team did quality work on my car at a fraction of the price of the dealer. He delivered results quickly in the time promised.

Plus, they have a really
