Although the service was friendly, it was very scarce. We ordered drinks and food initially and no one came near us again except to deliver our order to the table. No clearing up, No asking if we would like more drinks, no desert menu offer etc. We ended up just leaving and getting coffee and desert elsewhere. Food was good and service was friendly.

Service was good but 2 plates were dirty which wasn’t good, also the food was a disappointment for us the flavours just weren’t there. Usually it’s very delicious

Food was tasteless. Service was poor at best. Whiole Place was a far cry from clean. I wouldn’t go there again or recommend to anyone.

The food was nice. The kids meals were a good size. The adult meals had way too much rice compared to the main food. The service staff were friendly but slow.

Great venue for kids party. We had our house 11 yo birthday party. 3 adults and 7 kids between 11-13yo. Enjoyed the food while adults can have nice Sangria and the foreign beers. Great place for Coeliac as most food is Gluten Free.

Staff were lovely and professional. Only down side was there was a bit of a wait for our meals. But it was because the restaurant was so busy and probably could have done with one extra waiter/waitress. Food and drinks were delicious. Please thank the staff for job well done tonight.

We always have a great meal at Montezuma's Capalaba. The staff are lovely and when there was a bit of a delay with our meal we were provided with complimentary corn chips and sauce to tide us over. Never disappoints!

Margaritas (shaken not frozen) were excellent. Food was good but was expecting it to have some spice but all 4 main dishes were neutral in spice. Needed the extra side dishes - jalapenos etc (at extra cost) to give it some zing. Would go back.

Definitely needed more staff on - the poor waiters looked run off their feet. After we were seated two more tables were seated near us. They then got their orders taken and received their food before us, which we weren’t thrilled about as we were in a hurry. The food was great though! Overall, our experience was good - just put more staff on so mistakes like this don’t happen!

Wonderful food and awesome service. Would have nice to have not been placed at a table directly next to a family of children having a birthday celebration (i'm assuming because we were with our son) when the restaurant was half empty, but we still had a great time.

nice atmosphere (but a little chilly at times). food was great and very filling. I usually get the chicken fajita. it has changed a little. It was nice but would have preferred the old option of it sizzling and without the pickle mixture.

Great food and atmosphere but obviously understaffed...long wait times, forgotten drink orders and plates not cleared. The staff were lovely but just couldn't handle the workload. The adult half size nachos is ridiculously small when compared with a kids serve which is much cheaper and has more on the plate. Considering it mostly corn chipa..noone would be happy spending $19 on a snack size plate of chips with a side of sour cream and extra $3 for guacamole that wouldn't fit the palm of your hand. If you'd like a comparison...look at what Guzman y Gomez offer for almost half that price. Great place but when clearly understaffed and scraping on servings it makes we wonder if the restaurant is struggling to remain competitive.

The food was well presented but very over priced for what was delivered, not what was described by either the menu or waitress and did not remotely resemble "the taste of mexico". Or much taste at all for that matter.

I wanted to like this place way more than I did. We ordered the taquito platter with 4 taquitos on a bed of Spanish rice. The so called "bed of Spanish rice" was so thin and burned around the edges it was hardly a bed but more of a garnish. Rice is cheap so I expected more on the plate for 18 dollars. We ordered the chips and a large order of guacamole afterwards, and the small bowl of it for 5 dollars was a little high in price, but pay 3 dollars for a handful of tortilla chips felt really high. If the food was really nice I would have considered the prices to be more reasonable, but it didn't have much flavour, which made me a little sad. The taquitos were crispy but the beef didn't have much in the way of spices and felt slightly dry, and it felt like they needed something other than the little bit of salsa and cheese on them. I really wanted to like the place, but I was a little disappointed. I want to come back and try another dish and see if this experience was just a fluke, and maybe I'm just being too critical, or too used to American prices for the same meal. The service was pleasant though, and I hope you can improve on pricing and seasoning of food.

Great food, good service and nice relaxing ambience. Highly recommend Sanan Andreas (garlic prawns) for mains with Guacamole dip on side. Goes well with Montezuma's Sangria. Always enjoy going back for more.

Service was friendly and the food was pretty good. They should allow for a few swaps in a few of their meals though. Nice establishment
