Montezuma's - Taringa

Our reserved table was ready when we walked in, and we were able to order drinks and menu items quickly. We received our drinks and appetizers with not too much wait, but our food arrived well over an hour later. The service staff didn't stop by to enquire if we needed additional drinks while we waited, and when the food arrived, it was over done with the top of the rice dried out and burnt and the sour cream dried as well. The service staff raced off without enquiring if we needed drink refills, so we flagged one down and asked for a bottle of water. She brought it to us and raced off again without bringing glasses. We used one glass at the table for everyone to share. No one asked if we needed anything and the restaurant was virtually empty. It was very disappointing overall.

The meal was lovely, unfortunately we had to wait long time for meal,there were 15 of us so understand this, however they were closing around us while we were having birthday cake.

Fast efficient and friendly service, though with not much care given because we were late arriving and they wanted to close. Orders were well cooked however some elements of food were dry and bland.

Why do they close so early on a Saturday night, we didnt get a chance to get desert. Not that you need desert, when the portions are so big ! It's a shame they close early though! Love the food and the sangria !

Meal was delicious as always and the staff were very attentive and done a wonderful job looking after our table. But of a wait for our meals but worth it.

Food was very good with generous portions and cocktails most enjoyable. Service was a little slow with side dishes and extra corn chips. Food and drinks otherwise were delivered speedily. It wasn’t a particularly busy restaurant even though it was a Saturday night.

Our meals were great and we really enjoyed them. Unfortunately a noisy children's party made it hard to hear at times even though we were at the opposite end of the room. Staff were very attentive.

The food is always exceptional and the staff are really friendly. I would recommend Montes. The sangaria is delicious too. Great place to relax on a Friday night. You should book on a Friday and Saturday night,

The food was as delicious as always! Staff were attentive and it was a busy evening. A few times we had to remind about extra drinks being ordered. There were no pencil cases for the little ones to colour their sheets though :( Still loved our evening with great food, company and atmosphere.

Food taste great and good portions friendly staff nice back ground music relaxing feeling and looking popular as it was busy plenty parking outside available

The servers are always attentive and friendly and the food was awesome as always. One of our favorite places to take the family for dinner.

The food and service as always were awesome. We will be back for sure.

Service and food were awesome, we will be back for sure.

The staff were very fast, very friendly and very available when needed. I couldnt decide what to order and i was asked every couple of minutes if I was ready or needed a hand. Drinks were served very quickly. Food was served piping hot and quickly as well great job all round.

Nice atmosphere inside and big meals. We’ve been a couple of times now and they always seem to be run off their feet with meals taking over 40 minutes to arrive. Expect a wait for food.

. . . . . . . . .Friendly and prompt service. Food was great. Will certainly be back for more mexican. . . .

Experience was delightful for a Saturday evening. There was a little bit of a wait for the meals to be served due to the number of people. However, the meals were delicious and enjoyed to the last mouthful.

Staff were very new the night we went. Like first day new. Very awkward and uncomfortable when taking orders and bringing food. Otherwise good, food is always good there.

Lovely service, great meals! From the moment we arrived we were looked after by friendly servers. They were happy to work with us to choose a meal that a non-Mexican eater could try - and he loved it :-)

Fabulous Mexican food with great service. Great for the whole family. The restaurant has a bright atmosphere and offers a great selection of gluten free meals.

The trade mark dish Montezumas Delight (Veg) was delicious. However the size/amount of the serving was not overly generous. Although I am a small eater, I was still feeling hungry after this main. Dianne, Taringa.

The meal took forever to arrive and, when it did, mine was cold while my husband’s was too hot to eat and burnt around the edges.

We had really great food when we dined for lunch on Saturday . They serve excellent kids meals. This place is a real family favourite :)

Food and service were good. Food was fresh and tasty. Service was friendly and prompt. Only niggle was the drinks we ordered were unavailable as they didn't have the ingredients but there were good alternatives.

The staff were friendly and the food was fine. We were asked to leave just before 8.30pm which seemed early. There was no decaf coffee available.

This montezumas has been at Taringa for so long, and the food is still great. They make a yummy margarita too. Good night was had.

Food was good, wait ones were good, but they could warn you about the boiling hot plate so you don’t end up with four incredibly burnt fingers.

Was a busy Saturday night, but once we ordered the food it came in good time for 8 people. They were also happy to bring out a birthday cake we provided and sing Happy Birthday for one of the kids in our group, which was much appreciated. A fun, vibrant and noisy place with great food and drinks - but watch the hot plates especially with kids!

My Husband and I have been going to Montezuma's for 24 years - it was actually our first dinner date. The service has always been terrific and the food is fresh, tasty and the portion just right. We both tried new dishes (for us) and were delighted with our choices.

Great family restaurant. The kids meal options are excellent. This a family favourite of ours and we always go to celebrate birthdays. Really missed seeing Mel on this visit. ... she's so professional and friendly. She is one of the reasons we love the restaurant so much.

It has been a long time since at a Montezuma's. The service was friendly and the food was served promptly and tasted great. I will be back.

I thought the restaurant is too pricey and the food is just standard. We felt the wait was a little long, several tables of people all looking around waiting for their food. I wouldn't return as the cost is way too high.

Customer service wasn't the greatest. Staff were kind but didn't pay much attention to customers, had to get up and walk over to get attention

Very friendly staff. Our orders were taken very quickly and the food was very quick in coming out. Food was amazing as usual. From start to finish a very enjoyable evening.

The food is tasty and they are quite large servings. The prices are also reasonable. Our waiter was very good - he was polite and professional.

Always a good serve of food and tasty as ever. Sangria was excellent value and tasted good. Servers were really friendly as well, thanks for a good night.

Whilst the service was excellent, I am afraid that the food was not as good as previously experienced. The party of five felt the same way. Has there been changes regarding the food?

I have gone to Montezumas before, years ago. Decided to try them again (loved them the first time around) and take the twins this time (teenagers). They loved it and I still found it to be great. One had the meatballs, the other the San Andreas (? spelling) prawns in a pan. I had the San Antonio nachos with extras. The wine was good quality for the meal, the restaurant was a bit quiet (midday on a Friday) and the service was spot-on. Looking at going again next school holidays.

Great food but took forever to get wait staff’s attention for take away containers

food was great, but it took quite a while to get served so didn't have time to get churros for dessert (which is quite devastating)
