Highly recommend for delicious Mexican food. Great atmosphere, lots of variety for both vegetarian and non vegetarian patrons. Large portion sizes, but not too big to be wasteful.

Very efficient booking process and staff always polite. Great location: Melbourne St North Adelaide is easier to get a park in than nearby O’Connell St.

The food was great as usual but the service was extremely slow and they were not busy on the night. 20 minutes before someone even walked past so we could ask for dessert and water.

Had Enchiladas and Tacos. Both done well and full of flavour. Have been a few times over the years and always consistently good. Their half price Margerita night on Thursdays is always good value. Definitely worth a visit for well done Mexican food.

The food was great as usual. The ribs were tasty, the nachos were cheesy and the Chile Colorado was spicy and tender. Fast and friendly service.

The nachos were excellent (we have had a few bad experiences while travelling lately so it was great to come home to great nachos!) but the Chile Colorado was over salted and I couldn't eat it. They were good about it, taking it away and offering something else. Obviously we weren't charged for the Colorado and they also comped us our desserts which we appreciated. The steak was underdone - raw in the middle, so if people want it medium rare, best to ask for medium I reckon. The ribs and dessert were good. We'll go back because it's rare to have a bad experience at Zapatas and it wasn't terrible even so.

Dips and Fish Tacos were great! However Enchiladas were a little dry. We were also left with empty glasses & empty entree plates for far too long. Would have helped if water was supplied.

We've been to Zapatas a lot over the years and it remains one of our favourite Mexican restaurants. Unfortunately the food tonight wasn't *quite* as good as it usually is, the pork ribs lacked sauce and service was a little slow. The enchiladas and the chocolate donkey were excellent though!

Nice food - nice ambience Too many over eager waiting staff asking if we wanted to order - we were asked by 4 staff in about 2 minutes! Guess it's better than not getting served? Felt a little rushed as a result. Reasonable value...

Great food and sangria. Id definitely eat there again. Probably the best mexican food I have had outside of southern California. And the guacamole exceeded expectations
