Zocalo Midtown offers a lively atmosphere with "amazing food and service." Guests rave about the "delicious mole enchiladas" and "fantastic margaritas." While the restaurant can be "very loud" inside, the outdoor seating is a pleasant option. It's an ideal spot for celebrations and enjoying authentic Mexican cuisine with attentive, friendly staff.

We went there for brunch. Service was excellent, they were attentive to food allergies and tried their best to accommodate. Kid-friendly. Food portions were reasonably generous. We especially loved the ceviche. Recommended!

Went at about 6pm on Saturday 11-23-2024 and they were packed - lots of large parties going on, at least 4 that I could tell, making it almost too noisy to enjoy the experience. Service was still top notch, as was the food. I will be back, just not on a weekend night, as personally I'm not fond of crowds like that. Guess it is the price to pay for liking a being a popular eatery so much.

The food and service are great. The decor is excellent but the noise level always makes it tough to carry on a conversation.
