   The beans and rice were cold. We told our server and another serving was brought to us. They were luke warm. We ended up taking them home to hear in our microwave. My burrito was amazing though! I ate half of it and took the other half home to eat with my hot beans and rice. Not a fan of luke warm food. I’ll be back though!

   Overall a great experience, always. My only complaint would be that the cochinita pibil was super dried out- almost like burnt ends or a beef jerky. It is usually super moist and flavorful. Not sure what happened…I may have just got a bad batch.

    Music was super loud, felt like I had to talk really loud to hear my date. The server disappeared after the first 40 minutes and after we ordered, never returned. The chairs we sat in look all beat up and ready for replacement. Also there were flies inside which is disgusting.

    Went for dinner in a Saturday party of 6. The noise in this place is tremendous. Like big echo room. Very hard to heard and speak to waiters Meal took to long to arrive. Requested move to outside and they never came back to let us know. It was open tables there.

    I went during HH. Made a reservation online, arrived 15 minutes early and was seated promptly, provided HH & dinner menus. I ordered from both. Water, chips and salsa was refilled promptly. Great service, drinks and food were out quickly. Check had a QR code to pay. Great experience!

    We did not have napkins or the correct number of placesettings for 15-20 minutes, finally had to ask. Same for water, had to ask for both glasses and water. Water was not refilled. Service was subpar.

    Inside was incredibly noisy so we moved outside. Good service, good food but the margaritas were terrible! Ordered a pitcher of house margaritas and it was watery,bland and terrible. A bottled mix would have been better! At 40.00 a pitcher, wasted money!

    On a very hot day the only choice was to eat inside. Noise is a factor at Zocalo Especially when seated near a large party. However, service was excellent and we were accommodated earlier than our reservation. The food was good. The guacamole was extremely mild and very bland. Rose

    Food and service were great but due to the heat, we dined indoors. It was very busy therefore very loud. Hard floors and hard ceilings make the sound deafening. Please put in acoustic sound absorbing products on the ceilings.

    Zocalo food and services was good. The noise inside was really bad. Very difficult to have a conversation with fellow diners. Not particularly relaxing. More of a bar/singles scene than enjoyable dining inside the restaurant. Had it not been so hot, we would have moved outdoors. Would consider dining at Zocalo's again when it is cooler and eat on the outdoor patio.

    Zocalos has been a “Go To” restaurant for us for celebrating special occasions and we have never been disappointed…. Until yesterday! We were celebrating birthday with some close friends and family (party of 9). Reservations were done in advance and we had no issues on finding the right time and date. We even got confirmation of our reservation which is always very reassuring. Seating was great and our server was ready take order for drinks and appetizers. The wait staff was very attentive and made sure all drinks and complimentary chips and salsas were flowing to the table promptly. Our appetizers came and main course order was place. Food came in small batches … and then as if all wait staff disappeared. We had to flag random staff members for water and keeping soda refills. We were done with the dinner but no one came to check on our table … again a family member had to flag a random staff member to clean our table and order dessert. All-in-all what started as a great evening ended up being …”never want to come back to this place again” type of experience. We have been to Roseville/Fountains and Folsom locations many times and never disappointed…. So it could be a challenge with Mid-Town location… still something for Zocalos to look into and address if they want continued patronage!

    For a hot day in Sacramento, the air condition inside the restaurant was not working. It was hot and there were flies because they had to open the door. We chose inside seating to avoid the heat and flies, unfortunately we had to deal with both which made the experience less than pleasant.

    The appetizers and main courses were very good. We did order a picture of margaritas but it was pretty watered down, so I would consider skipping this given the prices they charge.

    We meet our friends there for Dinner and had a great time! The food was amazing as always and the Service is always great! Only thing is it's a lil hard yo have a conversation inside the restaurant with the music being so loud, but we moved outside and finished our evening with good company and great food! I must say the food is always consistently Delicious 😋

    While the servers are very NICE, we were without several things we needed for our dining experience. We made a reservation this time since we know they are always busy and couldn't get a table last time we came... the greeter sat us and we were brought waters but they never brought silverware, napkins or chips and salsa. We had to ask for all of them. We ordered quickly after we sat down because we had our two young kids with us and we know time is of the essence. All the food came out in a reasonable amount of time but we never got our drinks. 40 minutes in I finally asked and it was clear that the server forgot to put them in. Which is fine, we all make mistakes. But he did not even so much as apologize, he just kind of brushed it off as if he didn't know what happened. No one ever mentioned it again to us and we were charged normally. The food tasted great and so did our margaritas that ended up being "dessert" since we got them once we were finished with our food. The bussers were always available to flag down as we tried to piece together the things that were missing/needed... They were extremely busy and we totally understand that things happen but the fact they didn't even acknowledge the mistakes or try to make up for them in any way was a disappointing misstep in the overall service experience

    Great spot for a birthday, but it was super loud! Not sure why they had a bass going in the music. I’m not hard of hearing, but I couldn’t hear anyone at my table at 6:30pm on a Wednesday.

    I meet my aunt here for lunch because it’s halfway between us and easy to find from the freeway. But the biggest reason is because the food is delicious. Service is not always the greatest, but not bad, just a little in attentive.
