    I have been a big fan of the Zacalo in Decatur (which sadly has now closed) for a number of years and decided to try it's incarnation in Midtown.

    Sadly my experience was subpar.

    The chulapas were hard, tough and completely inedible.

    The portions were skimpy and eveything was very under seasoned.

    I give it three stars based soley on ...

  • Authentic Mexican Cuisine
    By Stm McQueen, 01/09/07
    My husband just recently took me to Zocalo and I was wowed! I can't go back to the same old americanize mexican restaurants anymore. I have been spoiled. Everything I tried was out of this world. The margaritas are amazing. I like the counter service because you can keep going back for more if you are still hungry! The retro decor is colorful and cool! My 7 year old enjoyed it as well. I'm going back again, and again!

  • Love it!
    By Lenora, 11/04/06
    I used to live in Atl and became addicted to this place! The food is fantastic, not your ordinary "mexican" dishes that most people are used to. Service is great with lots of attention. Great place for lunch, dinner, drinks after work, anytime! I highly recommend it to anyone and go back every time i return to ATL.

  • Unbelievable Mexican Restuarant
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/18/06
    I make sure to eat at Zocalo at least once a week.They take a unique approach to Mexican food that calling it merely a Mexican restaurant it an understatement. If you order guacamole it is made fresh at your table. Tacos are not simply ground beef or chicken, they are made from marinated pork, fish, etc. The cream of pablano soup is one of the most ...

  • This is IT for my taste
    By Tom, 11/08/05
    I live 300 miles away, but I make sure to eat at Zocalo ever time I go to Atlanta. Zocalo takes such a fresh and unique approach to Mexican food that it does it a disservice to simply say it is a Mexican restaurant. I mean so is Taco Bell. If you order guacamole it is made fresh at your table. Tacos are not simply ground beef or chicken, they ...

  • Great place to hang out and eat some good food.
    By Oguzhan, 09/27/05
    I've been a fan of mexican food only since I've started eating a Zocalo's. It's just such a cool place to go and hang out and eat some good food. The service is decent. Prices are reasonable and the location is just great.

  • Fun spot to sip and see....
    By MichaelW, 09/16/05
    This hotspot is located near a busy Midtown intersection with lots of pedestrians and activity. Piedmont Park is on the next block and a short walk. If you like margaritas (by the glass or by the pitcher) this is your spot. The bar and all seating is open-air, yet inside. No walls. You can stand at the bar and watch folks stroll by, or take a seat ...

    Great place to go for AUTHENTIC Mexican good. They also have the best margaritas in town - ask for a Tamarind. You'll only need one!
