    I've seen this place popping up on my Yelp app for weeks now - so I finally gave in and checked it…read moreout! My girlfriend and I visited Zapatas for a 'romantic' date night, having said that - it's definitely not first date food! ----- Zapatas is a brightly lit family restaurant on Melbourne St. It boasts a large menu of traditional and more western Mexican food, along with a pokey and homey feel. The decor is very old fashioned with a straw ceiling buffering warm reds, yellows and browns; stained glass and pictures of famous Mexican freedom fighter Emiliano Zapata are littered throughout. It feels crowded but in a good way, I've never seen Zapatas quiet, ever. ------ We decided to skip entree's and head straight into the mains, I ordered the Tostada with Beef, GF went with the Chica Enchilada (WHICH INCLUDES A TACO) The Tostada is kind of like a bowl made out of the shell of a spring roll it's deep fried but light and puffy with rice inside, beautiful marinated beef, lettuce, cheese, and salsa, guacamole and sour cream to garnish. Served with a side of Refried beans on old fashioned crockery. The Tostada is rich with flavour so very Moorish with every element combining well. The servings here are huge! The enchilada along side a taco is served again on the old crockery with a side of rice and Refried beans, both were tasty and everything you expect, the flavours live and breathe Ol' Mexico. ------ This is once again a very harsh 4, the food is great it is generously proportioned and very tasty. We waited a little longer than I expected, the staff were friendly but didn't go above and beyond. Lastly the Sangria... Oh! The Sangria, was woeful I love Sangria and there are some beauties in Adelaide, Zapatas definitely need to work on theirs. I would never lie and say we didn't have a wonderful time, alas The price of being a 7 time (IN A ROW) family restaurant of the year is the weight of expectation.

    This is Mexican done right, not 'beans & corn chips 101' like their old once loved competition down…read morethe road. I love this place. I've had the steak, the chicken, enchilada and the salad too... But what keeps me coming back is the nachos. Piled high and packed with punch (not forgetting half price on Wednesday) they make a great starter to share or meal all by themself. The atmosphere has a great vibe to it and you quickly grow fond of the squishyness of some areas. The friendly and accommodating staff have no issues with large groups who want to split the bill, just let them know on booking and they'll have numbers all over the table for you. Margaritas all round to start the night off and a shot of Patron to end, and you're set for a great night out.

    I like a bit of the Tex Mex food, full of rich flavours and at times a good kick of chili heat. So…read moreit was time to try Salsas in Rundle Place Food Court. It was a peak lunch (12:30pm) and the food court was full. I got in the queue to order (the slow one). Like many places there are queues for each register and not necessarily 1st come 1st served. As I said, it was busy. but the food orders came out all over the place. - about 5 ordered after me but got their meal before I did!! Not Good. I ordered a Trio of Tacos (soft ones not the hard ones) Chicken with Fresh Salsa and Guac, Pork with Pineapple Salsa and Beef with Red Cabbage, black bean and Habanero Salsa. Overall the tastes were quite nice and will likely eat from there again but they were not "power packed" like some I have tried elsewhere

    I've been a few times before for their $2 taco Tuesday deal (any taco only $2!! bargain!!) but they…read morehad an even better offer today - FREE chip burritos! The line was quite long but moved really quickly. The wait for the food once they took your order wasn't too bad either - I was very impressed that the staff managed to keep chipper and be friendly to people even though they were getting slammed! My only complaint is that as a vegetarian, the veg mix they have in their burritos is a little odd. It might be my personal taste but I wouldn't normally put zucchini and mushrooms in. The black bean mix is very very tasty though. Their mexicrinkles are the best chips that you'll find - covered in salt and spices, they're delicious! A great place to come and grab something that's not too unhealthy for you. Yes, it's fast food BUT they do seem to be slightly healthier for you than other options.

    A quiet little Mexican place full of Culture with a warm, relaxing atmosphere…read more I enjoyed the culture throughout the restaurant displayed through painted walls of Santa Muerte among other things and little idols scattered about the dining. Although this did not hold my attention for the duration of the 1 hour & 45 minute wait before our meals were served. This is my first time eating at this place so i am not sure if this is a usual occurrence and am happy to give it the benefit of the doubt (hence the 3 stars) However i did notice that others were also experiencing long wait times and it was not all that busy. The meals tasted authentic and were enjoyable if not a little underwhelming. Definitely not the best i have had and were rather small in portion sizes than i have come to expect from other Mexican Restuarants. All in all a fine little place but the service and meals did not scrub up to other competitors out there and this really let it down for me. Perhaps this place is not trying to be more than what it is. It seems to me that it would shine mostly for the true authentic Mexican lovers out there rather than the rest of us casual enjoyers of the Mexican Cuisine.

    Absolutely delicious!!!…read more Had the seafood burrito, chock full of fish and prawns and cheese toasted to perfection. The rice and salad freshens up the dish. Don't ignore this place on a busy road. It's a tranquil setting inside and the staff are super super friendly. Prices are pretty good. Mexican can be very expensive but $17 for a burrito (a very filling main meal) was good value!

    Oh yeah, this is one f*cking awesome food truck!…read more Today I sampled both the southern-style chicken and slaw bun with pickles, onion rings and ranch, as well as the Texas pulled pork and slaw bun with BBQ corn and BB pickles. (both $9) In a word? YUM-AZING. To top it off, they have *cherry* Dr. Pepper in the fridge. These guys literally cannot get any damn better! The truck shows up in various spots around the CBD for lunchtime, so check their FB page for where they're going to be on a given day. They usually announce it the night before, along with the menu items they'll be serving.

    American Diner Food on the road. Need a good serve of…read moreAmerican Diner food? Well this Van is the one for you. The Van may be small but the flavours are not. There's usually only 2 or 3 choices served each time the Van is on the road. You get to choose from some of the following tasty treats: Toasted Rueben, Texas Pulled Pork Roll, Pastrami on Rye, Cajun Prawn Po Boy, Beef Debris Po Boy, Philly Cheese Steak, Southern Fried Chicken Bun or even a Salad and of course the always present Deep Fried Pickles The home made Slaw is an excellent add on the great tasting meats used and even a BBQ Corn Cob that comes with the Pulled Pork Roll adds an extra something. The flavours are just great and at a decent price. To top it all off the owner/staff in the Van are great, going out of their way to remember their regulars. a real nice touch.
