An excellent dining experience
Saturday, February 02, 2008
I have been going to El Zocalo for nearly 25 years! Yikes! In all that time, it has been an excellent dining experience. Whether I eat in or carry out, the food is excellent: the botanas, quesadillas, and the fajitas and exceptional. Everything on the menu is wonderful, however. And the food is always consistent. The salsa and chips are worth the drive.
There is never a line, never a crowd. Alway friendly service and usually good, too. Unusual for an eatery over decades. And, it is inexpensive. With no alcohol, $20 for two. Even with a couple of drinks $30. Cannot beat that.
I would highly recommend this as the best Mexican restaurant in Detroit; and one of the best overall restaurants.
Pros: Excellent food, plentiful parking, no crowds
Cons: No order ahead for carry out
