Zocalo serves tasty, albeit spicy, Mexican-inspired dishes in a clean and comfortable atmosphere. The menu may be limited, but popular items like Quesebirria and chilaquiles rojos, verdes are flavorful and well-seasoned. The restaurant has a cozy, boutique-style vibe similar to a coffee house, with a small seating area that makes it feel intimate. Friendly staff provide quick service, making it a great spot for brunch or breakfast. While prices may be a bit high, the generous portions and delicious food make it worth the cost. Visitors have praised the authentic Mexican flavors, good portions, and reasonable prices, especially for breakfast. The atmosphere is relaxing and family-owned, with a small parking lot nearby that offers affordable parking options. Overall, Zocalo is a recommended stop for those craving Mexican cuisine in the IV/SB area.
