Absolutely incredible service - Cesar was an incredible server: taking orders, making the drinks, running the food - and catching the last minute requests and adjustments. He was incredible. Not enough positive feedback could properly articulate his service for our large group! Jose was equally as attentive while we were planning before we arrived to Montgomery and made it so seamless even a quick check in day of the confirm location. The food was killer! We had a little bit of everything: * build your own queso (SO good. A whole meal, really.) * lots of fajitas * tacos * carne asada * chimichangas * and more... All was so good! Kudos to everyone! Definitely recommend. The restaurant itself is such a vibe - building is cute, easy parking. read more

It went out with some friends from school nearby and we wanted authentic Spanish cuisine so we headed over to this restaurant and we were not disappointed. In terms of customer service, our waiter went above and beyond in two different languages and made sure my entire table was well taken care of. The food itself was delicious and there's something about the Salsa that made me use it as a side sauce for the entrée itself and not just the chips They're interior had smaller and larger tables which could accommodate larger parties if need be, but often in the corner, there were folks working from their laptops, enjoying supper All in all, it was a great experience and my group had a lot of fun so I'm glad that we went and would definitely go again when I'm back in town for school read more

I ordered take from this restaurant and it was...lacking. Overall the food was not flavorful and tasted very bland. However, the portion size for the take was huge. I think if the food tasted better I would think it was a great value. I'll give it another shot (maybe it was an off night). read more

La Zona Rosa - Mexican Near Me - Montgomery, Alabama

As a disabled person it started out difficult with no marked handicapped parking and a difficult entrance. It was very dark inside. The staff was great and service was wonderful. The choices were good and varied with some options you don't find everywhere but the chicken was very tough and dry. I found the prices out of line with other restaurants offering similar items. Overall it is not worth for me to go back to. read more

To be honest: It's difficult to order on the menu if you're vegan, gluten-free, and if you have a lot of allergies, like I do But you can work around it if you really want to eat here It's not the most flavorful when you have to do that, but it's testy enough to get the job done in your tummy The guacamole taste good, but you can definitely tell it's not homemade The Jamaica (sorrel/hibiacus) taste good, but it taste like concentrate If you don't have any allergies or food restrictions, I think you'll enjoy it much more Once I had a rude server, but all other times I've come here all of my other servers have been nice read more

La Zona Rosa - Sweet potato fries, vegetable medley, & grilled mushrooms & onions - Mexican Near Me - Montgomery, Alabama

Definitely a hit or miss but for the price the portions are good but it doesn't mean you will actually enjoy your food. I recommend the birria tacos, probably one of the best tacos on the menu. Keep your expectations low and you might get lucky! read more

First time trying out the food and it was okay. The staff was friendly. The taco salad pretty okay. I didn't care for the shell, because it tasted wet instead of hard and crunchy. The Mexican corn was pretty good. The Especial burrito tasted okay. The dough on the burrito was too doughy especially on the ends and not enough filling inside. I didn't care for all that queso on the burrito. Too much of it. Other than that, I did enjoy the chips that you get with the meal. read more

The food was great, free chips and salsa always a good sign, every dish we ordered was good and the service was great they checked on our table often. We sat inside its very well kept and clean theres also seating outside which is actually very nice i Definitely recommend! read more

Food, service and ambiance were all great! We sat outside after arriving during prime dinner time on a Friday with no reservation. I'm still thinking about their salsa which was fresh and delicious. Can't wait to go back! read more

Love the service and it's very quick and fresh. It's the best in town in my opinion. I had many different things and all are so good.

This place was a hit! I highly recommend if you are in Montgomery to check it out! The food was flavorful and the drinks were on point! We tried the Bonita Margarita who's is on the sweet side and it was as beautiful as the menu mentions! The service was great and our waitress answered all our questions! I highly recommend the queso add avocado and pico, the mix and match to create your own with the Elote Loco, pupusa and flaunta! I wasn't a huge fan of the burrito meal I think it was just a taste preference, but everything else was outstanding. read more

La Zona Rosa - Green sauce wasn't as spicy as I first thought. Cheese sauce and salsa were good. Salsa was a thin mix, I will go back. - Mexican Near Me - Montgomery, Alabama

As a local college student, I would often drive past this restaurant on daily errands and study missions to the Starbucks nearby. Eventually, the gravitational pull of Mexican food got the better of me, and so I decided to stop by one night to satisfy my taco cravings. I decided on four tacos to go: two carne asada ($3.00 each), one lengua ($3.50), and one al pastor ($3.25). At first glance, the prices did seem a little hefty for smaller, street-style tacos, but I was hopeful that they would be worth it considering the positive community opinion of this place. Things were off to a good start with the carne asada; it was seasoned well and also very crispy. Unfortunately for me, that's where things fell off the boat. The lengua meat was served in some kind of weird, orange-tinged sauce (see attached photo), and also had a strange aftertaste. Even stranger, the al pastor I was given really wasn't even al pastor; it was some form of tangy, cloying shredded/pulled pork, not the classic spiced, pineapple-marinated meat that many of us know and love. It's a shame because I had high hopes for this place and things seemed so promising at the outset... That said, I'd still say that you'd be justified in coming in to try the carne asada, as that is probably the only thing I wouldn't mind returning for. But if it's pure authenticity and a variety of quality meats that you want, you may want to try your luck elsewhere. read more

La Zona Rosa - Left to right: tacos de asada (2, $3.00 each), al pastor ($3.25), y lengua ($3.50). Solid asada, but can't say the same about the others. - Mexican Near Me - Montgomery, Alabama

I am from San Diego California so my expectations for Mexican food are high!!! A couple of friends and co-workers recommended La Zona Rosa. My friend took me. The ambience is inviting Pub/Bar-ish. Customer service is friendly. I ordered The Guacamole your way, and Tacos: Carne Asada, Carnitas, & Pollo Asado. They were delicious. I will return read more

Omg why didn't I know about this place!? Talk about a "hidden" gem or "IYKYK" type restaurants in Montgomery! 5 stars for the elotes alone! 5 stars for the plantains! 5 stars for the generous portions of sliced avocado! 4 stars for the jamaica! 3 stars for the black bean soup, it taste good but the consistency was off. Took it home to kick it up a notch. 5 stars for the vegetarian fajitas! 4 stars for the shrimp tacos, we know most Mexican restaurants dumb their food down for Americans, but make it spicy. They give you generous portions and the staff is friendly and masked up! Love that. I will be back with my husband. Excited about this place. read more

I'm a huge fan of the Empanadas and the prickly pear margarita. Solid choice for Mexican food. Nice restaurant in terms of the layout and table options. read more

So my wife found this place Googling for a Mexican restaurant before our first session at Family Life's Weekend to Remember marriage retreat. Service was excellent. Our server was fast and attentive. He didn't go AWOL as some servers midway through the meal. The queso and chips were good. The chips were hot and fresh, and the cheese was, well cheesy. My wife said her chicken and shrimp fajitas were good. She took the rest back to the hotel, so that was a positive sign. My ground beef taco wasn't so good. I think Taco Bell is better and definitely my home tacos were superior. My chile poblano was tasty, however. A deep fried, ground beef stuffed poblano pepper over melted cheese. The restaurant was on the dark side, but it was lively and not too loud. read more

Wow!! I mean, look at this meal! Seriously, does it get any better!? I absolutely loved the "Choose 3, 4, or 5 Items" option. Especially as a vegan, I cannot believe there were enough options that I could actually choose 5! My eyes were clearly bigger than my stomach, 3 would have sufficed, but not only was it a good quantity for the price, it was actually good tasting food! In addition to that, we got outside seating on the upstairs balcony, so it made for a really great meal. I only knocked this down one start (really it should be two stars) because we had really awful service. DO NOT get the Margaritas or Daquiris. First, they just taste like a syrup, not a great flavor. But also, my strawberry daiquiri tasted like the syrup had gone old or stale and my server wanted me to keep it and pay for it. He gave us such a hard time getting us a new drink, it really did knock this restaurant down a bit for me. BUT, that was just one guy, and this restaurant is worth it! In fact, my boyfriend went a number of times, and was one of the first places he took me! Despite the bad service, the FOOD is why I kept this at a 4 Star review! read more

La Zona Rosa - Plantains, Guacamole Salad, Rice & Beans, Veggie Tostada, Chips & Salsa, Strawberry Margarita - Mexican Near Me - Montgomery, Alabama

Nice atmosphere, food is okay... doesn't come hot, good if you like cold beans and rice. Hot sauce is like watered down ketchup with a little cilantro. Stick with beer, Margaritas are horrible. But maybe this is what to expect in Alabama. Missing TX! read more

Amazing menu, the ala carte is wonderful. Must have again while here. The waiter was extremely fast and friendly. Plenty of seating space for families. read more

Food and service were great. We walked in with a large party and didn't have any trouble with our orders.

Ever time We go to La Zona Rosa the servers are very friendly and the food is delicious. In addition, the music is pretty good.

Our family are frequent visitors here, and although we may be biased coming from a big city, we love it here. We love the food and service is always great! There is never a long wait time. I would say the salsa is usually very extremely mild, we always order the spicier salsas with our chips. And there are no diaper changing stations or family restrooms. The bathrooms are small and cramped, but always clean and stocked. I would recommend parents to definitely consider that when bringing their little ones. Atmosphere wise, music and decor are authentic to Latino culture, it does bring an ambiance of home, so it's greatly appreciated. Margaritas are amazing and decently priced as well. Overall, very good place, parents just be mindful of the bathroom concerns. read more

I have never in my life had breakfast tacos like this. They are so incredible I almost wept....and then went back for more tacos...

Service and food are excellent. Nice and clean restaurant and restrooms. Best chimichanga I've had in Montgomery.

I came here for a girls night in high hopes of indulging in some authentic Mexican food, upon recommendation from a class mate. When we arrived we were promptly seated and greeted with chips and salsa. Our dining experience only got worse from here. When we put in our drink orders my friend and I both ordered guac for the table. The guac did not arrive until after our meals were delivered and we had to bug our waiter about it. I ordered the burrito and taco combo and what a disappointment it was. It looked like my burrito was covered in canned marinara sauce and the beef in my taco and burrito was overly salty. Let's just say Taco Bell was more authentic then La Zona Rosa. As for my friends, one ordered the el pollo loco and got food poisoning, the other ordered a chili poblano and an avocado, and the other a chimichanga. Maybe we all ordered the wrong things but the food wasn't great. Our waiter was pretty much non existent throughout our visit and my water glass went unfilled for extended periods of time. It seemed like an eternity between when we got our food, when our guac finally came, and when our checks were delivered. Unless I saw something amazing on the menu, I'd be very hesitant to try it again. I'd recommend that you don't waste your time or money by coming here. read more

A good place to pickup food or bring the family for a nice evening dinner. The patrons are sure to accommodate your needs.

I have been here have many times and they usually serve me decent but very over priced food. I really only go back to this place because they're the closest "mexican" food near me nothing special though. But I will not be going back to this establishment. I went in at 8:50 ,admittedly late,but still open enough to place a to go order and I was turned away at the door however I'm not even that upset about that. I was turned away with a smirk and a laugh as I left. The rude treatment is not worth this mid food. Will not be going back. read more

Food is average and service need improvement. Our waiter disappears after serving the food. We have 6 peoples so automatically charges 18% tip. Restaurant charge another 4% if paying with credit card and without notifying this extra charge!! I have VISA and most of the places accept VISA so why another 4% charge? This is first time I encountered a restaurant charge 4% on paying with VISA card. read more

I can honestly say I've never eaten inside but have ordered delivery more than I could count. We have worked our way down the menu every time. Their shredded chicken tinga taco is a MUST and the nachos! They do not skimp on the portions. We absolutely love this place! The fried cheesecake is great as well :) read more

DO NOT EAT THE CHICKEN. Had their chicken tacos catered for my whole high school and we all got food poisoning. IT IS A ABSOLUTE NO GO. Trust me people of the internet. read more

with only one disclaimer... Our waiter was awesome. That's the only good experience after spending $167 for a birthday party of five people. First off the margaritas were absolutely terrible and were way overpriced. A large margarita was $25 and nothing special about the presentation other than an oversize glass that is most of the time used for Coca-Cola. Two margaritas were ordered and both of them were horrible. The food... This is really bringing up the rear. The food was absolutely atrocious and tasted like sauce out of an old can. When the beans and rice were ordered, they tasted pretty much like canned beans and rice out of a pouch. The chicken, shredded, was stuffed inside of the burrito, and it was horrible as well. I cannot overstate. Do not expect anything when you go in there as far as taste goes. This is absolutely the worst recommendation I've ever had to make and today is March 26, 2024. It was just simply the worst experience I've ever had going into a restaurant. There were so many rookie mistakes and I'm thinking the guy on the grill was definitely clueless and did not have taste buds if you want to save yourself a lot of money , do not go to this restaurant read more

We needed a large catering order for an event. We called several locations in the area and decided on La Zona Rosa. Best Decision! Staff was very easy to work with, food was ready at pick up, and absolutely delicious. Everyone commented on the flavor and overall taste of everything. My new favorite for catering as well as dining! read more

I enjoy this place for a quick and flavorful lunch. They have a good combination lunch menu where you can choose 2 or 3 items from a list for a flat cost. I have ordered most items on the menu, but my favorite are the fried sweet plantains. They fill up quickly for lunch, so I'd suggest getting here early. read more

Been to this place several times over the past three or four years and it's one of my favorite Mexican places. Great atmosphere....more of a "date night" Location because it's darker... Food is consistently good and I've never had any real issues with service. Last night was particularly busy. It took a little long to get our final bill, but our waiter had a helluva huge table he was trying to manage. I'd recommend this place any time. Particularly if you're looking for a low lit atmosphere, and not your "typical" brightly lit Mexican restaurant. I had the pollo Tampico and would highly recommend it. My girlfriend had shrimp diabla (chipotle shrimp) and she really enjoyed it as well. read more

This is my first time eating here. I just moved to Montgomery two months ago and this place is about a mile from my house. Service was great. We had taco salads and a chorizo taco, which all tasted good. My frozen strawberry margarita wasn't as good though. I had to ask for a shot of tequila to add to it. read more

Another find thanks to Yelp... More upscale compared to your typical Mexican joint. Dimly lit, nice ambiance, and just a professional presentation inside. Normally most places have 1/4 of a menu dedicated to lunch specials. But this place has the front and back of a menu so there were plenty of options. My wife got the shrimp tacos, I had chicken soft tacos with rice, one daughter had popcorn shrimp and another daughter had the burrito lunch. Everything prepared perfectly and delivered to the table shortly after ordering. Family of 4 for lunch was about $32. Not too terrible. All of the staff (well, except the cashier because she seemed pretty miserable) was professional and friendly. All in all, a great stop for us while traveling. read more

Great food! Great staff! Overall great experience. We will definitely go back for seconds. We sat outside - great relaxing view overseeing the parking lot. Good time to people watch as you wait for your food. We ate the "pupusas" a salvadorian tortilla filled with cheese and beans, yum!! We definitely recommend La Zona Rosa. read more
