This was our second time visiting Zocalo and they did not disappoint once again! We came in @ 8:30 pm on a Saturday night night and the restaurant was packed.. decent sized dining area and bar area made for no waiting on a table though. Waiter was very attentive and food presentation was lovely. Everything tasted fresh and authentic just like our last visit. We will definitely be back when in Wilmington again.

This is the best Mexican food I have ever gone to near me! The service is great and fast. One thing I love is that they kept the food quality since the beginning. I have been dinning there for 3 years, I still love the quality and flavor of the food. The food is like a gourmet home Mexican food. The place is clean, sophisticated and cozy. The music selection is also great! The attention from the waiters is amazing, the attention was impeccable. They also have an outdoor and indoor space, convenient for those who like dining outside. Very clean. I would recommend this place for anyone who wants to try true authentic Latin food.
