I also ate at the bar, so had a different service experience.\n\nI stopped into Zocalo with the sole intention of just getting an appetizer with a friend who was visiting - we were hungry and had walked over to East 4th from the Warehouse District in freezing weather. But Greenhouse's prices were too high for our budget, and we were too cold and hungry to turn back immediately, so decided to just get some chips. The entrance is actually in an alley, which was a little strange, but it's pretty well marked. They also have a huge menu posted outside, which was nice.\n\nThe restaurant was pretty full and we were told there'd be a 20 minute wait - but the bar had some seats, so we wandered over and got a margarita and their nachos, which come with guac, salsa, and sour cream dips. I was impressed by their margarita selection, and got their cucumber pepper margarita. It was good, except as always I forgot that I had tequila and all tequila based drinks, soooo ooops. Not their fault though! They offer three sizes - glass (which is on the big side), grande (holy crap - like 2x size), and pitcher. There doesn't REALLY seem to be much of a price saving by ordering bigger though - my glass was $11, and a grande was $21, so I would have maybe saved a dollar if I had wanted two.\n\nAnyway - the nachos. They were pretty good - they weren't as smothered in toppings as I'm used to, but were still good. The guac was really good too - but we ran out of all three dips well before we ran out of chips, which was unfortunate. I hate having to ration my dipping - and we weren't even being excessive with our scooping. \n\nAfter the drink and nachos, we just decided to stay at Zocalo to finish out our dinner, and ordered a chicken quesadilla to split. Our waitress actually brought us someone else's order at first, but then got it right. The quesadilla was pretty standard, nothing to rave or complain about. \n\nThe bartenders changed shifts during our time there, which made it extremely difficult for my friend to order a second drink. I know that turnover can be tricky, but you still should try to take care of your customers! \n\nAnyway, overall, it was a decent time. Will I be back? Maybe - I definitely wouldn't go out of my way to go here, but if I was in the area I'd consider stopping by."^^ . . "1"^^ . . "2013-02-07T00:00:00"^^ .
