Visited Montezuma's at Glenelg two weeks ago for lunch - so disappointed. As the Mexican restaurant on Moseley Square was closed for renovations - thought we would try Montezuma's again. Tried this restaurant about two years ago for dinner and the food was very uninspiring and tasteless - not at all Mexican. Thought it must have improved - no, it... More

Went with the wife and kids on a saturday night, restaurant was half full & the staff were welcoming & friendly. Staff only serve food, you have to go up to the bar to get your drinks & if staff are serving meals you can wait a while. Food is old school type mexican, a dozen different ways to serve... More

I am from California and was excited to find a Mexican restaurant in Adelaide, when I first moved here a few years ago. None of the Mexican restaurants in Adelaide have been fantastic, but this is by far- hands down- the worst I have ever experienced. And I have had Mexican food in the USA, Australia, Vietnam, and Mexico itself.... More

Have been to Montezuma's at both Glenelg and Hawthorn. This franchise offers very good value for money and the menu has something to suit all family members. The drinks are reasonably priced too. A favourite regular for us. More

We have been dining there for over 9 years. We both order the same dish time and time again. The food never varies, is always served hot, the staff are first class and the pricing is in the mid bracket for a good main course. It is self serve for alcohol and the pricing on the wine is fair and... More

This place is always full in holiday season so it's hard to get a table. Food is OK, all the Mexican standards, sangria was tasty. Not the place to linger, get in and eat then move on so the next group can use your table! More

Went here a couple of years ago and thoroughly enjoyed the occasion.. Sorry I can't say the same this time! Food was not presented properly, over cooked, over priced for what other restaurants offer! Drinks weren't too bad!! Desserts were OK More
