While the food was hot and served extremely quickly, it was a bit lacking in flavors. I’m no fan of spicy food, preferring mild levels of heat, but Chapala’s food is bland. The chips were fantastic, margaritas tasty, and the meal overall was a delight. The table service will amaze you.

The food good. The server was really nice and helpful. Not certain he usually serves as he wasn’t overly efficient. The building could use a little TLC. It was good, I’d go again. Wouldn’t be my first choice for Mexican food.

We hadn’t been here for awhile because we don’t live in town, so I was excited to get some good food! I was really disappointed and probably won’t be back. Let me start by saying our server was very nice and did a great job. When I went to get what I normally ordered I realized it wasn’t on the menu anymore. No big deal, I ordered fajitas and so did my husband. It did come out quickly, but I wished they would’ve taken there time because the Vegetables we not cooked at all. Also no seasoning really, just some red sauce like tomato sauce with no flavor. The meat was dry too. Just not very good at all. We were really bummed because we were excited to eat there

Food was good, but I’m not sure what it was, but I got really sick shortly after eating, my husband didn’t get as sick. We didn’t share or try eachothers food, but the only thing we did share was the salsa. I ordered the chicken chipotle burrito, my husband had the chorizo egg dish (forgot what it’s called).

The food was good and the waitress was very friendly and gladly gave us our drinks as we emptied the glasses. Both of us were very full when we left. We were going to try the fried ice cream but were too full for it. Will be going back. My first time there. Had the chimichanga.

Excellent service. Food was really good with large portions. They obviously use family recipes and go above and beyond with service and cleanliness.

June 5th at around 8:05 pm I came into the restaurant with a friend. Everyone looked at me. No one said anything. If you know what look like, you know I’m very noticeable. I’m very heavily tattooed. As I said, NO ONE said anything to me. Not a “hi”, or a “just a second” from the woman up front. Other employees even made eye contact. After standing up front quietly and politely for atleast ten minutes I realized they weren’t going to seat me or my friend. I used to recommend everyone check them out. Now I don’t recommend them if you have tattoos or look a little different, bc they will just ignore you in front of the whole restaurant.

We were very impressed with this restaurant tonight. My boyfriend is from Guatemala and I just moved to the US from Mexico a few months ago. It is impossible to find good Mexican food. While Mexican food in the US is NOTHING like the food found in Mexico, it has its own unique flavor.

Went to Waterloo for a weekend getaway, stopped here for lunch with my husband. The service was really good, staff is very friendly. I ordered the Chapala Burrito with shredded beef and my husband had the Chile Colorado (both pictured). Both dishes were so amazing. Wonderful flavors and so filling. Great deals on lunch specials. If we are in the area again we will definitely be returning!
