Okay. I've had zamberos quite a few times and let me say it was an Interesting experience. I can't tell if it's the products that are making the food is bad or that people just can't be asked to make it good. I had the quesadillas my first time at zamberos and they were burnt when they came out. I'm saying the whole bottoms side was black and it… Read more
wasn't that enjoyable. I tried it again a few months ago with nachos and the onion and vegetables had an weird old taste, and the chicken was an odd, smooshy texture.... Wasn't great. Just had their burrito and it bursted with no flavour. Tomatoes onion, and smooshy chicken isn't the vibe, like at all. Tortilla was nice, but rice was incredibly dry. Overall, every experience at zamberos was not good, I hope they improve on their flavour and presence of their ingredients, because I can see this becoming better then gyg.

Ordered a bowl at the Mernda Store. Lady serving me only filled it 1/4 of the way. I asked why it wasn’t filled, she said I will have to charge you extra if you want more. I said ok. She then only filled the bowl half way. I asked why is it only filled half way when the same bowl over there is full with that customer. She said the other half is… Read more
usually filled with lettuce. So I paid $19.50 for a half filled bowl. Lady at the counter had no clue or appear to have any customer service.
Went to Seaford SA and ordered a big signature bowl. I was served by a trainee and an older woman who told her to put extra rice and lettuce so the bowl looked more 'full'. When I questioned the very small amount of beans the older woman said they weren't included. Then why are they on the menu? Then I wanted to change the signature salsa to… Read more
another one. Not allowed to. Even tho Colonnades store lets me. So I said I didn't want salsa. So I paid. Then I noticed that I had been charged $1.90 for tomato salsa which I had not received. When I pointed it out the older woman asked me if I wanted tomato salsa. Yes I did. Because I paid for it. It was an unpleasant experience. And the woman told me she is going to report the Colonnades store for 'breaking the rules'. Slow and rude. See the attached photo for the tomato salsa I paid an extra $1.90 for.
Giving even one star is not what their quality of food gone to. I loved to eat it all the time but now if someone says their brand name I get trauma Show details
Bowls barely half full and after three attempts operator still didn’t understand one bowl was to have jalapenos (got none) and all smothered in the sauce. Don’t recommend Shoreline in Tasmania. Show details
Latest follow-ups
Purchased a Zambrero's Brownie with a lunch order and noticed the taste got "funkier" the more I ate. I pulled the remaining portion out of the package to find mould. I lodged a complaint with Zambrero's and spoke to the local Area Manager who didn't seem to believe me. Show details
Follow-up · I don’t think this complaint was taken seriously. I still have tge last remaining portion complete with packaging. Will be submitting it to the local health authority. Packaging was not tampered with & expiry date was 3 months from purchase date.

Mia Traralgon zambrero’s great – Just got a burrito bowl and I’m a celiac so they changed gloves and utensils straight away and was so nice about everything. Love Mexican food. And Mia from zambrero’s in Traralgon was so nice and made sure I got what I needed and didn’t get glutened from the meal. Very happy with the service and Mia’s excellent service and manner as she asked all… Read more
the right questions and answerd everything to make sure I got all important information and no problems with the food.
Fabulous service ,good fresh food – Stopped at southbound Zambreo's had a lovely burrito made by the very friendly Nehal. Friendly ,polite and was an expert on the makings of our meal . Keep up the excellent work Nehal! Show details
Accommodating to Vegans – I adore the bean burrito and appreciate that it can be fully veganised with plant-based cheese and sour cream. The sauces are delicious and customer service has always been above satisfactory.

Ordered 2 vegetarian das capos through Ubereats. It cost me $18 for a soft and hard taco with barely any fillings. There was about a teaspoon of beans with sour cream and barbecue sauce in each. There was no lettuce or salsa. I did not request any removal of fillings. It was like someone started making my order and left it unfinished. This was ordered through Greenacres South Australia. This is a complete ripoff! No I do not recommend. Show details

As a first time customer I ordered the grilled chicken burrito however I had trouble finding the chicken. As much as the other ingredients in the burrito were fresh and tasty I was very disappointed at the minuscule portion of chicken. I ordered a second burrito and found the ammount of chicken was the same. Very disappointed customer. Show details
I would give zero stars if I could. The franchisee of the Lawnton store in the northern suburbs of Brisbane, QLD; [Name Removed], is the epitome of a scumbag! Some of the laundry list of why includes: - abuse of staff via WhatsApp, phone and in person - promotes a culture of 'every man for himself' amongst employees - spreads lies amongst staff… Read more
that creates a 'dobbing' culture - takes advantage of minors with unpaid wages and entitlements e.g. paying staff only for scheduled shift hours, not actual hours worked, not paying correct penalty rates, not paying for 'trials', etc - staff often made to come in early or stay back and don't get paid for the additional hours - work hours were recorded in a hand written notebook, not the official Zambrero's time clock system - unsupervised minors running the store late at night, including a lone 14 year old girl being left to close the store late at night - minors serving alcohol with no other staff over the age of 18 present (has subsequently surrendered his liquor license after being investigated by Gaming and Liquor QLD) - unsafe working conditions (apparently now sorted after being investigated by WorkSafe QLD)
All of this was reported to Zambrero's head office, where their 'People and Culture' manager made a big show about dealing with it promised it would be dealt, all unpaid wages, etc would be resolved and that the affect ed staff would not suffer any consequences as they were the victims.
It just turned into a huge cover-up with everything being swept under the rug and all the affected kids getting no further work and none of them being made whole for their unpaid wages and entitlements.
A disgusting franchisee and a disgusting corporation! Don't give them your business.

The food was great, just because i dont look Caucasian i was told by the staff at this location at mater that they cannot make it a meal, as they dont have any fries(chips) while literally serving them.to other people right in front of my own eyes Show details
Soggy cold food from North Perth store. Could have been straight out of the fridge. Won’t be ordering this trash again. Even the foil wrapped burrito was stone cold. Toasted food so soggy, it just fell to bits trying to pick it up, I had considered trying to reheat but just fell to bits so that wasn’t an option. We traded good money for food that was absolute trash Show details
I have been a regular customer at Zambrero Sunbury with my family almost every weekend, but after our last visit I will not be returning. When my husband briefly used the store toilet before we ordered, a staff member (claiming to be the manager) loudly said: “Some people think this place is a public toilet.” I walked in with my kids and heard… Read more
this offensive comment. Instead of apologising when I questioned her behaviour, she repeated the insult and continued to demean us, not realising I was his wife.
When we asked her to stop, she became even ruder and eventually threw us out of the shop.
This was humiliating and completely unprofessional. No customer should ever be treated this way.
Terrible service at Robina store and staff are very rude and unhelpful and when you ask for your mail to be how you normally like it and someone does it a little bit different they get cranky and angry and say that you’re abusive and rude to them and all you’re asking for was just to have it the way you normally have it don’t go there not a good store and not good staff
first time trying got the chicken kebab with lots of rice and their other stuff will i go back for 17dollars for a bland kebab nope its a wrap u buy from coles or woolies
awful – Me and my partner came into the mandurah store and it was awful. was supposed to open at 10am but doors didn’t open until 10.40am.The workers were just standing in the back talking and not doing things they were supposed to. absolutely disgraceful
Overpriced with the quantity of food – My son ordered the kids combo with just rice & chicken (as that's all he eats). With the amount of rice & chicken they gave us he ate it in two mouthfuls. To add extra was additional $4. Show details

Nope don’t bother – Lismore x the last thing i want to do is leave a bad review but I ordered tacos then saw the guy very carefully add 3/4 of 1 tablespoon of beef on each taco, greenish tomato,cheese lettuce filled to half way in the taco then too much sour cream and then only choice of cream dressings or bbq. No taco sauce means it ain’t a taco as far as I’m concerned I am not a big eater and still hungry after 3 :( Show details
Poor customer service – Coolum Beach, bad costumer service sadly. I nicely approached the team to let them know the vegan sour cream I paid extra for was missing in my burrito. The attendant checked with the manager, who said "it should be in there." I kept eating and returned to show it was still nowhere to be found even at the end of the burrito. They just don't seem to know how to service customers. Show details
Ruth and unprofesional – I was at zambrero on Friday night as have been there before but Friday night would have been the worst the person served me was handling the food with hands I got 3 tacos which were staile fillings were not existing when I asked it was his first day paid in cash took him over 2 minutes to work out the change and some one else come to his rescue … Read more
I did not eat the food as it was disgusting Healt inspectors should have the authority to close places linke this I do recommend for consumers to think twice to go to this please
Mexican food not so good … – Not happy , we are vegans, and we got there like after 1 pm, half food dishes were empty, not much available for vegans. Keep asking if we like a double serving of rice or beans…? Hmmm, never heard that before. Quality we didn’t like it. Cauliflower item was a bit off by taste… $13:90 over priced $$$. Went next door to Oporto and got a vegan bowl.… Read more
Was good. Sorry, should be better task g and more items available. Didn’t like the lunch. Try to get it right …
Fantastic – I had a fantastic experience at North Adelaide . Staff are so good to the customers .Thank you so much you all deserve a pat on the back. And no I don’t work for zambrero Show details
Shithouse – First timer... usually go to Mad Mex or GYG and am never disappointed. Zambrero's took my order at 2pm and advised that my tacos would be delivered within 30 minutes. At 4pm I received a message that my order was on it's way and would arrive by 4:30. 2.5 hours to deliver 2 tacos! Never again! Show details
I wouldn’t even feed it to my dogs!! – Very disappointed no taste bland, stodgy rice no flavour, wrap soggy worst food I’ve had in a long time hate to say but maccas would be better !!!! Show details
Poor customer service and food quality – $1 extra for vegan cheese and vegan sour cream which is reasonable. Ordered 3 tacos for $13.90 only for the bill to be $19.90. Found out that they charge $1+ $1 for a half teaspoon of vegan sour cream and vegan cheese PER TACO. So $6 extra for about 1.5 teaspoons of each. The beans are also advertised as coming with guacamole but the attendant forgot and I had to ask her to add it on. The onions tasted bitter too which made it inedible.
