This place is disgusting. Stopped by about 30mins after opening on a Sunday. There were several staff members sitting around and there were no customers. The place smelled horrible. I stopped by to use the bathroom and order an appetizer. The bathroom was so filthy I couldn't even use it. It looked like they hadn't cleaned it all since the night before. The smell from the bathroom was spread throughout the restaurant. I would not trust this place at all. I doubt the kitchen is clean. I cannot believe that any employee could sit there and smell that bathroom and not be bothered if they did care about hygiene. There were no customers, somebody could've been cleaning that bathroom. Here are some pictures of one of the bathrooms. I took my food to go to avoid throwing up, then promptly threw it away outside.

Wish I could give zero stars.
I rarely leave reviews, but this experience was truly awful. I called ahead at 8:40 PM and was told the kitchen closed at 9:30 PM. After driving two hours, we arrived before 10:00 PM only to be told the kitchen actually closes past 10 PM, already confusing.
I had placed my order online/text, but when we arrived, they claimed they forgot to put in the order and were out of the exact entrée and dessert we drove all that way for. I had already paid for a Groupon, so I couldn’t just leave. We were hungry and frustrated.
The security guard saw us walk in but stayed on his phone and didn’t greet or direct us. Later, he came inside and asked for our IDs, we told him we weren’t drinking, just eating. Then when we sat on the patio, still annoyed about the food situation, the host brought us a lemonade but forgot the water we requested. The same security guard then loudly asked in front of several people, “Are you drinking water?”, completely unnecessary and embarrassing, especially since I had already said I don’t drink.
To top it off, they brought our food out to-go even though we were dining in. When we told the security guard, he looked annoyed. The host then came out and said, “I thought you wanted it to go since you were driving,” without ever asking us.
It was clear they didn’t want us there. We left hungry, tired, and disappointed, only to realize they messed up our order and forgot our nachos.
Unprofessional, disorganized, and rude. Not worth the time or money. Do not recommend.

This place is very ghetto, security can't control the crowds, the security is fighting amongst themselves, and people are getting hurt.

Fun place to end up dancing.
The restaurant was closed when I arrived the valet parking attendant told me they open at 10pm for their clubbing event. So Alegria needs to update their hours accordingly in terms of when they actually open. The restaurant was closed so I couldn't try their food unfortunately.
The food quality was terrible, the service was ok and the drinks. Very disappointed that the food was not good. The quality went down.
Good music, good vibes.

Unfortunately the food was not very good, the drinks were watered down and the company has false advertisements to draw customers in and pay high prices. There’s a reason this restaurant isn’t very popular and has a low rating. The ‘writing is on the wall’ so to speak, and sadly, the management is simply greedy.

It was empty, the event we made reservations for was cancelled without notice, and the place smelled of spilled liquor and unclean bathrooms. We went across the street to Sevilla and had a wonderful time, with live music and great food.

It was a rainy day, so I decided to catch their Flamenco show on Saturday, which comes with a dinner. The waitress’ recommendation was on point. Their drinks were the right one for the food and ambience.

Maybe my food expectations were too high. Came on a Friday night, the place was dead, quick service was a plus, but would not come back for food.
