Alvarez Mexican Restaurant is a popular spot known for consistently good, authentic Mexican food. Their breakfasts are delicious, especially the papas. The daily lunch specials offer a variety of options, including the best rice and beans. The nachos platter is very filling and convenient. The signature sauce, Mole, is a highlight of their dishes. The restaurant has a great patio, friendly service, and reasonable prices, making it a must-try for Mexican food lovers. Many customers have enjoyed dishes like the garlic shrimp dinner and the combo plate with chicken tostada, beef taco, and chicken flauta, describing them as delicious. The service is generally very good, and the staff is friendly. The interior, however, has become worn and not very clean. Music can be loud, which can make it hard to hear, especially for older guests. The queso and chips are not well-liked, as the chips are stale and the queso is considered icky. The margaritas are from a mix and taste bad. Despite some issues, the nachos are praised for their unique presentation, with toppings added individually on each chip. Overall, Alvarez Mexican Restaurant remains a place with tasty food and friendly service, but the atmosphere and some menu items could use improvement.
