March 24 3:49 pm Check 20007 I ordered carne asada “midun rare”, the meat was horrible, no flavor, no salt, no marinade, no love for the food, I had ordered a few times before, they always forget the tortillas, or the salad….The employee at the entrance, I told her they forgot the tortillas, she went to look for them, it took about 8 minutes, how is it possible...not recommended, we know the taste of roast beef, but today it is very bad, the salad had a piece of old brown avocado... today's food is not good!!!

The food was really good, came out pretty quickly, and the waitress we had was very happy to help. I got the chicken and vegetables and the vegetable were fresh and chicken was well seasoned and the quest was delicious.

Good service, nice people and cool lighting throughout the dining area. Food was not that great and expensive. Just bland, standard, run of the mill Mexican food. I'd pick ElVallerta or Hacienda El Ray before coming here again.

Food is okay. One and done, the food is nothing to rave about and those who say it’s really good, I feel sorry for your taste buds. We were a large party and had a lot of different dishes to try. I will say the Service was great!

Taco Salad was fine and Oreo cheesecake was sinful. But look carefully when they bring you the check. Adela's is among a growing list of area restaurants passing the credit card processing fees along to their customers now. The check has a "cash total" and a "card total" that tacks on 3.7%. I bet most people never notice....and btw, the Tip guide showing how much a 16%, 18% or 20% tip would be is calculated based on the HIGHER Card Total so you're paying 3.7% on your tip too!

Great menu. The food was excellent. Fair to say it is my favorite Mexican restaurant now. Reasonable price too. Taco Birra and bed stuffed peppers (chile poblano).

I have had the opportunity to eat here 3 times. After this third time, I questioned whether I genuinely wanted to return. The third time happened to be my Mothers birthday. The food has consistently carried mucho sabor(flavor) in a way that is very unique within this cuisine, which I appreciate. The flavor stands out the most. The ambience carries a colorful essence that I also appreciate. The customer service, unfortunately, I do not. We had the same server upon this third return that we had our second visit. He is friendly, but definitely needs to be supported in strengthening his attentiveness and asking for refills- which would increase the quality of the experience to 5 stars. We were never asked for a refill on our third visit. The front of the house managers are pleasant. My mother also commented when we got home that she didn't really feel genuine vibes when she had her birthday song sang to her, which definitely let me down. I typically choose El Rey because they have excellent customer service, but we have chosen to patron for support. However, this last visit was very sub par.

Mediocre. The robotic food cart is a worthless gimic.
