First time visiting here and maybe it's just my latin roots but the food & drinks here were okay, it just didn't give me a wow factor and it also seemed like the alcohol had little to none! Our waiter Kevin, was super nice and friendly and would check up on us regularly so real great customer service. The ambiance of the place is decently decorated but it kind of reminds me of a lunch cafeteria with all the tables being so close together. Aside from the food and drinks being eh, I highly doubt I would come back again. :/

It was a delight to visit Alma with my boyfriend. The staff was nice, the taco salad was delicious and the drinks were nice and strong! What a way to end a work day!

First time impression. The food was hot and came out fast. We ordered 2 dishes and everything looked fine. The service was fast as well, no complaints. The actual food is okay, I would not say it wowed me or stood out. Average dishes on the menu you find elsewhere. Note that there is only 1 stall of men/women's restroom so you will have to be patient and wait.

I came at 9:30 pm and find out I was not able to dine in the restaurant had plenty of customers and I realize they not leaving before the closing time. I was working far away from home and hungry how come I will fix the garnish and eat it in the car? You can make it exceptions sometimes

Really delicious food with wonderful flavor!This place has a cozy vibe with great seating options inside or on their large patio. The staff is very friendly, which is always appreciated. Their collection of menu items to choose from are all delicious - I especially recommend the stuffed avocado with chicken. It was cooked to perfection, and the flavors were exceptional together.This location is wheelchair accessible, though the entrance to the restroom area is a bit strange.Wheelchair accessibility: There is accessible parking spaces near the front door by the patio, and the dining area and bathrooms are wheelchair accessible.

We had a goodbye luncheon here for a dear friend and ate on the patio. The weather and the service and the food was perfect. Chips were thin and crisp and fresh and our appy queso was yummy and a good size for the price. I ordered a combo plate that had a beef fajita taco carbon. It was delicious but i was surprised the meat was cut fine, like street taco style and not the strips. But it came with a foil wrap on half of it which made it easy to eat. Enchiladas are always good but their rice is very yummy and authentic.

My friends and I come here regularly for drinks and great food. However, this evening was different, I met up with a friend here who wanted dinner (I had just had dinner elsewhere) and decided I would just get a drink. When I went to order a second margarita I was questioned by the waiter if I was driving and that I hadn’t eaten enough to order a second drink.. it was insanely rude and insulting, especially considering there was a table next to us heavily wasted, even knocking a margarita glass to the floor and shattering it. My friend and I were in disbelief I was the one being questioned out of everyone else there. won’t come back.

Great local spot with authentic flavor. I have been coming here for 10+ years and the place has gotten nicer but most importantly the food quality has gotten better. 10/10 recommend.

Personally, I think this place is way overpriced for what you get. Whilst the carnitas tacos were tasty, I prefer mine on a corn tortilla with raw onions & cilantro. This place serves them on flour with grilled onion. Not a fan. However, their green sauce is the bomb with a significant kick.

I’m giving a 2 star because the service was good. Salsa was not good. I order a torta and they brought me a hamburger bun not torta bread with a little bit of fajita meat. This is mot Mexican food. If you want real Mexican tortas don't come here!
