Alameda Restaurant

If I could give this restraunt 0 stars, I would. Ordered the queso flameado with chorizo and it dissapointed. They brought it out in a regular plate and it cold. Chorizo was also cold. I then had a barbacoa taco and it had no taste. The salsa was good. Probably the only good thing. Had to waive down the waiter for coffee refills. Will not go back. To end it all, ended up getting food poisoning.

The restaurant did not make my order. Made me wait 20 minutes. Then told me they weren't going to make it at all because they didn't have the ingredients. I called at 5:30pm on a week day for a botana for two. I set the pickup time for 6:00pm. This is a good way to make sure your food is ready when you arrive.I arrived at 6:00pm. My food wasn't ready and they told me they were JUST going to start making the food. So I waited inside for them to finish. At 6:15 they told me they the order wasn't being made, that maybe it had been already made and they had "given our order to someone else." I waited 5 minutes more and then they told me they couldn't make the order, because they didn't have fajitas. A Mexican restaurant, that *doesn't* have fajitas. A restaurant where you can place your order and there's no guarantee that you're actually going to get your food.

Very disappointed. Ordered a botana for 4 mixed chicken and fajita. It was definitely not fajita, it was cheap steak cut up in to strips. It was easy to tell because the meat had gristle, and anyone who knows fajita knows it doesn't have gristle.I understand that the price of fajita is outrageous but don't substitute the meat for a different type of meat and say and charge as if it's fajita

This place was very clean from what I saw. The menu has a little bit for everyone (kid too). Was really surprised to see such great prices and was even treated to some chips and dip while waiting for my to-go order. Wifey ate up the chicken flautas and I ordered the carne guisada (both with huge slip of retried beans and rice. Hers came with a generous included serving of guacamole. The lemonade was delicious would have been a bit better with the sweet tea mixed in my opinion. Only paid about $20 for including the little $1.50 tip I like to leave on to-go order.

As a out of Towner from San Antonio I always have my husband take me at least one time every time we come into town. I have yet to find a place in SA that makes these enchiladas. The burger is also a great pick.

My wife and I have eaten here several times mostly for breakfast and the plates are generally good and the service is OK. It's a nice place for a local restaurant in Elsa given other choices.

My husband and I decided to try a new breakfast place today after church. We chose Alameda. We walked in and the restaurant was gorgeous. I immediately loved the decor and the ambience. We ordered coffee to start. The waitress brought us coffee in what looked to be really worn down, cracked, plastic cups. The service ended up being so bad, that I took a picture of the cups at the end. We ordered migas with a side of pancakes and sausage. The migas were basically chips with a little egg sprinkled in. I never complain, but we were hungry and would be driving out of town so I informed the waitress that there wasn't any egg in the migas. Her reply, "soooo???" My husband said forget it, we'll just take the check. She took both plates, so I didn't get a chance to take a picture. We didn't take a second bite, it was that bad. The pancake was delicious. The sausage mediocre. Oh and when she brought me water, there was something white and soft, the size of a penny, floating on top. For what we ordered, it ended up being around $23. We left disappointed and hungry....wish the experience had been different, because I just hate writing a bad review

This place is a nightmare if you're on a timed break. 1 hr 30 min and food still wasn't ready! Just walked off!!! Horrible service

The food was great, but the service was horrible. We got there and it was packed and all the small tables were dirty except for one next to the restroom. We chose to sit on the edge of the long table. The waitress immediately came and told us we could not sit there because that was for big groups. They cleaned a small table and we moved to that one. We got our order and were eating when a group of three came and did the same thing, they sat on the edge of the big table. Mind you, at this point there were other tables available. Not one waitress said a thing. They ordered and were brought their food and nothing. Hmmm....the older man. was their with a younger man, and a young boy. So interesting that the older gentleman was white. How disappointing! We did let the cashier know. Of course, she tried to make the excuse that there were no tables. Of course, there were tables. They just didn't want to say anything to the white guy. How terrible that this business will cater only to people they feel are superior to them and then have alternate rules for everyone else. Also, how sad that they think we are all ignorant and won't notice things like this. Needless to say we won't be returning to their establishment. A business should have some ethics and treat all customers the same!

Worse service ever literally had to ask for everything !! Food looked sloppy lady was rude didn't even say thank you
