Chips and salsa were solid.Food options were decent.Food tasted ok.Service was slow and unpersonable.Drinks were made well.The building was clean and modern.Outdoor seating.

Used to be my favorite Mexican restaurant. Started off with soggy cold tortilla chips even after I asked to replace them (almost as if a glass of water was spilled on them). Food was cold and tasteless. Saddest looking burrito I've ever seen. Really, really disappointing to the extent I'll just go somewhere else and not give a second chance. Wasn't even busy in the least and took almost an hour. I don't like giving negative reviews but this visit was absolute garbage from start to finish.

Have gone to Adelitas as my favorite place for several years. Lately I have seen some bad reviews, so when I was picking my place to go today for Cinco de Mayo, I almost changed.So glad I gave them another chance, everything was delicious, hot and plentiful. Our waiter was attentive and the new bar area looks really nice.

Fast and attentive service. Tasty food. Great value.I had the seafood chimi, with beans and guac. Street tacos are good too.

Amazing food, great service, and they ACTUALLY put alcohol in their margs/drinks unlike many restaurants. Staff was very attentive and patient even when we forgot to order no lime with one of the tequila shots due to someone in our party being allergic. Highly recommend. My first trip of many, I'm sure!

The food was as always amazing!! They seated people every other booth so a bit of social distancing which was nice.

It had been a few months since I last ate at Adelitas. The last time I did, I had street tacos and the tortillas were kind of soggy. Considering the meat on them was very dry, not sure how that happened. Surprisingly, it was the same exact thing this time. The difference was an older and rather sullen waiter, a notification that there was now a 4% convenience fee to use my credit card, a seriously reduced menu, really thick chips and bland, nearly flavorless salsa, and all of the prices had went up.I do not like being charged a convenience fee to use my card. Those fees are a cost of doing business. Given that the food prices increased, I think the 'convenience fee' was a little excessive. If they took checks, that wouldn't even be that big of a deal, but they don't.I do realize food prices have went up and therefore menu prices had to go up and I am ok with that part. The lesser quality of the food is another matter, as is the grumpy old man that served us.Given that I, like most other people, do not carry much in the way of cash, I suspect it is going to be sometime before I bother to eat there again.

Poor service, they took forever to take our order. Only one waiter was nice and actually had a smile on his face.I could hardly chew my meat because it was not well cooked, my rice and beans was cold.

One of my favorite places to dine. A hidden gem. Good food at a good price. Good margaritas. I love the chicken Monterey. Try their potato wedges with an order of queso!

Amazing service and food. Best Mexican in town.
