El Muchacho Alegre

I think this place has listened to the other reviews, because the service was on point. The food was amazing, the Ceviche was fresh, and our meals were both excellent. It was Saturday night so they had a live band, which was pretty awesome. Even before the band they had on festive music. If you're looking for a quiet atmosphere this isn't the place, but it is a fun atmosphere.

I had a reservation for 13 people on February 1st, and the experience was extremely disappointing. Despite the restaurant not being busy (only two tables), service was very poor from the start. No drinks or even water were offered while we waited, and several menu items (like fish tacos and pineapple water) were unavailable. The waitress assigned to our table was friendly, but the service overall was very poor and horrible. When we began ordering, like I said several items were unavailable, including fish tacos, pineapple water, and other dishes.No water still until we asked for it. The food took almost an hour and a half to arrive. When it finally did, it was bland, tasteless,poorly presented, and the portions were very small for the prices charged. To make matters worse, my niece and a

Food: average but pretty affordable Menu is almost entirely seafood, but my shrimp were a bit overcooked. It tasted ok, but if you're a seafood restaurant, the shrimp should be delicious and juicy. Service: inattentive - We got everything we needed, but kind of slow, and I had to go find a server to pay our bill, while all the servers were standing around chatting behind the bar. Vibes: Fun, Spanish music, LED lights and there was a stage. The stage wasn't being used when we were there, but I did feel like maybe coming here at dinner to eat as a restaurant was not the vibe, and maybe it's supposed to be a more of a late night vibe? I'm not sure what time they close because Google and Facebook say two different things. Overall, I think the high and low ratings here are both a bit dramati

It was weird to see the restaurant was almost empty on a Sunday from the moment we got there , No water was Offered or brought to us. After we ordered drinks I had to ask like 4 times for my daughters drink in a lapse of 1 and a half hours. My food arrived without exaggerating 1 hour and 50 minutes later! I was the last one in receiving it , gave two bites ,I lost my appetite and had to ask for it to go. Food was not impressive and very expensive considering the quality, carne asada was just Two small strips of steak and plate was not as big. Even though there were just 3 tables in the restaurant and 3 servers , the services was very poor, waitresses were not paying attention to customers (waitress was nice though). Ambiance was ok .

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE BUSINESS - DO NOT EAT HERE They moved in as a restaurant in a residential neighborhood and then turned into a nightclub that blasts music until the early morning hours. Neighbors have talked to them numerous times but they won't turn down their wall shaking music even after asked politely and police were called. It's not just "loud" it shakes the walls of houses and can be heard down the block They are a nuisance and inconsiderate. I can't wait till they close up shop. If you want good Mexican food, do yourself a favor and skip this place in favor of Tampicos right next door or many of the other considerate restaurants.
