Taqueria Alonzo — Restaurant in Corvallis

The service was the worst that I have ever had! I was server for nine years and we all make mistakes but this was ridiculous. There were six in our party. My sister and her husband were late so the four of us ordered. My oldest daughter ordered the Carnitas tacos. She asked to have the Verde sauce instead of the salsa that they come with. No one noticed that the rest of our party had arrived and we had to get someone's attention. They brought out my food and my daughters but not my husbands. My daughter's tacos did not have the onions or cilantro as advertised. They tried to say it didn't come with it with the Carnitas tacos. We asked for them anyway and she left the table never to return. We had to flag them down because we didn't have silverware to eat with. She brought three sets for six people??? My husband's food came out with my sister and husband's dinner and never brought my daughter's onions and cilantro. I waited for everyone else to get their food to eat, so now mine and my daughter's dinner was cold. I asked another server if we could get her onions and cilantro. I told her what had happened and she threw a frickin fit. She got nasty and said they were busy, rolled her eyes at us, took the plate and threw it on the back counter. My daughter decided she did not want her tacos so her dad gave her some of his food. If you love chips and salsa, then this is the place! If you want warm food and good service, I recommend you try El Palengue on Circle or La Rockita on 9th.

This place has really declined. It used to be one of my favorite places to get tacos in Corvallis but we came here for a dinner and the entire experience was frustrating. We ordered our food and asked for more chips and salsa because there were 6 people. The person who took the order didn't come back with refills and ignored us when we made eye contact and tried to get her back to our table. Half our food was brought to the table with only one set of silverware. We asked for silverware and she only gave us two more sets (for 6 people) after another 10 minutes. My tacos were supposed to have cilantro and onion, per the menu, so i brought it to the attention of the waitress. She said the tacos with carnitas don't come with onion and cilantro. So i asked for the cilantro and onion, which she didn't return with. She sent another girl to bring the rest of the orders for our table and i mentioned it to her. She rolled our eyes, took my plate and told us that she was really busy right now, walked into the kitchen and slammed the plate on the counter. I told them not to bother because i was worried about the quality of my food after her attitude when it was brought back and didn't eat dinner. Horrible service and i won't be returning. too bad because i can find better mexican food elsewhere and therefore have no reason to come back...

I have been bringing my family here for the past several years. Their service has always been outstanding. There food has always been very good. Today I was very disappointed. I ordered menudo. It was not very good. I tried eating it. I just really did not enjoy it. I am 57 years old. I have sent food back at a restaurant one other time in all these years. It agonized me to send it back, but I did. And I did it as gently as possible without undo negativity. I ordered my regular go to Chili Rellno. I got a form of that. More like a uncooked chili in a battered omelet. Bot anything like I have had there many many times. I took two bites of this soggy undercooked concoctions and got up. My waitress asked me how everything was. I told her I had been bring my family here for many years and this was the only time I had ever had any problem. She couldn’t care less. “”18$ please….thank you”. Some how I paid for food I didn’t eat, left hungry and upset. And I feel like the bad guy. That’s...
