The Alamo,,I have been coming here since 2019 when I moved into the area,, temporary. It started with a friend's Mom who brought me here for the "Taco Tuesday Specials". I still recall the day,,the interior reminds me of the state of Texas. It also feels like a film set for a cable show pre-1980's . Unlike the Alamo were ,, singer Ozzy Osbourne is connected to via scandal. This place serves food,,and drink's. Speaking of drinks,, I even tried to apply for a bartending job,, before the COVID 19 shutdown in 2019. I don't think the female manager,, wanted me "? She may have been intimidated,,over my charm🔹😂🔹.I had thought that I would never sing or dance again. We know that all Entertainment 👠👠gypsies,,can never stay away from a Camera, 🎶🎼🎶🔹Microphone or a stage. . There taco's are pretty good,,hard shell. I have also ordered meals for takeout from the window. That faces the parking lot,, entrance. They have really good burritos, burgers and kids meals. This restaurant is very popular with the locals. If you drive by this parking lot,,this place is packed. Especially before the Corona shut down in 2019 and reopening in 2021. They don't skimp on ingredients either,,the staff are nice. If you like to drink booze and beer,,and watch sports this is your place. I included some pictures,, they also have Coca Cola from Mexico. I tried a few bottles months ago. It has such a delicious flavor,,the bottles can be recycled. Anyway,,so when your craving authentic,,home cooked Mexican food. The Alamo doesn't disappoint.

I’ve been eating at Alamo for years. While their food is not the best Mexican food I’ve eaten in restaurants, they are some of the best Mexican food in the area. Their beans and rice are very good. While I typically find myself leaving the beans and rice untouched at most restaurants, as I’d rather get full on tastier things like tacos and tamales, etc, I tend to eat most of them here. Their carnitas are very good, but I tried their cochinita tacos for the first time recently and was thoroughly amazed. The chipotle chicken plate is really good and my usual go to, that is until I tried the cochinita taco. My family usually gets various tacos and tamales and always enjoy it. Their salsa and chips are great, which is usually the sign of a good Mexican restaurant. It’s one of the few places we eat where we never have complaints.

My lunch at Alamo reminded me of growing up in the Midwest, and that's not a good thing. Now, I will say right away that the server was incredibly nice and attentive. Couldn't have asked for anything more. And the habanero salsa I liked quite a bit (no idea if that was made in-house or not). But the chipotle enchiladas... Yikes. I expected a red sauce along the lines of canned chipotles in adobo, or at the very least, a red sauce. The enchiladas arrived covered in a cream-based, almost mayonnaise-like chipotle sauce. Add on top of that cheese and sour cream, and the dish was just so incredibly rich with dairy it barely felt like enchiladas. Maybe I picked a bad dish, but a dish composed like that, in my book, says a lot. With so many amazing Mexican options in Southern California, I won't be hurrying back to The Alamo.

Here visiting friends got in early so I decided to stop for lunch alone. First trip there was around lunch time. Food was good service was good. After meeting with family they tell me about this place I’m like yeah I tried it. It was good let’s go so me and godmother went. HORRIBLE CHOICE. We were waited on by MIGUEL. He approached the table VERY RUDE. LIKE WHAT DO YOU WANT. WHAT KIND NO SUGGESTION NO OFFERING NOTHING. So I ask him is he in a bad mood does he need a minute he rolled his eyes at me. The rest of our visit MIGUEL CONTINUED TO THROW OUT RACIST COMMENTS. LIKE YOU WANNA MARGARITA SHE GONE BUY IT CAUSE YOU HER SLAVE. Yes I’m a black woman and my god mom is Caucasian who gives a damn. We don’t. 35 years of going places with her I HAVE NEVER been treated as poorly as MIGUEL TREATED US BOTH. THE SLAVE, Black jokes, went on so long I lost my appetite and upset my godmother as I told her let’s go she didn’t even get to get her dessert as we both were in tears. Good food MIGUEL SHOULD PRAY HE DOESNT GET THE TREAT HE GAVE TO US ITS HURTFUL. THANKS FOR READING GOD BLESS. FYI BETTER SERVICE AT TO GO WINDOW HAD TO GET MOM WHAT SHE MISSED DUE MIGUEL AND HIS...
