We went here after our O Street museum tour Monday on President’s Day. The place was not busy and it very clean. We did a happy hour menu and stat by the window. The waitress was great. Drinks were good. Loved the decor. We had empanadas tostones and tacos. They appz were like tapas size.

Sep 2025: Almost there if you try harder. Seated myself at the bar around 5:30 on a Saturday. There were 1-2 employees floating in and out of the bar. Wasn’t greeted. After 5 minutes had to speak up to order a drink and ask for a menu. Had to flag someone down to place the food order. I asked for the enchilada combo of shrimp and shredded beef. The shrimp enchilada was a 10/10. The beef enchilada was just hunks of beef balls and did not taste good, a 3/10. Rice was 5/10. The portion of beans was extremely small, maybe half an ounce. On the picture looks like a fair amount but that is deceiving as it was just a super thin layer spread out. Taste wise 8/10. Of all things at a Mexican joint, don’t cheap out on the beans! I was never asked if I wanted anything else or if I wanted a beer refill. The young girl at the bar was texting on her phone repeatedly. If you come here try using the waiter and maybe you will have better luck then I did. Decor was cool.

Jesus was amazing! The best server. We really enjoyed the happy hour & cannot recommend Jesus enough. He’s such a kind person. And the rest of the alero team was great! Really appreciate the atmosphere.

Walked in to watch the Super Bowl so we just ordered drinks and desserts (a pitcher of Georgia Peach Margaritas, a mango daiquiri mocktail, flan, deep fried ice cream, and churros). The food was so good and the ambience was perfect but the service was BEYOND insane. Our server was Jesus and he brought us chips and salsa, always made sure we had everything we needed, and appeared to materialize any time we needed something from him. It was like he had a sixth sense – he was so kind and fun and took GREAT care of us I would absolutely recommend this restaurant to anyone.
