We eat here weekly and I've used them for catering several times Local ownership, not a chain. Excellent margaritas, not your typical Mexican restaurant with just burrito, taco, etc. Lots of authentic and creative dishes. read more

Alebrije Mexican Cuisine is such a good go-to spot. The food is super authentic! the brisket, shredded chicken, and carne asada tacos were all incredibly flavorful, and my husband really enjoyed the quality of the Alebrije Steak. What stood out just as much as the food was the service; it's a total team effort where every employee chips in to help if your server is busy. The place is also impressively clean, with the staff constantly mopping and clearing tables as soon as people finish dining. It's rare to find a spot that's this organized and welcoming, but they really nail the details. read more

Alebrije Mexican Cuisine - The Stone! Everything goes into the beautiful tomatillo broth - Mexican Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

We came here with another couple on a Monday evening. It was quiet and we were greeted and sat right away. The menu is available via QR code. We all got a margarita and they can do salt, tajin or sugar rimmed. I got the Serrano margarita and the spice was subtle, but delicious. My friends got a pineapple and mango and they all enjoyed the drinks. They started us with warm chips and salsa. The salsa has a really nice Smokey onion flavor that I enjoyed. I can eat a whole bowl by myself! Hubs and I shared the Alebrije stone for two. We each got a plate of chorizo, rice and beans and the dish was packed with chicken, steak, shrimp, cheese, green onion and cactus. Everything was so tender and I really like the tomatillo sauce. We had plenty leftover to bring home. Overall, nice place to check out. They have some different dishes that I will try next timer! Attentive service and nice drinks! read more

Have had this restaurant on my list since we initially moved to the metro ATL area. We happened to be nearby and decided to come in around 6pm on a Saturday. There was no wait at the time and were able to get seated but shortly after the dinner rush began and folks were having to wait. It's a cozy spot with good service. They have a kid's menu which we ordered from for our 2 year old. Our son loves guacamole but theirs has jalapeño in it so it ended up being a no go. To eat I had the steak tacos and they were tasty and filling. Reminded me of the type of tacos from our time in Mexico. The esquites were also on point. Bonus was I ordered a margarita and they were having an anniversary celebration so my margarita was a 2 for 1. Would come back without hesitation when in the area. read more

The flavors and qualities of meals at Alebrije are FAR above the norm of Mexican restaurants. Distinctive and consistently good. I must confess I'm a chronic "Pick up" and take it home guy, so no personal experience in sit down dining. But what I observe looks inviting, personal, and separate from typical chain decor and atmosphere. I love Mexican food. and Alebrijie is my favorite. read more

Had brisket tacos, guacamole and chicken soup. All were great. Definitely going back.

Alebrije is such a great spot! We come frequently and my in-laws are regulars. The service is always amazing, the food is incredible as well. Everything I've tried here has been delicious. The house & spicy margaritas are our favorite, they're super fresh. I love the open kitchen & we sit on the patio a lot too. Definitely our favorite Mexican restaurant in the area! read more

I hate cilantro with a hefty passion and I had asked for my chicken fajita to come without the lime cilantro seasoning- welp, it came with. BUT, it's one of the only times where I didn't mind enough to send it back or just avoid altogether. The chicken was pounded down thin, making it dense but moist. The tortillas that came with were extremely chewy and warm- delicious!! The salsa verse and guac that came with was just the right amount and seasoning for the fish to come together. I had a couple glasses of wine but my colleague was loving her margaritas! It was definitely one of the better spots we got dinner at while in town for our week long business trip. The decor could use a bit of work but I don't think it's a place meant to impress your first date. read more

Crepas Poblanas - light and tasty surprise. It really is as described, a crepe with chicken and cheese. Even if you aren't too terribly hungry, this hits the spot. The Alebrije Stone - this is great sharing dish even if you get it for one person. There is slight sour taste and the cactus takes away the spice. The whole thing works well. Meats cooked very well and the presentation is pretty impressive. The service is quick and attentive, even if the place is busy and it is ALWAYS busy. Friday night, they had a DJ playing music on the patio, a little loud but you could have a conversation, not recommend for a first date - you'd be yelling at each other. It was a great atmosphere. I can't understate how good the service here is - standing at the bar waiting to get a drink and three different ladies behind the counter asked if i needed anything. not their fault the bartender was slammed but i appreciated them recognizing instead of ignoring. read more

Walked in the door, the owner sat us immediately. Marina was our server. Terrific, crisp service! She was on top of every detail. My wife and I both had the beef fajitas, delicious! Total tax and tip was $53, which included the food and 4 drinks. Quite a deal! Bathrooms super clean. Can't wait to come back! read more

We always enjoy Alebrije! The food and service are both consistent in terms of excellence! Today, we had cheese dip and tacos (steak, brisket, and shrimp). All were delicious! We appreciate the open concept; the food is made to order. The restaurant is always clean and neat. I highly recommend! read more

This is my second time ordering from alebrije mexican cuisine. We order two fish tacos & to shredded chicken tacos with onion, cilantro, and cheese unfortunately we reviewed something else.. Once I called the restaurant and explain to them that we received the wrong order, they were extremely thoughtful and told us we could bring the food back & exchange it for the correct tacos.. The restaurant was extremely clean when we entered, and the waitress was very nice. Next time I will make sure and double check my food before we leave.. however, we were excited to get home and relax and eat our tacos.. This is a great learning experience to always double check your food, no matter what because humans make human mistakes .. Thank you to the alebrije mexican cuisine staff read more

Alebrije Mexican Cuisine - Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Tasty little Mexican spot that comes with some drawbacks. It's a really small restaurant with limited seating. It can get busy at times so you may have a wait. The food is really good, but on my first experience here the kitchen forgot my meal when the rest of my party was served. I waited about 10 mins thinking it was still coming before the waiter came over and realized I didn't have my food. Turns out the kitchen never got my order so I waited while the rest of my party finished their meals. Not really that big of a deal, mistakes happen, but I still paid full price for my meal. That alone will probably not have me come back since there are SO many Mexican restaurants in the area, going to stick to my staples that treat me well! read more

Let me first by saying my husband and I stopped in on a road trip home. We are originally from the Houston area where you can find great Mexican food. The place was clean, service was great and chips/salsa was a good start! We also order the guacamole with jalapeño. It had zero spice but still very good. I ordered a brisket and chicken taco, neither had much flavor at all. My husband didn't have much to say about his soup or shrimp cocktail either. I feel like this place would be great for more of a drinks/ appetizer type night. read more

Mid. Steak was tough, margaritas too sweet, flautas were just rolled tacos. There was an extra meal on our bill and we had to have it corrected. Too expensive for what you get. The ambience was fun and service was decent. read more

I feel bad considering it's family owned but I have to be honest on the food. Service was great, although a little slow from it being lunch rush hour. The rice was okay, and the beans weren't great. I got the " enchiladas tradicional " and the tortillas tasted store bought and cheap. Sauce was non existent and the meat inside was flavorless. Chips/salsa tasted like any typical Mexican restaurant. Same with the cheese dip. I would give it another chance but we'll see. read more

I've been here several times for lunch and stop for dinner with the hubby. Super fresh salads and the food is well prepared and tasty. Not too salty. The ambiance is just ok. Better for lunch than dinner but still was very fresh and tasty. read more

To start, just want to say the customer service is A1. It deserves 10 stars out of 5. Everyone is so wonderful, nice, and accommodating here. As for food, my date got the tacos plate it's like 3 tacos and I thought it came with rice and beans but it did not. He said the shrimp taco was delicious. You can get this with flour or more authentically with corn tortillas with cilantro and onions. The complimentary chips and salsa were nice! I liked it. For my dish, I got the "enchiladas traditional" it comes with 3 corn tortillas wrapping shredded chicken (Piccadillo beef automatically if you don't specify) and the server was nice to honor my request so that I get half ranchero and half mole sauce since I wasn't sure which one would suit my taste better. The mole is a sweeter, "chocolate" or cacao type of based sauce with cinnamon but it's not dessert tasting if that makes sense? This would be a sauce id get less of but still interested to taste again and again. I liked the rachero sauce better it's the traditional tomato/pepper based enchilada sauce. Even though I didn't favor the mole sauce too much I have literally no idea why I'd still get half mole sauce lol. Food here is pretty cheap imo like 10-20$ range. Margaritas by the glass are 11ish$ I didn't see any advertisement for pitchers. All in all, the food isn't to my personal taste but this is solely a me challenge. I wouldn't mind coming back for a salad or something but this isn't a place I'm going to rush to. Thank you to this establishment for such a wonderful experience! read more

Eight minutes away from most places you care about is your oasis of Mexican cuisine with plenty of room to park your scooter. Or splurge and buy something bigger with the money you won't have to spend for a large meal at Alebrije. This was a lunch visit but I have great confidence they're open for dinner as well. Or just rotate tables and continue from lunch to dinner in one fell swoop. This just in: confirmed dinner is an option, or you brunch-type late-risers can grab your breakfast burrito at 11 am. Despite my wife being "done with quinoa", since this was a father-son affair (and well she ain't here is she), I accidentally happily ordered the Salad Bowl #1. I should have been persuaded by the name alone--so exotic! Thanks to a helpful waitress who gave me the pros/cons of #1 vs Steak Alebrije, I decided to throw caution to the wind and order a salad. I think the fact this was "lunch" subliminally influenced against steak. I need to work on my subliminalness since I consider medium rare steak on top of a couple romaine leafs to be "steak salad". But I digress. This was a diverse layered mix of greens, beans, corn, and lots of choices for protein. I of course chose to add...steak. Surely you didn't think I would veer of that path! Three choices of dressing/sauce; I picked the cilantro one. It was fab. I was stuffed, especially after loading up on those tortilla chips pre-game. My son opted for one of the grilled chicken lunch specials. I should have paid attention but I was too busy burying my face in that complex salad I ordered. It was good fun, good food, and I'll look forward to the return trip. Maybe next time I'll order something steak. read more

Quiet restaurant. We were a group of 6 and had such a great time. The owner explained mezcal to us. Had a whole new appreciation for mezcal. I had Alebrije Stone I am still blown away by this experience. So good read more

I went here for dinner tonight. The menu has the specialty items on the right so I asked the waitress would is the best of the far right column. She suggested this one. $18.25 and other similar type items were priced the same. The food came at lightning speed! The beef is thin. You had a choice of corn or flour tortillas. If you run out as they are small they will bring more. The table salsa for chips was also good. It is not that big a place but the dining area had 3 waitresses working, each watching their third of the space. Easy in and out with free parking by the door. Everything was fine!!! read more

I have been going here for a few months and just now getting around to writing a review! Each visit I have had here has been 5-star-worthy! My dad is a picky eater and he even approves! Whether it is lunch or dinner, the food is excellent and the servers are above-and-beyond! I have tried their quesadillas, burritos, special platters, margaritas, and queso. Everything tastes excellent and I love their decor. I actually got the chance to submit a pokestop here too and it got approved! Their mural is a fantastic art piece and now a pokestop on Pokemon Go. read more

We stoped by Alebrije on a sunny afternoon just looking for some yummy tacos for takeout and they didn't disappoint! Everyone was wearing masks, social distancing, and using digital menus. They made us feel very safe. They offer authentic Mexican food, so I wasn't so familiar with some stuff on their menu, but we ended up ordering crepas, and tacos. Crepas Poblanas ($12.50): crepes filled with chicken topped with creamy poblano sauce and cheese with rice. Taco Combo ($8.50): 2 tacos topped with cilantro and onions and choice of rice or beans. The Crepas Poblanas are absolutely amazing!! Best. Thing. Ever. The green sauce was so creamy, and rich. The rice was amazing, and the shredded chicken well seasoned. The tacos were ok. Too small in my opinion, and needed a little more flavor, but not bad. We also had their chips & salsa, and the salsa was incredible. Very chunky. The owner, Mark, was so friendly and explained us the "Alebrije" concept which is so beautiful, he also gave us a sample of their Mezcal and we can't wait to try it on a Marg, very good! ESPAÑOL Pasamos por Alebrije en una tarde soleada solo en busca de deliciosos tacos para llevar y no nos decepcionaron. Todos llevaban máscaras, distanciamiento social y menús digitales. Nos hicieron sentir muy seguros. Ofrecen auténtica comida mexicana, así que no estaba tan familiarizada con algunas cosas de su menú, pero terminamos pidiendo crepas y tacos. Crepas poblanas ($ 12.50):crepas rellenas de pollo cubiertas con salsa cremosa de poblano y queso con arroz. Taco Combo ($ 8.50): 2 tacos cubiertos con cilantro y cebolla y la opción de arroz o frijoles. Las Crepas Poblanas son absolutamente increíbles !! La salsa verde es cremosa y rica. El arroz es increíble y el pollo desmenuzado bien sazonado. Los tacos estaban bien. Demasiado pequeño en mi opinión, y necesitaba un poco más de sabor, pero no están mal. También teníamos sus chips y salsa, y la salsa era increíble. El dueño, Mark, es muy amable y nos explicó el concepto de "Alebrije" que son muy bonitos, también nos dio una muestra de su Mezcal y estamos ansiosos por probarlo en un Margarita, ¡buenísimo! read more

Absolutely delicious fresh flavors! Interesting menu of classic favs and new takes on traditional. Our party had Salad 1, Salad 2 and the Tortitta sandwich with soup. One Texas Margarita, great flavor, made fresh not from a mix, that was mine , espresso flan for dessert. Portions were generous. Service was good. Indoor and small patio with outdoor seating available. A little difficult to hear with ambient noise inside, but very enjoyable atmosphere. read more

Local Mexican spot in Suwanee and could never go wrong with it. I always get the tacos, which never disappoint. My favorites are the steak and Carnita tacos. They are seasoned well, which is a must for a street taco which is minimally dressed with toppings. The ambiance is not flashy at all, and pretty basic looking but it's ok because the drinks and food make up for it. The service is also always on point. read more

Unique menu | Great Service | Good Food My husband found this place on Yelp and we decided to go check it out. The menu isn't like your traditional Mexican restaurant. It does have the traditional dishes but it also have some unique and cool dishes like Beef tips cooked with cactus for example. The interior is casual. The server was very nice and helpful. They served some chips and salsa that I think was free. I ordered one Carne Asada Taco (onions and cilantro, corn tortilla), my husband ordered Puntas Al Mezcal: beef tips cooked with cactus, pasilla peppers, tomatoes, onions and cilantro, and his uncle ordered Enchiladas Tradicionales. My husband didn't like the cactus pieces because it's a bit sour and it's not his flavor profile (he said it was similar to kimchi / pickles - which he doesn't like). Besides the cactus, the sauce was pretty good and it has a heat to it that was just the right amount. My taco was ok, the meat was a bit tough unfortunately but the green sauce that comes with it was very delicious. My husband's uncle loved his food and I tried his chicken and it was very good. We plan to go back there and try some other dishes. The service was great and quick. read more

The service here is TOP NOTCH! Zoey is an amazing server and if I were just basing my visit off her service I would return... but I'm not. I go out to eat for the food that tap dances on my taste buds.... The food here was the exact opposite. I wanted to ask for salt and probably should have but why do I need to season my food when I'm not cooking it?! It wasn't just me. My friend was not happy with her meal either. The plantains were the only item I'd order again and that's not enough to bring me back. YELP-- you failed me... read more

First impressions are everything. At many Mexican places, the first thing you try are the chips and salsa, and they're a pretty good indicator of how things will go. At this place, the salsa was a pretty bland puree. I prefer mine with some chunks of fresh tomatoes and onions, and a little heat. Things improved with $6 margaritas on "Margarita Monday" and some queso adorned with chopped jalapeños. We tried a couple of things; the carne asada tacos and cochinita pibil tacos were delicious! The steak was cooked perfectly and the pork was so flavorful. I really over ate on the Alebrije Stone. This was a combination of chicken, steak, shrimp, cactus and cheese in a sizzling hot stone molcajete. I loved the tomatillo sauce and blend of flavors. It was a little salty, but I enjoyed it until my stomach hurt! In summary, don't let first impressions get in the way, as you might be surprised at what you'll get! read more
