    Tortilla chips and pacifico beer
    Marl G.

    This place was a big NO to me. The place is filled with your typical Mexican decor and murals and big screen taste at the bar area. Music was loud and I could barely have a conversation with my husband. We were served tortilla chips and salsa as we waited for our order, they were nothing special. We had a couple of beers, hubbs had Modelo and I had a Pacifico which goes really good with Mexican food. My husband had the taco plate which he said was just ok, it needed salt. I was curious to try a vegetarian dish so I ordered the stuffed zucchini. The presentation was amusing, it had tons of radish and orange slices with a little Mexican flag, but unfortunately i don't care as much for what it looks like i care about tadte. It was supposed to have grilled veggies, but instead it just had boiled carrots and potatoes with shredded American cheese over it. It was absolutely not what I was expecting and was tasteless. In the very least I can say that the servers and bartenders are friendly. But as far as food goes I just don't see how all these other yelpers gave it such great ratings, maybe they had one too many margaritas?!

    This place is great. Authentic Mexican food, drinks and atmosphere. I sat at the bar and the bartenders and regulars were all very nice to me. Close to the highway, so if you're ever passing through this is definitely the spot!

    The festive atmosphere provides an upbeat aspect when walking in. Our server was attentive and pleasant. She provided incredible suggestions from the menu. The portions are huge for the value. We enjoyed every element of this visit. We recommend this restaurant to townies or anyone visiting.

    Recently paid our 4th visit to Valeria's, this time for a birthday celebration. As in the past,…read morefood was very good (with exception of the disappointingly small Oysters in the appetizer). Service was, as usual, slow - bread showed up 5 minutes after being seated, server after 10, drinks took almost another 10 minutes to arrive. Major complaint was with the bar (this time) I ordered a Manhattan on the rocks ($11.95 - house liquor). Server arrived with shaker and glass as for up. Corrected her and she returned with drink in rocks glass with the consistency of a "slushy". Apparently bartender just emptied the shaker over more ice. Had it replaced as "too weak", new one was equally weak as they use some sort of "pitted" ice clumps rather than clear cubes. Spouse's dry Martini up ($9.95 - Absolute) was heavy on vermouth, and second round shaker did not fill the glass (remade without asking), the replacement arrived already in a glass and seemed weak. House wine by the glass ($8) seemed to be a 4 oz. pour rather than the traditional 6 oz. Drinks are nowhere near the quality the prices would suggest. Also from ordering to drink arrival was 10 to 15 minutes. Coupled with the lag between clearing one course and delivering the next (15+ minutes), there were long gaps with no food or drink on the table. At one point, the manager asked if we needed anything (like food?) With the house less than 1/2 full, and lot's of staff on hand, there seemed to be a problem "keeping up". They have the food part knocked, now, if Valeria can restore the bar to it's previous "standards", and make its wait staff more efficient, this could be a 5 star establishment. Added: In looking at some of the other ratings, I should point out that, at the next table, there was a Mom and 3 boys (early teens). Boys wearing baggy cargo shorts, tank tops, and untied sneakers. Other diners wore everything from jeans and short shorts to jackets and dresses. There is no dress code, and given the décor, this could cost them an extra star from those that care.

    Valeria's is now Hacienda! They have good Mexican food and great service!read more
