Took a risk on a random spot in a town I haven't been to in over 10 years and struck gold…read more Driving from Nashville down to Birmingham and landed in Hartselle right at lunch time. Decided to go Mexican. It's a tiny bit sketchy looking on the outside being in a strip mall front, but Don Alejo has so much character. The inside is beautiful with an intricate floor plan and DIY wood features. Table lights were so pretty with that opaque stained glass look. Tables and booths were clean and had nice style. Staff was fast and nice. I don't care if they make the greatest quesadilla of all time, if their chips and salsa aren't good, it's not a good spot. This place nailed both. They use the thicker, denser chips that I love and the salsa was perfect consistency and had a great flavor. Not too spicy, not too bland. Just right to throw back 50 chips before the food gets out. Prices were insanely cheap. 3.50 for a chicken quesadilla. Tell me the last time you got multiple entrees at a sit down spot and got out for less than 7 dollars! Quesadillas were on the smaller size but I'd gladly pay 3.50 for them. Really good amount of cheese and chicken on them and it tasted great. Good on these guys man. They knocked it out of the park at 1:30 on a Friday afternoon. If I so happen to take another detour to Hartselle, I will be giving them more business

Well let me tell you, my husband Darrell and I had the loveliest evening at Don Alejo's last night…read more The second we walked in, the smell of fresh tortillas and sizzling fajitas just wrapped around us like a warm hug. I ordered the chicken enchiladas -- absolutely divine -- and Darrell got a big ol' plate of carne asada that nearly brought a tear to his eye. Now, our son Jason came along too... he's between jobs right now, bless his heart. But even he couldn't stop raving about the chips and salsa. He even asked for a second basket, which the sweet waitress brought with a smile like it was nothing. The service was friendly, the portions were generous, and the atmosphere made me feel like I was right at home. If you're looking for a good meal, Don Alejo's is the place to be. Darrell's already talking about going back next week, and Jason said it was "fire" -- which, in his language, is a very good thing.

I wanted to try everything on the menu, but finally settled on the Carne Asada burrito. Wow! It was incredible. We've traveled a lot to various parts of California and this burrito was easily as good if not better than any I've had out there (and I didn't have to get on an airplane to get it). It was also very large and quite filling. It came with a Verde sauce that was spicy but not too hot. My wife got the lengua burrito and raved about it, too. This is now going to be a regular stop for us. I can't wait to try some of the other items on the menu, especially some of the breakfast items.

Food brought quickly and appeared hot. Our Server never checked on us and we had no silverware. I tried stopping her and other servers but they would glance and walk on. Finally got one server to stop and he got us silverware. Food was cool at that point. Rice and beans were extremely bland and already cooled. The hot cheese over our chimichangas was already cool and set. The meat in the chimichangas had great flavor. Server never came back to our table except when she brought our check so we both sat there with empty glasses. Asked for to go boxes in hopes of taking it home to heat up and eat. Ended up giving it to the dog and he enjoyed it. We have tried 3 times thinking the third time would be the charm, Not! My positive note is the inside of the restaurant is still absolutely gorgeous!
