They don't have soft drinks or water cups so you'd need to get a drink from their cooler. I was impressed with them having displayed fresh veggies, it makes eating-out a little more bearable when you're able to see the freshness of your meal. Delicious, the chicken tacos didn't look super seasoned but boy was I surprised! Super flavorful, and I loved that each entree came with grilled onions, jalapeño, 2 salsas (red and an avocado creama), and 2 lime slices! I always stick to the corn tortillas, they're far better than flour, if you're new to this sort of stuff. Only grievance is that my friend found a TWIG in his burrito while eating the second half. He was 75% done with the burrito, and since it wasn't glass, metal, plastic, or body hair, we didn't complain. He was grossed out ... but I just figured it was an honest mess up from either the limes or cilantro. If he started with that half and noticed it earlier in his meal, he probably would've told the staff. I would absolutely return here. Generous portions of meat and very flavorful!!!

I'm very disappointed with my experience at Aldana Mexican Grill in Troy…read more I had a 6:00 p.m. reservation and arrived on time. When I walked in, the host was on the phone. He clearly saw me, walked toward the back to finish his call, and when he returned, he immediately greeted a white woman who had walked in after me. She actually had to tell him that I was there first. He then seated my party, apologized, and said he "didn't see me," although from where I was standing, I find that very difficult to believe. Unfortunately, the service did not improve. Our waiter did not take our food order until approximately 6:45 p.m. Once our food arrived, one of my fish tacos was visibly burnt. I tried several times to get our waiter's attention so I could send it back, and we were repeatedly ignored. He also never returned to check on our table, ask how the food was, or see if we wanted another drink or needed anything else. I eventually tried to get the manager's attention and was also ignored until another waitress noticed and let her know that we had been trying to speak with her. When the manager finally came over, she was very focused on taking the burnt taco back and offering to replace it. At that point, I no longer wanted another taco. I explained that the issue was much bigger than one burnt item--the poor treatment and lack of service had started from the moment we walked through the door. Our waiter mentioned that they were short-staffed. I completely understand that restaurants can have staffing issues, but what made this experience especially troubling was watching customers who arrived after us or around the same time receive timely, attentive service while our table repeatedly struggled to get anyone's attention. If the restaurant were simply overwhelmed, I would have expected to see multiple tables experiencing similar delays. That was not what I observed. I don't make accusations like this lightly, but the pattern of being overlooked, ignored, and treated differently throughout the evening felt microaggressive and racially biased to me. The interaction at the host stand, followed by the noticeably different level of service we received compared with other customers, made my party feel unwelcome. We came to celebrate and enjoy dinner, and instead spent much of the evening trying to get basic service. I hope management takes experiences like this seriously and looks closely at how all guests are acknowledged and treated, because no customer should leave a restaurant feeling as though they were intentionally invisible.

The place is also nice and inviting, so I'll definitely have to come back to try their usual Mexican menu!

The appetizer we split was spinach dip and it was so good however, they could include more crisps as we had to order more for the dip which was an up charge another thing to note (even though I did not get the item) it was refreshing to see that the menu stated the salad dressings were seed oil free which can be make it or break it for some people.

Left in the capable hands of Edith H, our server, we thoroughly enjoyed the beverages, food and overall experience. My cappuccino was perfectly executed - frothy and hot.

My companion declared the Lump Cake Crab Benedict the BEST EVER. NOTE: a 20% Gratuity is automatically added to the bill. Edith was kind enough to encircle the charge when she handed us the check. Just one more wonderful thing about her and the excellent service we received. Parking is complimentary with plenty of spaces just behind the building. Total bill was reasonable, considering the quality of the service and tip worked into the check at just under $70.

We came here specifically for Taco Tuesday! I will first off say that this location is rather…read moredifficult to get to during rush hour. big Beaver gets very backed up and if you miss the driveway you are adding quite a bit of time on to your trip. The parking can be tricky too. All of the parking behind the building are reserved. Even in the parking garage. And if you take a wrong turn you end up in a dead end. With that said, this place was very cute. There were vibrant paintings on the walls. They have a bad area that is fairly well stocked. They offer a variety of beers on draft too. No wine though. They specialize in margaritas (surprise surprise). You can order a flight or just singles. They offer frozen or on the rocks and they have quite a decent selection. They also offer Happy hour until 6 pm. Our server was amazing. He was very polite and explained the menu well. We started with chips, salsa, queso, and corn salsa. All were incredible! They are known for their double decker Tacos. They are a hard shell taco wrapped in a tortilla. I wasn't sure about this but they were FANTASTIC! I ordered the chicken Bacon ranch and the Purple Haze, which is done with brisket. The food was so good that it was well worth the hassle getting there.

My husband and I ordered the pork and chicken tacos with crispy shells (don't remember the exact names), along with the street corn and chips.

There was just too much going on with the ingredients, and the flavors didn't quite come together for us. We've definitely had better tacos elsewhere. That said, the service was quick and our server was attentive throughout the meal, which we appreciated. Overall, the experience wasn't terrible, it just wasn't our taste when it came to the food.
