Reviews for Alebrijes Kitchen in Seattle, WA
I rely on Google maps reviews to make decisions about where to dine out. I am really surprised that this place is getting 5 star... reviews on Google Maps. The food I had was really bad. I don\'t like to give bad reviews, but this place is not as good as theother 5 star reviewers suggest.\n* The salsa tastes like watered down sour cream with watered down tomato puree with a lot of cayenne or other pepper. It leave your mouth tingly, but that is it. I do not think I have ever had worse \"salsa sauce\" evenTaco Bell has better salsa. ????\n* The house margarita tasted mostly like bottled \"sour mix\" that you can get cheap atrestaurant supply stores. Not worth the $12 price! Where is the tequila?????\n* The guacamole tasted like lemon juice or citruspowder. It was served really cold, like they just pulled it out of the restaurant supply store premade mix and served it with atopping of chopped underripe tomatoes. The tomatos were so underripe the tomatos had no flavor and are white inside. Not worththe price! ????\n* The pork enchiladas meat was really bland and so overcooked that it lacked moisture. The other problem wasthat the meals at our table came out 15 apart. The waitress kept asking the kitchen for our enchilada, so I think the kitchenjust through the pork on the plate microwaved the whole plate rather than preparing it regularly. It was served so hot that itwas inedible. We had it put in a to-go box and it was still too hot to eat when when we left the restaurant.????\n*The waitservice was well intentioned, but really poorly executed.\nNothing came out in order. We ordered drinks and appetizers and 15minutes later, no food or cocktails had arrived, but the waitress came by and asked for our main course orders. The waitresskept coming by after that and suggesting our apps and drinks were coming which was very awkward. It was not a good feeling. Ifelt bad for the waitress, but, this is not how I want to spend my evening.\n* The main course meals cam Read more
I had no exception at all before coming here but it literally blew off my mind, every dish is amazing, starting from the... complimentary nachos! I strongly recommend the shrimp appetizer, also the entree with crab ( I?m bad in Spanish, cant memorizethe name), the best Mexican seafood in town! Read more
I went to this place on a date the other night and it was fantastic! The place is cute and cozy with great ambiance. The food... was amazing and well priced. The tamarind margaritas were dangerously smooth. The service was excellent. Highly recommend andI?ll definitely be back! Read more
Great local spot that feels family run. Loved the atmosphere and the food was incredible. Coming from Southern CA, this was the... best Mexican food we?ve had in Seattle!! Got the pork enchiladas rojo and the chipotle shrimp tacos. They also have a greathouse marg and sangria. Excited to come back and try more of the menu. Read more
Loved the wood stove! We?ve needed food like this in Greenwood for ages. Lovely people working there.
This place is AMAZING! Great service and the food was incredible.
This was possibly the best veggie quesadilla of my life. It was stuffed full of grilled mushrooms, spinach, and broccoli. They... had all really been grilled! The broccoli was charred, the flavors were rich, and they all stayed a perfect consistency anddidn\'t get the tortilla soggy. Beans on the side were fine, nothing special. The chips and salsa were stellar. I\'ve never hadsalsa like this, it was something like a pureed pico de gallo, tasted super fresh.\n\nService was great, decor and lighting wassuper cozy, prices were reasonable, and I don\'t have to trek down to Market Street to get good Mexican food anymore!

We have been so excited to try Albrijes, and it didn?t disappoint! The salsa served with the chips is so fresh and flavorful. My... shrimp tacos were absolutely delicious, especially with the fresh slaw and guac. My only very minor complaint is that the shrimpwas so juicy that the tortillas became a little delicate and messy - maybe two tortillas per taco would?ve worked better.\n\nTheatmosphere is cozy, bright, and tasteful, and our server was friendly. Food came very fast. We will be back! Read more
