The restaurant was closed when I arrived the valet parking attendant told me they open at 10pm for their clubbing event. So Alegria needs to update their hours accordingly in terms of when they actually open. The restaurant was closed so I couldn't try their food unfortunately.

It was empty, the event we made reservations for was cancelled without notice, and the place smelled of spilled liquor and unclean bathrooms. We went across the street to Sevilla and had a wonderful time, with live music and great food.

We wanted to take my mom out to lunch for her birthday. I’ve passed this place many times and it was right down the street from my church. Everything was great except the music was a little loud, which we weren’t expecting. My dad is 85 so we were a little worried but then my mom started bopping to the songs and my dad was loving the guacamole so it was ok. Overall we had a good time. The service and food were excellent.

Apon arriving the hostess was busy on her phone and did not great us. When we went be seated our party had to assemble the tables. I have eaten here a few times before and the service was much better and attentive then this time. Food was good, the problem was with the service as if it was inconvenient that we were there.

The food was terrible, paid 30 a plate would have thought the food would have been better. The reservation was messed up, was not happy with it. However that part did work out cause the show was not worth the 40.00. It was. 15 min of stopping and swinging of the arms - basically a dance that you saw In The 4 grade at a school assembly. This was supposed to be a date and at the end I felt I fail on picking a location that was going to be fun.

Food and music was good but the service sucked! Drinks were watered down, basically was a cup of juice. It was good Juice though lol. Our waiter partied outside with a couple of other tables. She barely came to check on us just to see if we wanted anything else and she seemed very stand-off ish with us. Like she wasn’t interested in helping us decide what was best or her recommendations on what to order or best drinks to get. We have 4 people in our party w/ a reservation for 5 but the 5th person cancelled last minute. They charged us over $50 for gratuity that clearly stated on the receipt party of 6 or more. When asked about it the waitress stated, “oh I thought you had a party over 6.” We asked her to remove it and she said “oh well it’s for COVID”. I honestly only gave 3 stars for the food. Definitely isn’t a place worth the hassle or the amount of money we spent.
