The salsa that they make you pay for won't even mix with the cheese dip which means it must be an oil based product. The food itself was ok but very over priced.

Fun Birthday Spot! We came here for my husband's birthday with the family. The restaurant allowed…read moreus to bring our birthday cake in with no issues. They had enough space and tables to fit us all with no issues. I got my usual, tacos de carne asada (steak tacos). They brought my limes and cheese as requested. Food was great. They also give you chips and salsa when you sit, as most Mexican restaurants do. They have really good queso dip! When it came time to sing "Happy Birthday" they came out with the sombrero, instruments, and a free shot of tequila.

It comes with tortillas and all the fixings. It is quite large and I typically take home leftovers after enjoying chips and queso.

Came here last month as they allowed us to play mahjong in their outdoor patio. The food was…read moreabsolutely delicious and the staff was very friendly! The outdoor patio was very cute and separated so we weren't on top of other tables. My friend said the bathroom wasn't that cleanest but I did not personally witness that. It did take a bit to get the check but I will give them grace there as we ordered things spaced out and stayed there pretty long to begin with! Would come again!

This place is pretty decent, but not our favorite Mexican place. The food is good and it's a cute…read morespot, but the portions are kind of small and everything seems pricey. The small house lime margaritas were $13 each. It's the kind of place you don't mind visiting occasionally for something different, but isn't your go-to spot. It is nice to have this place in downtown Elkhorn though.

This is within a few miles of my daughter's place and she was not even aware of it but said it will…read morebe her next go-to. We were welcomed as soon as we walked in. The atmosphere was immediately welcoming and comfortable. We received homemade corn chips, tasty salsa and bean dip, and offered queso. The queso was thinner than I prefer but not a huge deal. I had the Al Pastor quesadilla. First time for me. I took the first bite and knew it will be one of my go-tos. It is plenty big enough as well. I brought 2 pieces home. My daughter had the street tacos and was pleased with hers. The owner came and spoke with us , which is always welcome by me. It tells me that customers are important.

We ordered takeout. We got the beef fajitas for two. Wow they give you a lot of food! We each had…read morethree meals out of this! They told me the beef they use for fajitas is sirloin. It was seasoned fairly well wasn't as tender as I would have liked, but it was still enjoyable! It came with all the fixings which was nice. I enjoyed the flavor of the refried beans, although there were several beans that were not cooked and were very crunchy. Was easy to order with them and only took about 10 minutes to be ready.

This the third time we've had dinner at this location. Every time we drive-by it always seems to be…read morebusy. The atmosphere inside is always very well decorated for the season/occasion. This last visit they had the entire restaurant decorated for Valentine's Day coming up. But, besides the additional decorations the overall vibe is what you would expect for a Mexican restaurant but more. The service has been friendly and fast! The original Margarita is very good and for the price its about 3 servings. The complementary chips & salsa is great and more of a forgotten service nowadays, but great to see that Alegre is still doing it. The homemade tortilla chips are so good so be careful to not fill up on these before the main entrees. Kendra got the Chile Verde which was massive and was enough food for leftovers the next day. And, I had the Ceviche Sampler which is new and definitely worth every penny! It's hard to find restaurants that have ceviche on the menu, but this has been one of my favorites if you love seafood and a repeater for me! If your looking for more of an upscale $$ Mexican restaurant with great food, service and ambiance it's hard to beat El Muchacho Alegre.

Super fun restaurant with great food and drinks! I wish I would've tried something else on the menu…read morebecause I wasn't a big fan of the cantarito I ordered, but the margaritas looked fab on the menu! I've had this restaurant recommended by multiple people and I can say it lives up to the hype. I loved the decor and music playing, the atmosphere was casual and fun. We were sat in a little booth but there are high and low tables and a bar area inside and a patio outside. The patio is shaded, which will be nice in the summer. We had chips and salsa brought to the table, and they were the typical restaurant chips and salsa, nothing special but tasty. I ordered the birria tacos and was so glad I did! They were cheesy, greasy, full of meat, and the consommé was rich and flavorful. The rice was really flavorful and the beans were typical. My husband ordered a cantarito and I thought it sounded good so I ordered one too. They were much bigger than we've had before. They were kind of warm, cherries were added, and it was heavy on the orange juice. I wouldn't order one again, but I would definitely order a margarita. They all sounded so good, and I'd love to try the candy shots! They only came as a set of 4, I wish we could get them individually. Overall, a great experience and looking forward to going back to try more.
