Sombreros - Thumbs up. - Mexican Near Me - Alexandria, Louisiana

Good service, nice restaurant but the food failed to impress. We consider it a one and done experience.

Love the food and service. Always nice and pleasant to eat and/or pick up food here. Recommend the Carne asada and fajitas!

First time eating here... The salsa came out the service has been great so far... the salsa... you can taste the flavor of rotten tomatoes... I grew up farming so this smell and flavor has stuck with me. Fresh vegetables for the salsa are a must... I asked for a fresh bowl of salsa with fresh tomatoes. They brought out another bowl of salsa again with rotten tomatoes. However overloaded with chilis, jalapeños and cilantro to attempt to mask the rotten tomatoes. The second round of salsa was just as bad as the first. But extremely spicy. I absolutely do not recommend this restaurant on the first impression as they apparently do not have fresh foods.... read more

Marley was on point and the service was great. The seafood queso was good. I ordered the 3 meat fajitas and by far the beef is a must. The seasoning and tenderness of the beef was excellent. A must try for sure. read more

The barbecue is just right, juicy without being raw. The waiter was friendly and very attentive, refilling our drinks very quickly. Enjoyed all the experience every time. read more

We went for lunch before leaving town and while it was good, it was just ok. The salsa had decent flavor but needed to be a little chunkier. It was more of a tomato sauce consistency. The chips were warm and fresh though. I ordered the seafood relleno and it had crawfish and shrimp. The downfall was that it was coated in just this scrambled egg wash. No flour or breading. Just looked like a crepe with a chili inside. I picked it off because it was such a wierd taste. The rice and beans were pretty bland. But the crawfish inside did taste good. It just was that egg I can't get over. My husband ordered the sizzling burrito which is a fajita burrito. It tasted good but needed more meat. Lots of peppers and onions but the meat ratio wasn't well. It is one of those things where it was ok but dont feel the need to go back. read more

Sombreros - Cheese and onion enchiladas. - Mexican Near Me - Alexandria, Louisiana

Service was okay, the waitress was nice but messed up a request twice. The food was BLAND! Rice was simply cooked no additional flavoring, retried beans were bland, queso taste like it came straight out of a can. Everything was bland. The water was good. read more

Always great service! We eat here regularly, and the food is always hot and the staff helpful even if it is not their table. To the comments on bland food, I have never had food here that was not seasoned well, nor have I had dishes that were too seasoned [hot] to eat. I would recommend! read more

Lunch time visit. BF had cheese enchiladas & I had a soft beef taco & cup of tortilla soup. Flour tortilla on my soft taco seemed uncooked, I couldn't eat it. Tortilla soup was a tiny cup & barely warm. Food was one star, service was 3 stars. I'm not from this area but there seem to be several other Mexican restaurants nearby & I wouldn't try here again. $37 lunch, including tip. Don't recommend. read more

First visit in the past 3 years and it was very underwhelming. I ordered the fajita nachos, and got 8 chips circled in a plate with melted shredded cheese on top. The food was very bland! The waitress would check on us but never moved and empty glass or empty chip basket from our table. It all piled up until we left. Very disappointed, it could've been much worse I suppose but definitely will not be back. read more

Sombreros is always a great spot. Friendly service, super quick, and delicious food. Here is the 1/2lite meal with 2 fajita tacos, side of guacamole and steamed vegetables read more

Great consistent food and friendly service. My wife is a frequent flyer and they know her by name.

Terrible food. Been a few times and never finished meal because of taste. Kids didn't even like it. Not good. Nachos were shredded cheese over 8 chips. Salsa was not great. Kids tacos were super greasy. read more

Sombreros - Chicken fajitas. Bland and blah. - Mexican Near Me - Alexandria, Louisiana

The service was amazing and extremely friendly. Our server also made sure we had full beverages at all times, and even sent us home with to go cups. The fajitas were great too! read more

Stick with vegetables, they are yummy. The chips are crisp, and the hand patted burger looked nice my friend had but the others were disappointed. Pico de Gallo had diced tomatoes, onion, jalapeno but no cilantro. Rice was good but cold. The server was very nice and the interior of the restaurant is comfortable. read more

I'm not sure who runs this place, but it is awesome. I eat here every time I pass by. I think the picture says it all. read more

Sombreros - It was combo fajitas... My trusty standby!! - Mexican Near Me - Alexandria, Louisiana

I was pleasantly surprised to see this place opened. I used to go to Cabo Rios. I love mexican food and I enjoyed my meal here. The food had good portions and for the healthy type, you can get a good portion of veggies with your protein also. I ordered the Fajitas Trio. It was great. Plenty of veggies as well as good portions of Chicken, Steak and Shrimp. Service was prompt and everyone was smiling while working. read more

I needed something with just the right amount of sweetness so I used the Waitr app and ordered the Sopapillas. Oh my goodness they were perfection! Delivered still hot and exactly what I needed! https://waitrapp.com/restaurants/6247 read more

Almost no wait time, the male waiter was very nice and understood perfectly our order. Food was great. The table next to me had happy birthday sung to an old lady and it was funny. Only bummer was no locks in two stalls in the women's restroom. read more

First time visit at lunch time. Salsa tasted fresh and they serve a thicker type chip with it and I prefer a light chip. Service was good food was average. Fairly clean restaurant for the most part, but I would try another Mexican restaurant if I am back in Alexandria for lunch in the future read more

I'm honestly not a huge fan of Mexican food, but this place really wowed me! The chips and salsa they bring to your table are always delicious, warm, and clearly fresh! My family got some of their queso as well, and it had the perfect bit of kick to it! I ordered the chicken enchiladas with fries on the side (because hey, I love fries) and even though I didn't like the enchiladas (nothing the restaurant did bad, I just thought I'd try something new and it didn't work out for me), the fries were amazing. Our waitress was amazing! She stayed on top of everything, and clearly had experience with picky eaters. She made sure to ask my baby brother if he wanted everything on the taco salad he ordered (he didn't, but has anxiety about ordering and hates being a bother so probably wouldn't have said anything about that on his own), and was super kind. She also stayed on top of refills the whole time we dined here! The atmosphere was great, I loved the food, and the waitress did amazing! If you're a fan of Tex-Mex cuisine, give this place a chance! read more

$3 margaritas on Wednesdays Food is average but the fajita bowl is a great menu item that is not on the menu read more

We had a late lunch at Sombrero ' s while visiting in Alexandria. There was not a wait for a table, the hostess was cordial as we requested a booth rather than a table. Our waitress lacked interpersonal skills necessary to consider our service pleasant. We are a well spoken group and the girl pretended not to hear our orders. It was a bit odd. We ordered several different items and an appetizer. The chips were a hint stale. Our lunches were below par. The grilled vegetables with the shrimp tacos were limp and flavorless. Shrimp was dried out. Chicken was way overcooked and had zero flavor. We had to ask another waitress for refills on drinks as our introverted waitress disappeared. We won't go back on our next trip. No bueno! read more

The food is hit or miss. Sometimes it's great, sometimes not. The service however is horrible. Every time we go there something happens. This last time.... When our son spilled a drink (tea everywhere) there was the server with our food. He didn't hesitate to start setting stuff on the table flooded with tea while we were panicking to try and clean up. I had to run and find napkins as our server was taking a long time to get some. Granted, servers are busy people, I know, but he was there when it happened. And as my wife rushed to to bathroom to clean and change our son, well, there's no changing table. read more

I stopped in here for a kinda late lunch on a Thursday. The parking lot was packed, we got the last spot, but we're still seated right away. Our waitress was friendly and the food came quick. I ordered the Fiesta Nachos and they were delicious and I would definitely order them again. My in-laws both also enjoyed their entrees and said they would definitely go back. This is a winner. read more

Sombreros is the best Mexican restaurant I have ever been to the food comes out always really quickly and the food I amazing it is always hot and they have amazing service. read more

Service was good. Chips and salsa were good. Meal was terrible. Chicken burrito tasted and had the texture like canned chicken. Maybe it was a fluke but I doubt I'll be back. read more

Well this was my go to place for Mexican food and Drink, but no more. I will not be back and I will tell everyone I know not to ever go there. I went in there to get a premium top shelf Maragrita, well I found out that they use cheap tequila(Suarez ) not Patron or another premium tequila with cheap mix. I requested a top shelf with fresh lime Cointreau no sweet and sour mix. My drink came to me so sweet I could not drink it. When I got my bill they charged me 15 dollars yes I said that right 15 dollars for a nasty poorly made drink! The worst drinks in town!!! Don't go there service sucks and the health dept needs to check out the huge mouse traps read more

If I could give no stars, that's what this restaurant earned. Food was so awful, I sent it back and didn't eat the second attempt. Tasted like it had been defrosted in a microwave. Shrimp had a weird mealy like texture. I should not have paid for my meal. Never going back. Poor poor poor read more

Food was mediocre at best. Service wasn't very good. We asked to sit on the patio and after the initial drink order we were forgotten. We had to ask for drink refills and chip refills. Had to use the restroom before leaving, one of the waitresses was in the restroom with her apron lying on the floor, she then picked her apron up after coming out of the stall, put on her apron and left out without washing her hands. I left out of the restroom following her and she went straight into the front area to start serving again. This was the second time to try this place and will definitely be the LAST! read more

Price-wise this establishment is way over priced. The margaritas were $9.00 and not of the quality you expect from a $9.00 margarita. I was relatively happy with the fajitas I ordered because it was a better quality of meat than your typical fajita beef but there was absolutely no fajita seasoning added!! It was just meat, peppers, and onions thrown on to a skillet. My boyfriend had the seafood chili relleno. It was like mashed mystery meat inside with some crawfish thrown into the mix. Regardless this dish made him get real acquainted with the porcelain God for some hours. Service was fine but will not return. read more

Ask for Dallas, she is a wonderful server! Food is good. Quest blanco is good! Guacamole is fresh! I had enchiladas and my husband had a chalupa...both good! The only negative would be the rest rooms not as clean as expected! read more

Not bad Tex-Mex for being outside of Texas. The margaritas were strong and cheap during happy hours. The Fajitas had great flavor, but cut a little thick. A bit pricey too, but overall a good time. read more

tied for my favorite restaurant. It'd win, hands down, if parking wasn't such a pain. The service is ridiculously fast, especially during lunch. We're talking maybe 7 minutes max for your order to arrive, even when it is busy. Food is hot, temperature wise, and comes out quick. Their carne asada platter rivals "Surf Taco" in southern california. Burritos are good, too. None of my family ever complains or doesn't clean their plates, here! Prices range from $10 a plate to $25 a plate, but the quality of food is the best in town as far as mexican restaurants go. Be aware that the chuck-e-cheese next door says they'll tow your car if you're not a customer, so try to go earlier in the evening if you can, to find parking easier. Definitely a good carpool location. Serves alcohol, beer and spirits and margaritas. read more

Friendly and attentive bartender. Had the fajita nachos were ok but hey I am from The ATX. Dont waste time with chips and salsa. Chips tasted like tale hill country brand from the HEB and salsa like chunky ketsup (very Sweet). read more

Great steak fajitas! The meat is so tender and juicy. I also like that the onions and peppers are in big pieces.

OK Texmex, nothing special. Our waitress came by to take our order, after we received our drinks we didn't see her again. Had to get another waiter to find her so we could get a glass of water. Next time we want Mexican we won't go there read more
