Prices reasonable and tastes authentic. Ask for creamy salad dressing on the side if you wish, and take the garnished grilled onions and included BIG hot pepper. It's worth the effort--even if they don't speak the best English, they work hard and do well. As a fellow immigrant, that's the kind of people I respect in America.

ACTUALIZACIÓN 6/6/2024 Tuve un maravilloso almuerzo de carne asada, arroz blanco, frijoles negros y plátanos fritos. ¡DELICIOSO! El almuerzo buffet se vende por libra, así que tienes que tener cuidado con tus manos pesadas... Bien vale el precio de $12,26 por un plato de comida que se te pega a los huesos. ¡Sabe igual que la comida cubana de Miami! ORIGINAL REVIEW I stopped by and had a Cuban Papa Rellena (look it up), it was delicious but a little on the high side in pricing. Chef was a Cuban Lady and she made me feel right at home. Need to go back and eat some real food and not just an appetizer. Has the potential to be very good if it doesn't break your wallet!

Events concluded somewhat early on Saturday and I wanted to make the most of my drive out that way, so I decided to drive a little farther to give Gordo's Way a try. TL;DR -- I'm gonna be making more special trips to Albertville. This restaurant is located on Main Street in Albertville. It's on the corner/end of the street. Street parking is limited but there's a large lot across the street that I took advantage of. They appear to only be open Friday - Sunday so plan accordingly! A few picnic tables are arranged in front of the entrance. The restaurant is small with room for maybe ~25 seats on the inside. You order at the counter. The menu is diverse with a lot of authentic Mexican and Central American dishes. Big focus on birria -- not just tacos, but pizza and ramen too. Service was exceptional! The young woman who greeted me at the counter was so friendly and nice. She immediately caught on it was my first visit and she graciously offered to explain the menu to me. She was exceedingly thorough - more than I truly needed but I didn't mind because she was so sweet - and she knew her stuff! If you're new to this cuisine at all, Gordo's Way would be a great place to explore because the staff will take care of you. They have several containers of aguas frescas, to include cucumber pineapple, horchata, orange pineapple, etc. I knew I wanted one but couldn't pick -- they kindly offered me a sample. The cucumber pineapple was perfect -- delightfully refreshing, not too sweet but not too cucumbery either, and so that was my choice. I ordered two birria tacos with a side of rice and beans to accompany my beverage. This was actually my first time trying birria. I've waited to try it because I wanted to try it somewhere I was confident would do it well -- reviews led me here. I wasn't disappointed. It was delicious: the beef was chewy, savory, succulent, so moist; the onions were crunchy but unobtrusive; the tortilla was thin and crispy; and the consommé for dipping was perfectly umami and surprisingly not insanely messy. The only thing that didn't completely knock my socks off was the rice. It wasn't bad, just kind of standard. The beans were, I think, charro beans -- definitely pintos, not refried. They were smoky and tender. Go out of your way to Gordo's Way -- you will not regret it.

We also tried the Forage Bowl, and they did an excellent job with the oyster mushrooms. The berry tart is a must-try. There was a bit of a wait for dessert, but it was well worth it. It was sweet without being overpowering, and the crust struck the perfect balance between crispy and soft. Next time I would try the outdoor seating! They have a covered deck and then big outdoor area for dogs and kids to play.

I got the Berry Shortcake to-go and it looks extremely appetizing. I wish I found this gem of a place sooner. Despite this bistro closing, hoping that this review helps.

The chips were seasoned well and the salsa was fresh. We had good service, but we could tell our server was new. He was a little slow and we had to repeat ourselves a few times, but he made an effort to do his best job. The menu has a lot of unique options and I had a hard time narrowing down what I wanted to order. I ended up ordering the Gringa Bonita salad, and it was really fresh. The chicken was cooked well and the portion was large. My friend is gluten free and she ordered a quesadilla. Our waiter took her gluten allergy very seriously and checked with the kitchen multiple times to answer her questions and reassure her. We also ordered queso and it was delicious. Overall, we had great experience and the food was delicious!
