Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

A friend took me there to experience the green chili that she raves about; however, I found the food to be lack luster, not authentic at all, plus way too pricey for the quality! It was also not very clean, and extremely outdated décor. I was surprised! I just want to find a Mom & Pop place that makes home made tortillas and everything else I'm use to in terms of the type of the authentic Mexican food I'm use to in California. I'm still searching!

Alberto's has never been great, the only reason I give them 2 stars is for their 5-star steak and potato breakfast burritos on Friday mornings. Pair that with a cup of hot coffee and your morning is set. Their sign used to read "Hottest Green Chile In Town" and when they came under new management they 'gringo-ed' it to "Chili". Frustrating! Their regular menu is sub-par and white washed. Perfect for the lily-white denizens of Greeley. As for the rest of us, we will have to make our own Mexican food until an actual decent Mexican restaurant comes to town. TL;DR: breakfast burritos on Friday morning, skip the rest
(2)Brianna H.
I love the food there and always have, but the service can sometimes be a little spotty. Service is slow sometimes, but I do love the food. I usually get a burrito when I go and always enjoy it.
(3)Sabrina H.
Just went here for lunch...chips and salsa were delicious and drinks were served promptly. Waitress was nice and polite. The two of us waited 45 minutes to get our food and finally decided to leave. We tried to get someone's attention so we could pay for our drinks, but the wait staff was mia... no bartender...not even the hostess was at the front so we put cash on the table and left. RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!!
(1)Mark M.
Not a fan of the breakfast burritos. Too many taters.. Not enough meat. The Alberto's express is ok ,I've not been inside the restaurant. We used to have someone come around at work to sell them but apparently the health dept had issues with that.
(3)Lori H.
Alberto's is not too bad, not the best Mexican I've had. I was there on a Tuesday and they serve a free Margarita with your entree, SCORE! Plus, they had the mariachi band playing too which added to the atmosphere. I had the crunchy rellenos that weren't very crunchy but they were still good. We started with the guacamole, which was very good. Loved it and I could have eaten another serving. Service was slow, took a bit for water to arrive and then we had to ask for refills. It's more of an americanized Mexican then authentic so don't have too high of expectations.
(3)Tyler T.
Authentic Mexican food. Def hottest green chili in town. Have been going there for years and never have been disappointed. The deluxe burritos are amazing. I love the chicken & rice and steak & potato burrito. The only issue are the prices are out the roof. A large combo comes close to 15$ come on now. My wife comes from a Mexican family and you could feed a family of 10 on 15$. They need to re-evaluate the prices.
(4)P D.
The place was dirty (visual) floor, tables, etc...and the food was horrible. I had a restaurant.com GC and they didn't want to take it. The menu had salsa on it when they handed it to me. Their salsa and chips were mediocre. I ordered something similar to a soft taco and it was so greasy and bland tasting. Would never go back.
(1)Scott S.
Apparently they are under new management and it took over an hour to get our food it it was all incorrect. Instead of saying I'm sorry and get our correct food out ASAP. They said new correct order will be just as long as they have a lot of orders ahead of ours. Shouldn't ours jump the the head of the line as we already waited an hr for the wrong food. Not happy
(1)Jessica B.
We USED to like going to Alberto's. Decent food, super fast service. THAT WAS THEN. We just ate there and they have apparently raised their prices significantly. It just cost us $65+tip for dinner for 4. I don't think it's ever cost us even $40 for the same meals. We wished them good luck on our way out and don't plan to go back. We also bought restaurant.com certificates recently (September) and were told tonight (October) that they no longer accept them. Low quality food, low quality service, expensive. Boo!
(1)David Y.
I love Mexican food and have eaten at a lot of Mexican food places. This place is a whole in the wall. Looks a little run down, Food is over priced for the quality, nachos were not made with real cheese, they use artificial cheese. Chili reneos were small and pre made. Burrito was flavorless. I can say the green chili was ok at it's best. When asked the staff (3 different people)about the table chips & salsa they all said they haven't tried it. Very un-comforting. I would not recommend this place.
(1)Josh B.
It's too bad the service was some of the worst I have experienced in a long time, as the food was pretty good. Speaking as a man who married a beautiful mexican girl for a reason, I know good Mexican food. This was good... but the service was horrible!!! Even the table next to us, who we chatted up with, was terribly dissappointed in the service. Once seated it took forever to be recognized. It then took even longer for drinks, food, refills, dessert menus, and our check. Maybe we are a little sensitive, as we have 2 boys with the attention span of moths, so it becomes a little hectic if wehave to wait for very long. But once it was confirmed by our neighbors, we knew it wasnt just us. Food was great, but we wont go back because we would probably have to celebrate out childrens next 2 birthdays while waiting for our food.
(2)Brian V.
I've been going here for years. I can't say much about the menu because I always get the same meal, chicken enchiladas. They are better here than almost anywhere I've ever had them. Tuesdays are a special treat because you get a free marg with your meal and the mariachis play. Get there early because it's packed and they close early. I think 8.
(4)Alden C.
I love the green chili here! Very hot! I like the chips and salsa too!
(4)Aaron M.
Over priced for the quality of the food. Took a long time. Why should I pay almost $12.00 for something I could get for $6.00.
(2)Brent S.
Good, but not spectacular (and definitely a bit overrated). Alberto's does alot of things right, but misses on several points too. First things first, this isn't really authentic Mexican food. It's basically Americanized across the board, despite offering such Mexican classics as "menudo". That being said, it's quite GOOD for AmeriMex food, but don't go here expecting the fare you probably drooled over in Mexico. Too much cheese. WAY too much cheese. That was the biggest detractor from my enchilada plate. Authentic Mexican food, if it uses any cheese, uses a mild queso fresco or queso blanco, and does so very sparingly... more as a slight enhancement, like one might squeeze lemon over grilled fish. Alberto's drowns their plates in a thick gooey layer of orange cheese; it seemed more like I was digging into a Chicago deep-dish pizza, not an enchilada plate. The "carne asada" plate, ordered by my father, was pushing 1 star if that... paper thin skirt steak grilled to well-done, so dry that even the sauce wasn't helping? Maybe this was a bad night for the grill cook... but be warned that this dish is $12.00 for poorly prepared beef with a few onions, 2 tortillas, and the typical rice and beans. After I managed to locate my enchiladas through the 1/4-inch layer of cheese, they were quite tasty. Alberto's is reknowned for their hot green chili, and rightfully so. Not only is it wonderfully hot, but it tastes great! In addition to this plate, I ordered a tamale on the side and was pleased to sample one of the better I've had, both in flavor and texture. Their guacamole was also very fresh and naturally bright green, indicating that this establishment can recognize a ripe avocado (but not over-ripe which would give it a brown-grey tint). So, if you're in Greeley and you're looking for above-average AmeriMex food, Alberto's fits the bill. If you're looking for more authentic (and better) enchiladas, drive about 10 more blocks to Cisnero's, a true hole-in-the-wall, but that in the BEST context possible.
(3)Sarah A.
I really like this place. It is the only restaurant in town that has decently hot green chile. The portions are huge, so even though most things are over $10 you definitely get your money worth. No complaints about the service at all. The dining room is also pretty clean. There are lots of different and interesting margarita flavors here like cranberry, banana, peach, and melon. I had a peach one last time I was there and it was really good. A bit strong too, just the way I like it.
(4)Cassandra L.
Food sucks except for breakfast burritos which are pretty good... But the kitchen in the west location is so gross don't know if it's worth risking it to eat them
(1)S. S.
Don't eat here unless you want a bad case of the runs. The last 2 times I have eaten here I have gotten sick. One time our food was cold, and the other time our order was completely wrong and when I mentioned something I got told that is what I ordered. I am pretty sure I can remember what I order to eat. Than finally the waitress remembered that it was another tables order and brought our food to us. No apology, or anything. I am officially done with this place and the only reason they are still in business is they are living off of their reputation of when they did have good food and good service which has been a number of years ago.
(1)Scott S.
If I had to pick one restaurant to eat at for the rest of my life, Alberto's would be it. If I had to pick one meal to eat for the rest of my life, a beef and bean burrito, smothered with hot green chili would be it. I don't even live in Colorado. I jumped over here from the Utah side, just to write this review. I eat at Alberto's twice/day when I'm in town, and get it to go by the gallon. Simply put, I could live on the stuff. If the hot green chili isn't enough for you, there's a extra hot that's not on the menu. It's made from habaneros, and will kick your ass, bigtime.
(5)Mike T.
Great breakfast burritos... Not a fan of anything else there. The restaurant out west is bad
(3)Kerry T.
I have tried to enjoy Alberto's off & on for over 10 years. It has issues with the Health Department, repeatedly. It has stiff prices for what they serve. It has always had the most unfriendly, inattentive staff. It serves gringo mexican food. Honestly, GROUND BEEF ??? I will confess: Alberto's has a mighty tasty salsa. There are plenty of other places where I can spend my money AND enjoy the food. My #1 suggestion would be to cross the street & enjoy El Pueblito. This little hole in the wall really knows its seafood but unfortunately also depends on ground beef for many of its tacos/burritos.
(1)Austin W.
After waiting about thirty minuets a server finally came by our table to get our drink order, took another 20 mins to get are food order. The only thing that saves this place is the food is very tasty.
(2)Rachel H.
Tuesday nites in Greeley, CO - a Navajo Taco with half and half green chile, and a (free!) frozen margharita. What more could a homesick Colorado girl ask for? The food here is great - authentic TexMex. :o) The green chile is wonderful, but stick to mild or half & half! The hot, straight, is KILLER HOT! The salsa is also hot, and the house made chips are wonderful! The margaritas are good - I prefer the regular frozen. Strawberry s inconsistent . . . tonight's was too much of the "strawberry" concentrate, and tasted almost turpentine-y. Oook! But the frozen green was excellent. The burrito permutations are endless - bean, beef, chicharrone, with all the trimmin's. Build it to your specs. And do *not* miss the sopapillas . . . hot, fat pillows of bread, 2 to an order, served with squeeze bottles of honey. Each sope is as large as an adult hand, so remember, there's 2 on the plate.
(4)Niki E.
omg I love this place morning breakfast burritos yummmm and the green chili iss soooo amazing. Just thinking about it makes me crave some. Since I moved out of state I cant find anywhere with green chili as good as here. Try a breakfast burrito even if its just for the chili :)
(5)Joshua G.
So this place has been around for decades, I have eaten here a dozen times or so, but I think their prices are too high for what they serve, and it really isn't the best mexican food I have had, my grandmother loves it, I just don't care much for it. A stuffed sopapilla goes for about 10 bucks! The service is very poor also, but one thing it does do, is fill you up, and the chips and salsa are pretty good very hot, this is a family run business, but some of the employees are just that, employees, they could care less about you and your experience.
