Alfredo's Granada

I think someone was burning the beans!

by Foodlover52 at Citysearch

Drove by many times and saw a crowded parking lot. Having a taste for good Mexican food, we decided to give this place a try. We were seated towards the rear of the restaurant and it seemed a bit smoky, somebody's food must have been burning in the kitchen, maybe the beans. Between the smoke and fumes, it really made it hard to enjoy the meal (very basic food) smelling that through most of the time we were there. We found the menu limited with very few Mexican speciality dishes, offering more of things like the basic tacos and such. Overall, we found Granada rather unimpressive and unsatisfying especially the Sunday brunch. Only a few basic plates to choose from so we will probably not go back again, twice was enough.

• Pros: Cute place
• Cons: Everything else.

Awesome tacos and margaritas!

I love this place. We decided to stop in after simply driving by and I'm so glad we did. They have the best tacos and their margaritas are AWESOME, and really affordable too. The food is not hardcore mexican food, but really, if you're looking for some hardcore authentic stuff, you should just be making that on your own I think!

The food is good, everything is really generously proportioned, and the only drawback is that they can get a little heavy with the red sauce.

But in every respect, this is a very chill, cool place for some good eats and good drinks!

• Pros: GREAT Margaritas
• Cons: way too much paprika/red sauce on some dishes

I have been going for years. It is not authentic but it is good mexican/american food. They also have good margaritas. :)

• Pros: food and service
• Cons: parking
