Everything here was incredible! The waiter was awesome! The tacos were so delicious, and the decor and atmosphere was perfect! Not beings from the US or Mexico I wanted some authentic Mexican food and I feel like this restaurant was pretty authentic! I want to already go back and try something else and I certainly recommend it to everyone!

Great Mexican food. I had the Sopa de Mariscos which is Seafood Soup. Very tasty. Definitely recommend Adelitas for a solid and delicious meal.

Adelitas is a very fun Mexican adventure! We went as a party of 2 on a Saturday night right around 5pm and, while it was busy, there was no wait and we were seated right away. The complimentary chips and salsa to lead off the meal were perfect with just the right amount of spice. I ordered the loco burrito and it was massive both in size and flavor. Our food came out within minutes, which I found impressive considering how busy it was. No dessert for us - maybe next time! Caesar was our waiter and was very attentive and helpful throughout our stay. We loved the decor and atmosphere. I especially loved the artwork and lighting. It's a little loud inside but I am not taking that away from my rating seeing as we were there at peak hours. We can't wait to go back!

I can't say enough great things about our visits to this restaurant. Each time we have had great servers and great food. I recommend this place to every and anyone. I always see different racial backgrounds come here. They all enjoy the food and have great things to say. And I must say if you go and have the Male server Jomar you won't be disappointed he is great. But then the others were good as well. I have to say Birria tacos that have corn tortillas I get all the time, my wife gets shredded chicken quesadilla but they have bear battered fries great!!. Also just tried Birria style quesadilla and also was great if you don't like corn tortillas. Give them a try!!!!! Sorry took picture after started eating.

We love Adelita’s! The free chips and salsa are delish and one of our favorite parts of coming here! We always get the big molcajete! You can add extra meats to it and rice and bean plates and feed a family of four for a decent price! Everything always tastes so good from this restaurant, I hope it stays that way! I would say the only negative experience we ever had was one particular server who just never came back to our table. We look past it, it’s a great restaurant. If we ever see this one waitress there we just make sure to tell her everything we want at first just in case she never comes back to check on us throughout the meal.😆

This is by far the best Mexican food that I've had in upstate New York. The al pastor was excellent and you can really judge a good Mexican restaurant by its al pastor in my humble opinion Also great salsa Also great service Two thumbs up

5 stars all the way around!! This is the best Mexican food I’ve had in this area! The ingredients are fresh, everything was cooked to perfection and the service was outstanding. The chips were fresh and not stale like most. It’s also beautiful and clean on the inside. If I could rate it higher than 5 stars I would! My whole family loved it.

We went here to have lunch while our Tesla was charging and we were surprised with the quality of food and service. Very delicious Mexican food, huge menu, lots to choose from. I really liked how they serve chips warm and salsa for dipping while you what for your food (didn’t see anywhere before). Tortilla soup with shrimp was to die for. Everything we ordered was very delicious. Our server Christopher was amazing! Very nice and helpful, he made the whole experience even more enjoyable.

If you're someone who believes nachos are all about lots of gooey melted cheese, definitely DON'T order nachos at Adelita's! I like this place, but the nachos were a big disappointment. Lots of stuff on them -- just not much cheese.

Food is delicious! Service is great! Atmosphere could be better. They have the HLN channel on TVs and I look over with my young daughter and there is a graphic/violent rape scence playing out on the TV.... Wildly inappropriate to have on. Maybe be mindful of what is broadcasting on your TVs.

Little work group get together for lunch today. Wasn’t busy at all for a Friday (1:00pm) . We were seated right away and immediately our table was served a basket of tortilla chips and salsa. Our server then came over right away with waters and gave us a few minutes to figure out our drink orders. The margaritas were huge! And super delicious . After another few minutes to look at the menu we placed our order. In less than 15 minutes our food came out hot and fresh. Food was pretty good. I opted for a lunch special huevos rancheros as it aligned with my diet. My coworker finished her entire plate of nachos which she loved. Our server was very attentive. Me and my coworkers are in the food service industry so it was refreshing to have a nice experience . Good atmosphere , very clean.

The Birria Tacos were delicious! Went for dinner with friends on a Tuesday evening and were seated right away. Our server was quick and efficient, though not super knowledgeable about the menu. Overall I would recommend Adelita’s for affordable Mexican fare!

There were hardly any vegetarian options and none vegan ones. We ordered Street corn and a burrito 🌯. The corn was pretty good but the burrito lacked flavor. The complimentary salsa and chips was very nice 💯

The positive: great atmosphere, the chimichanga was delicious. The just okay: birria tacos were decent The negative: Waitress did not offer napkins or come back to check on us. Lukewarm attitude and delays stopping at our table. Tres leches - grainy texture and overly sweet Churros - dense with not great flavor Good to stop by if you know exactly what to get

Well first of all i was disappointed in the atmosphere around the.time.we went, there was alot of.pple surrounding the bar. I think they were having a get together. I had to.say.excuse me several times. we sat the bar. I dont know if we was suppose to ask for water. usually at restaurant they offer water regardless if you didnt want it, i know they do at the tables. The torilla soup had no.seasoning it tasted like plan.water. The.chicken Chipotle had no seasoning at all. I guess I will go.back to.Victor for.some great mexican food. That is same restaurant.

Food is lacking so much flavor on main dishes it’s crazy. Was a party of 5 each was supposed to be paying our own checks and the waiter brought out one bill for all. He didn’t want to go back and fix it so we had to mark up each persons items with numbers to pay our food. Still tipped him no biggie. Location is nice and all but it is missing authentic mexican flavor.

It was busy, but we were seated very quickly. Our enchiladas were delicious and there are many vegetarian options on the menu, but the salsa was only ok. Drinks were good, and food came out very quickly. Our server was nice, but not the most attentive. Would certainly go again.

8/14/24: I went there for a late lunch. The green burrito 🌯 wasn't great. It had vegetables in it that weren't on the menu, & they used white rice inside of it. Who puts white rice in a burrito 🌯? The vegetables were grilled. It didn't taste great. They tasted kind of burned. The salsa & chips were fine. The draft beer 🍺 was small. The waiter wasn't friendly. He was unemotional. I only like friendly engaging wait staff. A big part of eating in a restaurant is being treated well by the waitstaff. His emotionless unfriendly demeanor meant he received 18% instead of 20%. I was going to go down to 15%, which I will if this happens again. What I can say is that Chipotle serves great tasting burritos 🌯 😋, & their staff are always friendly & smiling.

Salsa was basically ketchup with pepper seeds, literally tasted like ketchup. Food was slathered in not great mole, cheese was not melted and still just a huge chunk in my pepper, pico inedible. Waitress didn't care and was unatentive. Expensive for Mexican food to boot.
