   Our waitress was outstanding and the food was excellent. The hostess was not so great. She could not find my reservation and kept telling me I did not make one. Even after I assured her I had made it weeks ago and showed it to her, her reply was well you didn’t. It was frustrating to say the least. We were here for a 40th bday celebration and the birthday girl was getting flustered. Thankfully someone stepped in and got us a table. My exactly what I had hoped for, a high top in the middle of the restaurant and were quite squished. But we appreciate that they were able to make it work. And our waitress was BEYOND amazing.

   We’ve been so disappointed the last few times we’ve dined at Al Pastor. It’s just OK Mexican food and way over priced for what you order. This establishment used to be a phenomenal restaurant and I’m not quite sure what happened. Fortunately they have a captive audience.

   Disappointed in the menu and how it shrunk to the size of Chipotle’s. You can no longer get fajitas and they only had churros on the dessert menu. I thought they had done this temporarily during COVID, but to go on a date here is disappointing.

   Because I have Celiac disease, there aren’t many restaurants I can truly safely eat at. This one is always my first choice because I’m always accommodated with a smile, I’ve never had a reaction from cross contamination of gluten exposure, the food is AMAZING, the staff is sweet, and my whole family loves coming here. I could eat here every day! Highly recommend for dates, groups, or just a special night out.

   Went to Al Pastor, no one was there to greet us or show us to a table. Looked inside for some help. After waiting 2 minutes, we left.

   We went for a regular Saturday night dinner and we’re not disappointed by the quality of the food. The pork belly tacos and the Mexican fried rice with pork belly were fantastic. The drinks are always wonderful the service can be hit or miss but it’s never terrible.
