Skirt Steak, Grilled Chicken, Shrimp, Chorizo, Jalapeño, Scallions and their Traditional Sauce in a Molcajete - Steak and chicken was very good, well seasoned, green leafs were also really good $40 8/10
Guacamole - nothing to special, needs more garlic and salt $7 6/10
Chicken tortilla soup - tastes just like chicken broth, needs more fillers inside and not a lot of chicken $16 4/10
Adelita’s Mexican Cocina and Tequila offers a specialized dining experience featuring traditional Mexican dishes complemented by a diverse selection of tequila. The Molcajete dish is a vibrant mix of skirt steak, grilled chicken, shrimp, chorizo, jalapeños, and scallions, all served in a stone mortar, delivering bold flavors and an interactive dining experience. This rustic presentation not only enhances the visual aesthetic but also retains the heat and flavors of the ingredients. While the Molcajete earns high praise for its seasoning, the guacamole, priced at $7, falls short according to some patrons, suggesting an enhancement of flavors could elevate this staple dip. Their chicken tortilla soup, at $16, has received constructive criticism for its lack of ingredients, indicating that diners prefer richer fillings and a more robust broth flavor. Overall, Adelita's is not just about the food—it's about the experience and atmosphere, where vibrant decor and welcoming service complement the authentic culinary offerings.
