Reviews for Aldaco's Taco Bar in Lansing, MI
My wife and I have been coming to Aldaco?s for several decades. Sadly, only the front half of the restaurant is being used with... their famous buffet closed. The food was delicious and my surprise was that a sign posted at every table that a bowl of chipsand salsa were no longer available. My wife was has beef here for many years was upset and ready to leave since we?ve neverheard of a ban on chips and sake abut to our surprise our wonder waitress Aneissa brought us a small bowl of their fresh madechips with a mild salsa because I am a whimp for spicy. These are not ordinary chips from a bag but hand made deliciousness.To our surprise was the prices, only a dollar and some change was the difference between preCovid-and today?s prices. I loved mychoice number 13, the taco, burrito and toast ado trio. My wife?s favorite TACO MUSH was gone in seconds. This is her favoritedish of all of the Hispanic restaurants in MICHIGAN. Aniissa was the sweetest and most courteous waitress we?ve ever met. Hersmile, bright personality and understanding of the menu overshadowed our initial disappointment! Every meal was trulyauthentic in its Mexican fare. Simply put, this is worth the 50 Mike drive, gas prices and all! I applaud the cooks and ournewly beloved waitress,Aneissa! Typos are all mine, my taste buds never lie! Yummy! Read more
Good service and food from friendly people. Try their roast beef taco mush! Yummmmm Their very affordable & authentic. I've... been a customer of theirs for years and remember their 1st location that burned in old town. Read more
I had the half order of nachos with all the toppings, ( some in small cups on the side). I liked them, tasted fine. Food is a... subjective choice, so unless it's really bad, I tend to give it 4 or 5 stars. If the nachos would have been over loaded with thetoppings, I'd have given it 5 stars. It use to have a buffet, but I was there on a Tuesday lunch, maybe they only do the buffeton weekends. I like the place for what it is, a small restaurant, decent food, I'll go back. Read more
We?ve been waiting 25 minutes for our drinks. The waitress service is very poor. The service has gone down hill. I doubt we?ll... be coming back here again. UPDATE?the waitress couldn?t remember our drink order. I?m sure we?ll be waiting another 25 minutes. Read more
Absolutely great food here. Service was great and will keep coming back.
I have been coming here for years. The staff is long-term and literally watched my kids grow up. Good food, great staff! ***... UPDATED 5/8/21 No longer the same as they once were. The quality hit rock bottom. ???? I don't know what happened, but thequality of the food can't get any worse than what it is. I ordered a combination dinner and tostada lunch. I threw away theground beef taco because the meat tasted old and the corn tortilla was so stale, I couldn't even bite a piece clean off. Thetostadas were buried under a huge mound of lettuce. The cheese enchilada was a gooey, mushy mess. That was basically a rolledup tortilla with the cheese melted on TOP of it, because it was absolutely flat with nothing inside of it. Loaded with a thick(not fresh) mole'. Pictured is the tamal that came with the combination dinner. I don't recognize the meat in it. That isdefinitely NOT fresh. It looks several weeks old! ???? The prices went UP and the quality plummeted. This was ordered asdelivery and it came in 20 minutes and now I know why.. They MUST have grabbed food that had been sitting around all day andthrew it in the microwave. Except for the tamal...that had to be sitting around for weeks! Meat doesn't look like that overnight. DO NOT waste your $$. Maybe ownership changed hands? But it is definitely NOT the same as years ago. ???? Read more
Stopped in for a quick lunch on my break. They have an all you can eat buffet for a very reasonable price. I got an enchilada, a... tostada and a taco. It was good. Fast service, a very polite and attentive server. I will definitely be going back. Next timeI?m going to try the buffet. Prices are reasonable, service was fast and food was reasonably portioned.

It was a warm, fall day and we sat outside. Good food and hard working staff.
