Reviews for Alebrijes Kitchen + Bar in White Rock, BC
Quick service, great customer service , quality food, good atmosphere. Came here on a Friday night and got a patio seat right... away. Our waitress was immediately welcoming and she continued to be throughout our meal. She gave us great recommendations!Food prices are on the higher end but was well worth it. Margarita - 2oz but didn’t taste much alcohol at all. Not worthit. Ceviche - refreshing and savory. The chips were a bit too thick for my liking but the sauce/base of the ceviche was a greatblend of tang and spices. Would recommend. Enchiladas - smothered in a thick savory sauce. Shredded chicken was marinated andblended well with the sauce and other toppings. Very tasty with explosion of different flavors in your mouth. Mahi tacos - verylight and refreshing for deep fried fish. Flavor of all the different ingredients were a bit light but the waitressesrecommended hot sauce was the perfect pairing. Read more
First time at this restaurant and will definitely be heading back often. Wonderful, fresh and real margaritas. None of that... fake lime mix. Entrees were awesome. I had the duck. It was perfectly cooked - crispy outside and medium rare inside. Mole wasrich, flavorful and spicy. Wife had the pork belly and that too was awesome - tender and marinated well, but not chewy. Bonus onthe homemade tortillas. Service was excellent too. Didn’t hurt that they graciously moved us for the patio so we could watchthe fireworks. Read more
Really amazing food. It tasted very homemade and authentic. Amazing flavour profile. The coffee and cocktails were also... delicious. Decor is fun and nice art. I like that they use corn tortillas instead of flour. It is a bit pricey but I assume thatis due to the quality of ingredients. You can tell that they use only the finest. The servers were also incredibly kind andwelcoming. I always prefer to support small businesses and this is one I will be returning to if I'm in the area. Read more
The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new, an... extraordinary meal from Alebrijes Kitchen. After visiting many Mexican restaurants, I finally found a capable one thatrepresents Mexican cuisine properly. Out of all the terrible misconceptions and stereotypes about Mexican culture. I considerAlebrijes a high-end restaurant full of art and balance. It could exist millions of Mexican restaurants around the world butonly the finest ones create art and represent a culture so well my admiration for the artist who made such an extraordinarymenu. I will be returning to Alebrijes hungry for more !! Read more
My new favorite restaurant. The dishes I've tried are all what I would consider classic comfort food, but prepared and presented... in a elevated fashion. Flavors are well balanced and obviously carefully considered. It seems like they make everything they canfrom scratch including hot sauces. The dishes don't appear overwhelmingly large on sight, but the the meat portions are moregenerous than I expected and the food is very rich, so I've left feeling very full every time. The service is friendly andprofessional, with staff who clearly love the food and have a deep understanding of the menu. Good cocktails and an extensivetequila selection, really round out the experience. And it's definitely worth trying a dessert if you have the appetite for it.They make a really nice french press coffee as well, if that's what you want with dessert. For me this feels like mexican finedining food in a casual and welcoming environment. I personally find it consistently cool inside, but this may be because wealways sit by the winfiw. If you like to be cozy, make sure you're wearing something warm (if I'm in a t-shirt I tend to end upwith my jacket back on fairlyquickly). Read more
Oh my goodness. The best Mexican food I've had in a long time! Good sized portions, cozy atmosphere, and beautiful views. The... mahi-mahi tacos are phenomenal. Read more
Authentic Mexican restaurant in White Rock. Second time here and we always enjoyed their food albeit the wait. We enjoyed the... appetizers to our main courses plus their churros, one of the best. The location is near the boardwalk and a good view of thebeach too. Service is great and everyone was very pleasant and hospitable. We will surely be back. Read more
