" Had an enjoyable experience at Alero, but it wasn’t perfect. The interior has a beautiful design that immerses you in a festive mood. I ordered the brisket tacos, which were good but could use a bit more seasoning. The service was decent, with a friendly waiter, though it seemed they blocked out the more crowded seating areas a bit. Even so, I think I might give it another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't believe how authentic the food was at Alero! I instantly felt transported to Mexico. From the vibrant decor to the chirpy atmosphere, it was a distinct experience. I ordered the carne asada which was grilled to perfection, and the service was also quick, which I appreciated since we arrived of hungry. The drinks truly matched the food; I commend them on their margaritas! I would highly recommend this to anyone! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a vibrant place Alero is! I came for a birthday dinner, and they made it special. The food was authentic and tasty; we ordered a variety to share, including tacos and enchiladas. The staff was enthusiastic, making sure we felt celebrated. The atmosphere was clearly meant for fun and social engagement. I highly recommend booking ahead as they can be quite busy, but totally worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" Having just moved to DC, I was excited to try Alero based on great reviews - and it didn’t disappoint! The beef fajitas were amazing; perfectly cooked with generous portions. The atmosphere was lively, perfect for a Friday night out with friends. However, I noticed some inconsistency in service; our waiter seemed overwhelmed. I still had a fantastic experience and plan to return soon for the bottomless brunch offer! " (*Curated Review*)

" A loud and lively spot! Alero offers a range of classic Mexican dishes, many of which were tempting on the menu. I finally settled on the chimichanga, which had a nice crunch and flavorful filling. The atmosphere was vibrant with a great selection of music. Unfortunately, our waiter was a bit slow which detracted from the evening a tad, yet I would definitely return for the food and fun. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're in the area, Alero is a must-visit! I decided to go with my family for dinner and we left incredibly satisfied. The friendly staff made sure we had everything we needed and the ambiance was bright and cheerful. The food was fresh and delicious; I particularly enjoyed their enchiladas. Portion sizes were decent too, balancing enough between our appetites and our wallets. We’ll be coming back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Alero has a great vibe! I went in for dinner on a Wednesday evening and was greeted by smiling staff and colorful decor. However, my chicken tamales could have been more flavorful, as they were quite bland. My husband loved his fajitas, though, so it just might have been a case of different tastes. Overall, a pleasant experience with such a lively atmosphere. " (*Curated Review*)
