I absolutely love this place! It is beautifully decorated, clean, the sound system was fantastic and food was amazing. We had Trinity as our waitress. She was very attentive and had a great personality. I love trying new things when I go to a new restaurant and she obliged to pick out my meal for me which was soooo good. This place was a great experience! I definitely recommend.

1) Service is excellent. Everyone is quick and attentive. 2) The food is pretty good. Things could be spicier, but it's good. 3) The salsa is bland, watery, and has an odd aftertaste. 4) The drinks are truly awful. Their "margarita" uses a prepackaged "margarita" mix from a large jug reminiscent of industrial solvents. You can quite literally taste the corn syrup in their "margarita." Margaritas are not supposed to be yellow. If you have never had a real margarita before, then it's tolerable, but when you know how they're supposed to taste, it's genuinely repulsive. 4.a) No additive-free tequila is available, only high profile celebrity-endorsed brands. 5) Prices are too high. $15+ for three tiny street tacos is not worth it, although the tacos themselves were quite good. Charging $10+ for tequila and corn syrup with citric acid is highway robbery. Overall, this is definitely one of the Mexican restaurants I've ever been to. I don't regret coming necessarily---the food, ambience, and service were all great---but this is not a place I'd ever see myself returning to.

I have been here at least 20 times since and if I could give them 10 stars - I would. I have been to nearly ALL Mexican restaurants within 20 miles. Adelita's is by far my favorite. The food is always fresh and delicious. The place is clean. Service is great. Everyone is friendly and the margaritas are fantastic. If I had to pick only one Mexican restaurant to go to, anywhere in the St Louis area, Adelita's is it!
