What People Are Saying About Las Alamedas Mexican Rstrnt
The Editor

Citysearch
The Scene – Interior Mexican cuisine came to I-10 and Voss more than two decades ago when Las Alamedas first opened its immense oak doors. The pillared exterior matches the elegant, yet relaxed, atmosphere within. Waiters glide through the cathedral-like "north room," which is dramatically adorned with an impressive foyer, ornate bar area, stone floors and a 30-foot-high ceiling. The arched rear walls of the building, opening to a lush wooded view of Buffalo Bayou, are glassed in from floor to ceiling. – – The Food – Known for its lavish Sunday brunch, the rest of the…
Too bad it closed

Their website states that after 28 years they couldn't agree on a new lease and are looking for a place to relocate to. I tried calling them, but the number has been disconnected.
I took my family there for Easter brunch the past 8 years, and we always enjoyed it. I was disappointed that last year they began taking a $100 deposit for your reservation. Apparently they'd had so many cancellations that they were losing business.
Guess we'll have to find a new place for Easter...
- Pros: Excellent Brunch
- Cons: Deposit for a reservation?

Overpriced, subpar quisine, dirty old furniture, very dark in bar area
by jjbraunius at Citysearch
I've been going to this place for over 1o years but lately things are not going so well. It was always more expensive than your usual restaurant, with dishes from $15 up to $40. I've ordered pretty much everything on the menu and was usually very well prepared.
Lately it hasn't been so - I was served and undercooked parilla, and a few other dishes that I would simply call cost cutting.
The atmosphere - the place has a spanish mansion feel to it which is great but the bar area hasn't seen a renovation since the place was probably built. The furniture is dusty and old, and lost of undusted plastic flowers hang from each side of the bar area lattice. When is dark this place is nocturnal, I mean really dark, barely able to see the plate kinda dark. Some ambient lighting would be nice!
The wait staff is usually friendly but the Ingles is so second language that oftentimes you can't even place an order properly. Several times I order J&B Scotch and they've returned with Jim Beam!
Overall - too expensive for what it is. For this money you can go down the street to a place like Escalantes and get better atmosphere and better service.
- Pros: The building itself
- Cons: Everything else
