Went to Alberto’s for a team dinner event. Liked the atmosphere and vibe . Its one of the best place to try Mexican food in downtown Pleasanton. Do try the drink Alberto’s Margarita, if you are looking for one.

At 11am on a Thursday afternoon, this place is perfect. There was a faint trickle of early lunch guests, and the staff said I could seat myself anywhere, so I picked a far-corner bar table. My seat was cushy, and not too high-up (which I consider...Read More

A Total Comeback — So Glad I Gave It Another Chance! I hadn’t stepped foot into Alberto’s Cantina in over 10 years. Back then, the food and service under the old ownership just didn’t cut it for me. But wow — what a difference new ownership...Read More

The service can seem a little slow, but everyone works as a team and it is a European model where you seat yourself. The food is solid and fresh and many of the components including the flour tortillas appeared to be made from scratch. The...Read More

Food is OK but Happy Hour prices more than make up for it. Update to this review. Alberto's is now under different management. Portions larger, food quality is better. Atmosphere about the same though service has improved.

The food was excellent, not to mention the portions were generous. I stopped by for lunch and was very hungry, yet I could barely finish my burrito! Our server was attentive and polite, and the location in the heart of Downtown …
