About El Alamo

El Alamo, located at 3635 US-80 in Delhi, Louisiana, is a charming gem that brings authentic Mexican flavors to a small-town setting. Renowned for its genuine cuisine, patrons rave about the delicious dishes, including enchiladas and chicken taco salads, all offered at wallet-friendly prices—most lunch plates under $10. The vibrant atmosphere is enhanced by friendly service, with many guests highlighting the exceptional margaritas, like the peach and strawberry frozen varieties. The standout feature, however, is the fresh made salsa, which is so beloved that visitors often take it home. A must-visit for anyone craving true Mexican fare!

    These guys know how to feed a hungry bunch! This is a small place that is about a mile out of town. We pulled up and it was empty. We were concerned, but decided to try it anyway. They serve genuine Mexican food. It was not Tex-Mex or even New Mexican. We happened to visit on one of the buy one get one free margaritas promotion days. We had peach and strawberry, both frozen. The strawberry was served with a salty rim. The peach was served with salt and sugar rum. This brought out the flavors of the peach perfectly. The lunch plate prices were good. It was under $10 a plate. The food was good too. The star of the show was the fresh made salsa. We even purchased some to take home after our trip. Since we were from several hundred miles away, he even shared the family recipe for salsa! This is a must visit if in the area and hungry.

    Wow! Five stars just doesn’t cover it. After living sixteen years in San Antonio, we appreciate good Mexican meals. The food at El Alamo is fabulous! We shared an enchilada combo and puffy taco plates. Everything was tasty, the service was excellent and the pricing is most reasonable. Do yourself a favor in Delhi Louisiana and enjoy a really good Mexican meal here!

    Not a bad Mexican restaurant for a small town. Hospitality was good, the restaurant clean, margaritas were good and the food was good. I had puffy tocos. My wife ate beans and tortillas. The food is not the best i have had but it was good. Service was fast.

    We stopped here for an early dinner. Was seated right away and they immediately brought us chips and salsa. The staff was friendly and prompt. Our food was very good and plentiful. We took home leftovers. We would eat here again when in town. Just FYI for Covid no one working here was wearing masks

    We found this wonderful restaurant while searching for Mexican while on the highway. What a gem! They seated us right away and were able to offer Gluten free options. Reasonably priced and cozy (see my photo of the decorated booth seat.) Sadly my ‘flat Stanley’ travel buddy in the picture snuck away from me at the restaurant. I hope they can find him and return him Update: They said they mailed him but he never arrived
