    An absolutely perfect evening at one of our favorite local restaurants. The ambience is wonderful, the meal was delicious and the service outstanding! (Kristina is an amazing server! You may want to ask for her, we will next time.) We will continue to bring our out of town guests to ALMA.

    Overall, a great experience. The food was good and the service much improved. In the past I have found that the establishment is really short on labor. However, we received good service from Hugo

    Our 4th visit and the service , food and drinks are absolutely wonderful. Tacos, Shrimp Ceviche, Lobster Quesadilla, Elotes and Pork Chop & Bacon Jam were all well prepared and the flavors are off the chart. Every visit Alma has impressed and thank you for the Manager to stop to say hi and ask how everything is. Our server was excellent … asked who was their first time and explained everything about the different menus. He was very patient as the table was a little slow getting into the menus as we were visiting and talking but in all his service was awesome ! Another wonderful evening and we’ll be back in two weeks.Love this place !
