Last night, my girlfriend and I went to eat at Alero in Washington DC. I had been eyeing this place for a while now but never went. We went to the one in Cleveland Park and it has a nice local feel to it. The decoration is typical. The service was friendly and quick. Now to the food. We were started off with pretty good chips and salsa. The chips were nothing special but the salsa wasn't bad at all. It had an interesting color to it, but the flavor was excellent but needed a little bit more kick. For the meal, I ordered a grilled chicken chimichanga with rice and beans and a margarita. The margarita was very good but the meal needed work. The refried beans and rice were pretty bland. The chimichanga was just a tortilla filled with chicken, a little cheese, and some rice and for 10 bucks I was hoping for a little bit more. Overall, the place wasn't that great and I would probably never go back. From what I understand though, the location on U street is better, so I would recomend giving that one a shot and skipping the Cleveland Park location.
