Its the only place in town to get great authentic Mexican tamales. However they only do them on the weekend. The food is good, price is right, and service is adequate. The servers could give patrons a bit more looking after especially when they each only have 2 tables. It was early and not busy.

I used to love eating at La Orquidea. I had a recent experience that changed my mind. My son (11 years old) and I went to La Orquidea on a Saturday afternoon around 2:00 p.m. We went to the cash register to place a take-out order. We were second in line. There were about 12 Hispanics behind us in line. When it was our turn at the cash register, the Hispanic cashier purposefully moved away from the cash register without so much as making eye contact with us, went to the bar, and, speaking in Spanish, began assisting the Hispanics in line behind us. When the first Hispanic paid his bill in cash, the cashier made her way back to the register, made change, and then went to the bar to assist the next Hispanic customer. What the cashier did not know is that I am fluent in Spanish. My son looked at me and asked if we, two white guys, were being discriminated against. What other explanation could I give him for the cashiers actions? Wanting to give the cashier the opportunity to serve us, we stood at the register for another five minutes. Not once were we even acknowledged. Needless to say, we left....for good. For my son, the experience was positive. Lifes best teacher is experience. Im glad he was able to feel the effects of discrimination. Hell remember that experience for the rest of his life and when tempted to discriminate, those feelings will help him make a good choice. Unfortunately, however, Im not going to give him a second life lesson. Though I have spent well over $2,000 eating at La Orquedia, I will not return.

Worst Mexican restaurant Ive ever been to!! Its impossible to get any service because everyone is on their phone. Then they messed my order up and got an attitude with me because of their mistake. I will NEVER go into that place again!!

The restaurant is huge with high ceilings. The temperature in the restaurant was very cold. The menu is too big and very confusing. The waitress didnt know the menu and couldnt help us out with what to order. When our order came it didnt look like what we told the waitress. When we checked the cashier asked us if everything was okay we told her no, she said sorry. A side note the fresh squeezed orange juice was delicious.

The seafood looks great we bought jumbo shrimp but the guys in the meat department couldnt understand English and the lady upfront that checked us out was pretty rude🙄

Ma
Review №16

We went in to the restaurant part, sat down, and the 2 female waitresses stood and argued in Spanish who were going to get us. The lady from the front slammed menus on the table and said someone would be with us in a moment. The lady who brought chips out was nice, but the chips were hard as rocks. No one ever came to take our drink order or any order for that matter. Moral of the story: dont eat here if your white. Go to Rubys or los arcos, or chicos they are all much nicer and treat you as a human not a white person.

Super cheap! Surprisingly, their bulk items are relatively cheap when compared to other places that only sell singles/smaller containers.The bread upkeep is anything but desirable its been full of flies both times Ive visited. Aside from that, so long as youre not getting any bread, its a pretty neat place. Prices are unbeatable.

My husband and I went to have tortas. I havent been there in years but it was just as good as I remember. He has the chicken and I had the shredded pork. It arrived at our table so quickly that we didnt really have time to enjoy the chips and salsa. My husband also ordered rice and beans. He said the beans were delicious but the rice was a little dry. The server was quick with the plates and offering refills.it was a large amount of food for a good price.

Man, let me tell you. Ive lived in Boaz for about 13 years now. La Orquidea in Albertville is about 6 minutes from my house in Boaz. So Ive known about La Orquidea for quite some time. It wasnt until about a year ago that I went to eat there and I was so surprised with how much the quality of the food improved. The portions, the flavor, the variety, the freshness. It has improved ten fold since my very first visit. Personally I love tacos de lengua. But you cant go wrong with the huaraches, sopes, quesadillas and many other antojitos offered. They also serve plenty of Tex Mex options as well. The flavored waters like: Tamarindo, Horchata and Jamaica are always fresh and feel homemade. Honestly, you cant go wrong with this place if you love authentic Mexican cuisine or Tex Mex.
