"This is the best Mexican food in the Plano, McKinney, Frisco, North Dallas area. I search for good Mexican food. Nothing I've found so far compares to this place. I've given other places 4 stars. But in comparison, they don't deserve 4 stars. This place is that much better. I'm going to do a different point system from this point forward. _________________________________________ Food: The salsa is excellent. It had decent kick. They had the cheap Tecate beer that is very nostalgic to me. Glorias did not have it. The steak tacos are without a doubt the best in a 25 mile radius, maybe farther. The beans and rice were above average; but maybe the overall experience was so good I imagined that the beans and rice were better than they were. Either way, I liked their beans and rice more than any other Mexican restaurant in the area. I couldn't knock them for many things. _________________________________________ Review: This is the first time I'm ever doing this. I'm going to do a different point system that will allot me to more accurately judge food. I'm giving El Pollo Alegre 8.9 out of 10 points for Mexican food. Which is extremely high. Valentines day weekend we tried Gloria's which is down the road on 380. While they had decent Tamales, it was overall average at best. I gave them 3 stars. After eating this, they deserve maybe 2 stars. El Pollo Alegre is on a different level when it comes to the food and a better price. In comparison, I will give Gloria's a 5.7."
