Amelia’s Rustic Mexican Restaurant 2130 Northeast Griffin Oaks Street, Hillsboro, OR 97124

"Not great. Amelia’s by the Hillsboro airport. I’ve had food delivered from Amelia’s (possibly another location) and it was great. Sadly, our dinner experience was not great. The atmosphere inside is loud, if you’re hoping to have a conversation during your meal, this probably isn’t the best place. I had a hard time hearing my friend who was sitting directly across the table from me. The restaurant wasn’t very busy. The food was underwhelming. The corn chips were cold, the salsa tasted mostly like canned tomatoes. My salad was beautiful but it could have been much more enjoyable had it been dressed properly or had enough dressing been served with such a large salad. It did have some good attributes. The toppings were tasty, but lightly sprinkled over a lot of lettuce.The balsamic onions were good as well as the meat. Ultimately it was bowl of mostly dry lettuce so it ended up tasting bitter. The salad does have potential, it just wasn’t prepared as well as possible. There was no greeting from staff who just looked at me. Service was mediocre. Staff seemed unhappy and one staff member looked downright angry. Seemed like bad vibes. It was unpleasant. Since we cannot force staff to simply become happier, our alternative is to not return to that environment. My friend left her margarita because it tasted so much like sweet and sour."

"Kind of upset with my recent service. Good friend keeps telling me I need to try it, finally did. Ordered the Loco burrito with no beans, and extra carne asada. Got home, and it’s packed with beans and shredded chicken and NO pico de gallo as advertised on the menu. I only live a couple blocks, so I took it back and the waiter chewed out the guy in back. Made it fairly quickly but when I got this one home, there was no green sauce and still no pico. Clearly your chefs cannot be consistent and it’s extremely frustrating, I’ll still eat it because I’m tired of driving and I just want to chill but this is nonsense."

"The food is traditional and very tasty! The service was speedy and we were fortunate to arrive just before the dinner rush, and it was a Rush! There were 3 occupied tables when we arrived, plus a patron at the bar; within 30 minutes there wasn't an empty seat! A group celebrating a birthday showed up and they had to open an area that was previously not being seated. High Quality, great variety, they even went above and beyond to provide my grandson with a special modification to a standard dish, he enjoyed it very much! I look forward to eating here again!"

"Great food and generous portions served by a friendly staff are the main qualities that define Amelia's to me. I work on the East side of Hillsboro and when I am craving Mexican food at lunch, this is always where I go. (Pro-tip: don't order the Burrito Loco (attached photo shows the part I couldn't finish) unless you're REALLY hungry or you like leftovers!)"

"Amelia's catered my wedding a few weeks back and the food was incredible! It was a total hit. The tacos, rice, and beans were fresh, flavorful, and just what we needed during such a long day. Josue was my contact throughout the planning process and he helped personalize the catering to my event and guests needs. He was incredibly easy to work with and I highly recommend them for your next event!"
