I've had essentially the same experience each time I've visited Alberto's Cantina on Main Street. I go inside and am seated within a few minutes; since the interior is primarily a bar complete with big television monitors and tends to be loud, I prefer sitting outside on the patio, weather permitting. The servers are attentive enough, but generally a little on the slower side. I almost always order a Tostada, which comes chock full of chicken, sour cream, cheese, guacamole, salsa and other staples of Mexican food. The Tostada is nice and crunchy, and is always more than I can finish in one sitting. A pair or trio of singers often circles the patio, taking requests from each table. The entertainment is definitely a cute and charming addition to the atmosphere there. My main complaint about Alberto's is their odd drink policy: No free refills on sodas. I've never been to another restaurant of the same caluibur that refused to give free refills. I don't understand it, and for this reason, I only go there when other restaurants on Main Street are full.
