Camelia's Mexican Grill

Camellias is a great Mexican restaurant. One of my sit down plant-based go-to's in Royal oak. They have authentic Mexican food, along with your standard TexMex so there's something for everyone. I find food pricing to be reasonable for what's provided. They have a bar inside that always seems to have someone at it. And the dining room is busy at dinner. Food has always been served quickly and has ordered, they don't seem to be bothered by special orders. I'm on a plant-based diet and I've never had a problem getting my food served plant-based, even having them substitute salsas for cheese. The servers are friendly. I've also ordered food to go, and even had them provide free soda water to me when I was waiting for my order. The restaurants in a residential neighborhood and I wondered if they would make it, by providing good food good service at reasonable prices it looks as though they're thriving.

First of all, I have a soft spot for Mexican restaurants in buildings that used to be Pizza huts. The food is really good. I got the fluffy tacos and I loved them. the portion sizes are gigantic for the price. Everyone that I went with loved what they got.

There was only one server for the entire restaurant so service was a little slow but I also am aware that there is a staffing shortage these days across the board at dine in places so I'm not going to hold it against them at all. Overall I definitely recommend this place and I will be going again soon!

The food was delicious. And the waitress very kind and polite. I felt very comfortable being there. I had a good time with my friends.
