Birria Tacos were 5 stars and on point! Consume was not bitter at all and slightly thicker than I'm used to- which was amazing! Perfect flavor on the tacos, very rich. Everyone practically inhaled them! Steak fajitas were great, nice and tender. Milder flavor of meat, not over powered with spices if you don't prefer a kick. My go to favorite restaurant now!

slop....just slop. I could get better at taco bell. 2 bean burritos meal consisted of 2 wraps with a spoon of refried beans inside and a side of refried beans on the side. What happened to the days we ordered mexican foods and got more than we could eat? Remember the free chips and salsa that use to come free even with to go orders? Gone! I had to buy separately and that brought my total to 30 bucks. less than a can of refried beans and 2 wraps, chip, and salsa with 4 grilled queso cheese sticks for 30 bucks....save your money go to the store. They will never stay in business serving this way.

Ordered a gringa quesadilla that was supposed to have pork and pineapple. This is what I received... steak, chicken, and shrimp. Didn't really notice until I ate a few bites and was thrown off. I don't really eat seafood, so total waste of $20. The entire bottom of the quesadilla was also burnt. We usually order from other places, but wanted to give El Jalepeno a try. Very disappointed.

I ordered pico $2.50 and received about a tablespoon. Half a bag of chips. Half of my order missing.
