Jalisco Restaurants

Been coming here for years. Love this place. The staff is all so very friendly. The food is authentic. I love the buffet.

We love to go to Jalisco’s it has been a tradition since my husband and I were kids for both of our families and now we take our kids. The décor is older looking but really neat. The food is good with the perfect amount of flavor. The service is one of the best. We tend to come here 3 to 4 times a month sometimes multiple times in the same week. We will definately be back!

This place is a down home friendly place… The food is always consistent… After all the years I still love this place… The waitress always nice and happy..

If you like ‘authentic’ southern Mexican cooking this is the place! I’ve been coming here for 10 years for the buffet. There’s very little of the Americanized deep-​fried food here, mostly oven baked. Most items are lean pork– there’s no chicken here. Jalisco’s has been here for 30 years or more and I don’t think they’ve redecorated since then, but I don’t come here to look at the décor. They keep it clean, the buffet is bountiful and the price is fair. I am a loyal customer.

I first went here when I was like 10. Even at that age, I was able to see that décor was incredibly tacky. I went there again recently and it was the exact same. It was like I stepped back in time. The food is disappointing, but not awful, except for the tamales, which were awful. The masa was incredibly dense, thick, and dry, while the pork was bland.

I’ve never written a review before so bear with me. the food was bland, didn’t taste like it had any seasoning. the taco was one of the worst tacos I’d ever had. the chips were over cooked and stale, the tamale wasn’t bad though. The server was obviously new so not much to say on the service good or bad. I would not recommend this place

Two words: Bacon. Taco.
We went on a Sunday around 12:30pm after noticing that Cirque de Alex was closed (possibly for Renovations), so YMMV. The Sunday buffet is a little over $ 8-​and-​change as of this writing; all you can eat.
First off, the décor is straight-​up 1970s. Orange booths, carpeted walls, lighting fixtures that look like they came out of a Medieval torture chamber, and a big ol’ set of bull’s horns right by the door.
We decided on the buffet after viewing the (somewhat limited) menu. Taco meat was on the bland side for me, but SixFootTwo liked it.
Pico de gallo is included in the buffet, so that went well with the complimentary corn chips. They also had fresh-​made Potato chips in the buffet, they were actually pretty good.
They had bacon, eggs and chorizo along with it all, thus allowing me to make my own long-​awaited Bacon Taco — with cheese and pico de gallo. Yum!
The service was OK, but we were about the only people in the place at the time.
Now normally, all of this would be enough to get me back in the door another time; but the bathrooms were WAY filthy and **tiny**, according to SixFootTwo; so in addition to this being well out of our way, this may be our last visit to this restaurant.

Craving Mexican and feeling nostalgic? Jalisco is the place to go. Oh my goodness ! Tacky metal sculptures, lighting fixtures straight from the Munsters show set, missed matched tables & chairs, good ‘ol set of bull horns only adds to this places’ charm. The only thing missing was a mirrored ball, a black velvet painting and the bulls balls. :p
Jalisco’s has a buffet ! An actual Mexican food buffet. I ’bout fell out upon entering. Salad, fresh fruit, tamales, burritos, tacos & enchiladas. I have to say, though don’t know for sure, some of the casserole type chow may have fallen off the back of the Sysco truck. Not that that’s bad, but those looking for authentic… meh. The chips sucked, but they do bring you two different heats on the salsa. I was impressed with the 4 different chili combos. I tried one with hominy and pork. Yum !
Now for the bad. Ladies if you’re over 5’2″, don’t even bother with the thunder box. Tiny, tiny, tiny… as in «How am I going to get my ass in there ?» PROTIP: Let’s just say, lock the door and use the one without the stall door. PROTIP #2: better yet… just skip the bathroom… yick!
Having average food, this place would be a great place to go coming off a bender. Olé’ !
