El Jalisiense: Reviews & Ratings
Went by today for lunch. Had the Plato Guadalajara it was really good! Service was great and the food came out quickly.
Super friendly, great atmosphere great food . The staff is always willing to help in any way they can
This place has the best food and service in town.
Wow, what an omelette ! Another road trip local diner stop, this time for breakfast. And El Jalisiende was the perfect choice for a meal to start the day off right. This place was extremely busy but service was fast and friendly. Plenty of choices on the menu, I went with the Jalisco Omelette. No skimping on eggs or ingredients here - quite a large omelette and cooked just right ! Creamy beans, warm tortillas and all the trimmings were great, but the subtle star of the meal was the breakfast potatoes. Seasoned just enough to be extra flavorful, perfect crispiness on the outside but still soft and meaty on the inside. I love taters (home fries, hash browns, fritters, whatever) with my breakfast but these diced treats were truly some of the best I've had anywhere !
Food was good, I got beef and chicken quesadillas. Not a whole lot of meat. Service wasn’t the best, not the worst.
Stopped here on our way to New Braunfels. Hubby and I both had the fajitas nortenas and the food was AMAZING! Staff was very attentive. Is definitely a local favorite because it was full of happy families! It was definitely worth the little extra drive off expressway 281. Recommend 1000%!!
Great team, amazing food. Lovely atmosphere. Great price. Lots of seats. Self seating. When you check out make sure your server gets the tip incase someone else rings up the ticket for you and spins the screen. I leave cash tips at places like these just in case. I didn't ask my servers name because I'm not weird, but she was instantly a top pick. I drove 3 hours to eat here. The sweet tea is so friggin good here. The smothered carne asada burrito is peak. The Carne Guisada Gordito is hands down the best in Alice, as far as restaurants go. And I'll fite someone about that. The crew was having a good time, and worked well together. The manager on duty had a sharp eye and was hospitality minded, smartly dressed lass as well.
The food was very good
