Drinks were good had a few margaritas they were not bad for happy hour. chips and Salsa were not it cause the Chips were stale. Fish tacos were ok crunchy but lacking flavor. Seafood Soup was a disappointment no flavor at all. The mixed fried seafood option with the onions on top was my fav out of everything we ordered. Churros were good but didn’t like that they were stuffed inside but that’s my personal preference.

Jalapeños Mexican Grill is a great off the beaten path mexican restaurant. The food I think is OK only, but the drinks are good, the service is excellent, and it’s a really fun place to have dinner with some friends. I highly recommend you give it a try and maybe your dishes will be more enjoyable than mine.

Excellent spot for some great food, cocktails, and music. Found out about this place through TikTok and could not be happier with the food. Fair prices and the food was fresh. Definitely did not disappoint

Ambiance was 8/10. Definitely a location to hit for happy hour or after work. The location appear a bit sketchy at first because of the drive, but there’s a lot of parking.

I had a good time, the atmosphere was really amazing and the food was great as well. Drinks were a little strong but still very very good. We ordered the nachos supreme and that was really good. The waiters were really nice and welcoming as well. We also had tacos and those came out really amazing as well.

I would like to start off by saying, I have been here one time in July 2022, for a birthday brunch on a Sunday. We sat at the bar. Our experience was incredibly different. I ordered the birria tacos and churros. Both came out hot fresh flavorful and everything that was desired and expected. The bartender was busy but attentive and responsive. Went there today… same place…. Totally different experience. It was active, many tables dining however not packed. We got seated right away, the host was very pleasant and inviting. The ambiance is beautiful, colorful,and traditional. The menu is diverse. The waitress immediately brought out chips and salsa and asked for our drink order. The chips were cold but not bad and the salsa was a bit on the spicier side but tasty. We ordered the margarita flight and immediately… I am confused. It does not specify on the menu how many drinks you get, however in pictures from other patrons you get four flavors with description written on the board. We did not get that. We got three mystery flavors plus an empty shot glass and a mini bottle. Still fun… but not what we expected. So we played guess the flavor. We got pineapple, strawberry and passionfruit. They were all delicious, I got the passionfruit margarita on the rocks, full size after. I highly recommend it. We ordered the ceviche. I was so excited for this. It was a massive disappointment. It was missing the calamari and the octopus, loaded with onions. They were kind enough to remove it from the bill for us. The queso with chorizo was described as queso dip with chorizo on top. That is not what we received, it was mostly chorizo with some queso. I would not typically mind, however, it was hard to eat and it took so long to come out. Additionally, because there was so much chorizo, the chip could not hold it and would break. The chorizo overpowered the small amount of cheese. It was not the ooey gooey cheese dip we read on the menu. The Parrillada sounded phenomenal. It was not. The steak was burnt and so dry. The chicken was okay. The pork chop was inedible. The shrimp were rubbery and way overdone. For some reason today, they could not add chimichurri sauce to it. They did not have calamari or flan. Maybe we came on an off day or they had a vendor issue. The service today was so incredibly slow. We ordered the churros and they arrived cold and really not that great. I had a hard time rating Jalapeños Mexican Grill because the first time was great and today was terrible. The host did come with two shots of tequila and apologized for the lack of availability. I will have to come back again to see if today was a weird experience or if they really are like this all the time.

2nd time coming here and the 1st time the food wasn’t satisfactory with our takeout order.. this time, we dine in because we heard there was new management and staff, and the service was great. The young ladies’ helping gave us suggestions and even brought out complimentary dessert of flan, which was delicious unless you don’t like sweet desserts.
