The food is very fresh and delicious! The staff is great and service isn’t too long. In the pictures, we got the Bistec Rachero (beef with jalapeños, rice/beans), the Cubano torta (Cuban sandwich), fried chimichangas with fries, jalapeño poppers, carne asada fries, and queso. Everything was very good so I recommend everything. Their salsa is also very unique and tasty – it’s got a spicy Chipotle taste to it. When you get to the restaurant, it looks like there’s nowhere to sit but there is a lot of seating in the back. They have tables for 8.

Hands down the best Mexican food I have ever had. We shared the molcajete for two….it could have fed a family of six I’m sure. So much flavor and lots of meat! If Leonardo davinci was a chef, this would have been his Mona Lisa. The only downside was the $7 guacamole. It was fairly watery and had little flavor, I just wouldn’t get it next time. The salsa that comes with the chips is smokey and delicious and a fantastic addition to the molcajete. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely delicious food. The place was clean and the staff was very friendly. I am from the West Coast, so my taste for Mexican food is a bit biased. Nonetheless, so far, the best I’ve had here in Wilmington.

I loved the food. The service was great. She was very quick to get our orders and food out to us. The main negative comment was that the seats were not installed well and the plates were burning hot when brought out. I touched the plate to adjust the plate and burned my finger.

Jalapeño Grill has been a favorite of mine for YEARS! Great food, generous margs, friendly and attentive staff. If I’m getting tacos in Wilmignton, 8/10 times it’s from here.

Decent service. Only got a margarita. It was just okay to me. I was a little disappointed that I couldn’t customize my meal (i.e sub the chicken for shrimp). The salsa was delicious though. I wasn’t super impressed with the menu. Maybe I’ll try again another time.
