Perfect place to grab a quick, affordable bite...We ended up getting some food for breakfast and going across the street to the beach and park.. The huevos rancheros were good ...The breakfast burrito was really big... Could be split between two people...The nachos were enjoyed by our kids .The place is really small.. there is plenty of parking..They have a little store attached...We would go back ..

This was our 2nd time here in a few years. Remind me not to go here again. It was the same disappointment each time where the dishes were way overpriced and the food was only less than average. The service is not great either. The wet burrito was way too wet and had hardly any chicken inside. I could not find many beans in the nachos. For the price you pay you expect more.

For years we've visited Tacos Jalisco for take-out burritos, but recently the menu has expanded and there's some attractive seating outside. On our last visit we got relllenos that were the best we've had anywhere in a long time -- not over-battered, good chile flavor. Also cheese enchiladas, again with excellent flavor of the cheese, the tortillas and particularly the sauce. And the burritos were, as always, large, generously filled and tasty. We love our take-out, but this is now a nice enough place (at least in summer) for sitting with a beer and a meal. We have been fans of La Mexicana nearby, but our recent experience there was underwhelming at best. La Señora (who does it all herself -- don't be in a hurry) at Tacos Jalisco is at the moment the best bet for authentic, tasty Mexican food in the area.

Lupita's across from the village post office in a shopping center catering more to local residents than tourist is very popular. Taco adobada was tasty and the shrimp diablo put out heat. On a weekend night large groups gather for tasty, authentic, affordable food and drinks. The noise level can be loud with boisterous groups.
