Jalapenos Mexican Food

Tacos were ready fast I’ll give them that. I got two chicken and two pulled pork. The pork ones were ok. The chicken ones, terrible! My taco was falling apart. Not even cooked I feel. And the chicken isn’t giving me chicken vibes. Don’t recommend the chicken tacos at all. I came to this spot wanting authentic tasty tacos it was highest rated but I am disappointed.

Man I tell you this place is awesome. The family that run it are just beautiful people. Taco salad is great. Tacos are great. I can't remember what it's called but it comes to your table sizzling on a hot pan, soooo cool and tasty. Parking is a little awkward but so worth it! Enjoy.

This little spot has the most authentic Mexican food on the Island. The family that owns runs it is always delightful, and the food is phenomenal. Not to mention the portions are super generous (1 burrito for me is 2 meals! They 100% are the real deal.

Delicious, authentic, filling. We got the Mexican plate and the taco trio with a horchata. Food came out quickly and the service was great. We’ll be back ?
