We’re from Texas but visiting family in Johnston City, so we decided to try the one and only Mexican restaurant in town. Admittedly, I’m a bit of a TexMex food snob so I had at most medium expectations. However, I’m excited to tell you that the very large menu has so many great choices. I had the Mi Fajitas plate which is similar to a dish called Mixed Parillada in Texas, but actually BETTER. Wow, I wasn’t expecting that. Also very large portion size and measurably cheaper than what I pay in Austin.
The service was very friendly and amazingly fast. The atmosphere was very appropriate for a Mexican restaurant without overdoing it.
So lots of choices, great food, good prices, and a nice atmosphere. I definitely recommend it.
So why the 4 stars and not 5? Here’s where the TexMex snob thing shows up. I like spicy salsa and the salsa at El Jalisco was good but not very spicy. So my only recommendation to the owners would be offer hot and mild salsas to choose from.
Great place, and we’ll be back.

Was told to give this a place a try by my sister. Came in for lunch. Was sat quickly, drink order was on point and quick. Server gave us enough attention. Not to little or overly attentive. Ordered Chimichanga, Carnitas and Chili Relleno. All were very good. The Carnitas today were the best I’ve ever had. Very very good. The sides that come with each plate pretty much the same as everywhere. Beans, rice, Pico etc. Nothing new. They had a special on Margaritas. Ordered a small pitcher. Flavor was good, not to limey and tart, to sour. Everyone said they were good. Ordered single glasses. Still same flavor. Margaritas not notch. Will be back for sure.

If I could give a place zero stars I would, food was horrible, service was horrible. Paid 15 for food and he wanted to charge me 2.25 for small thing of hot sauce. Got very hostile walk away with attitude came back with small hot sauce without saying anything else as I left the restaurant
