My recent visit to Jacalito #2 in Little Havana was a truly enjoyable experience, offering authentic Mexican flavors in a charming, small establishment! This place is a fantastic find for delicious and affordable Mexican cuisine.
The food was genuinely good, and the prices were even better, offering excellent value. I particularly loved the tacos; the pork tacos were outstanding, easily the best I tried, packed with flavor. What truly surprised me were the refried beans – I usually avoid them, but here, they were absolutely delicious, perfectly done, and I could honestly eat them all day! The rice was also perfectly cooked, complementing the dishes beautifully. I also heard great things about their lunch bowl with carne asada, which sounds incredibly satisfying. The shrimp tacos were also a good choice, fresh and tasty.
Beyond the fantastic food, the atmosphere has a great vibe. On one occasion, they even had a DJ, which added a fun and lively show to the dining experience, creating the right kind of energy. The staff provided good service, ensuring my meal was satisfying. It’s a nice, small spot with both indoor and outdoor seating options, making it versatile for different preferences.
Jacalito #2 is a hidden gem for anyone craving authentic Mexican food in Little Havana. Despite being a smaller establishment, it delivers big on taste and value. I highly recommend stopping by for their delicious tacos, incredible refried beans, and the overall good vibes. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

Good food and even better prices. The tacos were good with the pork being the best. The refried beans were delicious. And this is coming from someone who hates refried beans ! I could eat these all day.The rice was perfectly done as well

Had the shrimp tacos. They were good. Different tortilla would’ve been better. I’m use to thinner flour home made type.

Nice small establishment. Located at the corner of a small shopping center. Parking is extremely limited due to multiple business at the shopping center. They have outdoor seating which is on the walkway to other business, about 3 tables. Inside seating available, also about 5 tables. There’s counter seating also available. Pricing is good $$. There’s a lunch menu available, so make sure to ask for that menu which isn’t provided unless you all for the lunch specials ($10.95). I arrived during early lunch time and it was empty with one waitress to attend. Service was good and the tacos and lunch bowl (carne asada, lettuce, rice, shredded cheese, pico de gallo y avocado dip) was satisfying. Overall, not a bad experience. Additionally, they restaurant purchased a new location, two business over, with an exclusive, small parking lot, but it’s currently closed due to construction issues.

This place has two locations the other one is good but this one sucks. Bad service, asked for water like 5 times. Mind you we were the only people in the restaurant.
Understaffed only one person doing everything in the restaurant and he’s super slow. Food was cold. Went during the Wednesday special and happy hour but had to argue the final price because we didn’t “ask for the special” worst experience and we won’t be back. This place charges way too much to not be on point with food and service.

Never have I gone to a real authentic Mexican restaurant where the waitress never wrote down anything and kept responding the wrong items. MICHELADA WITH NO ICE. THE TACOS, with no sauces and if you don’t order an entire order, they can’t make you the taco you want. Bad experience

The food was good. I think their other location in Flagler and 37th is better
