The waitress was so kind and helpful. My husband and I talked to her about the black and white movies playing on the TV. I’m vegetarian but found several tasty looking options on the menu. I ordered the huarache with nopales (cactus), topped with beans, lettuce, tomato, and cheese. My husband ordered three tacos: Asada, carnitas, and lengua. Very fresh ingredients! Not overly salted or oily. And the complimentary chips and salsa was great too. I wish we had room for dessert, because that looked good too.

If you’re looking for authentic Mexican food with an equally authentically friendly atmosphere, you’ve got to go to Mi Jacalito.

Quiet and cozy, this little Mexican spot brings in the food as if Mama did the cooking yourself, what stood out most is they didn’t serve typical chips and salsa, they served perfectly crunchy chips, served in cute ceramic custom salsa cups. The salsa they served also made them stand out from your everyday Mexican places. Highly recommend bringing the family or a night out with a friends.

Nice little hole in the wall for local mexican food i did not dine in but did see ample seating for dining. Has a big menu and weekday specials on the wall. I ordered a streak burrito it was good but could used a little more seasoning, the tortilla was burnt also. Will give it another try some other time.

Outstanding tacos (so good I have to remind myself to eat other items!). Heartwarming and delicious meals that come with friendly service. Great local spot. Prices are fantastic and the specials help. Definitely recommend!

This is a small, hole in the wall restaurant. There is very limited seating. The wall prices don’t match the menu prices. I shared a taco plate with my sister. We ordered 2 al pastor and one chicken. Al pastor was dry. I took one bite of the chicken taco and could barely chew it enough to swallow, it was like chewing on wet rope with zero flavor. That one bite left nothing but the taste of strong, raw onion. The chips I’m guessing are not house made as they were hard and nearly stale. I stopped here solely on the photos I saw. I love chunky refried beans and these were chunky just NO FLAVOR. The rice is orange but absolutely flavorless. This place needs some SABOR badly. I didn’t get a receipt but things sure added up quickly. I couldn’t find a price for a side of rice and beans so they could charge anything they like. I split a taco plate, an extra side of rice and beans and 2 cans of soda cost me $23+. Pricey for a flavorless meal. Don’t let the photos fool you, the best part of my meal was the salsa and green sauce.

One of the best Mexican restaurants in town. So lucky they are in my neighborhood. My husband and I go here all the time & the food, service, and hospitality are spectacular. I always get their chicken flautas because it’s one of my favorites, Not to mention the caldos we get when we have a hangover and need a pick me up. I’d definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone.

A small friendly taqueria serving up outstanding food! The Carnitas Taco and Al Pastor Quesadilla (on housemade tortillas) were both excellent! As was the absolutely MASSIVE steak (cooked Al Carbon) burrito. I’ll be back soon!

The food is absolutely delicious! My top pick would have to be the pozole BEST POZOLE I EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. The flavor was a 10 the hominy was big! Also the waitress is always very polite and kept calling me “MIJA” which I absolutely loved. I seriously felt like I was in Mexico.
