El Jaliciense Mexican Restaurant

One of the best Mexican restaurants I've ever been too, and I recently moved here from southern California! Don't let the simple aesthetic fool you, the menu has a ton of great options, large yet reasonable portion sizes, and great authentic food and drink! They also had sandia (watermelon agua fresca)! Which I don't find most places. I had the birria plate and it was so tender and delicious- a little spicy, but a consistent spicy, not a building kind. My partner had the shrimp tilapia plate and wow were they both perfectly cooked! I'm so happy to have found such good, authentic Mexican food, and especially so close to home. I can't wait to go back and try something else! Update 10/23: Great jamaica and some of the best pastor I've ever had!

Great service! Went on a Sunday when it wasn't crowded. I got the pozole (available Saturday and Sunday), and it was just what I wanted: flavorful, a little spicy, filling without weighing me down. The complimentary salsa was delicious. Fairly quick and convenient. Pricing was as expected for basic Mexican food. 5/5 would eat again

This is a fairly nice spot. All of the food is really good. Our tacos came out pretty fast and were delicious. The chips and particularly salsa stole the show though; it was very flavorful and actually quite spicy! The atmosphere and service are pretty laid back. It seems to be family owned and run. The best part are the really low prices. My bill came out to just over $10 for a single person for three tacos and a beer. I have easily spent three times the amount on myself at places like bartaco for the same amount of food.
