There aren't a ton of places to eat in the small town of Williamstown, so we decided to give this…read morespot a try since it's just down the block from the Ark Encounter. First off, I've never seen a Mexican restaurant this packed. The place is super colorful with all the traditional décor, murals, and fun wall art. We were seated right away, and the staff was hustling the entire time. Even with how busy they were, our food came out pretty quickly. The portions were huge, and everything had great flavor. My only complaint was the mango margarita, it tasted more like mango juice than a margarita, they were skimping on their tequila apparently. They also have out several different hot sauces, which was a nice touch if you like a little extra heat. If you're visiting the Ark Encounter and craving Mexican food, I'd definitely recommend stopping here. Great food and fast service, plenty of parking too.

We chose El Jalisco because it was close to our hotel and my mom was craving Mexican food…read more I'll start by saying that I live in California and eat Mexican food pretty regularly, so I may have higher expectations than some. The restaurant itself is bright and colorful, with vibrant tables, chairs, and decorations throughout. It definitely has a fun atmosphere. I ordered the chicken fajitas with corn tortillas, and my mom ordered what she thought was a simple cheese enchilada with a side of rice and beans. Somehow there was a communication mix-up because she ended up with three large plates: one piled with rice, one piled with beans, and a third with the enchilada. It gave us a good laugh. My fajitas looked great when they arrived, but unfortunately they were missing the one thing I was hoping for: flavor. The chicken and vegetables were cooked properly, but there didn't seem to be much seasoning at all. Not even enough salt to bring everything together. The corn tortillas were also torn apart when they arrived, so they weren't very usable. I hate leaving negative reviews, but the food simply didn't live up to expectations. The service was fine and the atmosphere was fun, but the meal itself fell flat for me. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing, but based on this visit, I wouldn't choose to return.

We were quickly seated by a smiling face and given drinks. Our waiter was so friendly and accommodating. The place was packed. It looked like it had been a diner in the past perhaps. The walls and ceilings were lined with vibrant art and papel picado in bright colors. We tried the ground beef queso and it was so full of flavor. It seemed scratch made with just the right balance of meat to cheese. We tried both flour and corn tortillas. I preferred the hearty corn, but the flour was equally delicious. The sauces are both amazing and I ate them with a spoon. I hope to return and try the empanadas, pupusas and the sopes.

So far on my visits, the food has been great and the service has been pretty good too. The only issue I face is when I have to get an itemized receipt for business expenses. On my last visit, I asked for an itemized receipt right when I sat down and the server came over. The server assured me that he could do it as I have had this issue on all of my previous visits. Once I ate my delicious perfectly made meal, I again asked for an itemized receipt. The server disappeared for over ten minutes and I had to go to the counter. At the counter they gave me a tiny receipt to show I paid and tipped but no itemized receipt. Again the person at the counter disappeared for another ten minutes as I guess they thought I would just go away. Finally, a manager came out and redid my whole bill and gave me a printed receipt with separate charges for what I ordered but no item description. I guess this is the best that they can do. I do recommend they modernize their POS as since there are several industries in the area, I can't be the only person who has to submit receipts for business expenses. Aside from these ongoing issues, the food is always on point and servers do the best they can.
