El Jacalito - Birria Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Clinton, North Carolina

Damn man... I've eaten a LOT of Mexican food in my 53 years, but the steak / shrimp burrito here is literally the best burrito I've ever eaten. It was so good, I ordered a second one to go! Place is small, and simple so don't expect "fancy dining" but the staff was friendly, the tables were clean and the burrito to die for. Would definitely come back. read more

Oh my goodness... Being from California.. I hear how the expectations for these mexican food joints are high. The other places that claim to be "like" calif style food... Are usually not. But when i find a place , that is not only delicious, and is NOT like any place in town... Or claim to be as good as Texas or Calif.. Then I know.. Its about the quality... Not the hype. This place beats out anything near it, and is worth the motorcycle ride out to Clinton, Nc. In 15 degree weather. Tacos and tortas are out of this world, and bumping into fellow Bragg troops there, confirms it for me. read more

Tasty little hole in the wall Mexican restaurant! Decided to stop in because the other Mexican place around the corner was too packed, glad that I did! Food and price were 4.5/5. The decor and interior was well it fell a little short for me. The waitress was so friendly. She helped explain the menu and helped me to decide what to order. I tried a pork taco, chicken taco, and a steak sopes. I really liked the chopped chicken in the taco and how they used lots of cilantro, my fave! They were making homemade tortillas while we ate. Loved how authentic this place is! Just wish they had a nicer location, because it's a bit small and dated! read more

This spot is a hit or miss at times and I say that cause if it is too busy the food will be ok so you may need to go before it gets busy at 12.i know if the guy is there with the hat its going to be real good. they go through several cooks at times and that's what it makes it a hit or miss. my wife was there last week and it was a hit and about a month ago it wasn't that good. Still though overall this is probably the only go to spot if you want that authentic Mexican spot read more

This was a nice place with a tasty lunch. l had a burrito, and instead of putting the rice, sour cream and guacamole on the side, they put it all in the burrito! lt was very good that way. read more

Very good food!! Very authentic! Best Hispanic food around. Very friendly staff and quick service. My favorite place to eat

Food is pretty good price isn't bad neither they just gotta work on their costumer service. They were a little rude.
