I was pleasantly surprised by this cute clean place. We visited on a Friday evening and were immediately sat. Our waitress was very kind, attentive and even answered our questions since it was our first time visiting. The beef fajitas were delicious and at a great price too! The flour tortillas were yummy as well! We will definitely be back and recommend others try this place! read more

Huge breakfast tacos! We did a big family order to go and staff were super friendly and food came faster than I expected! Inside of the place was spacious and had lots of seating and table availability. Very affordable and great value. Tasted really good and portions were generous. We got egg and cheese, nopales and egg, bean and egg and barbacoa tacos. read more

We really enjoyed our meal at El Jalisco Grill- we were hungry from a road trip but the happy hour margaritas just hit right (all day happy hours on Tuesdays/Thursdays with $4 margaritas). Complimentary public parking lot. The service was great and the food was yummy! We got the street tacos - (2) el pastor, (3) asada and the taco salad. We really enjoyed it! The chips and salsa were great as well! Definitely recommend! read more

I frequently used the drive through while staying at a nearby hotel. I would study the menu, ask for suggestions and every time I'd get a number 24 the combination platter. Lol. The food is good, the price is right and the Customer Service is friendly. I recommend them. read more

I think this has to be one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in Corpus everything they brought out was delicious The salsa, the beans, the rice the fajitas. Everything was on point. The staff was very sweet , The best part I noticed in this restaurant is the staff works together as a team an actual team read more

We had enchiladas and guisado... the food and margaritas were excellent. This will be a regular stop on our future Corpus trips.

Jesse went above & beyond serving our party of 24! He was thorough with taking the orders. He substituted what we needed. He was organized in splitting the bill between 5 families. He had the Mothers do all the ordering with him. All plates were close to perfection! Everyone had plenty of food to take home and have as left overs the next day. Thank you, Jesse! read more

The skinny Margherita is the bomb! The staff was so friendly and helpful with suggestions. We went tonight, Tuesday, and the place was hopping. Great portion sizes and oh so tasty! The mango habanero sauce that comes with the pineapple dish was beautiful! We even got an extra 4oz container to go! We will definitely be back! read more

El Jalisco Grill - I ordered two bean egg and bacon. The picture is what I got instead, - Mexican Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

The service was amazing, he was friendly, smiled, and was honest. He was knowledgeable and shared some recommendations as well. Water and margarita came quick. The margarita was overall good but a bit heavy in the sweet and sour, but still decent. We got the chile con queso with beef and it was good; borderline salty but well seasoned. I got the poblano shrimp and it was excellent - large portions. My husband got the Mexican plate and it was good - large portions as well. The tortillas are house made, along with the sauce. I would have preferred the flour tortillas to be a bit fluffier, but still good. We had leftovers because of the portions. Decor was nice. 3 out of 4 TVs were dim/off color, but I didn't mind because I wasn't there to watch TV. read more

Great Tex Mex flavors. Had the chicken and beef fajitas. What made this flavorful was the use of queso as the base, mixed with the juices of the meat. Great margaritas and friendly service. They also have a drive through. read more

Decided to visit this tiny restaurant in person on a weary Wednesday night. It's small inside, about 18 tables, very clean with TVs in every corner. The menu is huge and our waiter was very knowledgeable and helpful. We ordered a soft fajita taco plate and a picadillo taco salad. The servings were enormous! Lots to take home for lunch the next day. The fajita chicken could've used more seasoning and the beans seemed cold but otherwise tasty and more than we could comfortably eat. Total for two entrees and two teas was $33.41 before tip. We will be back! read more

So happy to find this spot! Excellent queso and chicken flautas. Tons of great Tex Mex for very reasonable $!

We grabbed lunch here before jumping over to Port Aransas, and I'm glad we didn't miss this place. The Enchilada "Sampler" was tasty and offered a bit of all flavors. They made me a customized version of Shrimp on the Beach, and their queso blanco is to die for. (No joke! We haven't had this kind of queso since moving to Texas!) Portions and price are fantastic. This is a must stop lunch place. read more

Best queso! When we lived in corpus, me and my husband went probably once a week. We visited there this week while in town. Queso is still amazing. The salsa recipe has changed. Still good but the old receipt was better. The fajitas are still solid choice. read more

The food was Good! The service was Okay and the ambience was really nice, looks a lot more modern than other places around. What took me off guard was the pricing for the portioning you get. Super small portions. Nonetheless, pretty good food if you have the cash to spend. Sweet tea was good and fresh (i'm a sweet tea critique). read more

When i ordered my dinner I asked for chicken quesadillas but they gave me cheese quesadillas and I didn't asked that i said Chicken quesadillas. So when they bring my food I checked the order and they gave me Chicken enchiladas and the cashier said that I said that and I told her no I said chicken quesadillas like three times and also she had a very bad attitude I didn't get her name. read more

Great food!! Service was efficient and really friendly!! We ordered "to go" and had plenty of leftovers! Mmm

Went here for dinner tonight. The food was between okay and good but the service was totally sub par. We ordered two margaritas and two classic steak fajita dinners. I thought it odd that to waiter asked if we wanted tortillas. I said of course, it comes with the meal, right? Anyway the margaritas were good and the fajitas came out on time. They were sizzling but the waiter didn't bring us anything to eat with. So we sit there as they sizzled out. I then went to the cashier to say "we have nothing to eat with. Two minutes later our waitress brought us knife and fork to eat our warm fajitas. However we still had no tortillas, beans or rice. Not to mention guacamole, pico de gallo or sour cream. I'd say maybe 8-10 after receiving the meat, they gave us the rest of the meal. It ruined my mood and my dinner. I only left a $2 tip and a note on the receipt. Idk if I'll ever go back but, they have to improve service, fr. I forgot to say that the flour tortillas were really tough to eat, not soft at all. read more

The food was fresh and delicious! It was easy to get a table and the server was attentive. We had the chicken flautas and the ribeye mini tacos. The flautas were hot and crispy while the chicken was flavorful and moist. The tacos came with 5, so you won't leave hungry! The ambiance was casual and medium noise level. Overall, I really enjoyed the food and would come back again. read more

This place has reliably good Mexican food. It doesn't necessarily wow you so much so that you neeeed to go back and recommend it to everyone you know, but if you go you won't be disappointed. The chilaquiles we're solid, the chips seemed homemade (or at least not from the grocery store). We also got tacos, and each that i tried was good. I remember them having a decent amount in each, too, so that probably two would be enough to satisfy someone. If you're in town and want to get some Mexican food, stop by! They have a drive through, too :) read more

Great food, great people, great service Restaurant is also clean, cool and has nice big windows and tvs with games on. Good Tejano music. Most importantly they have one of my favorite tex-mex dishes which is sour cream enchiladas. I get the chicken but you can also get beef or cheese. Thank you El Jalisco for being a nice getaway while I spend time at the Christus hospital with my sister. read more

Got home with to go order and discovered they left the toppings off of my nachos (queso & guacamole). Called back for a refund. Was told she spoke with the cooks and they put everything on the nachos. All they would do is recook them for me to pick up (I have 1 week to redeem). Just wanted a refund, not to have to drive to the restaurant again. Does this picture look like there was Guacamole & Queso on my nachos. Disappointed. read more

The 5 reviews are spot on. This place is absolutely delicious and the service is on point, friendly and engaging. Our waiter promptly acknowledged us and took our drink order. The chips crispy, salsa was good but the one in the bottle (ask for it - it's like a taco sauce) was definitely better and had much more heat kick to the palate. Wife and I both tried the tortilla soup, helluva flavorful, with a lot of shredded white chicken, flavorful broth. Definitely recommend that. Wife had the street tacos, 2 carne asada 2 pastor with rice and charro beans, grilled onions and a grilled jalapeño. The meat on both was tender and had good taste. I had the El Mexicano plate; 2 enchiladas, crispy beef taco with rice and charro beans for $11.50 and for the amount of food it's worth it. Wife and I loved the charro beans, beans clean in a delicious flavorful broth. The enchilada red sauce was fantastic with Tex-mex flavor, crispy taco meat is seasoned well and the rice is moist. Definitely recommend this place. read more

Food very good we enjoyed the drinks also. We will go back next time we are in town hopefully soon

I have been three times. The food was horrible. I took the second one back and asked for my money back, the nice lady assured me that if I gave them another chance my next meal would be free. Well they charged me anyway and the food was still horrible. Don't waste your time or money. read more

Bland food, good service, nice setting. My quesadillas were flavorless. The service was fine.
