Great Food! My favorite is the breakfast burrito w/ the green salsa and a churro. I tried the carne asada fries and it was alright. It wasn't bad but it wasn't like the other places I've had it at. I recommend trying the breakfast burrito! Parking can be tight since it is connected to a gas station but the drive thru goes by quickly read more

First off, they have a really good breakfast burrito... but I am hesitant to go more often because their prices are high. This morning I went and got a steak breakfast burrito, $9 and change. You go to pay and they stick the tip machine in your face at the drive thru... so now you feel obligated to tip on an already overpriced burrito and no one is waiting on me, they aren't doing anything but making my food, so why a tip? So fine... So then you're already feeling a little taken advantage of... then they ask if you want sauce for your burrito, I say yes, can I have 4, please? (Mind you these cups that hold the green sauce are tiny) then the lady says I'll give it to you this time but now we are charging MORE for sauces. Excuse me? I'm spending $10 on a burrito and you can't give me a quarter on an oz of salsa?? That was the breaking point. I won't be back. I'll just go to Sanchez they don't police the salsa and they are nicer. read more

Hopefully, it's just the learning curve of the new crew, but this food is awful! Bland, worse than bland, all I could taste was the oily tortilla. read more

I love the Jalapenos on Bluff. This new place on River is lacking. Customer service is not good, and I just paid 7$ for a burrito the size of a Taco Bell bean burrito. I'll be driving to the Bluff location. read more

We weren't greeed or acknowledged when we walked in, and the gal who waited on us was not engaging at all. The atmosphere was so-so, and the food was disappointing. We both ordered the two enchilada combo. It was so ordinary and the beans and rice tasted like it came out of a can. Gave it a try, won't be back. read more

They messed up my order. I went drive thru and I was running to work. I called and told them they messed up and they said in order to get a credit I had to bring the burrito back. Very upsetting. I told them I'd take a picture of it but I'm not saving my burrito in my car all day...to come back tomorrow. Anyways not helpful at all won't go back. read more

I'm not too brave when eating here, I usually order a quesadilla and it's always been good. The other food I see coming out looks tasty. They have a salsa bar with about six different salsas, they are all tasty. I like this place and it's one of my go to places for Mexican food in St George. read more

Great burritos and provided several choices of toppings from the salsa bar. Clean and friendly.

I love theses guys and their food. I've been going there for years but recently I stopped. I stopped going there because I no longer could put up with being forced to make the decision on the computer screen at checkout to tip or not. 100% of the time I order take out, that should not be subject to tipping. I don't sit down to be served, I just pick up, pay and go. So I should give a 25% for that? A 5% and piss them off? I a take out they should toggle through no tip with the total. I don't like being put in that situation, I told them so and they laughed. Well, who's laughing now? I won't be back. read more

I stopped at Jalapeno's during my day trip to Saint George over the weekend. Prior to landing here, I was met with waitlists and road blocks to at least half a dozen sit-down restaurants around town. However, I wanted to get a bite to eat before heading back to Vegas, so I decided Jalapeno's would work just fine. The fare is pretty standard gas station-adjacent Mexican fare. The workers were not the friendliest either. I ordered the enchilada plate with chicken and green sauce, as well as a side of chips and salsa. It was meh. The chips were borderline stale and the salsa was tasteless. Not the best experience, but not the worst. I likely wouldn't return. read more

Use to love this place but recently my son wanted some taco's from this place so we went and he ordered 5 tacos when the bill came it was $16 for tacos that had shredded beef on on 2 small tortillas and nothing else. They have lost my business. read more

If you're looking for you favorite Birria spot in town this is the place. I always get their quesabirria tacos and they're amazing every time. I wouldn't recommend takeout for the birria as it gets soggy quickly, however you have to try it! read more

No frills Mexican food that delivers on taste at a low price. I always come for breakfast burritos when I'm in St. George. Can get crowded with work crews on some mornings, so don't expect get to immediately get your food. Still, worth the wait. read more

Came back for tacos two days later and those were delicious as well! We especially enjoyed the cabeza and carnitas. Drive thru takes a while but it's worth the wait! read more

Jalapenos Authentic Mexican Food - Clockwise from top right- Adobada, carnitas and cabeza - Mexican Near Me - St. George, Utah

Giant wet burritos. You better come hungry because the portions are huge. Takeout for each order is served in catering size aluminum platters loaded with rice, beans, salad, and a packed wet burrito with loads of sauce. Everything tasted fine, but given the amount of sauce, it has hard for the fillings to stand out. I do wish the menu had some more distinct, traditional options. Take-out timing could improve. Great value, do consider sharing unless you're starving. read more

I'm not sure when drive-thru tacos became my thing, but years from now when people ask me about the times of COVID, I will promptly reply that the distancing was lousy but the drive-thru tacos were good. We had just driven into town and gotten settled in, and then fired up the Yelp app to find a place for a late-ish dinner. We also needed to get gas, so it was great that this is a two-fer. A Mexican restaurant adjacent to a gas station. We were even more excited about the drive-thru, per above. We rolled in about 45 minutes before closing and were the only ones in line. We took a moment to order, but in the end went with tacos, per the obsession outlined above. And not just tacos, but six different tacos. Carne asada, birria, pollo, carnitas, and I *think* cabeza and then I lost track. Anyways, this seemed like an easy enough thing, except that it was a varied order. But we pulled up to the drive-thru window to pay. And that's where we had the negative part of the experience. We sat for a minute or two. Then three. Finally I turned off the car. Then we sat some more. We sat long enough to start coming up with jingles for the restaurant. Bad jingles. Poorly constructed jingles. Non-rhyming. We were in high spirits and laughed uncontrollably, but inside the restaurant there didn't seem to be much action. We sat there for around 15 minutes, maybe more. That's a long time to wait in a drive-thru (though not the longest we would wait on this road trip.... ohhhhh... foreshadowing!) and we finally got our order. Aside from the very long wait time, everything was pretty good. Some hits and misses, but I'd recommend any of the meats. And they packed our mild salsas and limes and things, and it was all very serviceable. They do the two-shell method, but with the drive-thru wait and the ride back, they end up being pretty steamed together. They're also verrry liberal with the onions, so you should ask them to dial it back if you're not into that so much. But all in all, we got 6 tacos, chips, and guacamole (maybe pass on this next time) for about $15. Super chill, super un-fancy, but very fun to continue the drive-thru taco tour at "Jal-a-peño's, Jal-a-peños, we sell Mexican food." read more

The ratings were pretty good here, but I found that two different meats in my tacos were dry and the tacos didn't taste fresh. The base salsa they gave me with the chips tasted like it was either in the fridge for a while or frozen for a while. It's not a returner for me. The people however were nice. read more

Most disappointing place and mexican "mole" enchiladas I have ever had. There's "no mole" involved. Merely a red sauce. I thought maybe they made a mistake on my order. I asked and they merely said that is how they make mole enchiladas with "no mole" in it...WTF!!! Not worth it. Get it together "jalapeño restaurant" We don't like faux mexican food, especially with those prices!!! "NOT AUTHENTIC FOOD" read more

One of the later spots open in St George, as a traveller this was very welcome! Only drive thru was open after 9p but wanted to go anyway. Steak and Carnitas wet burritos is what we got.

TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. we have a new born baby in the hospital and we ordered food from this one place. (Will never again) and they messed up the order. We paid 45$ for our food including 10.95 for asada fries that came with just a box of cold fries and nothing else on it. When I called to ask them about it they laughed at me and told me they can't do anything. When I asked for a manager they said I can come in and hope that there is a manager there but would not tell me when they would be. I will be going in tomorrow to raise hell. Now that I've opened the rest of my food.... tortillas were so tough the could not be bitten through. Meat was bland and cold. Please don't waste your money at this poor excuse for a Mexican restaurant. read more

More like 3.5 stars. 1 star off because the drive thru took forever. Both hubby and I ordered the 3 tacos... they where pretty good for the convenience of "fast food" was the steak high quality and super flavorful? No. Was is good though? Yea. The tacos needed some sauce otherwise good traditional style street tacos! I would come here again. read more

Don't let the fact this place is attached to a gas station scare you away. Their food is actually really good and super fast. Their street tacos are so yummy. Super nice workers too. read more

Simply the best Mexican in St. George hands down. No one is better. I've eaten here once a week for the last 6 years.

I ordered a sausage, egg and cheese breakfast burrito. The Ingredients or low quality. the sausage was pre-cooked patties, cut up in pieces. Potatoes were from a frozen bag. Price was a dollar more than the menu showed so it was seven dollars. They wanted to charge an additional two dollars for sour cream. By the time I got halfway zero my appetite was gone and the test was not enjoyable. read more

I spent 29 minutes waiting in the drive-thru with only 4 cars in front of me. The food is ok but not great, and it's definitely not worth the wait. read more

I don't have pictures because we went through the drive thru. I am rating a three because weird things happened. Nobody spoke to us through the drive through intercom after repeated attempts sayin "I'm ready". So we drove forward assuming the thing was broke, only to hear the lady behind us start speaking. So I walked back and ordered after she placed her order. Then we waited about 15 minutes at the window for them to make it. We ordered the basic tacos. So I don't know the hold up. I am guessing the drive thru was slow anyhow but we had a bad experience. The food was real tasty. We got all street tacos. Pork, chicken, carne asada. The carne asada was the best of the three, by far. read more

I went there this morning and called in my order 15 mins ahead of time and still had to stand outside the door and wait for 10 mins for anyone to even acknowledge me. Tried calling to tell them I was there and they wouldn't answer or would answer and just help the drive thru and keep me on the phone so I could hear their conversation. Finally got through to someone and asked for extra green sauce and she just hung up on me. She brought the food out and there was only 2 green sauce so I asked for more and she just walked in with out even nodding or saying a word. The food was pretty good but my god the lady that works there was horrible. By far the worst customer service I've ever experienced. Food is 4 stars. Customer service is -5 stars. Please please hire nicer employees! read more

Very disappointed with my order!! I asked for a order of the ceviche and I only got 1 tostada & enough ceviche for just the one tostada. Usually I order the same and get twice of the ceviche and at least 3 tostadas. Likely not going there again. read more

Jalapenos Authentic Mexican Food - avocado - Mexican Near Me - St. George, Utah

Honestly where do we begin? If you're looking for Mexican food that'll have a fiesta on your taste buds look no further. The drive thru is quick and the employees have been nothing but kind. Now onto the food The burritos consist of a tortilla cooked to utter perfection and stuffed with little pieces of heaven, and if you get it wet style it will be smothered in something that can only be described as heaven's nectar. The horchata tastes like liquid gold and with every bite of the warm crisp churro the filling hits your mouth like a touch of soft silk. Do yourself a favor and get jalapeños read more

Extremely disappointed first time here, we ask for a birria and they don't have it but they have quesabirrias with consume (I don't get it) food it's no good at all I will not recommend this place is Sucks read more

Don't ever eat here! This place is not clean nor sanitary. They are not even adhering to the covid-19 health and safety regulations. The chefs don't even wear masks while making the food! Gross! No gloves, no cleanliness, no masks. Disgusting and illegal! Avoid this place! Instead I drive just down the street a couple blocks to Irmita's Casita. Excellent food, clean + safe, amazing service! It's a much better choice for Mexican food. read more

Absolutely amazing cheap food. Great taste and an extremely good price will most definitely come again

My husband and I both enjoy Jalapeno's. It is located adjacent to a convenience store/gas station. We really like that they have a drive-thru, and we always use it. The drive-thru works well except for the long wait times, even when they don't seem very busy. However, I love, love, love their shredded beef tacos, so the wait is worth it. The red sauce for the tacos is good (and spicy). I can't say if their green sauce is good or not (because I don't like green sauce), but my daughter eats green sauce everywhere she goes but doesn't like theirs. The carne asada nachos are also good and have a surprising amount of carne asada on them. We usually hit Jalapeno's about once a week. read more

The food is so terrible I don't understand how this place has any good reviews. I don't know if it's because I'm from Vegas, and there's a million Mexican restaurants there that all compete to be the best or what. The restaurant itself is filthy and smells like the bathroom from the neighboring gas station. From my view there was poor cleanliness in the back counter. We ordered tacos, rice, chimichangas, cheese quesadillas. All of which were so bad we threw it all away. I'm disgusted this place sells food, much less calls it's food "authentic Mexican". Very disappointed. read more

I USED to love the breakfast burritos I get here. But this morning my breakfast burrito was absolute trash!! I was grabbing breakfast before work so didn't have time to go back and have them fix it. First off I ordered a salsa burrito with no salsa and no cheese, this is basically a burrito with egg and potatoes only. What I received was a tortilla full of egg and cheese, the cheese was not melted so a plus when I had to pick it all out trying to salvage my breakfast and then I bit Into egg shells inside the eggs. To say my burrito was Half assed is an understatement. Whoever is working your kitchen today needs an opportunity check because the breakfast I received was a disgrace to your business. I won't be back anytime soon read more

Really great chorizo breakfast burrito--but be warned, they can take super long at peak hours. Spent 30 min stuck in the drive thru. Park on the street, save your gas and AC!! read more
