Food was really good. Although at the time I was eating my chicken quesadilla I didn't know that I would be woken up three separate times throughout the course of the night to have to hit the bathroom - hard! How can chicken, cheese, lettuce, tortilla and salsa upset my stomach THAT much? I think there was a "special ingredient" added to prevent food poisoning or e coli if you know what I mean. (wink, wink) The service was pretty bad. She forgot a bunch of stuff we asked for (water, coffee, ice tea refills for the pregnant lady, second order of chillupas, etc.) I also thought it was a little overpriced. I don't live anywhere near Walpole so I can say I probably will never be back. Which my stomach thanks me for in advance. read more

Fresh, delicious, authentic Mexican cuisine. Clean, nice space. Great service. My family's go-to for Mexican food- we've been coming for years! So lucky to have it just a few minutes from us. Highly recommend green chicken enchiladas, just fantastic! read more

I have to say that this is about the worst Mexican food I have ever tasted. To say that this is authentic Mexican food is an outright lie... wasn't aware that they had Microwaves in Mexico? I've been to Mexico many times and this food doesn't taste anything like it. Seriously this food tasted like crap, felt like it was pre-packaged, and reheated in a Microwave. The only reasons why I gave it one star was becuase the Bartenders were cute and nice to look at. read more

This place is bad. The margaritas tasted like some sort of mountain dew soda and the food that my girlfriend and I got were just ok tasting. And definitely not Mexican. Most Mexican places aren't exactly authentic but this place is twice removed from a real Mexican establishment. I'm not sure why I would give them 2 stars instead of 1...I feel bad for them and I only went once so it's possible it was a very off day read more

Looking forward to them opening up in Bellingham, MA in early December. Service and food quality are spot on. My server the other night was the manager, I think they call him "Olympus". We were in a rush to go to a movie and they hurried up our order. Perfect night out with the wife and kids. read more

"Lo Mejor" - the best of the best for the Boston area! The freshest ingredients ever. Yucatan style Mexican food at its finest. And, not to forget the tacos mole, sangria' and guacamole! This place is a hidden gem, with so much potential. It will put any other Mexican style eatery to shame. The owner is so cordial and warm, with some of the best hospiality this side of the border. Everything is made to order, home style and fabulous. Be patient for your food, it is well worth the wait. Even the chips and salsa will put other places to shame. This place rocks! read more

The green sauce they pour on top of the chicken enchiladas suizas really added terrific flavor. They came with black beans & rice that were quite good. My wife loved the chicken taquitos she ordered. Fast service. read more

All food and drinks overpriced and less than mediocre. Poor service. Gone to more than once in case it was one off night, it wasn't.

Absolutely love this place, definitely our favourite haunt since we moved to Walpole! Great food, great service, and reasonably priced. Love having this place on our doorstep read more

The margaritas come in fishbowls- think Friday's in the 90's- and they are amazing. The food is delicious and the wait staff are attentive each and every time we go read more

The food at jalapenos is excellent for the most part. It is Traditional Mexican minus the flavor. Many of the menu items taste wonderful, including all of the burritos, and the fajitas. The Tacos on the other hand were bland and boring. Their seafood section is fantastic, nicely seasoned dishes, but lacking variety, you can order from 5 shrimp dishes, 3 or 4 Tilapia dishes, 1 salmon dish, and a swordfish. Jalapenos deserts are fantastic, especially the churros, you can also enjoy fried ice cream, a few different cakes and fried plantains. If your lucky they have their special dessert, Tres Leches Cake or 3 milk cake, which is by far my favorite. The Bar, what a fantastic place to hang out and drink, which i do a couple times a month. The staff is very friendly and for the most part very attentive, minus a very dim-witted but very pretty blonde. The Margaritas are amazing, they use homemade sour mix, as well as any of there 100-some odd tequilas. The sangria is amazing albeit a little untraditional, claiming to be the owner's family's secret recipe, has a delightful cinnamon finish. I wouldnt recommend drinking wine there as the wine ist is not very appealing. All in All i enjoy Jalapenos almost everytime i am there, aside from delinquent bartenders and lack of serious flavor. read more

This place is awesome! We have been many times. Coming from living in New Mexico more then 20 years I was really hopeful to get Mexican food here in New England. Overall this place is legit on the food options, taste and style in which the food was made. They have great beers and awesome margaritas and the service has always been stellar. Only thing I wish they had is real green and red chile instead of the green poblano sauce or red tomato paste. read more

Worst Mexican food I'VE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE...if you can even call it that! I'm from the South where we have tons of really fantastic Mexican restaurants all run by real Mexicans, this is not one of those! Horrible food, horrible service & way overpriced! I gave it two chances & that was too many if you ask me! Really stinks for me b/c I live right across the street but I won't ever go back! I'll stick with the amazing food at Acapulco's in Norwood or The Alamo in Milford!! If you think this is good Mexican food you should get checked out, lol!! read more

This place was great when we first started going about 6 years ago. Not sure what happened but it's really gone downhill. It's too bad because it has the potential to be great without too many Mexican joints in the area. The food is bland and grossly overpriced. The service is usually terrible. It's also in desperate need of a makeover, new decor and please get some new menus. I'd be willing to give it one more shot of things change, otherwise my business is moving elsewhere. The prices really do not make sense for the quality of food you receive. It's disappointing. read more

If you hit this place on a good night, the food and service is awesome. Great nachos de puerco and yummy (though expensive) margaritas. If you hit it on a bad night, though, you'll want to get up and mix your own damned drinks. read more

One word sums up this place: bland. The food simply lacked flavor. Our server was attentive enough but not enough to make us go back, ever. Highly recommend El Mariachi's in Easton, if you are willing to travel and want tasty, authentic Mexican food for reasonable price. Buenas suerte! read more

Took my family to Jalapeno's and was pleasantly surprised. A little pricier than the mob of chain restaurants in this area but very large portions made up for it. I would challenge any post-college man (without his own cable show) to make his way through the fajitas in 1 sitting! Fajitas were quite good, and quesadillas worked well for the kids. Service was very friendly and capable. Will definitely go back, and probably check out the tequila bar with the guys at some point. read more

Worst food i have ever eaten. I threw up for two straight days.

I stopped in for something to eat with the family...I was suggested to have the Chipotle margarita. Man, it was amazing. I as going to get the enchilada, and she talked me into the Jalapeño burrito. I was glad that she did as it was like a party in my mouth!!!!!! Then she informed us that the kids get free deserts with the meals. WOW!!! They were great! I suggest that you come here as fast as you can and ask for Joanie to serve you, it will be worth it!! read more

Groupons expire on the day they expire, not the night before. We weren't the only ones arguing with the hostess about this... it baffles me why the establishment would want to piss so many would-be customers off. On top of that, my food was soggy and over-cooked. Absolutely inedible. Never again. read more

I'm kind of indifferent about Jalapenos. I will say that the food is really good for Mexican food in the New England area. They also have table-side margaritas on the cheap. The table-side magaritas are a great treat, and they would be getting 4-5 stars from me because of this offering. However, I truly believe that they have a ton of bacteria growing inside those table-side servers. Everytime I drink from them I feel sick the next morning. However, this is not the same kind of sick that you might be thinking. This is the "I've eaten something bad" kind of sick. I can't go there anymore until I get word that they have cleaned out those things! read more

Definitely not for anyone who likes Tex Mex. it's a little more authentic, but still not one of the better Mexican meals I've had. The fajita was good, but the chips and salsa left a lot to be desired. read more

Overpriced. I ordered a burrito for take out and received a pencil thin burrito with no sides. No rice, no beans, just a child size burrito for $15! Would only recommend for patrons with deep pockets and small stomachs. read more

Good Mexican food. The owner is from Mexico and does real Mexican not TexMex so be ready to enjoy. Margaritas are good. Try the empanadas. Really enjoy the Mole Poblano. read more

Been here a couple times so I figured it was time to chime in. I enjoy the atmosphere the most about Jalapenos, I love the lanterns, the decor and the music. It all adds to the experience. The service I had on both of my visits was great and the servers are friendly and help guide you on the menu if you are feeling a little overwhelmed. Attentive to drink refills (I pretty much only ever have water but always have a full cup!) and also check in enough to be endearing but not overbearing. The food is good, not amazing and nothing that has blown me away but when I am looking for it, I know where to come, and trust me it is not a bad thing! I prefer this location over others in the area due to how comfortable it is and the service. I keep reading good things about the Margs, so I guess I should try one eventually. Keep up the good work Jalapeno's, you are doing great. read more

Relatively good Mexican food and average Margaritas with average service. They have some daily specials which is nice to have some alternate choices. A little bit pricey and some of the food is a little bland, but the basics are done well. read more

I've been a customer since Ricardo opened up down the street. My friends come from all over the country to eat here. Great place, great food, never any less than 100% excellent. Ricardo has a great business but it hasn't gone to his head so he's still pumping out the great food that he made 12 years ago when he had the little joint on the corner read more

The place wasnt bad but it wasn't great. The prices were too high for the quality/quantity of food. Not a fan of their flan. Service was good. Probably won't be back. read more

This is the first time that we came here. It couldn't have been nicer. Mindy was awesome! Nice authentic Mexican food at a reasonable price (generous portions that we couldn't finish and took home). Try the flan... It's superb. Quick service too. Would definitely come back. Yum!!! read more

Hard to say. Really. We were the only two people in the place, 5:00 on a Monday evening, so that's difficult. The waiter was a bit amateur, not bad, but he was a bit dull. I like servers to be either entertaining or off in the shadows. This poor guy seemed lost. The food was okay but I expected more, not in quantity but in quality or unique flavor. If you are going to promote yourself as a unique Mexican, a Mex without the Tex place, you've got yo do a bit more. I'll probably go back one more time, just to see where I was wrong. Maybe a busy time will bring out their true flavor. read more

When this place opened up in the center of town it was PACKED. Great reviews from the TV shows and all, but I don't like lines so I waited. Went there about a month ago with a friend and was not disappointed. I've had better Mexican food but this was definitely up there in my book. It's more expensive than Taco Bell but if you're looking for an upgrade in quality this is it. It's not exactly authentic but it's pretty close. Bottom line: It's a good eat. read more

Jalapenos is a great place to go and eat outside when it's nice. The food is authentic, and they have a lot of different dishes to try. Their fish tacos aren't my favorite though. It always seems a little expensive to me. I have only had 2 margaritas here and they were both too sweet for me. I'll just stick to beer next time :) read more

Went Last Night with my Wife The free chips had a bad aftertaste (like the oil they cooked in was old) My fish tacos were like rubber- (rice was good) We will never ever go back there. BTW - 6 PM only had 3 tables filled so I think the word is out that this place is terrible. read more

Consistently delicious! Love the chicken fajitas, complimentary fresh salsa and chips. Recently updated decor, and "no wi-fi talk to each other" sign gives this place 5 stars! read more

If I could give negative stars, I would. Place is a dump, my salad was inedible, and the service non-existent. Stay away!

Disappointing meal- the food had no flavor, mediocre drinks and poor service. Will not be coming back to this restaurant.

Best authentic Mexican food in town! From the quesadillas, burritos, to the homemade chips this is a satisfaction guarantee place to eat!! The deep fried ice cream and churros are amazing as well! When you're in the mood for fantastic Mexican food this is the place to go! Not to mention the place is decorated in a Mexican style too!! read more

Great place for a relaxing night out with friends... Their drinks are awesome and service was great. Definitely a hidden gem! read more

This is a decent mexican food place with a pretty good atmosphere. They never seem to have the right staffing levels, but it is a good place to sit at the bar/lounge area and have a few drinks. I think the food at Acapulcos in Norwood is a little better, but this place is probably a close second for mexican food in the area. The menu needs a few more additions, and the cleanliness of the place could use some work as well. If you live in the area, this place isn't that bad. read more

I LOVE Mexican/Tex Mex food and this was some of the worst Tex Mex I have ever had. To start, the pros: The chips and salsa were good, the black beans that came with our meals were actually very tasty and the restaurant has a decent ambiance with some outdoor seating. However, none of these pros made up for the horrible food we had at Jalapenos. To begin, the margaritas were terrible. They were giant bowls of sweet and sour mix w/ very little else. The menu was very limited. All of the enchiladas were chicken, the only difference being the type of sauce served over each one. My husband and I each ordered a different enchilada. The chicken filling was completely flavorless. My husband described it as "watery." And the salsa verde pour over the top had no flavor at all. It was by far some of the most bland and least flavorful Tex Mex I have ever had. A previous yelper had had suggested saving your money and going to Taco Bell. I read this review before I want and thought he was exaggerating. Not the case! At least at Taco Bell, Qdoba, or some other fast food Mexican restaurant the food will be flavorful. I could have whipped up far better Tex Mex in my kitchen with a grocery store Taco kit! Although far from being authentic, if looking for Mexican/Tex Mex food in the area stick with a couple of local chains: Acapulcos or Margaritas. In addition, the service was poor. We went for a very early dinner and there were only a couple other guests in the restaurant, with at least 5 servers present and it took quite some time to be addressed by a server and to receive drinks and place our orders. Overall we spent $60 on 2 margaritas, 2 entrees and tip. Having not enjoyed the meal, the drinks, or the service, clearly I did not feel my money was well spent. read more
