It is the La Cueva of the other side of town. It appears to be family owned. The two men at the counter were very welcoming and friendly. The food was good as was the service. Not fancy. Good value. The booths are a bit worn but it was very busy the night we were there so I am not surprised. Worn, but clean so who cares. The focus is on the food. :-). I will go again. read more

Jalisco was highly recommended to us by a friend. We can say that we are pretty good connoisseurs of Mexican food but really don't recommend. Upon our arrival, the restaurant was empty and the cashier really wasn't welcoming. We ordered a chicken taco salad and the ranchero steak to go. The restaurant itself was clean and offered a full bar. I was disappointed in the salad because I specifically ordered refried beans and received whole. The receipt even specified the request. The salad was ok consisting of beans, lettuce, cabbage (yes,cabbage) a lot of chicken, a few tomatoes and guacamole. It was presented in a cute star shaped shell. It would have been better if the cabbage was nixed and cilantro and onions added. The dressing was on the side but I did not utilize, it was too sweet. The ranchero steak was flavorful. It came with rice, refried beans and corn tortillas. The rice and beans were ok but were not as flavorful as we like. A nice addition to the meal were the complimentary chips and salsa. The salsa isn't homemade. I watched the cashier fill up the sauce bar with a gallon size container. The sauce lacked any chunks of tomato, onion, cilantro, etc. it definitely needed salt and texture because it was like soup. For what we received, we feel it was costly ($51) plus they add an additional 2.9% for an 'operations' fee.' We don't recommend and will not be returning. read more

Delicious! I could only eat a few bites due to my sore throat, but I hope tomorrow I can chow down! Jalisco's hasn't changed a bit! If you want delicious old school Mexican food that's fresh, not greasy, with quality ingredients this is your place! Chile Relleno-Cheese Enchiladas with onions. Yum! If you're a meat-eater, get their crispy tacos. Don't expect fancy decor, this place is old school. Booths with torn seats, old metal chairs, but it's not the ambience you're coming here for, it's the food. read more

This place has been here forever! A couple staples I enjoy: their homemade flour tortillas! The best- hard to find these around at most Mexican restaurants. They also do an amazing breakfast scramble WITH the tortillas- I love the bacon, egg, cheese, and potato's. I also love their chicken burritos- super simple. And of course a simple bean, cheese, and sour cream burrito. Staff is super friendly- ambiance hasn't changed since I was a kid. It's clean and has a good amount of seating. read more

Negative STAR! Review! Manager very unprofessional got food for our autistic adult son on Saturday 16th quality of the food was old. My son regularly smells his food prior to eating he would not eat it we were skeptical of the quality of the enchiladas because they were all like chopped up with just a bunch of cheese and old chicken...We eat Mexican food regularly, and this was subpar... Returned the food, we asked for a refund, and the manager lied and said he would put the money back on my card I paid with cash then was rude to my son's mom and told here jess leave like she did did not exist...The manager needs to go through customer service training on how to be respectfully communicate with customers! EJ. read more

I came here with my son even after I seen the 3 1/2 star rating. I thought I want to be my own judge of the food. Worst mistake coming here. The food is so horrible. I had the chili relleno, chicken enchiladas with rice and beans. The rice was ok, the enchiladas sauce had little to now flavor, along with the chicken. The chili rellano had a crunch to it. Never had a chili rellano with a crunch. Worst Mexican food that I ever had. I would have been better off going to Taco Bravo down the street, which is saying a lot. My first time here and my last. I ended up leaving most of the food. read more

Jalisco Mexican Food - Chicken, enchiladas and chile Riano's with rice and beans. Nasty! - Mexican Near Me - Campbell, California

Super nice workers and big portions. Their rice and refried beans are delicious. Carne Asada in my burrito was fatty so I wasn't crazy about that. Chicken in the tacos was just okay. You can pick up chips (okay) and salsa (meh) from the bar. There's a lot of seating inside and they were packed and busy on a Friday night. read more

Food came in a reasonable amount of time. Dining area was clean. Salsa bar simple/basic, without a mild salsa as an option. My meal was disappointing. Basic chicken enchilada, beans and rice The star should have been the enchilada. The chicken was cooked perfect. The tortilla and cheese sauce were 'ho hum'. Likewise, then beans and rice. The choriso, tasted authentic but wasn't near as enjoyable as that found in the meat counters at Nob Hill and Lunardis. The cirn tortillas served on the side cold and stiff. I was disappointed that, knowing the history going back to the original location, I am not able to give a 5 star. Hopefully this was a "one off'. read more

Excellent service for a walk-up counter and solid Mexican food! Bonus points for the free chips and salsa bar with absolutely delicious salsas! We had 2 baskets! I got the enchilada and tostada combo with rice and beans. The enchilada was tasty with a nicely spiced sauce. The tostada was crisp and fresh, but the cheese was a bit low quality. Beans were perfect and yay for vegetarian refried beans! Two things that knocked the score down - Rice was not good, clumpy, and tasteless - Salad on the plate had a sweet dressing (French?) that really took away from the rest of the meal and because it was the same color, I couldn't differentiate enough from the enchilada sauce to remove it I'd definitely come back for a cheap burrito and sit on the patio on a sunny day! read more

"If you actually are mexican and respect yourself don't eat here" Sorry Jessi but had to steal your quote from your 1star review from 2023... not that I disagree with you in any way but to warn the rest of this earth population as well. We were out and about and my autistic adult son got hungry and this place were close. I'm excited because if this is anything like the food in jalisco where we have visited about 10 times he will love it! I did not order anything for myself. I got a combo plate for my son.. he likes to smell everything before he eats..he also loves to cook and aprecheates good food. This time he wouldn't touch it. I took a bite of the chicken enchilada and it actually triggered my gag reflexes and I spit it out. I know how freshly made chicken taste, day old and just old. This time it was old, almost rotten but I guess they figured he wouldn't say anything and maybe not be able to tell since chicken wasn't visible in the tortilla and sauce. This type of thing make normally humble me angry. I told owner/manager) chicken was old and he lied in my face stating it was fresh. The poor girls working in the kitchen (yes I only saw young female workers in the back) gave me the kind genuine "I am sorry look" and I am truly grateful for that. It's not their fault that they are forced to use up old meat to save money for the owner. We went somewhere else and yes we got our money back after threatening to write a bad review. read more

The food is delicious. We go on Sunday for Menudo. My husband realized when we went the 1st time, that he knows the family. The ambiance is casual. Service is always great. The food is super fresh. Oh dang, I was some cheese Enchalada right now !! read more

Yes! They were careful to find ouch which type of meat I wanted! The guacamole is really great! A feature I'm sure. My friend I went with told me he's gone here for decades. The fact it's been here for decades validates it's good enough to survive all obstacles! The super burrito is huge , two meals worth! Enjoy. ‍ read more

2 stars for the homemade flour Tortillas but that's it. This place is not good and I should've known right away by the customer profile. The food was seriously lacking seasoning and flavor. I ordered the Chile Verde with rice and refried beans. The beans tasted like they were from a can and the chile verde had no flavor. Would not go back. read more

My wife and I nicknamed this place "Five Pounds of Cheese." Jalisco's is well, Jalisco's style. Same style Taco Bell copied from Mitla's in San Bernadino. It's an interesting read to look up where this style of Mexican food came from. In a word, absolutely delicious and filling. Hard Shell taco's. Burritos. Enchilada's. All of it good. I haven't been here in a while and I'm due. Think I'll come here tonight for dinner. read more

We hadn't been to Jalisco for almost 2 years and we're on our way home from Santa Clara and went in for an early dinner. The food was even better than it used to be. Still lots of cheese but it seemed like a better grade of cheese. We still love the house made salad dressing and find it to be a perfect counter point to the meal and the sauces. Speaking of sauces! The gravy Jaliscos makes from scratch is the best. The only place that could rival their gravy was El Burro in the Pruneyard. (long gone). Salsa: It used to be very heavy on the garlic but what we had yesterday was perfect! I ate way too much chips with salsa and couldn't even finish my enchilada. It will be today's lunch. That quick dinner felt like going home. read more

I don't recommend the burritos . I went there on Friday February 20th around 5pm ordered a super burrito. When I got home and started eating there was very little meat in it. The dinner plates are ok and the rest of the menu is decent. read more

Unfortunately this place is a hard pass. Very generic food, salsa, tortillas and accommodations. I wouldn't come back if I was starving

This was a DoorDash order. We ordered "Tacos " as a dinner. It was not made clear but we expected two, because of the plural in the description , but there was only one, wrapped in paper (the grease leaked through all over). The menu was not clear about what "dinner" meant, so I ordered a side of refried beans: extra $4 that wasn't necessary. I ordered a side of "cup" of guacamole: it was the smallest possible (2") ramekin, for another $4. The chili verde was OK but unremarkable. The taco chips they sent were stale. Won't be ordering from them again. read more

I haven't been here in so long at least 12 plus years since I moved away. I am glad to see the small family owned business is still at the same location. The inside hasn't changed one bit, but they have added outdoor dining to the restaurant since covid. I've came here back in my younger days and I have still to this day ordered the chicken burrito. Nothing special just the regular shredded chicken burrito, it's just the taste and the orange sauce it's cooked in is so delicious, on top of the freshly made tortillas. You can't go wrong getting this basic burrito. They have a bar inside a small one but it's a cute set up. The owner was the same guy I remember at the ordering station. He takes the time to talk to his customers and get to know them. I know Covid has made it hard for these family owned businesses and I know they have taken a hard hit as well. So if you're in the area give this place some support and buy some food when you can. I'm so glad u got to drop by and eat those delicious burritos. read more

August 23, 2023, and 9 of us stopped in for dinner. This is the fourth or fifth time that our group has met there for dinner. Each time the food and beverages have been very good and consistently prepared. As you can see from the various pictures, we order quite a selection off of the menu, and everybody has always been happy/satisfied. Personally, I really like the shredded chicken and the Carnitas. For those with allergies, the enchiladas can be ordered with a flour tortilla instead of corn tortilla. read more

I love this restaurant if you are looking for amazing food and a family friendly environment it's an amazing restaurant.

Amazing Mexican food restaurant in a small plaza near the Pruneyard. The place feels very homey and they have a cute older letterboard menu. They bagged everything well and gave us a bunch of salsas. We ordered the -Chile Relleno (a la carte). This came with the best tasting, fresh, thick tortilla! -Complimentary small brown bag FULL of fresh-made chips (the kind of oily chips where you know they are made fresh!) -Shredded beef nachos - Huge portions with guac, sour cream, beans, and meat Tips: It looks like they had outdoor seating with heat lamps prior to the shelter-in-place. They do take credit card. Service was great! We will be back! read more

Amazing food and friendly staff. Henry, the owner, makes everyone feel welcome. And their margaritas are the best around.

Located in a strip mall, this gem of a casual family Mexican restaurant is not to be missed. We ordered at the counter, grabbed some chips and salsa, and sat in a roomy booth. We were called when our order was up. I ordered nachos with pork verde topped with guacamole and sour cream. The big chunks of tender pork along with cheese and chips made for a delicious meal. read more

i've been here twice in the past couple of years and all i gotta say is their tortillas are THE BEST! i'm not sure if they're handmade, but the texture is just amazing, little crispy, slightly uneven, almost melt in your mouth! (unlike a tortilla that came out of a bag!). i think i could probablty eat 2-3 tortillas alone! 1st trip was for brunch, and i ordered a breakfast burrito, filled with eggs, onions, tomatoes, and avocado....breakfast all wrapped up, i call it! i can't recall what i paid, but it was under $10, amazingly good deal for silicon valley for something that really filled up my tummy! 2nd trip was for early dinner, and i had a vegetarian burrito and hubby had a beef burrito. both came with side salad and we shared a bowl of chips with salsa. i barely made it thru 1/2 my burrito when my tummy started to signal fullness, but since i loved the texture of the tortilla, i forced myself to eat the whole thing! needless to say, i was full for the rest of the evening, no dessert, no evening snack, not even room for water/liquids! service here is very minimal as is the decor. this is a no frills, hole in the way establishment....order food, pay, get served, eat, go. but trust me, you won't be disappointed with the quality of food b/c it is absolutely one of the best mexican restaurants i've been to in silicon valley. remember...the tortillas! come for the tortillas! read more

Important to know before eating here...no authentic Mexican food is being served here. So if you want authentic just know everything here is topped with yellow melted cheese. If your in the mood for tasty Americanized food then this is your type of place! I had the enchilada plate and it was yummy. It was overloaded with cheese and came with a slightly sweet enchilada sauce. Overall looks like a nice family owned restaurant but definitely not serving traditional Mexican food. read more

Finally, we have found authentic Mexican food. Delicious ground beef tacos that are really hard to find. Lots of cheese. Great ground beef. My favorite is the more orangey salsa. They have more than one. Authentic beans. Authentic rice kind people and I had a Tamarind to top it all off. Highly recommended read more

We've been going here for years. Basic Mexican with friendly owner and staff. Great food and margaritas.

EXTREMELY DISSATISFIED!!! My family and culture come from Jalisco and this place's food and service is far from authenticity! The service was horrible! The man with the pony tail was rude, uninformative and lacks customer service and satisfaction! When I asked for extra lemons he resisted to give me any! The food looks messy, rushed, and packaged inconvenient to eat!! NEVER COMING AGAIN! read more

You know what they say, never shop hungry, so we had a pitstop at Jalisco before grocery shopping at Trader Joes. We got two tacos each, carnitas and carne asada. The menu was a bit overwhelming, they have a looooot of stuff. We placed the order and were told we'll pay when we receive it, which was unexpected. We got some chips and salsas on the house which were good, devoured them in a matter of minutes. I was honestly shocked when I saw the tacos, they were HUGE, and PACKED with meat. I kid you not, they were the size of my head. Both carnitas and carne asada were delicious!!! I could only eat one but they were kind enough to give me a box home, and hey, guess what, I now have leftovers for dinner. I honestly loved this place, great food, pretty cheap prices, very friendly staff and a big patio to enjoy your meal! Will definitely come back. read more

My husband and I have lived in Campbell for 20+ years and this is still our "goto" place for Me I am food. And we know this style cuisine as we spent almost that long living in La. Not only do we consider Henry (owner) part of our family, our kids were practically raised on his meals. Our teens even call it "Henry's" vs Jalisco when they want his comfort food.
