Stopped in for breakfast and asked the waitress if the Huevos Rancheros Chile Verde plate came with rice and beans. She said yes so I asked her to hold the rice and double the frijoles. I judge Mexican restaurants by the frijoles and corn chips. If you can't get that right..... The chips came out cold and stale, yesterday maybe, and the Pico de Gallo had little to no spice. Thank the Lord for Tapatio. My plate came out and it was just runny chile verde and beans. I asked where the Huevos Rancheros were as it was not under the chile verde as expected. Back to the kitchen where I believe some of the chile verde was removed to make room for the additional item. I should have had it brought out on a separate plate. lesson learned. The beans were authentic and tasty. My friends carne asada nachos looked great and filling. A bit of a dive with plenty of parking. Empty at 9am on a Thursday. I doubt I will return unless it's on a weekend to review the Menudo and pata. read more

I got the albondigas soup. It was delicious and well portioned. I hope to come back for the menudo.

This is our go to local Mexican restaurant! The staff (Raquel) is always friendly and quick! I have tried so much on the menu. I've tried plenty of food. But My favorite things to order are the birria, tacos gobanador, albóndigas, tapiquena, and pozole. Must try: oil chile if you like to spice up your meals! For breakfast: green chiliquiles! Plenty of parking! read more

Hairy menudo. Um is that normal. I didn't want to eat it anymore. Im sure that aint right. Service was excellent but I notice everyone was eating their menudo just fine. read more

This place was ok. Went with 2 others. They got the tampequeña and the Chile relleno and enchilada plate. I got the chilaquiles. They both thought the same. Just ok. Everything needed salt. And the salt shaker let 2 grains of salt out per 7 shakes lol. On top of that, the sodas were in a can. Get fountain drinks. Can't be that much and you'll make more in the long run. read more

Cocido de res very disappointed tiny little pieces of meat more fat no taste very bland corn tortillas were not hot like they usually are don't order this soup read more

Very good food! The service was pretty cool and attentive for sure. For my food I ordered guacamole, and two enchiladas combo, one chicken and one cheese with the side of beans and rice. The food was very good, hot and fresh! Made to order and they accommodate what you want in your guacamole. Very good guacamole and chunky :) The ambiance is not modern, family style restaurant with not too much opulence, but that doesn't matter. The food is delicious and good service! Oh yes the chips and salsa is good too! They have plenty of parking in their lot, and located downtown Azusa! I will definitely be a frequent flyer. -Marshay D. read more

This restaurant has been on my bucket list for a couple of weeks, and today, I wanted some Cocido soup while recovering from a head cold. I decided to finally try this place out. It's cute and small like a mom-pop traditional Mexican restaurant. The soup was incredible. This was the best soup I ever had at a Mexican restaurant. It was so good and flavorful with big chunks of hearty vegetables and tender beef. I ordered the Tilapia with refried beans and rice also and it was remarkable. I could not eat all of it due to me being full from the soup. I took the rest home. Our waitress, Raquel was impeccable. She went above and beyond our expectations with her excellent customer service. She was very welcoming, accommodating, and fun. My mom had the chicken and shrimp fajitas that were piping hot and with a delightful presentation. It was scrumptious. The chips, salsa, and flour tortillas were good too. Everything was made with love and quality ingredients. This is a great place for some good traditional-style homemade Mexican food. The menu is huge filled with many traditional Mexican dishes. They serve breakfast and alcohol too. I can't wait to return and try more food items. Note: Ample parking in the lot or on the street. The restaurant is located in the downtown Azusa area. read more

I got invited to eat with a family friend. She insisted on going here it was my first time so here we go. We ordered a Gordita, chicken tacos, mojarra frita and ceviche camarón. The tacos were dry and not much flavor. The Gordita and the mojarra looked decent dad eats everything so not sure. I had the shrimp ceviche tostada, it has been the worst I have ever tried. It's pico de gallo with chopped shrimp no flavor, no lime or even salt!! I asked the waitress for lime, it didn't set well with her. The place is a mom and pop shop. It's a bit crowded but it works. The service if you are their friend you get the attention otherwise, short questions and you won't get the same attention. read more

HANDS DOWN BEST MEXICAN FOOD IN THIS AREA! We have tried dozens of places and all leave us disappointed. Jessies's is top grade, top notch, delicious AND authentic. Weve had the beef soup (healthy portion tons of melt in your mouth fatty beef), menudo (huge portions of tripe, and bones with marrow), fajitas, tacos... we are so happy we finally found our go-to after so many years. We always pick up to go to eat comfy at home. Always a great experience. Go! read more

Very good service! Big meal portions at a reasonable price. Traditional Ambiance with friendly service..

Great Food and Service. Friendly atmosphere. The extensive Menu has everything you may want including a variety of soups and seafood. The fresh homemade tortillas are an awesome accompaniment to the meal. read more

I love their caldo de res. It comes with a side of rice, cilantro, onion, lemon, and your choice of tortillas. I love getting their tortillas de maiz because they're handmade. The size of the caldo is also generous and has a good variety of vegetables. They put corn, potatoes, carrots, cabbage, calabacitas, and chayote in it. I usually eat half the caldo for lunch and the other half for dinner. I normally call in the order, and it's ready within fifteen minutes. Their caldo de albondigas is good, too. I also like how they safely package the food for to-go orders. If you like spicy salsa, make sure to ask for their chile the aceite. It's smoky and spicy. Customer service is always great. You're greeted as soon as you walk in, and they take care of you fast. Come try a caldo today! read more

Found this gem on accident and so happy we did. Their food is far more flavorful than what you get up the street at Tolteca. I highly recommend their asada ,regular size tacos. I've had their pozole, bacon wrapped shrimp, and their carnitas. I'm gonna say my favorite is still the asada! Get some guacamole with the chips they bring you. It's fresh and lemony and delicious. You can play the music on the wall from your phone, have some iced cold modelo, some chips and guac with some delicious asada tacos, what else can u ask for? Come support this local business, you'll be glad u did. read more

Solid food and service, but small adjustments can make such a difference. Food: 4 stars Menudo - decent, but really needed the chili oil to make a difference. I didn't even know they had that option until I asked for something to make it more spicy and add flavor. Hand made tortillas was the best part. Chilaquiles con huevo, green sauce. GF said it had good flavor, but sauce was too salty so hard to eat. Carne asada - very tasty and hit the spot. Especially with the spicy red salsa. Salsas - spicy red and chili oil saved the day. Service: 4 stars Again, decent but waited a few times for water, bill, napkins. Basic stuff that they can work on but friendly. Price: 4.5 stars Pretty decent prices. The digital menu points back to Yelp and prices for delivery and in store looked the same which is a plus. May try them again using delivery and see if things improve. read more

I'm an any type of weather type caldo person.. I recently moved to Covina from Alhambra and exploring a lot of new spots, which aren't always a hit... I saw a photo of someone else's caldo and it called my soul - so I went and got caldo de res.. I typically die caldo de pollo since it's less frequent they mess it up... caldo de res... it's topically a hit or miss... and Jesse's was definitely a hit. Got a really good amount of meat, veggies and broth... I even took some meat home with rice, since it was too much... for the price paid and the portions delivered, you will not be disappointed in this place. Happy to say I'll be going back to try other delicious things! read more

Great little spot for good Mexican food. Menudo never disappoints. Very good service.

This is my parent's favorite restaurant so I'm here on an average twice a week. Good constant food, nice size portions. Its size, friendly staff, and little extras like made by hand tortillas, provide for a very intimate atmosphere. It's more like a visit to abuelita's house rather than a restaurant. read more

The only thing good here is the menudo and micheladas. Other than that I would definitely go somewhere else.

Just the way I like it...didn't taste like it had all the salt in the world..lol...I actually enjoyed drinking while not bloating up like a balloon and my rings tightening up on my fingers from the sodium that many micheladas have. I also had the Pozole which is very tasty , and the portion was just right! I will definitely be back read more

I enjoyed a nice afternoon meal at Jessie's. It is a local place. I had been looking for some good, authentic pazole to take to my friend who was very sick.

i had soup.... it was very good..., not too spicy, but just enough.... the chips were very good, too. i will be back.

Was a bit dissapointed in the service. We arrived around 1030 and took around 20 minutes for someone to take our order then we waiting another 45 minutes until we received our order. We did notice others that arrived after us receive their food :(. As far as our food it was okay, we got chilaquiles the salsa was a bit salty but not bad. We might give this place another shot. read more
