8 PM on a Friday is quiet here, walked right in, ordered and food came out pretty quick. Staff were busy the whole time, no laziness there which is great to see. Tonight I had the KCC Burrito. It's like a fajita and a Cali burrito hooked up on a quesadilla and wrapped themselves in it like a warm cheesey blanket. Every bite of tortilla has the cheese, the fries, though not crispy, weren't a distraction or overwhelming. The onions and peppers were great flavor additions to the guacamole and sour cream. The carne asada here is a nice thin strip cut, so it's got a great texture in the chew, flavorful and tender. This burrito is juicy! Do not try to eat this in your lap, in the car or on the couch, you WILL drip. The sweat from the peppers and onions get all the flavor juices flowing, great in your mouth, not on your pants. Definitely going to be a local burrito I come back to when I just want something I already know is going to be good. read more

Really good California burrito and one of my favorite taco shops. I come here pretty often and always leave satisfied.

I love this place! Brian needs a raise. I got my food at 8:45 pm and said sorry for getting my food so late then he smiled and said "no it's totally okay. We don't close until 8:50. Such awesome workers who deserve the world. Thank you! read more

I've never been disappointed in the food, the service, or the restaurant and its cleanliness. The Fish taco is SO good and affordable. My husband ordered the pollo asada burrito. We were both very happy with the Taste, the hot sauce selection, The hot carrots, and the servings were so very generous. We're stuffed with leftovers for $22! Awesome. read more

Listen to the other review about the terrible customer service. Im disappointed and shocked. I called to place a to go order and inquired about the price of my order since he quoted me one amount was going to charge me almost double of what he quoted me. When I told him to instead please just cancel , he hung up on me. So rude and insane! Who hangs up on a customer?! Please do yourself a favor and don't come here. read more

Dude answering phone needs to learn better phone skills. Asked about a food item and how much? Didn't offer a thing or communicate beyond that. Very poor representation of the restaurant. read more

Better service and more respectful for veterans. Management unable to help customers

Best fast Mexican food in the area. Only thing wrong with this place is that there's no drive through, 5 stars!

We taught about Tacos for lunch and referred to Yelp for a decent place to obtain them and found Jilbertos on Margarita near the East Cafe. The place was clean inside and the order came out quickly. We ordered the following food items: - 2 large fish tacos - 2 mini pollo tacos Everything was good. The tortillas and the veggies that came with them were all fresh and crunchy. The fried fish was tasty but a little small and thin for the large category. The chicken, although considerably favorable, lacked the seasoning but came out okay with the sauce. This place is not that bad at all. read more

Didn't follow directions and when you get takeout and eat it away, you aren't coming back. Details are everything! They even wrote no potatoes on my burrito and it was loaded and wrong burrito! Epic Fail on a simple request. read more

Definitely not the same as the location near the Promenade Mall in Temecula. The burrito was not as filled and their salsa bar had less items. The chile verde was good but again not as much as you get at the other location. I tried this location due to traffic and if I really had to go here I would but it wouldn't be my first choice. read more

Meh. I really think I didn't understand what I was ordering, perhaps. Located in a little strip mall in the corner. My chicken chimichanga was not good. It looked good before I cut into it. It was massive! The inside was best described as soupy. Not what I was expecting, it leaked it's soup juices everywhere. The tortilla itself was really good. The chicken wasn't bad, pretty flavorful, and tender. But along with the other textures inside I found it unpleasant. Like I mentioned, maybe someone else would really enjoy it, but I did not. Rice and beans really were delicious, delectable! Perfectly cooked. I wish I would've gotten portion sizes of those instead. My husband and I also shared a cheese quesadilla and it was really good, I would definitely get that again. High marks for that one. Employees were nice and our food was prepared pretty quick. read more

This place is legit. Food here is BOMB and prices are good. Should be rated way way way higher. Definitely a hidden gem Too many haters throwing out 1 reviews cause they accidentally got their order wrong - mistakes happen. You will not be disappointed going here. read more

We ordered from here using Uber Eats and thought we were ordering from the Jilbertos at the Mall. This turned out to be a major mistake. These Jilbertos can't be related and if they are this Jilbertos is in fact the ugly stepsister. I ordered my wife the shredded chicken burrito as I would at the other Jilbertos and it was a diaper drenched in diarrhea! Graphic I know but they put unwanted beans in with 6 day old chicken. She could not eat it. My carne asada burrito resembled a rolled taco but the rolled taco would have tasted better. Just meat and onion and the meat was not good. The fish taco was nothing more than mush and some sort of sauce. Gross! Don't know what is going on with this Jilbertos but someone in the family needs to discipline them, stand them in the corner or make them write on the blackboard 100 times they will not serve shitty food to paying customers. Yelp world: stay away from this Jilbertos. Go to the one near the mall. That is my best recomendation! One star because there is not an option to give zero. read more

+Chilaquiles good, flavorful, and real spicy -Asada tough, got a lil bone shard on my first bite, cheese not melty Middle of the road. Basically interchangeable with Alberto's. read more

Fast, flavorful Mexican food! I've ordered a few different plates and combos from here and the quality of the food is always the same, great consistency. As usual I had to try the chilaquiles and I've got to say theirs do not disappoint, but be warned they are a little spicy. I have also ordered from their catering menu for a party and everyone loved the food, so much, that we hardly had any left overs. Jilbertos is my go to for dependable Mexican food with just the right amount of flavor. Great food, descent prices, clean establishment, plus all the skater kids eat here after a session at the park. Can't go wrong with that. Next time your in the mood for some Mexican cuisine, give Jilberts a try. read more

Man I really hate leaving a bad review for this location because the food is very good, especially their breakfast burritos. Every time I come in the morning their sign says they open at 8am, it's currently 8:20 and the lights are off and no one is home with the doors locked. In my world if you are not 10 minutes early to work you are late. I get if you are occasionally late but EVERY SINGLE TIME I come here at 8am they are closed. Effing annoying. Change your sign then. read more

As we came in this place was dark and very cold almost like being outside! The hard shells tacos we order with carne asada that in Spanish means grilled meat but it was actual boiled, over cooked, chewy and cold! The sides of rice & beans were also not warm... we ordered a burrito & the outside of the tortilla was warm but all of the ingredients inside refrigerator cold... the refried beans were so salty! The meat & the rice insipid, they served us fast but I would rather wait a bit longer but have hot and well prepared food! Just unpleasant, also unfriendly, dirty especially the bathroom was a mess and lots of ceiling tiles broken, just would not recommend this place to anyone and we will definitely not be going back. read more

Pretty much the best Of the Jilbertos. Nicest people, too. Order this: Machaca burrito with beans (on the inside), wet with green sauce. They'll top it with two types of cheese. Don't change a damn thing. Thank me later. You're very welcome. read more

Ordered 2 crispy beef tacos and a side of refired beans at 7:45 pm. Picked up my order at 8pm. The tacos were the worst I ever had! The taco shell was STALE and there was little meat and no cheese. The beans were RUNNY like soup and cost $3.99 for a half if a cup. I can buy a can of refried beans for .50 cents at Albertsons. As soon as I left the taco shop they closed up at 8:10pm when they have it stated on the internet they stay open until 10pm. FALSE ADVERTISEMENT! Stay away and go to TACO BELL where the food is better and you get more value for your money. This place is AWFUL and for what you pay, you are getting cheated out of your hard earned money. The food is awful! read more

F*** all the Karen's who think they are rude!!! Bomb ass food, bomb ass customer service and bomb ass social distance. All these impatient Karens think they are the only customers and deserve the workers undivided attention. Wait your turn dumbies read more

I often crave the Chile Relleno burrito from Jilbertos. It is my definition of good comfort food and hits the spot when I partied a little too much the night before. My husband likes the huevos con chorizo plate and my son likes the breakfast burrito. It is a great option when I feel like having Mexican food delivered for breakfast. read more

Are you looking for the best cali Mexican food in San Diego/Riverside? You may want to go somewhere else. Are you looking for reasonably good Mexican food that consistently hits the sweet spot? This is your spot. I've had their Cali burritos, Carne asada fries, and super nachos. I love their hot sauce (even tho you need to ask for extra) and it's a solid 8/10 every time for me. Their fries are crisp (not soggy), the guac has good flavor, and their Carne asada is flavorful (not blown away again but consistently good). While new to Temecula area (originally from San Diego), glad I found a strong Mexican food taco shop. read more

Great food and always excellent service! Ambiance is very inviting but I usually order take out, but it's always clean!

Jilbertos never disappoints. The food is always good and I don't mind paying the price for it. The only disappointment this time was the front staff- she was not very courteous and seemed bothered to provide me with the extras for my food such as carrots, sauce, utensils. read more

Jilbertos Mexican Food - Menu - Fast Food Near Me - Temecula, California

Our food was disappointing to say the least, perhaps the empty parking lot reflects the food quality. Our previous experiences were good , I'm not sure if they changed cooks or inferior ingredients but the food was bland. It is unfortunate that the food was bad, now we have to find another place. Our order included, rolled tacos, carne asada fries, shrimp plate, chile verde plate, California Burrito, Torta and bean cheese burrito. The guacamole did not even taste like avocado, it was some odd taste; the rest was just bland, we had to add condiments to make edible. read more

Food was actually pretty good. But never under estimate how bad service can make the food taste a little different. The cashier, young kid, was very short and seemed like he hated his job. My 10 year old daughter even looked up at my wife with a "what's wrong with him?" look. My burrito also came with the wrong meat...and I'm going to assume it wasn't the kitchens fault at this rate. The kicker? Everything is an extra charge....we literally had to pay $1.50 extra for Carne Asada? That's a normal option for meat in like 99% of the Mexican spots. read more

I heard a story that people sell this Mexican restaurant Carp that they feed the public instead of a quality white fish. Stay away I'm contacting fish and game also. read more

It's currently 7:15 am and it's still not open. The sign clearly says it opens at 7 but it's still closed. Why say you open at a certain time when you're not going to be open at that time. I wanted to try to grab something to eat at home on my way home from work and I'm extremely disappointed. read more

Would give this place 0 stars if I could. Absolutely horrible customer service. I called because I wanted to order an item that takes a while to prepare ahead of time, before going there to pick it up. Was placed on hold 2 times for over 10 minutes each before having to hang up both times because no one took me off hold. I went there instead (only live 1 minute away) and when I got there there was nobody in line and the cashier was just standing there on her personal cell phone. Now for the food: food was definitely overpriced for the quality that you get. The order was bland and tasted watered down. Definitely would not recommend this place based on their terrible customer service and subpar food taste and quality. read more

Delicious food and super friendly staff. The restaurant itself isn't super fancy but I feel like that adds to it's hidden gem appeal. We ate here 3 days in a row and brought friends. read more

WOW. JUST WOW. GO anywhere else! After 40 minutes of waiting (it was definitely NOT busy). I was informed that 1 of my items was out of stock. Apparently they told another white guy this and thought it was me.... so racism aside. I request that they refund that part of the order and just give me the rest. They refuse. 5 min later they claim to have made my out of stock item from scratch.... surprise everything was ice cold, cheese not even melted, tortillas old as he'll, and nothing was edible. Then the nail in the coffin is I call to request my refund a second time and I'm argued with and given excuses that there was only 1 Cook..... there could have been 10 cooks but if no one cooks the food then it doesn't matter. Really wanted to like this place and love the other locations but this one is a forever avoid after this ridiculousness. read more

Just moved to Temecula from OC and this place is now down the street from us. We are so happy we discovered it. Authentic Mexican food that is fresh and not greasy. The Jamaica drink is delicious. Had the breakfast burrito and my husband had the carne asada burrito. So good. Can't wait to eat here again. Price is perfect too. It was fast and fresh. And the girl working was super nice and helpful. read more

Came in on a Friday for lunch for the first time. Place was pretty full. One guy working register and one cook. Noticed at least half the people didn't have food yet. Ordered 3 street tacos. Quick and simple...... 15 minutes later a few got their food. Guy that ordered before me took half his order that was done and left after waiting 20 minutes. One older gentleman that was seated told me he had waited over 20 minutes for his food. He didn't have a big order. It was just for him. ????? Food was fine. Salsa bar was fine. Wish it was a bit better experience as it's walking distance from my house but I think I'll make a little longer walk to a different taqueria in the area next time. Took me 30 minutes to get 3 tacos at lunch time. read more

My favorite taco shop in Temecula my favorite is the beef Flautas with rice N beans, yum!

Terrible food went in an hour before closing and watched them microwave our food in the foam container and the food melted to it. My burrito was cold because they didn't "cook" it long enough. Do not recommend this place. read more

Jilbertos Mexican Food - Cheese Enchiladas - Fast Food Near Me - Temecula, California

Came in for a phone order. Upon arrival, no one greeted me or acknowledged me. A simple "give me a moment" or "ill be with you in a second" would have been perfectly fine. The main issue was that whoever was at the register, kept constantly looking over at me standing right in front and got busy with another order, looked at me again and continued once again. Gave them the benefit of the doubt and waited 5 more minutes and not a single word. At this rate, just walked out instead with no food. Customer service sucks. First time here and didn't try a thing due to this issue. Never again. read more

We are regulars at this place and have always had good customer service. This past Saturday went in to pick up our order and decided to eat at the restaurant. We wanted to make sure we had time to eat there before they closed. We asked the girl behind the counter, who appeared to be busy on her phone, three times what time they closed. Finally she answered "10" in an angry tone of voice. After we finished eating, I went to fill my soda cup and accidently spilled a bit on the floor. I did not want anyone to slip. I then tried to get the attention of the girl (we were told her name is Paulina) working behind the counter. I was going to ask her for some paper towels so I could dry the floor myself. I said "excuse me, I spilled a bit of soda" no eye contact or response from Paulina. Again I said "excuse me, I spilled a bit of soda on the floor". Paulina then gave me a death ray look and said "I know!" My husband over heard and asked her if she was angry at someone. Paulina answered "no" then she dissapeared by going into the bathroom. We were shocked by her attitude and frankly, disrepectful behavior. My husband asked the cook "what is wrong with her, why are we being treated this way, is she angry at something?" and he said that is the way she is with all the customers. All we were trying to do was avoid an accident. Today, I called the restaurant to try and speak to a manager and spoke to someone named Jose. I asked him if it was possible to speak to the manager. Jose said that the manager does not have a regular schedule or a contact number. He asked why I wanted to speak to the manager. I told him that I had a complaint regarding rudeness and bad customer service. He became extremely rude and said "what are you going to do about it?" then he said he did not have time to talk to me and hung up on me. Needless to say we won't be going back there, ever! I have to give them a one star rating in order to post this review. Frankly the don't deserve even one star. read more
