    Beef enchiladas.
    John P.

    Stopped into Jorge's on a Friday night, looking for good, easy dinner. Perfect. Busy at 6 pm, but they seated me pretty quickly. Without looking too much at the menu, I asked if I could have something with 4 beef enchiladas (3 would have been plenty) and a tamale appetizer. They made that work, and it was a good experience all around. One thing I thought was cool. I was alone, so I expected them to seat me at the bar (would have been fine) or one of the two tops (also would have been fine.) But the first thing that freed up was a four person booth, and that's where they sat me. I was an efficient customer, so I tried not to take up the space too long, but I thought that was very friendly. Highly recommend if you're up for a low key, family style mexican food place in Topeka.

    Lunch at Jorge

    Fun, lighthearted, feel. Absolutely loved our visit. Saw where Jorge's were listed as one of the top places to eat on a Reddit for him. Quite the hidden gem. Would totally go back, food was served hot. The staff was phenomenal and friendly. Everything looked clean and was a well lit space..

    Voted Best Mexican Restaurant in Topeka again! Jorge's will not disappoint. Best food Mexican food in town, fun & friendly staff, & great selection of food items sure to please everyone in your group. Always a fun atmosphere for the young & old& everyone in between. A place where you are always treated like family

    Enchiladas Rancheras
    Teresa H.

    Jorge's is a fairly New Mexican Restaurant, it is very small/quaint and does get busy. We came in around noon, we sat ourselves in a booth in the back. There were only a few open tables. A guy came by with chips and salsa fairly quickly. We sat for about 10 min before my mom asked if we could get waited on. The gal went to the back and asked who had our table(5). We nearly finished our chips and salsa before our server came out and asked if anyone took our drinks-which no one had. We placed our lunch order and food came out hot and fresh. I ordered The Enchiladas Rancheras(Cheese Enchiladas topped with pork, onion and bell pepper) My mom ordered the Pork Chilé Verde My dad ordered Chilé Colorado We all enjoyed our lunch.

    Amazing spot! Came…read morehere with a few friends for brunch and amazingly loved the food and vibes. We ordered a couple of different brunch items and left happy, stuffed, and pressed with our experience. Definitely recommend!

    I was excited to try Full Circle after looking at their menu on YELP…read more It was difficult to find a parking spot so we parked further away from the restaurant. When we arrived there were already several people waiting inside the front door area. There was no one in the front to give our name and number of persons in our group. I had to flag her down as she was running around clearing tables of dirty dishes and also running food to tables. Unfortunately, she was obviously overloaded in her responsibilities because not only did she not greet us, but had a not so friendly look on her face. It's a shame because it set the tone for our experience there. BTW never accept the front table near the front door on a very cold windy day! You'll freeze your butt off. Even with our table on the other side of the room, I could feel the cold air blowing inside the restaurant every time someone opened that door. The staff person took our food orders was friendlier. I did notice after she left that our table had no pre-set napkins and silverware like the other tables around us all had! This proved to be a major contention for me, because our food was served with no silverware brought to us. I got up and approached our server asking for napkins and silverware. She was about to bring water to another table. She replied she'll bring them after she drops off the water glasses elsewhere. I asked her to hand me the napkins and silverware as our eggs will be ice cold by the time she gets to us. Of course she was short on knives. She said this is the only clean ones I have for now. REALLY?!!!!! We had to flag down the front lady to get missing whipped cream for one of our French Toast orders and hot water for our hot tea order. Her non-facial expression made it so unpleasant like we were bothering her. Honestly I totally understand it's a Sunday and the restaurant is super busy, but at least hire enough people, train them to smile and be welcoming and make you feel good about being there. What was obviously missing was a busboy to clear and clean tables, refill water, coffee & hot water for hot tea. After I retrieved our missing silverware two of us tasted our eggs and they were cold. UGH!!! I hate eating cold eggs!!!!! The brisket Benny was not good either! The brisket was thinly sliced and it was way overcooked burnt looking too! On top of all that he later complained of his stomach being quite upset. I used the restroom and it was a mess. The trash can was overflowing where the used towels had fallen on the floor. It did not look clean at all. If bathrooms are not maintained, it makes you wonder how clean their kitchen is when they are cooking your food order?!!!!! I had to flag down our server for our check, who by the way never checked on us, not even once the entire time we were there. I would absolutely NEVER return here!!!!! The food that was served to us was subpar - cold eggs, missing whipped cream, and overcooked unappealing thinly sliced brisket, which resulted in a bad upset stomach.

The focaccia bread was sort of dense. The salad course was good but portioning was very small in my opinion. The first main was brisket and grits. It was average, needed salt and some veggie to cut thru super rich flavor. Second main was pasta and that was most disappointing course. Really didn't taste like much and tiny portion. Third course was the best, slightly above average. Good steak with potatoes and veggies. Decent portion and good flavors. The desert was absolutely disaster in my opinion. It was mint chocolate chip ice cream and sort of thin crispy dough covered in cinnamon sugar. First of all flavors did not match and ice cream was half melted by the time we were served. Overall food was just okay. The drinks: I got gin cocktail that was good and red glass of wine with Taylor's recommendation and I have enjoyed it both. My husband got wine pairing and that was good as well. The personal was super friendly and helpful. The ambiance was great and course meal experience was great but food disappointed.

The decore is dreamy and homey while still being upscale and a really catered experience. The employees treat you like family and it feels like a warm hug when you spend time here. If you're hesitant because of the price don't be. I've never paid for an expensive dinner that has been so "worth it" before such as this one. I'd pay double for it (but please don't raise the price ) I love you Saltwell. As a token of my gratitude here is a haiku. Saltwell season well A delight to my tummy Cozy homey time I also wanna give them a shoutout for all the great things they're doing on social media and highlighting other small businesses. Also we got engaged here and they made it so magical!
