When my order came out they brought me the combination plate w/rice & beans & the enchilada, lots of food! I told her I didn't order the combo, just the tacos , She gave me attitude and said if I don't want it to take it back throw it away I didn't want the food thrown away, so I went ahead and took it; after that she never came back to our table they sent another lady initially, when we got there, they had chips and salsa , our chips finished so we ordered more chips, the bill came, they charged us for those chips; I was disappointed in the service, and I would've also liked to been told that there was an extra charge for additional chips + credited me for her error with my food; after all she gave me the combo, even though I didn't really finish the rice or the beans which were bad; if you call her, be specific and ask questions, I also forgot to take a picture of the white enchilada, which was very tasty!

Came here when it was super hot, and all we wanted was food and chill back in the a/c of my aunt's timeshare. After waiting soooo long at the nearest grocery store for food, I knew this night was going to be bad, especially with the experience at the grocery store. So I told my husband I needed to find another place to revive the night, and like I've said before, when you need help, YOU YELP! Upon checking out Mexican food spots, Tacos Los Olivarez was one of the businesses that were on the search results, and what drew me to it was the number of reviews, stars, and how the place looked. At first, I thought it was a little hole in a wall, but when my maps told me I arrived at my destination, I was a bit confused because it was an abandoned car dealership with a small taco truck right at the corner. What makes this place extraordinary and makes me want to come back whenever I'm in town is the fact that, despite the location, the business is run from a small truck with 6 tables, and the best customer service I've had in a while! The gentlemen in front of the car were greeting customers as if they were in a restaurant, which I've never encountered until today. The business felt very welcoming and on top the food was way better than the markets inside the grocery store! Definitely recommend this place!

The worker was so friendly, welcoming, and the whole experience felt very authentic. I was really hoping we'd be able to find this food truck again this year, and I was so happy to see it was still there. My fiancé ordered the al pastor burrito, and I got two mulitas. Everything was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. You can really taste the quality and care put into the food. If you're in the area, I definitely recommend stopping by. We'll absolutely be back every time we can!

The street tacos were tasty, absolutely bursting with fillings. Make sure to add salsa on top though as it does not come with any inside. CHILE RELLANOS: Tasty but flavor was a bit light for the sauce. The chile was absolutely stuffed with cheese which was great but the breading was a little too thick for me. I also had half of the tater tots from my friends' breakfast burrito. They were fried well but a bit unseasoned. All in all, a nice place to stop at for a quick meal!

Obviously not a popular lunch spot but maybe that would mean we'd get great service! First impression , the place is neat but kinda shoddy on the outside. We were met with a very strong "old" smell on the inside. Perhaps mildew or mold issues? Darkish interior but seemed neat. It looked like 1 person handling all the front waitressing and cashiering. She was polite and relatively quick with our order of nice cold beer in a frosted glass. A positive sign and the food arrived relatively quickly. Again we were the only patrons that we saw. The chili relleno was meh. Absolutely nothing special . Perfect match to the meh cheese enchilada. Beans were not our cup of tea. Much too blended. No texture or flavor at all. The taco salad with chili Colorado was equally as underwhelming. There was a decent amount of chili in my salad. Sadly it was horrible. Tasted old , dry and mushy. Quite a unique combination of textures and flavors that were not good. Decent sized but could have done with a lot more fresh vegetables. Perhaps added cheese or maybe elote? Really needs work. I have read all the fantastic 4 star reviews and just don't get it. Maybe it's a better fit for the Indio nightlife and not the daytime crowd

The Real Deal: Like Sunday at Tio's…read more If you're looking for a "fusion" taco with micro-greens and a side of existential dread, keep driving. But if you want a meal that feels like a warm hug from a relative who's slightly disappointed you haven't visited more often, welcome to Jalisco Restaurant in Coachella. The Atmosphere: Family Values & Smoke Walking into Jalisco isn't like entering a business; it's like walking into Tio JP's backyard. That nostalgic aroma of hard work and seasoned grills immediately greets you. It's a throwback to being a kid, watching your tios hover over the fire, treating every flip of the meat like a sacred ritual. There's no "new-age hype" here--just the perfected craft of a family that knows exactly what they're doing. The Heavy Hitters: Tripas & Cabeza Whether you're a "seasoned veteran" of Mexican street food or a nervous newbie, you have to commit to the Tripas and Cabeza. The Texture: The Tripas are cleaned and cooked to that elusive, crispy-yet-tender perfection. The Vessel: Whether you tuck them into a taco or go big with a burrito, it's a masterclass in traditional cooking. The GOAT (Literally): The Birria Let's get one thing straight: most places are out here serving "beef seasoned with birria spices" and calling it a day. Don't be fooled. This is the real deal. We're talking authentic goat meat, slow-cooked using the De La Torre family recipe straight from Jalisco. It's rich, it's tender, and it carries the weight of generations. It's the kind of flavor you can't replicate with a "modern twist." The Refreshment: Homemade Chavelas You're going to need something to wash down that Menudo or those wet burritos. Their homemade Chavela recipe is the MVP here. For the Modelo Negro fans: It adds a dark, savory depth. For the Michelob Ultra drinkers: It gives that crisp finish a spicy, citrus kick. The Verdict Jalisco Restaurant is one of the valley's originals for a reason. It's honest food for people who respect the process. In a world of trendy "reimagined" Mexican food, Jalisco reminds us that the original recipes never needed fixing in the first place. Go for the food, stay because you feel like family.

Appears to be a popular locals place as there were several workers sitting down for lunch. Certainly not a picture perfect place but that was just fine. The pass thru window had charming signage above the window with all the meats and combinations explained in English and Spanish. Very helpful for us gringos. And wow! They have a very good assortment of meats. Hard working waitresses kept busy ! Cold modelo started the meal perfectly. Chili relleno plate and birria burrito soon followed. Rice was nice and fresh. Beans very puréed and not quite as good as I would expect. Entrees were so-so. With plenty of Mexican restaurants around we will keep trying them out! But I suspect this place will be just fine.

I ordered four tacos for $1.50 each so total of six dollars for four tacos. Thinking rice and beans wouldn't be that much. I decided to order rice and beans. And a Mexican Coca-Cola. I was done to see my bill for $18.48. There is no signage about the cost of rice and beans nor the cost of the soda. So after looking into it. I realized four dollars for the rice four dollars for the beans and four dollars for the soda so technically for rice and beans in a soda it came up for $12 +6 dollars for the four tacos. This is unbelievable. I definitely will not be coming back if this is how they charge customers. I asked for a menu and I was told there was no menu to look at the prices. Tacos were good because of the tortillas. But the meat was OK very small amount of meat by the way. This is not worth $18.48. Not to mention the service was very put off by me asking about the cost of the rice and beans.
