Welcoming and accommodating staff from the time you walk in until the time you walk out satisfied. Even though they're working in a small space, you won't feel like it because they don't rush you and everyone has been so patient to answer questions about dishes on the menu. This menu has the most unique tres leches cake slices because they have more than one flavor but they often sell out! :-) So get there early if you want to try their pistachio tres leches cake or their café (coffee) flavor, they're both very good! Their homemade drinks like their cold horchata and cold Jamaica are worth the trip too

Everything came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. I didn't get a chance to try the drinks this time, but they looked amazing. There was a couple there when I arrived, and they told me the drinks were fire, so I'm definitely coming back for that. Overall, I'm really looking forward to coming back again. This spot is so good!

Stopped by Takito Holic while in the area and tried the birria meal, chips and guacamole, and a…read moresteak street taco. My wife had the same, except she went with the chicken taco. Overall, the experience was solid. The consomé had good flavor, definitely one of the highlights, but felt like it was just missing that one extra layer of richness or spice to really push it over the top. Still, enjoyable. The birria meat was super tender, which we appreciated. Only downside? The cheese. There was a lot of it. Not a dealbreaker, and some folks might love that, but I personally would've liked the meat to shine a bit more instead of being smothered. Chips and queso were solid, and the tacos were satisfying. Cozy little spot near Midway, and the staff was friendly. Would I come back? Yeah, especially for a casual bite if I'm in the area again.

Jalisco has been a staple for myself for years…read more I used to work in the area and would typically go there after work at night to get my fix of Mexican food. It has been a while since I've been there but I believe they were a later night spot. Service has always been solid, people over the phones have been nice, and ultimately - the food has always been great. To me, great Mexican food always starts with great steak, and I wouldn't be coming here if they didn't have just that. Everything else falls into place after that. From decently sized burritos to hunger satisfying tortas, there is something for everyone here. The nachos are incredible and definitely something to share with someone as well from what I can remember. Can't beat a glass bottle of coke with a meal as well. I also remember how spicy the red salsa is too! Definitely a try if you're in the area :)

When the live band is not playing, they have music playing in the background. They have a bar and TVs throughout. Parking lot fills up quickly. The appetizer they serve is ceviche along with crackers and tostadas. It was good. They have an extensive menu. I ordered the carne al carbon and hubby ordered the steak and shrimp fajitas. The steak was juicy and tender and the guacamole was fresh. Fries came with my entree as well. They were good. Hubby enjoyed his entree as well. Drinks are really good. This is a great neighborhood staple that gets packed on a Friday evening.

You'll find yourself paying $40 for a drink and $25 for a plate of seafood. It can seem backwards compared to a steak house or what not. The vibes are great on weekends catching a mariachi group coming in offering to play songs for money. And even if you don't pay for play,someone might and you can enjoy a song. I still don't know or even asked if they use fresh water or salt water shrimp. Most places like this use fresh water but charge salt water prices(you just have to ask/hopefully they're honest). The shrimp empanadas were ok. I wouldn't order again. The paella is alright nothing to brag about and very soggy. The champuzon was ok. Some parts of the octopus was really rubbery(as id expect is probably frozen). Oysters just do not smell the best. Overall, not my worse place. I'd say stop by try it. Do not have the highest expectations. Be cautious of what you order in mind of freshness. Sauces/salsas were good.

Interior is a bit grungy but that's part of the character. The horchata is addictive and the burritos are still massive.

Anyone giving them more than one star should seriously evaluate the quality of food from other restaurants. I used to come here when I was younger, typically for a steak burrito, but I've stopped because their portions and pricing--especially for the quality--have gone completely downhill. I've given them ample opportunities, thinking they would change, but even as of yesterday (12/14/2025), it's still the worst Mexican burrito restaurant I've ever been to. Never again. BOYCOTT EL FARO. Nothing will change until they see customers stop coming in just for their drunken fix.
