My favorite restaurant
by localatl
February 13, 2009
It is by far the best Mexican restaurant in the city. The chalupas and the burrito especial are my favorite entrees. Don't miss the cheese dip. My fiance and I went here on our first date and he is a loyal customer as well. They keep the chips coming, work the (sometimes a bit long) line very quickly, and the food is fabulous. Love this family owned gem.
- Pros: Cheese dip
- Cons: Sometimes you have to wait and it will be outside
Salsa that Punches You IN THE FACE!

All you need to know about this place is the salsa is delicious (and badass spicy) and the food hits the spot if you're craving mexican food.
You can read below to the reviews below that nitpicks the service, the wait time, and the lack of margaritas if you want but why? It's all contradictory. The service is "bad" because they try to get people in and out so the "wait" isn't that long. You don't have to let them rush you. And so what if the check is put in front of you before you're done eating - I, personally, like having it right there when I scrape off the last bit of the delicious salsa from the bowl and am ready to go. But that might just be me. You may like trying to flag down busy servers asking for your check (as they try to rush people in and out of their dinners).
- Pros: Deliciously Spicy Salsa
- Cons: Can be crowded, have bad service, and a long wait - but name a good, small restaurant that doesnt.
The Waffle House of Mexican

I know this place has been here for 29 years so they must be doing something right.... but the service is horrible. I like to eat my food and possibly order another drink before the check is put in front of me (it practically came with the delivery of the food). The server never returned to the table after that ... not even to bus the dirty plates we were finished with. The food is okay.. but I much prefer El Azteca just down the street and not in a strip mall. Not worth the 30 min wait to get in.
- Pros: decent food
- Cons: crowded, bad service, no margaritas!
Edible food but horrible service
by DCurran04

The food was okay, nothing special just average. I've had better food at chain Mexican places such as On the Border, El Azteca, Rio Grande, etc. They do not serve margaritas! What kind of mexican restaurant doesn't serve margaritas?! The service was awful! We ordered the queso dip and asked for NO jalepnos, it comes out with tons of jalepenos. My husband ordered a Modelo Negro, the server brought out a Dos Equis. The server dropped the food, two minutes later came to check on us, dropped the check (two minutes after we got our food) and never returned! Never came back to see if we needed another round of drinks, desert, or even to bus a dish! We will never go back.
- Pros: Kid Friendly
- Cons: No margaritas, long wait, bad service.
Food gets Two Thumbs Down, good service though

As I read the other reviews I can't help think, "Are we talking about the same place??" I ate here once and could hardly finish the meal. The food is horrible! I tried it again despite my first experience thinking I went on a bad night so I'd give it another try, but the food was even worse. The service is good and so is the beer. You can't mess up beer, by the way, they don't have a liquor license so margaritas aren't available. I would need a few of these to get through my next meal. I really can't comprehend why this place is so crowded. People are drawn to crowds and some how, the crowd has brainwashed their customers taste buds. I'm sorry to give such a harsh review, but basically, the food is not good. I won't be returning unless the kitchen steps it up, a lot.
- Pros: Good Service
- Cons: Horrible Food and large crowds

For Mexican, you can't beat Jalisco is Buckhead, or rather Atlanta. Some of the best service, friendly wait staff, greeeeat food. Would eat there 3 times a week or more.
- Pros: Prices, Service, Location
- Cons: Crowded, but worth the wait if there is one
Fast & Good! Peachtree Battle Lunch!
by jaymaygm

We have been going here for so many years, I can't remember how many. Just good honest, basic Mexican fare, and is it ever fast. Many of our neighbors have their names on little brass markers, for their favorite seats. No fancy gourmet preparations, the combo's are on target, and so are the prices for lunch!
- Pros: Good Basic Combo's! Great Lunch Prices!
- Cons: Get's Very Busy At Lunch!
Miss it So Much!!

I have moved from Atlanta to Florida and miss this place so much! Very friendly and GREAT food! The salsa is the best anywhere, hands down. Great prices and very family friendly. Will go back when visiting without question.
- Pros: Everything
- Cons: Nothing
Best Quick Lunch in the are by Rachel E. at InsiderPages

I love to go to Jalisco's for lunch or for a quick after work meal. They are quick, very reasonably priced and the food is solid. It comes fast and hot. Also, is is super casual, so no need to ever dress up.
If you want a great meal, in a laid back atmosphere, then Jalisco's is a great pick.
Also, it can be pretty busy between 12:00 and 1:00 - so you might want to get there a little early or just a little late.
