The food was good. The server 1991 was not. The waitress that was working the floor with him ran circles around him helping her patrons. She even came and picked up our credit card and said she would find our waiter. He did have a table of 8 come in but, it wasn’t until we had been ignored pretty much the whole visit.

I visit this restaurant frequently, and I recommend it for all the people who like the Mexican food. The place is big and has three areas, and a bar. One of the areas is outside and it is great during summertime. The food is good and priceless, you can enjoy many plates for under $10. The staff is usually kind and fast. I don’t have complaints about this restaurant, so if you are in Southern Illinois, near to Anna, you can enjoy a good Mexican food here.

We were seated immediately. The waitress that seated us failed to tell the young ladies waiting tables that she seated us. The waitress was running around crazy trying to keep up. After waiting 40 min and still hadn’t even taken our drink order we stopped her. She apologized and took our drink order and our food order. We didn’t wait anytime before our meal was served. And it was served warm. Not hot! But warm. Usually fajitas come out sizzling. No not this time. It was as if it an been put in a microwave. We ate. Didn’t complain. We got our check and left. Did give the waitress her tip. One thing I know for sure is they don’t pay her enough. Not for what she was doing by herself. And not sure I will ever go back. There will be new Mexican restaurant opening up in town soon. Pretty sure they will get my business before El Jalapeno does. Went back to El Jalapeno for dinner with dad for Father’s Day. Food and service much better. Picture shows what’s left of my tamale dinner. It was really good.

I have always enjoyed eating here. I find the menu to always have something that sounds good to eat and different. Excellent lunch menu available with reasonable prices. I Would recomend any of the fajitas or the 10″super burrito in particular if you are very hungry. If ya like your dish hot order red tomatillo hot sauce. I also recommend trying their mixed drinks such as a michela beer cocktail or a margarita.

We went to enjoy a family dinner and they were so nice! She noticed we hadn’t been waited on and came to take care of us. We ended up getting free drinks, cheese dip and desert. We always enjoys going there and tonight proved how they care about their service. Letting us have a great dinning experience.

Had chkn fajita taco salad last weekend. What a disappointment. Portion was reasonable, but the flavor… there was no flavor. No Mexican spice, no fajita seasoning, no flavor whatsoever. My fajita chicken tasted like chkn boiled n water. Tried drowning my food n salsa to get the Mexican taste but it too lacked n flavor. One perk is kids under 18 can have free slushy drink, and the white cheese dip is good.

Great atmosphere, good beer selection and very friendly service, but I’ve got to be honest, the food was just ok. Got the fajita salad and the steak had no flavor, and the tostada shell was more rubbery than crispy. The guacamole was too oniony and didn’t have any lime in it. I’ll give it another shot, but was hoping the food would be better. Great outdoor seating area though.
