The beef or steak fajitas was delicious. I love the rice. But they’re always busy. And you have to call their attention to order food. The first time we went here we have to wait in the line because there is no seats available so ended up leaving without ordering anything. Terrible. The bar people is the worst always laughing while we’re there looks like drunk.

The place was busy and I can see why. Great food, atmosphere and hospitality. The prickly pear lemonade was recommended for mixed drinks. Couldn’t help but munch on the complimentary chips and salsa while trying to decide on what I should order. I finally decided on the Chicken Milanese that came with cheese and refried beans, Spanish rice, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, guacamole, orange slices, and cabbage. Your choice of corn or flour tortillas and even both if you choose to do so. Second platter was the Chile Verde that came with with the same thing but they also gave a wedge of lime with it. After trying to finish my plate this stomach was now happy and I was ready for a nap. I look forward going back and trying a different platter knowing that the food is good along with an atmosphere that is laid back.

Love the beef fajitas, lots of bell peppers and onions and cooked perfectly. Got my fajitas with no rice, the refried beans are so good and topped with lots of yummy cheese. I like the way they prepared my takeout order, they put the sour cream pico and guacamole separate. Some restaurants don’t.

El Jardin is fantastic! Every time I visit this area, this is a stop I want to make. The portion sizes are amazing, the food is fresh, the flavor is awesome, the service is exemplary. It may very well be my favorite Mexican restaurant in CA.

This was a surprise when I first arrived they told me it would be a 20 min wait and we decided to stay, I asked if I was able to sit by the bar… I had to ask how we ordered because no one attended to us , she explained the she was the bartender and waitress so it was understandable. After a few minutes the manager came to our table and expressed his apologies for not being able to take care right away I really liked that. He also said he would take care of our drinks and gave us a beam dip to try, amazing by the way.

The service and food were excellent. I likes how they a few flour tortilla chips mixed in with the corn. I had the chili Colorado, which was some of the flavorful I’ve had. The bartender Patrick attentive and spot on. I definitely recommend this place and will be back when in town.

Best Mexican restaurant in Manteca. Have been dining here for a long time and have never been disappointed. I always get the same item every time which is Chicken Chipotle Enchiladas and it will be my order forever at this restaurant. I didn’t get the name of our server today, but he was amazing. Great job guys with the food and the service.

We haven’t been here in years. We started hearing people talking about this place and said we should go and visit. So glad we did. The place was packed but organized. Fairly large inside and they have a full bar.
