I had forgotten how big and tasty their margaritas (5/5) were. I'm glad I ordered one. I ordered the carne asada (4/5) and my wife got the enchiladas verde (4/5). Their refried beans (5/5) and rice (4/5) that accompanied both our dishes were delicious. Portion sizes are very large so bring your appetite.

The fajitas were of decent quantity. We actually had left overs for the next day dinner. Complimentary chips, salsa, and bean dip. Happy hour, but only 25¢ off of bottled beer?!?! No thanks; I am going to the Garage Tap room next! See my other review. Ambiance - Good size location. Main dining and bar area. Cool decor, see pictures. Clean restrooms. Service - 5 stars, from the door greeter to the waiters. They checked on us often. Price - $40 + generous tip. Overpriced for what we got. Well if it was NOT over-salted, then it would have been reasonable. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success.

We wanted to make reservations for dinner on a Thursday but no one answered the phone. We decided to head over to the restaurant a few minutes before we planned to dine with friends only to discover they weren't open and a hand lettered writing on the door said they were closed Thursdays and Sundays. We did return the next evening, now knowing that they would be open on Friday. The restaurant shares an entryway with a popular bar. It was amusing watching people enter the main door and then turn one way or the other to enter a business, only to realize they want the other door. I saw a few families with little kids start towards the bar and then turn to the restaurant. Groups in motorcycle jackets did the reverse. A signboard at the entrance to the restaurant invites customers to choose a table and then help themselves to chips and salsa. My husband and I split an entrée and it was more then enough for the both of us. Portion sizes are generous. The food was very good. Much better than Casa Ramos or Puerto Vallarta. If you want Mexican food in Mount Shasta, stay away from those chains and go to La Perla for a much better meal at reasonable prices to boot. We enjoyed the background music, with songs from the likes of Fleetwood Mac, Paul Simon, The Proclaimers.

We had adobada, carne asada, and carnitas, along with rice, beans, and a variety of salsas. Everything was delicious, and they were also able to accommodate our vegetarian guests with their own tacos, which we really appreciated. Edgar was super friendly, organized, and easy to work with. He made the whole catering piece so easy on us, which was especially appreciated with everything else going on with a wedding! We were so busy running around and talking to everyone that we probably wouldn't have gotten a chance to eat, but Edgar actually came out and made sure we got a plate. That little extra bit of care meant a lot to us. The food and service were excellent, especially for such a reasonable price. Our guests loved getting fresh tacos right off the grill, and it was such a fun addition to the reception. We'd absolutely recommend Taqueria Jalisciense for events in Klamath Falls!

We asked to sit on the patio and it was perfect and pretty with flowers. The music was loud and we asked them to turn it down and they did so promptly and the music was a great accompaniment. They brought out chips and salsa which we devoured. The salad was not your average boring salsa. It had flavor and originality. Quesabirria tacos are my favorite food and so my husband agreed to eat some since it comes with 3. I did ask for the consommé as well. DELICIOUS!! The flavors were an explosion of celebration in my mouth!! The cheese was that perfectly melty and tasty Mexican cheese I love and the meat was savory, hot and tender. They tacos were so fresh and hot that I had to wait to eat them for a bit. The fresh cilantro, lime and rice was a perfect addition. M husband got the carne asada tacos, and it was also super fresh and delicious. My only non-positive is that the margarita was too sweet and maybe used a sweet and sour mix rather than just triple sec and lime with a hint of agave. The staff was soooo friendly and also let us know what was in the consommé that made it so special. If we had stayed here longer we would have gone back for the chilaquiles for breakfast! Thanks for an amazing meal and friendly service!
