    Chimichanga platter
    Juliette M.

    Always love this place everytime we visit Navarre! The food is always quick, fresh, and delicious. The service is fast as well. It has lots of indoor seating and is perfect for big families/parties. I got the chimichanga platter and it was the perfect portion. My entire family loved their dishes!

    The first time we came was a pleasant experience and the food was really good. The inside is decorated really cute and their 2 for 1 beer specials are a great deal. We went again last night and our server was rude. He rushed us the entire time, acted annoyed any time we asked for something, and the food wasn't good. I had the enchilada plate, the tortillas were hard, the chicken was dry, and it came with barely any rice and beans which is weird. My husband's meal barely came with any rice and beans as well. I was in the middle of eating my dinner when the server came and asked if he could remove my plate, to which I had to explain I was still eating... he scoffed and then he came by a few minutes later with our bill even though we didn't ask for it. My friend actually then asked for another drink so he brought her that drink and a new printed out bill. We were under the impression this a sit down service type of restaurant but it seems he was trying to get us out so he could get the next table. Big piece of advice -- don't rush your patrons that are sitting at the table trying to enjoy a Friday night dinner just because you want the table freed up.

    The food and drinks are always stellar here. You can tell that they use the freshest ingredients, and prepare each dish to your request. The cocktails are wonderful and the service is friendly and top-notch.

    El Jalisco in Navarre is brand new and has been awesome! They are less than a month open and I have picked up Togo a couple of times and dined in! They have kind and awesome customer service!!! Plus, they offer military discounts! The ambiance inside is super nice! My fav part tbh! I love the open layout and the booths are HUGE! The decor is very modern and the vibe gives upscale Mexican food, especially compared to others in the area! It's a Great spot for parties. When I say huge booths, I mean like 10 ppl per booth maybe! The salsa has good flavor and has a spicy kick! Kind of unexpected and I'm glad it was there bcs I kept coming back for more! I enjoy their "create your own combo." It's great 3 for $15! The guacamole tostada is very generous and filling. The shredded chicken quesadilla is okay and the chile con carne is delicious! It's pretty salty, but delicious if you pair with your guacamole tostada. The El Jalisco Fajitas were kinda disappointing to me. I might be basic but I LOVE that sizzles appearance. The beef pieces were small and I felt like I needed a lot more flavor?! Like some type of special salsa or cilantro or something? Felt like something was missing every bite. I don't think I would get these here again. The Fish tacos were also not a hit for me. It's like chopped up pieces of mahi mahi and it needs some type of crunch. Very mid. Overall, I think this place is awesome! I would stick with the create your own combo.

    El Jalisco Mexican restaurant in Navarre, soon to be a wonderful addition in Milton by Publix!!! Food and drinks were amazing and delicious!! Everything is yummy!! Everything you order will be great!! Service was perfect and ambiance well, we are by the coast.

    2 for 1 margaritas

    Food was excellent, service was on point. My only complaint is my husband and I had to share a single salsa for a whole basket of chips.

    Good food, quick service. Our waitress couldn't really understand us but did well with getting help when she needed it. The place was pretty clean. They could use some things to help with sound and echo. The caso portion was small but over all the food was delicious!

    The food was just ok, nothing special. If you like Tex-Mex you will like it here. The service was great. Atmosphere was nice. The corn on my husbands plate was old with brown spots, they shouldn't have put it on the plate. I wouldn't recommend the ground beef, it was very mushy and tasteless. Prices were high for the quality of food. Maybe it was a bad day.

The prices are more reminiscent of LA but the quality of ingredients was great. The service, sufficiently attentive. The view? Omg spectacular. Parking is simple. It's tucked in Navarre Beach which is a quiet, peaceful place. We sat outside and had it to ourselves because it was hot. The indoor was cute though. Nice high, beam vaulted ceilings and very fun scallop shell light fixtures. It felt like a beach house but nonetheless we opted for the fresh air overlooking the gulf. We had shade although they also have sofa seating in the sun. The salad was the best I've had here locally. Reminiscent of a CA salad and I deeply missed that. The pork belly was wild! A thick generous portion. My husband devoured it. It was very good, although he found it slightly overdone, I did not as pork should be cooked thoroughly. I am looking forward to returning here. It's one of the best meals we had here, right on par with Jackson's & the Grand Marlin.

    Cute spot, open air eating indoor or out. We were seated immediately and served quickly. Decided to…read moreorder a whole bunch of appetizers cuz they all looked so good and nothing disappointed. The lobster nachos have a seasoned lobster all over them along with tons of veggies. Crab cakes are grilled and the sauce is amazing. Loaded fries were okay. The wings though really really good with the stinging honey garlic. We have medium as well and both were above and beyond. Got a Caesar salad with shrimp have that blackened. The shrimp are perfectly cooked and very well spiced. The crab cakes were so good we ended up getting another one. We spent $120 on all of that and 3 margaritas a Coke and a sweet tea. At the margaritas are very very good!

    Decent food, unhygienic establishment, poor service. More of a dive bar vibe…read more I called beforehand to ask if the restaurant had covered outdoor seating as it was on and off raining and we had a dog. The women who answered, who I believe is the bartender as she was the one answering the phones when we eventually ate at the bar, answered with unnecessary sass. It was a Saturday evening; they were moderately busy. We had to wipe down the bar ourselves since it was so messy. The couple that came in after us had to do the same. As we were waiting to be served, we witnessed the bartender be standoffish to a woman who was picking up a large to go order. The kitchen missed part of the order and the bartender was rather rude, acted like it was a major hinderance to correct the mistake the kitchen made. Didn't apologize or anything. I had a beer, my mom had a "margarita". I put that in quotations because they don't serve liquor. They serve wine based liquors, which must be a work around to avoid having to get an actually liquor license. Awful drink. She had two sips and couldn't stomach it anymore. Tasted like straight sour mix. Our food was decent. I got the combination platter with blackened mahi and grilled shrimp. Mahi was dry. Grilled shrimp was good. Sweet potato fries were okay, nothing special. Plastic utensils. My moms food, alligator gumbo and lobster quesadilla, was okay. Alligator gumbo didn't come with rice, as shown in original picture. Lobster quesadilla had maybe 4 pieces of lobster in it. My mom ordered the loaded fries instead; hard to mess up fries covered in cheese and bacon. Nothing special there. During my meal I placed my empty water cup by the edge of the bar for a refill. After 10 minutes I finally had to ask the bartender directly for a refill; should be a common sense thing to refill and empty water cup in the middle of someone's meal. She grabbed my cup by sticking her finger directly into my cup. Disgusting. Wouldn't come back. With how gross the bar was and the hygiene habits of the staff directly in front of me, I don't want to know what goes on behind closed doors. I know it's a dive bar, but it doesn't have to be unhygienic or poor service.
