    Borracho beans, or charro beans. I dunno. They're too good to have a name.
    Aaron C.

    Go for the whatever, and you'll come back for the borracho beans, or charro beans, or whatever they're called. Everything was good. Service, food, etc. I was in town a couple days later and in a hurry so I got an order of these beans to go. They're next level good! I had chicken and steak fajita meat served on rice and covered in queso. It was fantastic. Not sure what it was called. The queso could have used a little something, green chiles maybe. The chips, while fresh, had a kind of off taste. Didn't matter. The rest made up for it. Will definitely make a point to return when I'm in the area.

    Great food, friendly service, large portions. Love this place. Didn't expect such a great restaurant in Fairview. Will definitely be back.

    Northwest Special

    First time here, and it is Cinco de Mayo. Where else to have good beer and Mexican food! We were quite surprised how good the food and service was. Fairfield is a small town with few places to eat. I had the Northwest Special which was excellent. My husband ordered the Molcajete, which was served in a stone pot, and he said it was very good. Both our plates came out very hot! We both ate chips and salsa which was good as well. Our beers (Corona bottle) were served with icy mugs rimmed with salt. The servers were friendly and attentive. As an added bonus, we both received an El Maya t-shirt :)

    Tasty food! Excellent service! Molcajete is my favorite! White queso on a fajita steak chimichanga is the bomb too!

    The service is great. However, that was all that was good. Very small portions and the food had not taste. It was pretty bad.

    Mi jacal Mexican Restaurant - Booths and tables

    Mi jacal Mexican Restaurant

    (4 reviews)

    Mi jacal Mexican Restaurant is located by Loves Country Store. It used to be a Chinese restaurant…read moreand some remnants of that business is still here. The parking lot is gravel and not the best. Don't let the outside looks fool you though, the food is great. I've been here a couple of times and it was just about the same except the first time I ordered a taco salad and this time we all chose the buffet. The buffet ends at 2pm and we had gotten there right at 2pm. They let us go ahead and get the buffet and they said they would refill whatever we needed which went above and beyond to me. Once you get your food though, they may check on you once if you're lucky. The service needs help or the employees need more training. Each time I've been here the wait staff are talking to each other at the counter or sitting down chatting like we're not even here. It's rather a laid back job for them. I understand this is a family restaurant but I expect more when I'm dining out. I'll probably go again as it's the new restaurant in town and most of my friends and family want to check it out. I come for the food not for the service, which hopefully will improve on future visits.

    The food here is amazing!!! The wait staff are always very nice and willing to explain the items on…read morethe menu for you. I've always gotten the Butter Chicken and would love to have the recipe so I could make it for myself at home. Be prepared to take some home, because there is plenty to go around. It takes two people to share the rice platter, so only order one!!!
