    A good quick fast food option if you are looking for something quick. Always speedy and usually open late

    Amazing flavor and one of the best pollo carbons I've ever had it may be a chain restaurant but they know what they're doing

    Excellent food and service! I was in Buda visiting family…read more They were raving about Chavelos. They dine there twice a week. I had breakfast tacos with egg, cheese, and avocado with a side of breakfast potatoes. Our server, Aly, was so friendly and attentive. The salsas were hot! But with different levels of heat. The whole experience was great and will definitely return when visiting again.

    The back is the front and the front is the back here…read more You drive by the street address, and the restaurant is not even marked. Go around to the alley in the back and there is a welcoming parking lot, a huge sign and customers going in and out. * * * Chavelos is your basic Texas Tex-Mex restaurant. All the standards. Prepared the normal ways these things are prepared. As comforting as old bedroom slippers. You can find these dishes in thousands of places all over Texas. But you will do perfectly well having them here. * * * Two unusual notes besides the back is front issue. a) They have beautiful post oaks in the back-is-front back yard. On warm days, you can sit out there. I recommend it. b) They are massively generous with chips and dip. The initial bowl they give you is microscopic. But they are refilling that bowl constantly. Scoops of chips showed up at our table many many times during our meal. The chips are lovely. The salsa is no great shakes. Still, I ate 6,438 chips with dip. So the salsa can't have been that bad. * * * Altogether a pleasant place. The old standards are old standards for a reason.

    ​If you're looking for authentic, flavor-packed Mexican comfort food, Jalisco's is a must-visit!…read more ​The Chicken Tortilla Soup is hands-down some of the best I've had. It's loaded with huge chunks of squash, bell peppers, onions, and fresh avocado. They definitely don't skimp on the chicken or the rice, making it incredibly filling. ​I also tried the Birria Taco Plate and it was phenomenal. The meat was tender and plentiful, and they give you all the right fixings--onions, cilantro, lime, and even roasted jalapeños to give it that perfect kick. ​Great portions, fresh ingredients, and total satisfaction. I'll definitely be back for more!

    Absolutely heavenly. Extraordinarily well grilled steak and pork!! Ignore the bad reviews and taste…read morethe perfection. Mouthwatering fish tacos with fresh slaw and delicious crema. The asada and pastor tacos were amazing - stuffed with perfectly seasoned meat from end to end. I ordered for pickup and it was ready in five minutes, ready at the front and the host was waiting for me with a smile. Such a friendly and professional staff. Bright and welcoming interior. Easy to access location right off the interstate. The red salsa is less hot than the green, which I'd say is medium. I ordered this through DoorDash and I loved that they had Mexican Coke! Real Mexican Coke with the labels, as you can see in my picture. I will order from here again and again. I was astonished that the reviews were so awful for this location - until I read them. I served for 3 years in college and every restaurant deserves a fair and honest review of their food, hospitality, and ambiance - the kitchen staff and front of house are working hard!! This restaurant should honestly have 4.7 stars or 4.8 - at bare minimum! I hope there is a process where previous reviews can be counterbalanced against the excellent experience I've had here. Every restaurant gets busy or has an off night. That's just how the industry works. But the meal I took home today was affordable, unbelievably delicious, and entirely unexpected. Not a restaurant that is any stranger to exceptional Mexican flavors - and one that I can imagine is incredibly consistent and well attended, despite the poorly devised assessments here. A local delight!!
