    Roll was mainly rice and the meat that was in there was rubbery and flavorless
    Courtney S.

    I'm pretty surprised at how good the reviews are for this place. We have driven by jalapeño dragon for years and finally decided to try it. Walked in and the inside is pretty basic. There was 3 people in there and it took over 35 minutes for our food. For what you get it is absolutely not worth it. The rolls were all rice. The little bits of meat were way over cooked and disgusting. The shrimp was rubbery. You get more meat in a single taco that is $4-5 than you do in an entire roll for $15. My roll was almost entirely rice. Overall it didn't even taste good, extremely bland. Won't be back and wouldn't recommend. Neither of us finished our food and went somewhere else to eat.

    In February I had a positive water experience at Jalapeño Dragon. Water comes in small cups. It is cool. I recommend.

    This place started with a food truck and I am not sure what jas chanced but im sure the owner will know. The roll was good, I had the land lober roll. I did noticed the change in the Chipotle sauce and also the soy sauce that usually had a hint or orange was not the same. To me they tasted sweet and I love them both with my rolle. The place is pretty, and clean. Music was a little loud there was no one there and at that I barely heard whne they called my name to pick up my order. I would consider giving it a second chance i just hope yo see same quality in the food as it did when they had the food truck.

    Overall I was impressed with the sushi. I have tried others and typically the flavor doesn't change across the sushis but these did. The soy sauce was perfect too. Would totally recommend and will be going back to try their other items. Only con felt like their chipotle sauce needed a bit more chipotle flavored. Place was nice and clean too Customer service was also great too. Total price for 3 sushis, 2 surf n turf tacos and 1 tea less than $70

    First time at this new restaurant. The food was really good. I got the Dragon Roll which was baked so it took a little extra time. My wife is not a seafood fan so she got the Land Lubber roll. Both rolls were large, I think 12 pieces, and we ended up taking probably 8 pieces home. We really enjoyed both rolls. The Dragon Roll has a lot of flavor and just enough heat for you to feel the slight tingle. Half the people were getting the tacos and the other half we're trying the unique rolls. I look forward to trying the ceviche roll next time. Parking is a bit tight right in front of the restaurant so we parked on the residential street. Very good, we will be back.

    The food is amazing, the service was amazing, and the ambience is amazing. I honestly wish I could rate higher. I got the ceviche, the birria tacos, and the Land Lubber roll. I love my mom and her ceviche but this was the best ceviche I've ever had. I WILL be coming back.

    AMAZING! I'm not a big fan of Mexican style sushi but this was sooo good. It wasn't too overwhelmingly battered, it didn't have too much rice it had the percent crisp and perfect amount of fillings. I love how it's a family owned restaurant. Their young daughter was ringing us up, their son was helping make the sushi. Very kind and helpful service. It's a very modern clean restaurant. Music was loud but not too loud, they have a self serve salsa bar which were really good! Overall we had a great experience for our first time and will go back. Btw they had a steady amount of business. It wasn't dead but it wasn't overly busy.

    We've been seeing reviews about this place and how they finally opened a dine in restaurant, so we finally tried this place. It's very new and very nice inside . Love the decor and how the restaurant looks. The menu.... Doesn't look like a lot but trust me, if it was a huge menu I don't think we would ever be able to decide what to eat. My husband and I shared Quesabirria Tacos, the Three Amigos Roll and the Chipotle Roll. We want to eat more Quesabirria tacos like now, they were that good. It's does not come with consume (which you do have to pay extra for) which I wish we did. The three amigos roll, giving you chicken, beef and shrimp cucumber and fried, delicious. It taste good with the soy sauce and the guacamole from the salsa bar. Now our favorite and will get again... the chipotle roll shirmp, crab meat, cream cheese and cucumber. Sounds basic. But then they top it with chipotle cream cheese, bacon bits, eel sauce and then baked. It was so so so good. We know we want to get it again. They guys behind the line were very nice and friendly. And also was nice to know everything Is made to order cause you can see them working on our order and hearing it all drop to fry and bake. We cannot wait to go back and try the rest of the menu!

    Yum! Forgot to get a picture of my food because it was so good. I got the yakimeshi rice bowl and wow their sauce is my favorite. Such unique flavors it's a must try.

    Stuffed peppers, Vegas rolls, and the jalepeno dragon were all cooked to perfection. Cheesecake and jasmine tea were excellent as well

Authentic Mexican food sounded perfect and I knew good things were in store when I arrived at 11:30am on a Friday and all of inside and outside tables were full. The inside is quaint but has quite a few tables. They also have tables out front in the shade (to call it patio seating may be a stretch, just simple tables and chairs on the exterior of the entrance). You order your food at the counter and I didn't study the menu ahead of time but the ladies taking my order were patient with me. I ordered a shredded beef taco and a cheese enchilada with rice and beans. Nothing fancy for my first time as it's hard to golf on a full stomach! I found the only open table and then hit up the salsa bar. They have 4 or 5 different salsas/hot sauces and a few other goodies. I got a small cup of each sauce and all of them were quite good. My food was colorful, flavorful and just the right away to give me some energy without being lethargic. I could go on about a few other nice things but it seems most of East Mesa already knows about this place given the high scores on Yelp from a lot of reviewers. Nothing to prevent me from giving a 5* review at this time. I look forward to trying some more dishes in the future.

The parking lot outside was parking so we thought we may have to wait, but inside was not busy yet and we were seated immediately. I ordered the smoked chicken enchilada as I saw it was a Yelp favorite and it was delicious. I ended up taking half of it home since we all filled up on chips and salsa before our meal. This restaurant is decorated so cutely. I love how there is a Baja influence with all the surf boards but also southwest appeal. There is plenty of seating and tables for big groups. Even with other people yapping around us, the noise level was perfect to enjoy company. 10/10 would recommend.

Everything tasted amazing and was served fresh and in a timely manner. We will most certainly be back (and you should visit, too!)!
