    The food was tasty and reasonably priced. We sat down, order drinks and food. Then within five minutes(seriously...five) our food came out! Very quick service. Staff were friendly and the restaurant was clean.

    Hey, you're eating on the sidewalk in downtown Savannah. Pretty, darn, cool. Yes, solid menu, drink, and food options. All the traditional Mexican favorites you'd expect from a "chainy" restaurant. Service was attentive, warm, and flexible. Guac was freshly prepared and had mad flavor. We tried the Ultra Molcajete (steak, chicken, shrimp, and some other faves) and loved it. Seriously, the (leftover) broth was delicious and really brought all the ingredients together. Solid downtown option for a group who needs a bite but wants to keep drinking.

    Arroz Texano

    Hooray, no wait. This downtown Jalapeños location did not disappoint. This is a local restaurant that has done well and has location throughout Savannah and neighboring communities. Our waitress was efficient, and the bar and kitchen quick to respond to our orders. We were rather a picky group with "no this" and "add that", and our orders were all correct and hot. I enjoyed my order of Arroz Texano, and it was exactly as requested - without rice. Thank you! Our beer was served with cold glassware and the Margaritas were delish, too.

    Avocado chicken wrap
    Rebecca C.

    I came here with coworkers for lunch and it was pretty empty which was surprising seeing as it was a Friday afternoon. We were seated immediately by the host. Our waiter came over a few minutes later and asked for our drink order. Unfortunately, since it was still a work day we all settled for water. While we browsed they menu another lady came over with chips & salsa. A basket of chips and less than half a bowl of salsa. Simply looking at the amount of chips & salsa one could tell that these two were not equivalent. The chips were also slightly stale. I decided on the avocado chicken wrap with grilled chicken instead of fried. It was delicious. Perfect cooked. However, my side order of rice was dry & cold. Really disgusting & disappointing. Between the stale chips, cold rice, and slightly higher prices than every other jalapeños I've been to I will not be returning. The wrap was great but overall my experience was a definite 2 out of 5.

    Shrimp tacos

    Every visit to Savannah I have to come get my tacos. Great food nice people good drinks.

    Pork pastur tacos (don't judge! My hubby eats plain only meat and cheese! )

    Delicious Delicious Delicious, did I say Delicious! Stopped in for dinner after wondering on the river for a little minute! We googled this place because we were in the mood for tacos! Specifically birria tacos so we headed here! Disappointed this location didn't have it! proceedes to order and the food was good fast amd hot! Maybe next time we will try the other location for birria! Definitely recommend. Go on your birthday because they know how to recognize you on your special day with a shot, and hype birthday song! Ayyyyeee! Too bad it wasn't my birthday!

    They're all about speed and quality! Our server Kyshawn was attentive and answered our questions. Drinks were good and strong and all the food was delicious! I would recommend

    Cheese dip
    Sophie S.

    I would give this six stars if I could. Rodrigo was fabulous. We enjoyed handcrafted strawberry margaritas before a concert and were blown away by customer service and flavors that Jalapeños Authentic Mexican Grill offered. Thank you for a fabulous night!

    Cheese Enchiladas
    Melina F.

    The food here is not the best compared to other Mexican chains and restaurants I've been to. They do have many vegetarian and vegan options though, including vegetarian beans and rice. We got the black bean burrito, cheese enchiladas and a lunch plate. Their guac was not fresh at all.

    Great margarita
    Sandy L.

    Great service. Our bartender- Julie is so friendly. Margarita's are amazing. Totally recommend this place. Food is great too.

    This is absolutely NOT true, more like limited flavored water.
    Lisa F.

    This is only a review for the drinks, specifically the Margaritas. The advertisement outside claims to have the best Margaritas. Let me tell you, it's a Lie. The Margaritas are straight from a machine, not bartender made. They simply put flavor on top. If you like tasteless, water downed, weak drinks then it's your place. But if you prefer not to pay for flavored water the keep moving or orde a beer. Don't let their claim to fame, Voted Savannah best Margaritas get you in the door. Savannah lied, it was wayyyy below average. The positive is the bartender was nice but maybe teach him to mix a drink.

    At the Jalapeños on Whitemarsh Island, food was served lukewarm, even after we waited to have it reheated.

    20 year Hopso Vet here, My name LeMarkus R Ellis on all music platforms. Just moved to Savannah…read moreabout a month ago and all I can talk about is Foxy. The tacos were probably some of the best I've had in my life definitely top three. I know they talk about another coffee place being better, but the coffee is on fucking point. Last, but not least the most important part of my experience was a service I received. Lashely and Horizon were OUT OF THIS WORLD, exactly how humans should treat each. I hope they are just as nice when no one is watching. I never leave reviews good or bad. Thank you -L

    Despite feeling like there's no point in writing a review for this place because, if you don't…read morealready know it's one of the best coffee shops in Savannah, you must be living under a rock, I decided to give Foxy Loxy the accolades it deserves. Foxy Loxy delivers a phenomenal coffee shop experience. Not only is the coffee top-notch (and for 9 out of 10 people, it will be some of the best coffee they have all year), but in the interest of full transparency for my fellow coffee nerds, if you're the type of person who judges extraction ratios, roast profiles, and espresso technique above all else, you may also want to check out Franklin's or Origin Coffee while you're in Savannah. I say that not as criticism of Foxy Loxy, because I absolutely love this place and visit regularly, but as someone who considers himself a true coffee-shop enthusiast, I think it's only fair to give fellow coffee lovers the complete picture. For me, Foxy Loxy wins because it combines very good coffee with an outstanding atmosphere, making it one of the most enjoyable coffee shop experiences in the city. The atmosphere is exactly what you hope to find in a cool downtown coffee shop. Whether you're working inside, grabbing a seat upstairs on the second level, or hanging out in the back courtyard (my personal favorite spot), Foxy Loxy has you covered. There's plenty of seating, great food and drink options (their tacos and chips and queso are amazing), and an outdoor patio that offers tons of shade from both umbrellas and mature trees. They even have a really cool water feature and regularly host wine nights and campfire events that make the place feel more like a community gathering spot than just a coffee shop. This is truly one of Savannah's gems and absolutely worth a visit. On the coffee side, one of my personal favorites is a cortado with horchata. That said, I've yet to find a bad choice on the menu. No matter what you order, you're probably going to leave happy. Pro tip: If you're spending some time there and want to explore afterward, head out the front door, take a left, and keep walking until you reach Forsyth Park, one of Savannah's most iconic destinations. If you found this review helpful, give it a like. I hope you enjoy Foxy Loxy as much as I do.
