I came here from out of town with family who liked this place. it was so enjoyeable actually compared to others in this area. mostly because of friendliness, cleanliness, and portion size! the burrito was too round for two hands to fit around so had to cut it in half lol thickurrito the service was incredibly attentive and not too much at all. Camila and the other girl always had a smile and worked with our vegetarian options easily the salsa and pico btw with the chips they give is great read more

I had an awesome taco salad today with picadillo. It was exactly like I wanted and I put their green salsa on it and it was so delicious. Que Rico! I am disappointed that this location doesn't have posole anymore because I used to get it here years ago traveling up to Midway airport from Indiana. My wife and I love coming here and I look forward to coming back in two weeks! Muchas Gracias!!! read more

Jalisco Express Restaurant - Taco salad with no tortilla bowl because I don't eat carbs - Mexican Near Me - Oak Lawn, Illinois

Great location the prices are fair great neighborhood. I'm not sure what time they're open to.

Jalisco Express has been my go to spot for a good burrito in the Oak Lawn area. I have been going here for years. I decided to call in an order and go with a steak burrito. Always someone on the other line whenever I call in. Steak burrito was ready in 5 mins for a quick in and out. I'm greeted whenever I come in and I always leave with plenty of sauces and peppers to pair with what I get. Very bright and lively inside with a menu you cannot miss! read more

Jalisco Express Restaurant - Chips - Mexican Near Me - Oak Lawn, Illinois

Absolutely the best real Mexican food in the area. The food is excellent and the service is quick. It's not a fancy restaurant, more of a to go type setup with a few tables. You can dine it if you want and it looks like they're expanding. Very good stuff read more

Been coming here for years. But recently I'd say the food has gotten much better. Just ordered the steak fajitas tonight and my wife ordered the steak torta and it was great. My fajitas were well seasoned with the correct ratio of meat to veggies. The rice was good the beans were good. Her torta was fresh. Overall I thought our food was really good and the service was great. I dunno what these Karen's are talking about rude service I've been coming here all different times and I've never once experienced a rude service and the kitchen and dining area is always clean. If I had to complain about anything is they are kinda cheap with the spicy carrots and their hard, but I'm use to softer carrots from other places. Overall great food, great service. read more

If you're craving good Mexican food, you've got to check this place out. They have a window inside for ordering to-go and they also have a handful of tables inside for dine-in service. We called in a to-go order our first time trying the place and we have dined in twice since then. We walked in and sat down at one of the tables, and we were quickly greeted by our waitress. She brought out chips and salsa which were fresh and delicious. We ordered the steak nachos and the steak chimichanga burrito with a chile Relleno added inside. We also ordered a side of rice and beans. The service throughout our meal was excellent each time. The steak nachos (which we have ordered all 3 times) are scrumptious. They are fresh tortilla chips topped with steak, refried beans, cheese, avocado slices, and sour cream. They were so good we ate them all before I could snap a picture. The chimichanga burrito was also very tasty. The tortilla shell was perfectly crispy and the ingredients inside were fresh and delicious. The rice is flavored excellently and the steak is not fatty and grisly like I've found at other restaurants. We've been searching for a new spot for burritos and steak nachos as we moved pretty far away from our old favorite and this spot is everything we wanted and more. They're also open a lot later than most other restaurants around. I highly recommend checking this place out the next time you want high quality, fairly priced Mexican food. read more

I just ordered steak Fajita today. It was terrible. The service was terrible. I did not receive napkins or plastic utensils. The order was incomplete. I regret the 52.00 waisted on 2 fajitas dinners. The nasty lady at the register with thick dark lipstick was the most rude and disrespectful person I've ever encountered in a restaurant. I've never left a review for a business that washas absolutely no taste. Don't be fooled by all the color in the food. It's bland. Nasty. Over priced. I demanded a refund the man told me they don't work for free. They forgot my drinks and didn't apologize. They acted annoyed. They don't give salad or avocado you have to ASK for it like. Online it says 14.99 lunch he charged 19.99 He said it was a fake page. Which is a lie. Never eat this fake dirty disgusting over priced filth. Trust me. read more

Jalisco Express Restaurant - receipt for jalisco express - Mexican Near Me - Oak Lawn, Illinois

Been here a ton of times and it never disappoints. It's cheap, quick and it is delicious at any time. Recently switched up their red salsa and enjoy it even more. We've catered from here and the amount of food you get is ridiculous. You can't go wrong. Blows away the similarly named place down the street. read more

All tacos were delicious and flavorful! Service was top tier. A must try if your in the area, it's much better than any other place I've visited. Doesn't look like much, but the ambiance is great inside. read more

Jalisco Express Restaurant - Chicken taco, Al Pastor, steak - Mexican Near Me - Oak Lawn, Illinois

Taco salad in the tortilla bowl was very good and filling. My only complaint would be that the tortilla bowl was not crispy at all!

My three star review has mostly to do with the price of the food. Three steak tacos, rice, and refried beans cost me more than $15 with tax. I frequent Mexican restaurants often, and it's usually between 10 and $12 for this same meal. Even though, I did find the steak to be high-quality and tasty, but I would not return here because the value is not there. read more

It could have been the hour but OMG the burritos, tacos, guacamole, chips, salsas, and veggies are the bomb! Authentic and love that you can get a bottled Mexican coke! read more

For me this is a good burrito and quesadilla dinner spot, that's usually what I order to go, good portion and no long wait.

One of my favorite restaurants in Oak Lawn. The portions a huge when ordering takeout, the atmosphere is friendly and the staff recognize my voice when I call in (great customer detailing). The food is delicious. My favorite is their gordita with steak or chorizo. I am glad I do not live across the street because I would never cook homemade meals. Customer forever. read more

Steak tacos, just do it. Chips and salsa pretty great too! Al Pastor burrito.. at least 2 meals worth. read more

It's a burrito/taco place, it's not bad, but it's not always good. The service is okay. That's really about all I can say.

Ordered a chicken burrito. They wrapped it up and put it in a paper bag. I get in my car and the whole bag is already soaked through. Dripping grease and salsa on my clothes and car interior. read more

Jalisco used to be my go-to spot for Mexican. I've ordered the same thing for years, bistec a la Mexicana, chicken enchiladas dinner and a cheese quesadilla. A few years ago it was amazing food and out the door for $35 bucks. Recently that same order has gone from $35 bucks to $52. They still advertise the old prices on their newly built website, but charge a much different price at the restaurant. I understand everything has gotten more expensive recently, but the quality of the food at Jalisco has fell off while the prices went up. I can no longer justify spending half a hundo for three mediocre meals when there are so many other options around. Check out Los Comales on Pulaksi. It's a better option. read more

I have always loved this place up until now. I ordered a chile relleno and I got a soggy and watery chile relleno. I tried it and did not taste good at all it had a freezer burn taste asked if I can replace it for a regular taco and I apologized about having to return it but it was not good at all. She took it to the back remind you it was basically whole. I go to pay and I see the older lady tell the waitress that she got it. I asked her if she removed the chile rellano and she said no that I still ordered it. She insisted that I should've ate it because I ordered it. She got so loud and rude in front of everyone in the restaurant. She yelled that she was going to give me my money back for the chile relleno and still never did. I even referred family and friends here and let her know that. She didn't care she just kept being rude. She was very childish and unprofessional I believe that she was the owner or the supervisor. I am very disappointed in this place. read more

I have to say I have eaten at many authenic mexican restaurants and this one sucks. I ordered a bistec a la mexicana dinner and first the price was twice the amount than what was shown their online menu. 2nd they burnt the meat so all I can taste was burnt meat. There should be a sauce that the meat, tomatoes, onion and jalapenos sit in but it was non existent. I also have never seen orange refried beans in my life until now. You pay extra for flour tortillas which is ridiculous. The only thing I liked was my sliced avocado. I will agree on one thing though, they do give you large portions which just means I will be throwing out a lot more food as well as my wasted money!! read more

Jalisco Express Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Oak Lawn, Illinois

$9 for a burrito. Add a can of pop? $11.25 out the door. To make matters worse, the burrito was greasy and the restaurant's air conditioning doesn't work that well. Never again. read more

Their authentic Mexican tacos - I tried chorizo, chorizo + potato, and tongue - are delicious. I didn't see them on the menu so asked the waitress. My choice of corn or flour tortillas (was she testing me?). First time trying tongue, and it was tender and meaty, very good with onions, cilantro and the special green salsa they gave me. Good guacamole. Good chips and salsa. Larger interior than I was expecting. We went early, before noon, and the place was pretty empty. Clean dining area and bathroom. I would return. I'd also consider takeout. read more

I ordered a steak burrito, as I usually do from here, and it was full of lettuce and beans, little to no meat. I cut it in half and took a few bites expecting the meat to finally show up somewhere, but it never did. I felt like a rabbit eating this. read more

Clean. Good food. Good portions. Good service. My only complaint is they need to update their hours on google.

Love love love the Tallis fish dinner. My favorite meal. But the menu options seem delicious. Also had the taco dinner. Everything was great. Also try their drinks. Frozen Margaritas and smoothies also are on point. read more

This is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in the area! I love their delivery service and the staff are really friendly. Every time I order a delivery from them the delivery person always explains thoroughly to me what's in what bag, and where. Very polite staff, and the food is even better! Try the suizo burrito or taco salad, SO DELICIOUS!!!! read more

Hubby and I were thinking of taco place to eat when we passed this spot up and decided to try it out. Tacos were very tasteful and hearty, a bit greasy for my taste but worth it. Salsas were a little bland and watery. Service was good. huge plus they have guava jarrito. read more

I ordered a steak burrito and instead I got a lettuce burrito with a piece and a half of steak.

After my first visit couple months ago I wasn't happy. Food was fine but service not. Maybe because I ordered to go. She don't want to give me the chips. But tonight 100% satisfied with everything.

Jalisco Express Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Oak Lawn, Illinois

One of my favorite Mexican restaurants by me. I would give 5 stars but it's a hit or a miss if I even get my correct order. I always order the Chile rellanos taco dinner. Yesterday I got one Chile rellano taco. Another time I got a plain taco dinner. I'm not sure why this order is so complicated for them to get but when I do get it correct it's so delicious. read more

My bf and I use to go to El Gallo's near 111th and Cicero. Maybe we just got tired of the burritos there, but a friend told us about this place and this is now our go to. The carne asada is pretty good. I like how they season it. I usually go for a torta. I haven't really tried anything else off the menu. BIG PLUS, they except credit cards! read more

Good place to satisfy your urge for good Mexican food. This place is not fancy, it is more taqueria than restaurant, but they do serve some basic dinner plates. The food is authentic and a notch above average. Their steak tacos are seasoned well and the meat is not too tough or fatty. Their spicy green or red salsas are also very tasty. I have yet to try their breakfast and dinner specials but will be back soon. read more

I had the steak burrito, very big, very affordable. The burrito was seasoned just right and the hot sauce was very flavorful. I'll update as I try other menu items. read more

Surprisingly I had not been in this restaurant before. Went in for the first time due to the awesome reviews. All I ordered was the steak burrito. It was cooked right then and there, and it was mighty good. My only critique is that the meat could have used a touch more seasoning...however overall, I couldn't put it down. Trust me...I'll have to work out extra tomorrow to make up for engorging on the burrito! Now, I will be happy to come back, as I hadn't had really good Mexican food in years. read more
