We stopped here after traveling to Hays for the night. Very quick table service, friendly smiles. Great prices! And quick steaming hot food orders to our table. Ice cold beers and ice water to cure the thirst. Big baskets of chips and salsa to the table immediately. Prices were even better. My wife and I both got stuffed for under $10 each. Amazing! Highly recommend! read more

Trueley great authentic Mexican cuisine Wait Staff is professional and attentive The Ambiance is akin to what I imagine a Mexican sports bar would be like. Photos of Old Mexico and historic figures while sports plays on all the TVs surrounding the dining areas. Appropriate for small parties as I've witnessed birthdays, anniversaries, and other celebrations here at this establishment. Alcohol is good as well. read more

Quick service and the food was great! The queso was amazing. The. Fajitas were large servings and several were plenty for left overs.

Pretty standard Mexican food. Everything was tasty and good quality, although the dinner size of the burrito Mexicano and its accompanying condiments felt a little skimpy. The prices on margaritas made up for it though. I'd come back, but probably order something else. read more

Tomatoey salsa. Simple decor. Waitress did not understand my order. Turns out I got Enchiladas Verde not Enchiladas Vera Cruz, but oh well. It was almost closing time and I don't like to complain. It came with 4 enchiladas: one cheese, one bean (my favorite), one ground beef and one loaded with chicken. Excellent verde sauce over top. Very tasty. Food came out super fast! Friendly staff. read more

FIVE STARS! I just found my new favorite Mexican restaurant. I travel overnight once or twice a week and try to tryout family run restaurants. This one hits the mark in all cases. Food was delicious and a huge portion. I got mine to go and it came with a full bag of authentic tortilla chips and a good size cup of salsa. Inside of the restaurant was good size and nicely decorated. When a good portion of the customers are speaking Spanish, your in the right place. read more

Fast service and good food. I use them for catering because they donut right and make sure you get a good amount of food. They also have a warmer you can borrow if you pick up the catering order. Try them out !! read more

Very friendly place with lots of room. I specifically asked our waitress to recommend her favorite dishes and we tried 2 of the 3 she recommended. Both were very good! My absolute favorite was a corn dip appetizer. I enjoyed it so much I got some to bring home too! Yummy! read more

Jalisco - Mexican Near Me - Hays, Kansas

Solid Mexican restaurant in the middle of Kansas. Hays is a pretty small town, and there are only a few places that serve traditional Mexican food. Jalisco is one of these places. The employees were warm and friendly, and they really helped establish the authentic environment of this Mexican restaurant. We went on a Saturday night so it was quite busy, but the service was pretty solid taking this into consideration. Our waitress forgot to bring us the check towards the end, but she did a fine job nonetheless, and I even spoke Spanish with her throughout the night. The salsa was pretty standard. It wasn't mind-blowing by any means, but it was definitely a good appetizer to the main course. The chips were warm and crunchy and complimented the salsa pretty well. I ordered some enchiladas, and they were really good! The red salsa had a lot of flavor, and the cheese inside was perfectly melted. The beans and rice that came on the side were pretty okay. The beans tasted as if they were canned. The rice was solid though. A solid variety of vegetables were included in the mixture. My SO ordered chicken tacos, and while they appeared tasty, they were under-cooked, as she said the chicken was chewy, and she didn't feel so well afterward. My SO's father ordered a chimichanga, and he said it was delicious! The guacamole was great too. It was none of that Chipotle crap where it's just crushed avocado. The guacamole at Jalisco's had lime, tomatoes, and onions mixed into it. Overall, the food was solid for the price, the environment was great, and the staff was friendly, and the service was good. Despite a few inconsistencies, the experience I had at Jalisco's was enjoyable. I would go back again with a group of friends or family if we find ourselves again in the small town of Hays, KS. Rating: 3.5/5 read more

Terrible service. Food was cold. Rice was dry and hard, beans were burnt, they failed to add my guacamole and tortillas. All around horrible experience. This restaurant shouldn't be categorized as Mexican food. read more

The absolute best Mexican food in Hays! Always over the top excellent service! Try the pollo bandido.

Just passing thru while going to Colorado to see the Grateful Dead. See Jose when coming here. Amazing Carne Asado tacos. Speedy Gonzales was good. $3.00 beers. Coming back soon!!!!! read more

Great Mexicans food at good prices. Best salsa I've had in a Mexican restaurant.

Great Horchata's served in a big glass and the pollo bandido is absolutely delicious!

Checked Hays for best restaurants and JD's Chicken was listed #1 and Jalisco's was in the 30's! What a joke. I hope my review corrects this travesty. If you are looking for great Mexican food that is fast, fresh and always amazing Jalisco's is your place. Not only the best Mexican in Hays best maybe all of Kansas. (They have locations in Dodge City and Salina as well) I travel for a living and tend to gravitate towards Mexican restaurants most of the time. I typically am disappointed and look forward to getting home to get my grub on at Jalisco's. I don't do Margarita's cuz fruitiness isn't my thing, but everyone who does drink them says they are the bomb. Strong and tasty. My GO-TO entrees are: Pollo Bandido Carne Con Queso The only thing I would like to see added would be homemade tortillas. But I have been places that offer them and they aren't all that. So it may not always be worth it? read more

Open concept seating with good service. The margaritas here are not for the faint of heart and are tasty. Traditional Mexican food served by an incredibly wonderful staff. The hot sauce here is some of the best I've tasted in a restaurant such as this. read more

Just found my new favorite Mexican restaurant! The California burrito with beef was out of this world. Beer was fresh and cold! Chips and salsa were awesome. read more

Wow!!! Awesome service! Fantastic food! Just a really fun place to go!! We will come back!!

I would put zero if I could. Food is gross. Way too much cumin in everything. Dry chicken fajitas. Flavorless fajitas, rice and beans. Lady literally said if we didn't like the food we shouldn't have ate it. After working all day day in the heat only thing we wanted was a nice hot meal. Instead we got terrible food and terrible service. read more

On our way back home to Oklahoma, we decided to stop at Jaliscos, we had the Carne Asada and the Burrito mexicana, the meat was full of flavor and tender, we were not disappointed at all! We will definitely stop again on our way through. Big portions as well! read more

Yummy !! It's was great Mexican food It was very tasty and fast service. read more

I always have to come here when I'm in town. They have the best white queso! Large margaritas and the hot sauce are delicious too!

One of the best places in town. Pretty quick getting food out and it's always good. My only complaint is that their chips are usually burnt so they taste funny with their delicious salsa. Would recommend though! read more

Solid Mexican and super fast. Definitely worth getting off the highway.

Please do not be fooled by the "Vegetarian" dishes... The beans are made with Lard and NOT Vegetarian. We only noticed halfway through the bean taco on the combo plate and they wouldn't take it off the bill even though we asked them to take it and didn't order anything else. It is irresponsible to label dishes on your menu "Vegetarian" when they are not, they could and did get someone sick! read more

Favorite Mexican restaurant in Hays. Best Margaritas is Hays hands down. Always excellent and FAST service. Delicious food as well.

I love Jalisco's! I order for pick-up and go in to sit down all the time. The food is affordable and delicious! It is the most authentic Mexican food in Hays. They have very fast service, especially if you order for pick-up. I have had a few issues with order correct-ness, however they are always quick to fix it. Their margaritas are gorgeous and strong, so keep that in mind. My favorite dish is Chile Colorado with corn tortillas. Yum! read more

Excellent food. I ordered the combo platter and the size was more then I could eat. Very spicy hot sauce if requested. The dining room is very typical of this type of restaurant. Waiter answered all of our questions and was very attentive. I will certainly be back and plan on ordering to go as well. For hays kansas this was an excellent restaurant. read more

It's a Mexican restaurant in the middle of Kansas. Not the best but not the worst Food isn't too crazy and fairly low quality but it's OK and safe. read more

Seriously mediocre food. Boring would be a good description. Canned food with very little flavor or texture. Prices were ok, but I certainly wouldn't make this choice again. Not much else to add. read more

Jalisco - Tasty! - Mexican Near Me - Hays, Kansas

It's a popular place, food was mediocre not a lot of flavor really. I had the special, the Don burrito which was very ample for a hearty eater. Chips and salsa served and salsa wasn't as spicy as I like but probably good for Hays KS. Service is very good, which is nice to see. Z read more

This place is in a dumpy, gas station strip mall style location AND the food is "off the hook" good! The owner is from Jalisco and the dishes reflect that. This is no gringo cheese and sour cream Americanized restaurant! I had the pork tacos special and it comes local style - with white onions and cilantro and I then asked for the lime slices. The rice and beans comes on a separate place which is nice. There were 2 young men running around serving and they are polite and fast. The decor is pretty cool for a blue collar place too. If you get horchata you are allowed one FREE refill which is unique and welcomed too. The table salsa is crap so I asked them if they had a roasted tomatillo salsa maybe with Cascabel peppers (native to Jalisco) and they brought me a spicier, roasted salsa right away. The price is fair for the great quality and you will not leave hungry. The gas you get later is mild which also shows the food is of a better cut. Muy sabroso! read more
