Jaliscos Mexican Restaurant - Carne guisasa refried beans - Mexican Near Me - Belton, Texas

One of our favorite places to eat when we visit Salado or Belton area. The service has always been great and the food is so delicious and affordale. We like the low key atmosphere and always enjoy getting the tasty chips and salsa before our meal. The waitresses are very friendly and always get our orders correct. The food is price very affordable and we have never been disappointed in the 8 years we've been going there for a meal. I highly recommend it!!! read more

Not the best Migas rancheras I've ever had but not awful, I'm pretty sure sliced cheese was put on top so it dried fast. Salsa is the best that I've had read more

The food and prices could be better. I prefer the restaurant down the street. The service was okay. Our waiter was brand new and should have had more training. Ambiance was more like a fast food restaurant. read more

This place is the definition of small town hole in the wall. My wife went to college here so she has fond memories and the food and salsa is still the same and worth the stop. They run a drive thru which is wild and can sometimes limit the service but the food is exactly what you want. read more

Jaliscos has a lot going for it. Cute space with that expected, "upscale-ish" Mexican restaurant vibe, patio overlooking the creek, plenty of parking available. I've been twice now and service has been good both times. Not great, but prompt and efficient. There wasn't a lot of proactiveness (offering boxes, asking crispy or soft taco, refills, suggestive selling), but they got the job done. The food is pretty good. I've had better, but I haven't been disappointed. Tortilla soup, fine. Chicken enchiladas, great, but amount of sauce on top, lacking. Ground beef and salsa, both have a weird spice that I can't quite place but doesn't quite work. Is it rosemary? Is it entirely too much cumin? I can't tell. The exception to the "fine" food rule is the queso. Jaliscos has the best queso I have ever eaten in my many years of eating queso. When I brought my husband here for the first time, I said "this is the queso I've been trying to find for you for 5 years". He thought he loved queso, but on this day, he learned what queso truly was, and it was a glorious day. My mother ate it and it reminded her of the queso she had fallen in love with 35 years earlier at her first restaurant job. Jaliscos doesn't need anything else to be good as long as they never change the queso. I also wish they had a better bar. Walking into this place, I would expect them to have a really nice bar with a fun environment and drink specials, etc. Instead, they have a bar area that doesn't really look designed to be sat at. You're kind of behind the drink machine, there is space for about 3 people to sit there, and the bar is too deep to really reach across it for service. I don't need to sit at a bar, but it would be a nice addition. read more

Queso, salsa and chips were great! The other food was just ok. The service started strong and super friendly but then we never had service after receiving our food. No drink refill, we waited I think 20 minutes after finishing to ask for a box but no one came back. We went and asked for one but then waited an additional twenty minutes for the check. It turned an on experience to a "won't be back" one. read more

The food is always great. The margaritas are the best. The service is spot on. Always crowded, get there early.

First time eating here. My daughter ordered a small queso and it was one of the best queso we've ever had. Chips were crispy and the salsa was excellent ! I had the crispy taco plate (delicious) husband had the soft taco plate (delicious) and our daughter had the enchilada suiza plate (delicious) our server, Adancito, was nice and prompt to refill drinks, chips and salsa. Great experience will definitely be back! read more

Service was terrible. I ordered one thing and the waitress either couldn't speak English or wasn't listening, apparently wrote down something else. So my order of chicken fajitas became Enchilada Suizas. I ate it anyway because I wasn't sure what I'd get if I protested. Luckily the food was tasty. But I will never go back. read more

Wow, I was surprised in the best way! We are from Dallas and have excellent Tex-Mex, so I had low expectations for a 4-star place in Belton. But the four of us dropped by after a weekend festival nearby and everything was really good! I was genuinely impressed by the $1.99 margarita special, and the food was all very good. We had the Jalisco enchiladas, Jalisco steak, queso, seafood soup, and more. read more

This place is special. One part of me says it's just tex-mex, but another part knows the flautas are a choose your own adventure experience. They're crisp with the right balance of cheese and chicken. And just like anything fried they'll get heavy. That's why they sit on a bed of very fresh and thinly sliced iceberg lettuce. Little piles of cheddar cheese, guacamole, and sour cream are there to dress the salad as you choose. Take a bit of salad and suddenly you're ready for another bite of flauta. If you somehow get bored dress your flautas with some salsa. It's got cilantro and I hate that herb, but I really love their salsa. Somehow these people have made me appreciate iceberg lettuce. Also, I don't like pork tamales, but I like their pork tamales. This place will ruin you for all others. read more

Went in for lunch on a Sunday, it was very crowded but no wait on a table. Our server was quick and attentive, salsa and chips were very good as was our food (chicken Jalisco & mini tacos). Inside was clean, very noisy but like I said it was crowded. I Will definitely come again! read more

seen great reviews and decided to try it with my family. terrible experience we waited 15 mins to get menus and the restaurant was basically just two other tables. our server was on her phone the whole time and was taping looked like she was on live, i ordered green enchiladas and they were cold meat was disgusting it was ground beef. I got my daughter the tenders and they were half raw I complained to the waitress about our food and she didn't even understand me nor explain her self, I don't mean to judge or be rude, but don't hire people that cant speak English. having your staff on their phones especially on live and focused on other things isn't okay, definitely won't be coming back here. read more

My husband and I eat here regularly. Food is good, service is usually friendly and prices is reasonable.

So far so good. Love the hot sauce. The service friendly. Very clean and modern for what appears to be an old Pizza Hut. I'm gonna see if I can get some of the hot sauce to take home. It's damm good! read more

We really enjoyed the food and service from Maribel. My wife had the chimichanga plate with rice and beans and guacamole, the guac was just average but the chimichangas were the best, the best part was she shared these goodies with me!..I enjoyed my chile relleno plate almost as much as the chimichangas. read more

Great food! Friendly staff. Great prices. My families favorite when anywhere near this area!

Food and service were good ... authentic restaurant with a large soup selection. The soda glasses were the size of a 2 liter... everything is bigger in Texas! I had the chicken fajita taco and it was seasoned perfectly. The queso dip was bland but I definitely crushed it! read more

So frequent this restaurant and there food is good, but some of the employees are incompetent and want to argue with the customer and tell them that's what your ordered. I specifically ordered a Al pastor with rice, beans, cilantro, onions, cheese and sour cream ! No lettuce or tomatoes or avocado or guacamole. Well they forgot the sour cream and I reminded them before I left because they forgot once before and never gave me credit on my next burrito. They have never once added avocado in any of the burritos I ordered and she said it came with it , and then there were tomatoes in which I can't stand in a burrito! A little upset at the customer service, and the fact she seriously wanted to argue with me, just terrible hospitality! read more

Quality of food was mediocre and bland. I ordered an enchilada plate and a hard taco on the side. Enchilada and service get this review three stars. Waitress was very attentive and never let our drinks or chips get below half empty. The meat in the enchilada was adequate. Rice and beans were very plain and lacked a lot of flavor. The taco shell disintegrated in my hand. I could not even eat it without a fork. Two flies kept buzzing around our table the entire meal. Maybe it's a good thing I had to eat my taco with a fork so I could use my other hand to swat the flies away the entire time. read more

Great friendly service! Salsa was wonderful & fresh! Charro beans were great and the gravy was very flavorful! Restaurant was clean & even had a drive thru! read more

Best bang for your money in this area (belton,temple, Killeen) I have found. Can get 3 breakfast tacos for 6$, or a big combo burrito for 7.79. Both very filling great hot sauce selection, and have eaten there twice and the staff are the nicest people, I couldn't ask for more helpful friendly people anywhere. I can't wait to try their dinner menu out. Not kidding those folks are so sweet I would eat there if the food was just okay and it's a lot better than ok lol. read more

Great food, inexpensive. Conveniently located off I35. I will stop there again on my next trip to San Antonio.

Not only a great place for breakfast but lunch as well, servers where amazing! Greeted and seated quick, we had a party of 8 and she was constantly checking on us the whole time read more

The most bang for your buck I have had in a LONG time. The staff were so friendly and helpful. I got the mixed fajita with shrimp and could not eat it all and that hasn't happened in years. The food was great and the sauce and beans were really good. The onions and peppers were cooked perfectly not mushy or raw like you get in a lot of places. The menu is huge too. And really good prices. read more

Won't be coming back. Been three times now and it has been getting progressively worse each time. Today's fajita meat was a cross between hamburger and fajita. Waaaaaay overcooked and zero flavor. Even my wife's fajita taco salad was very salty including the lettuce. Moving on to greener pastures next time. I didn't like it and will never come back. read more

The salsa was good. The kids chicken strips were devoid but slightly dry. Everything else was meh. They do NOT serve any alcohol. And there is a 3.5% service charge to use a credit card. Decent in a pinch but we aren't planning to come back. read more

Food is excellent and the staff is wonderful. So happy we found this hidden gem. We recommend to friends all the time.

Popped in from leaving mini weekend getaway in Salado! We were craving Mexican food & this was closest off the highway. Lot wasn't busy for a Sunday at 11:45 so we were skeptical. Sure glad we didn't leave; Salsa was fresh, hot chips & the tacos (menu: mini taquitos) were just the way I like. I didn't get a picture of the flautas BUT they were hand rolled, stuffed and fried. This meal was delish & when we stay in Salado, we'll revisit. read more

This place is fantastic!!!! The staff was very friendly and on top of the refills! The Carne Asada was so tender, juicy, and delicious!!!

I showed up at 1025pm because the online said 11pm. The manager told me, fighting back all the chips in her mouth, that the kitchen was closed and they were only serving chips and salsa. I hope the owner reads this. read more

Very happy with our experience here. Food was good, service was timely, and atmosphere was nice.

We were passing through heading home from Port A. Wanted to stop and eat in a smaller town to wait on Waco traffic to pass thru. This place had good reviews so we stopped. It did not disappoint. We were the first ones to get there and then many locals starting walking in for the supper rush. Service was friendly, quick, and the combo fajitas were delicious and a large serving. Price was great too! Guac and salsa were fresh. Restaurant and restrooms were very clean. If we can we will stop and visit again! read more
