Jalapeños Downtown Cocina + Tequila Bar

I just want to start with the fact that the food and atmosphere is great
But they are not very honest people or are the organized.
Be ware if you ask for a drink without spicy juice they are going to still put it in there or they will use some that doesn’t have as high of an %.
Very rude definitely the type of place that doesn’t care about people or food just money and you can tell I hope this place closes down soon.

My wife and I ate at the bar on a Friday night during freshman move in. Food came - no utensils. Asked the waitress that delivered the food and she said “you will have to go ask the hostess for silverware”. I get the college environment… but that outlines the experience.

Good steak quesadilla with the rice and beans. Service is good, not outstanding but good. Atmosphere is good better than other mexican restraunts in the area.

Jalapenos Downtown Cocina + Tequila Bar reminds you that good food and a good time can go together, even in a college town! Don't be fooled by the rows of university students cars parked outside, Jalapenos is a good time for anyone, any age!

The establishment is well maintained and beautiful. Our waitress was very professional and catered to our every need. BUT As far as the food. the steak, chicken and pork were all overly cooked. Unfortunately, we will not be continuing to eat at this establishment as we traveled out of town for an event to this town.
