Our son is here visiting and loves Mexican food. We took him to dinner at Jalapeño Inferno and it was a great experience. Both the food and service were excellent and the atmosphere very nice. We'll be dining there again and we highly recommend it.

Exceeded our expectations! Years ago, we discontinued going to JI... the quality had greatly diminished and service was mediocre. We were told by friends that they had upped their game and were back to the authentic quality and delicious fare of the past! Great to have wonderful, well developed flavors of traditional and true Mexican cuisine, not the “gringo” (and I am a gringo!) style that we find unappealing and with little flavor! Thank you! C Kuenzli Kudos to the Staff!!!...
