El Jardin Restaurant offers a pleasant dining experience with a comfortable atmosphere, pleasant staff, and nice mosaic tile art flooring. The food is good with large servings, and the menu features consistently good dishes. The restaurant stands out for its fine dining experience compared to other Mexican restaurants in the area. Some visitors have reported inconsistent service and food quality, including cold temperatures, incorrect orders, and underwhelming dishes. However, many customers highly recommend El Jardin Restaurant for its chill and casual atmosphere, good food, and reasonable prices. The place has a nice quiet, mellow atmosphere with lots to take in, and the floor design is awesome. They offer a gigantic pitcher of Margarita and Cadillac Margaritas are delicious. The appetizers were yummy, better than expected, with a tasty bean dip and delicate, not greasy, flavorful fried things like tacquitos and chips. It is a family-friendly restaurant with plenty of areas to sit and big areas for families, and wheelchair entrances are pretty wide. The tortilla soup and chicken soup were absolutely delicious. The food is high-quality, the drinks are strong, and the ambiance is incredible. It is dog friendly and has a lovely outdoor patio.
