About El Jacalito

El Jacalito is a restaurant that offers an authentic Mexican dining experience. The food is a step above standard Hispanic fare, with the highlight being the fresh fried corn base empanadas, which are unique to the area. The menu features standard Mexican dishes, but they are consistently well-executed. While the service can be a bit unstructured, the employees are friendly, and the overall atmosphere is casual and welcoming. The restaurant is a hidden gem, with no sign on the road, but those who discover it are rewarded with delicious, authentic Mexican cuisine and exceptional customer service.

I honestly wish that I can show you pictures of how delicious my food was, but unfortunately, I devoured… I mean, inhaled my tacos! This place literally has the most delicious tacos that I have ever had and I’ve lived in California for 10 years and I’m half Colombian… so I know a good taco when I see one
Very good, authentic Central American cuisine. Spanish speaking or translator recommended.

Muy buena y auténtica comida centroamericana.
food was delicious. Glad I gave this place a try.
