About El Jalisco McDonough Mexican Restaurant

El Jalisco McDonough Mexican Restaurant offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making it a popular choice for families and guests. Many reviewers highlight the delicious food, with particular praise for the guacamole, which is described as the best. The drinks, including the pineapple margarita, receive positive comments for their taste and strong flavors.

The service at El Jalisco is noted to be friendly and attentive, contributing to a pleasant dining experience. However, some customers express concerns about the automatic 18% tip for parties of four, feeling that it takes away their ability to decide on the tip based on the service received.

Guests appreciate the fast service and the cleanliness of the food, which is described as tasty without being overly seasoned. The restaurant also makes efforts to accommodate guests, as seen when staff took extra steps to set up outdoor seating on a nice evening. Overall, El Jalisco is recommended for its great food, superb drinks, and attentive service, though diners are encouraged to be aware of the tipping policy.
