Mi Jacalito Restaurant is known for serving some of the best Mexican food in town. Their asada and pollo are particularly praised for being flavorful and moist, and their caldo de res is considered exceptional. The rice is also a standout, being described as phenomenal and perfectly cooked. The restaurant offers a variety of authentic dishes like Pambazo and Huaraches, which are not easily found elsewhere. The staff, including the friendly hostess Issa and the amazing cook Javier, are known for their warm and welcoming service. The prices are affordable, especially with specials like Taco Tuesday. However, there have been reports of rodent issues in the restaurant, which may be a concern for some customers. Despite this, the food is highly regarded and has been compared favorably to meals in larger cities. The restaurant has recently expanded, indicating efforts to address these issues.
