Puerto Jaivo Mexican Restaurant

Always good food, always good service!

Compared to other restaurants you dont get much food for what they're charging and some of their food descriptions should be more detailed.

Best Mexican food around—hands down!
We’ve been regulars for years, and it’s always consistently good. Highly recommend the Fajitas Chihuahua, Guacamole Mexicano, and Grilled Jalapeños. Chips and salsa are fresh every time. Friendly staff and great service—this place never disappoints!

Service was good the food was greasy

Excellent!

It was very busy. Clean and everyone was very nice. It was the closest thing to real Mexican I found here.

We sat for an hour before receiving our food, they just kept bringing chips and drink refills, it was not packed it was probably only 4 family’s there, my food taste like it was put in a microwave after waiting for so long it wasn’t even hot

The waiter was very friendly and attentive. Though the bar didn't have the Smirnoff I requested, the restaurant was very clean and pleasant. It took a minute to get our order and the food okay, had it not behien kinda cold, I think it would've been so much better!

This restaurant is an absolute nightmare. The birria tacos were revolting—slimy, gummy, and completely inedible. When I told the waiter there was something wrong with the tacos, he couldn’t have cared less. No apology, no offer to fix it, not even a hint of concern. The customer service here is beyond pathetic. It’s like they’re going out of their way to serve garbage and treat customers like they don’t matter. This place is a disgrace to Mexican food and should be avoided at all costs. Trust me, you’ll regret even walking through the door.

TL;DR: Try the Birria Tacos.

We stopped in about an hour before they closed for a meal on a trip through town. We were curious about a Mexican restaurant we didn't recognize, and it's become our new favorite for the Kennett area.

I had the Birria Tacos. They were exceptional. The flavor was full, the broth was delicious and the tacos were crisp but not crunchy until dipped.

My wife had loaded fries (loaded with chicken and cheese). She loved it. I tried a bite and the chicken was well seasoned, tender and cheesey. Luckily the fries were also decently crispy as well.

My daughter had a chicken and cheese quesadilla and she liked it enough that I didn't get to try any.

Above all perhaps, our server was cheerful and on point for the entire meal. We are going to make this a regular stop on any evenings that have us traveling through Kennett.

Hit or miss at best, ordered bean dip which at the other 2 Mexican restaurants in town taste close to the same the bean dip i got here had a weird wang taste. The chips were so hard I about broke a tooth. The cheese dip did have a good flavor but the chips were so hard I had to run to the local dollar general and get some $2 only chips to eat it with.

Definitely will be back!
