El Jacalito is a Mexican and Honduran restaurant that offers a variety of authentic and flavorful dishes. The Carne Asada Burrito is packed with juicy beef, rice, beans, lettuce, and crema, all wrapped in a soft shell. The Chicken Tamales are freshly made with a delicious red sauce. The Steak/Shrimp Burrito is described as the best burrito a customer has ever had, while the Birria Tacos are noted for being loaded with flavor and hearty portions, with a delightful consume.
The Horchata, Tortilla Chips, and Queso are highly praised, with the Queso being creamy and slightly spicy. The Plantains with Crema and Queso are also a standout, featuring sweet and soft plantains with a crispy outside. The Carnitas Burrito and Plate are good, and the Ribs with Cactus Pads are delicious and authentic, though the Charro Beans are not recommended. While the restaurant is small and quiet, and the staff is friendly, the bathroom could use some attention.
Overall, El Jacalito provides an authentic and flavorful dining experience with its delicious food and welcoming atmosphere, making it a spot that many customers plan to visit again.
