“My man and I were ready to end it all today… but then we found these tortas. Suddenly, life seemed worth living again. Who needs therapy when you have bread this soft, meat this juicy, and salsa that hits like divine intervention? 10/10 these tortas single-handedly canceled our suicide pact thank you♥️“

“It is not cash only. Menudo was superb. Best in town.“

“El Jacalito is one of those small local places that makes you want to come back. The food tastes homemade and everything we ordered came out hot and fresh. The chilaquiles were really good, the beans had a lot of flavor, and the salsa had the right amount of spice.

The portions are generous without being overpriced, which is getting harder to find lately. Service was friendly and the restaurant has that simple, old-school Mexican restaurant atmosphere that I really like. If you’re looking for authentic Mexican breakfast or lunch in El Paso, El Jacalito is definitely worth trying.“

“Best flautas in El Paso tx , incredible people!!!“

“First time trying. Service was great with our waitress and others checking in on us and offering refills and otherwise asking if we need anything. Food was authentic and I enjoyed it. Iordered the number 1. Enchilada, tamal had some spice with their red sauce on the outside but was not too much for me. I added some salt to taco. From left to right in my picture... beans, enchilada, tamal, chile rellano, taco and rice under taco. I ordered with meat but you could get the choices with cheese filling.“

The food is delicious and the service was even better. Again, Esmeralda was one of the best servers I’ve ever had. Thank you for such a great experience!“

“Home of Lucys Famous Machaca and Tacos Antonia“

“Everything we ordered was delicious! The carnitas tacos were fire 🔥! They did not skimp on the taco meat either; the tacos had thickness! The quesadillas were very cheesy, the papas were poppin', and the hotdogs came sauced! They had several bogo options on the delivery app and none were disappointing! Great prices! Spectacular food! Will be ordering again!“

“The food was absolutely delicious. The server and cook were really nice.
The cook is amazing the tortilla soup and all of our dishes were cooked to perfection. She takes pride in her cooking and it truly shows. Reminded me of my late grandma's cooking.
This deserves another visit from us soon.“

“I’m not sure why there is a recent bad review on google, but please take those with a grain of salt. Sofia’s has been our go-to for YEARS, and I am not even a San Elizario native. Sofia is always here and when you walk in, you’re greeted with a warm smile and welcome from her, her daughter Nancy, and the comforting home-town atmosphere. I always feel like I’m inside a huge family dining room. My go-to is the Plato Mexicana and it never disappoints. Their burritos, flautas, burgers, enchiladas, and breakfast items are also really good. These are just our normal orders but everything is phenomenal. Love that they also bring you chips and salsa with a cup of whatever caldo they have that day (menudo, Fideo, posole, etc.). Will forever be loyal customers here, and you won’t regret if you are too.“

“The food is amazing and the food came out fast!! Will be going back with the entire fam. 10/10❤️❤️❤️“

“This is the place where the food is just like abuela used make. This was my first visit but it won't be the last. Comida corrida, piping hot lentejas to start, flavorful corn gorditas, agua de sandia with sandia bits and ending in chice of deserts!!! What a delicious and nostalgic lunch experience. Abuela would approve!!!“

“Small place but delicious Mexican food. Was clean, fast and friendly. I definitely recommend this place if your ever in El Paso, TX. I defiantly will be returning.“

“Delicious tacos 😋 great customer service“

“5 star all the way around! From the service with Monica, to atmosphere and, of course the quality and portion sizes were amazing! Love this place!“

“My favorite weekly lunch spot for buffet.“

“First thing I look for is cleanliness, dust on furniture and objects inside. If I see none I eat more relaxed, if I see excessive dust I walk out. ASAP. Next I look at the silverware, water spots, glasses with stains, Iam out of there. If I stay to eat , Iam looking for taste. If it has that special taste , Iam sold. My own cooking is always over spiced, over salted, to rich etc etc. The only ways you get around this is to cook with love and patience, it’s a passion. When you find this you have hit gold. Good luck, and enjoy. Iam a return customer because of these things I have mentioned.“

“Walked right in to pleasant service. Our server was on point with drinks and helped us figure out perfect meals for the kids Picky eaters. Amazing service The food was excellent great flavor. Perfect portion sizes. The brought desert for the whole table even though only half it was supposed to be included with
When the bill came I was completely shocked
Three adults and 4 kids and two large draft beers was just at 100 dollars. Needless to say the staff got a 50 dollar tip and I still feel I got the better deal. If the restaurant was updated as far as looks I could completely see it doing great at one of the casinos in Vegas.
So good I would plan a trip through just to share the experience with friends and family“

“Muy rico todo 👌🏻👌🏻😋😋😋recomendado“

“Had an awesome lunch at SIMC. Service was quick and super friendly, and the food hit the spot. The enchiladas montadas were loaded with chicken, the eggs were cooked perfectly and covered in a delicious sauce, and the shrimp cocktail was fresh and flavorful. Big portions, great flavors, great vibe. Already planning our next visit.“
