El Jarrito Mexican Grill

This is by the best Mexican restaurant we’ve ever been to! Our family goes there all the time sometimes a few days out of the week! They are all so friendly and welcoming! When they see my husband and I pull up on our Goldwing they are excited to see us! Even when we have family coming in from out of town they always ask us “hey can we go to y’all’s restaurant lol! We always say well hell yeah!! It’s never too loud in there and it’s nice and calm. The place is always clean and welcoming to everyone that comes in. Thank y’all for all you do for us and always making us feel special and welcome just like family!

Vegetarian options: You can ask them to make it vegetarian and they will. No problem at all.

I just wanted something close by this evening. I'm newly staying in Magnolia, and didn't want to cook.

I'm a guy who can never say no to good tacos. Haha.

The atmosphere is authentic. It's warm and relaxing. the drink menu is hard to say no to, and the food tastes great.

I ate everything on my plate. I had fajitas for 1. The only thing I'll say is the meat was light. They need to put more chicken and more beef when ordering a mixed plate. The slices of meat are wide. Less beef than chicken. 3 or 4 slices of chicken, and if it was 4 slices of chicken, it was 3 slices of beef. I almost needed 1/3 more meat total and it would be acceptable.

Other than that, this spot is hot 🔥 great selections for appetizers and entrees. If your near Magnolia this spot is worth checking out.

Food - The food is okay in taste, some of the portions are rather small in my opinion compared to other Mexican restaurants. I do not think the price point is worth it, given that there are other Mexican restaurants with food that is lower in price with better portions and quality in taste.
Service - Oh boy. I have been to this restaurant about 4 times or so and every time I have gone I have not received good service. I have gone during both busy time and also when the restaurant is empty and it won’t matter, the waitress still takes ridiculously long to attend us. Everytime. One time we waited close to an hour before she even took our order and there was only 2 other tables there. I was about ready to leave! Please improve on the service part, or hire other waitresses with more attentiveness. This can definitely improve but it is up to the waitresses to want to improve.

If you're looking for a smaller, more intimate Mexican restaurant with great food than this is your place! What really sets this place apart is its service, which is absolutely amazing! Family owned and they recognize you each time.
