Sooooo they didn’t have avocado…which is a problem but honestly the staff and the rest of the food did make up for it. It was delicious food. The enchiladas suizas were delicious! our plates were clean at the end of the night.

Loved Uncle Jalapeño! Stopped by before a flight out, and the food hit the spot! Fast and friendly staff. Definitely would come back for the food, but to also check out next time thier Salsa and Bachata night.

Five stars all around! From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. The drinks were perfectly mixed and the food was absolutely delicious. What elevates this restaurant is the incredible leadership. Andy, the boss, is a true gem—he's friendly, attentive, and clearly committed to making sure every customer has a great time. Highly recommend!

Seriously can't say enough good things about this place. The food and drinks are top-notch, but what makes it truly stand out is the atmosphere and service. Andy the boss is amazing—you can tell he runs a fantastic operation and genuinely cares about his customers. A must-visit!

We were here on vacation and decided to eat at Uncle Jalapeño’s based on other reviews. They are all true … great customer service, both Edwin and Rachel checked on us and provided several extras that made our meal special.

From the moment I walked in the staff made me feel welcomed. Great customer service and very authentic. My intention was to grab an order to go and as I sat down to view the menu Edwin offered some salsa and chips as I decided. My Server Rachel also offered some water which I thought was a beautiful gesture, the owner Andy took out the time to introduce himself and after hearing I travel for work offered a complimentary drink for the visit. My order was prepared quickly and as I waited I enjoyed the wonderful beverage, chip's and salsa. The staff makes it feel very welcoming. I sampled the food when I returned to my hotel room and and truly had no complaints.Thank you for the experience

The restaurant looked nice but I was by myself and had to repeat my order on 4 separate occasions as my server came back to my table to ask multiple times. My server didn’t seem to know what carne asada was then as I was towards the bottom of my chips I pulled out an old chip with thoroughly dried salsa from under the majority of the chips I had eaten. This definitely seemed to my like I got someone else’s left overs. I asked for my carne to be medium and it came out very well done. I did not have a positive experience here. I will not be going back not at 48$ for just me and no alcohol.

Came to this restaurant out of the blue. Was greeted promptly, and the service is amazing. If you like Mexican foodz this is the place to come. Service is fast and the flavours take you back to Mexico. Would recommend this place anytime. Best I've been to in a long time.

Uncle Jalapeno in Herndon, VA, is a vibrant gem! The lively atmosphere, with colorful decor and Latin beats, makes every visit a fiesta. Service is stellar—attentive and friendly without being overbearing. Prices are fair ($15-25), and the happy hour specials are a steal. Kid-friendly and perfect for any occasion, especially Fiesta Fridays with live DJs. Can’t wait to return! 5 stars!
