So authentic, best ever in Madison area.
first time going there today, they have the best tacos. and their salsa for chip and salsa is probably the best I've ever had compared to other restaurants. The staff is absolutely amazing and super friendly.
10/10 recommend.

Taqueria El Jalapeño is a hidden gem located near the beltline, surrounded by other wonderful Hispanic businesses. This restaurant serves "real" Mexican cuisine, offering a mix of Tex Mex and regional dishes with a focus on complex seafood options. The service is friendly and prompt, and the food is consistently excellent, with standout dishes like the chiles rellenos, which are perfect every time. The ambiance is charming, with beautifully carved and painted booths and tables that add a colorful touch. Chips and salsa are served immediately and are very tasty, with a hot sauce in a red bottle that is fantastic. The restaurant has ample parking and is conveniently located right off the exit to Verona Rd/Midvale. Many customers enjoy their generous portions, especially the large burrito with combination, which they often take home and enjoy over two meals. Their spicy salsa, enchiladas, tacos, loaded nachos, and various meat options like carne asada, pollo, and chorizo are all prepared with perfect seasoning and cooking. The interior decor, including hand-carved furniture, enhances the friendly atmosphere. The restaurant offers great value with its reasonably priced menu, making it a favorite for authentic Mexican flavors and a satisfying dining experience.
