El Jalapenos - Lakewood

Some of the best Mexican (Tex mex) in the area!!! The building is very beautiful inside and out. Our service was fast and friendly! The food was absolutely delicious!!! We got amazing portions and great value. Boyfriend and I both ordered the El Jalapeños Special which includes pork tamale, beef taco, beef enchilada, chalupa, and a Chile relleno, and a side of rice and refried beans. It was sooooo good! The pulled pork inside the tamale has a great flavor and texture, and the tamale breading is perfect! the beef taco was nice and crispy, the ground beef is perfectly seasoned and has that nice fine texture. The Chile relleno is FULL of cheese and not too spicy (just how I want it). I was too full to take a bite of the enchilada, and I had two boxes for my leftovers since I just nibbled on a bit of everything! It was lunchtime so I don’t know how their margaritas are, but I would love to come back and find out!!! This place exceeded all my expectations! Thank you!

The place was packed, and for a good reason, the food was amazing. Even though they were extremely busy, service was quick and friendly.

Had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. We were a party of six and were seated right away. Service was on point. Food was excellent. My only ding to this establishment is they were out of Patron. One of our guests decided on another brand. I was surprised how busy they were at 6pm on a Tuesday. We'll definitely be back!

I love the food but wish they would drain the water from chicken before they put it in a taco shell. because it comes out soggy water drips all over. Other than that everything is really tasty. Service is great.

Omg had the best dinner and 42oz margarita here tonight first time here and most definitely going back
