I would have given 5 stars but the chips were cold and the queso was barely warm. The main dish, chicken enchiladas, was... delicious. Also the margaritas were fantastic as well as the service was great. We parked right next to this place between hereand the liquor store. The outdoor seating facing the main street was also great.

Great location! Good food. Outside patio. Server very attentive. Hugh Burritos Yummy chile rellano.
The place looked popular throughout the week so i decided to try it during my last day in bigbear. The place was nice on a... friday afternoon. They seated me quickly in nice patio seating. They even got me chips and salso quickly and my food followedsuit. I ordered a beef red-wet burrito with cheese and sour cream. I did not like it. The carne asada was just meh, maybe evena little bit salty but still bland. It got a very synthetic sour taste from the cheese and some from the sauce. It was almostbitter to eat. Very unenjoyable. Its funny because like the restauraunt, the foods presentation was very nice. Very goodcolors. It was a big serving too. I had saved the other half for leftovers. But like i said, i expected some street-likeflavors, not some bland food. The restauraunt was nice. Even the restroom doors were themed. I would return, but have yourexpectations not met. Read more

Don?t order the carne asada steak. They should have named it Beef Jerky! If I wanted that, there?s a good jerky place a few... steps away. Gave 2 stars for the quick and friendly service. Maybe other items on the menu are decent but I?m so turned off it?snot even worth for me to give it another chance. Read more
We've visited " El Jacalito" when we've come to Big Bear, food was great, service was quick and awesome. We ended up with Pozole... since it was getting colder. Definitely a place to checkout. Read more
Delicious food and fresh fish, the servers were excellent. Would have given this place five stars, but the news was playing on... the TV which did not make for a favorable experience. Everytime I looked up at the TV they were talking about people beingmurdered?. Not something you want to watch while enjoying dinner :( please play something else! Would def consider raising tofive stars if this is resolved Read more
