Reviews for El Jacalito Restaurant in Las Cruces, NM
This was the only restaurant I ate at during a whole week in Cruces. It was fabulous. The red chile pork burrito was to die for,... and so were the chiles rellenos, made to order. So fresh, and the owners are so nice and serious about their food. If you're inCruces, you HAVE to eat at this little restaurant. It look a little sketchy, as it's in a converted fast food place, but have nofear! This could be the best NewMex cuisine you've ever eaten! Read more
Came here craving some Mexican food but on suggestion of all the reviews ended up ordering the green chile burger. Sweet lord,... have mercy, easily one the best burgers I?ve ever had in my life - never would?ve imagined I?d have it at a Mexican food place.Tasty, juicy, just flat out finger-licking delicious. Worth the drive from El Paso. ???????? ???? Read more
Had green chili hamburger with fries. Great tasting and with homemade fries to boot. Small, but very friendly atmosphere and... customer service. Read more
This is one of my new favorites. I pulled in looking to support local for lunch and was surprised with a well prepared carne... asada burrito (so good I had to about it).The burrito was very flavorful and didn't leave evidence all over my shirt. I was notlooking for a dripping, over stuffed burrito but a quality over quantity. I loved it so much I took my wife the next day. Theyalso serve burgers. I know I know how can you mess up a burger or burrito, trust me you can. The staff is very helpful andfriendly. Don't miss out keep it local and give them a try. The owner seems to work hard to make sure you get his best. If youlike tea try the road runner black tea (peach mango) mmmmmmmm. Read more
Don't blink if you're driving by, you might miss it, esp. if you're looking for the building and not the huge sign by the... road.Lol, but anyway, once inside you'll find the owner Juan a very nice and hospitable restauranteur. The food is simplydelicious and well cooked to bring out the sumptuous taste. They have a drive thru or you can dine inside the small but stillroomy dinning area. Highly recommend. Read more
Amazing!!! This food is delicious.. Compared to Ihop and Village Inn... But better.. Not as pricey and the combinations are... endless.. I can make a skillet last 3 meals.. My husband can only eat half a burrito.. Worth every cent spent.. The green chiliis off the hook *** Read more

Love this place. When I?m not in the mood to cook dinner; I just go thru the drive up window. Their burritos and quesadillas are... some of the best I have ever had. They also take phone orders. Read more
