Reviews for Jalapeño's Restaurant in Lexington, KY
The service was great the food arrived a little too fast even. And once we got the food the cheese smelled like it was bad even... spoiled. After eating it I felt sick the next day. I normally love Mexican food and never have a bad thing to say about it but Icouldn't let this one slide Read more
Restaurant was clean. Very beautiful inside, all the colors and it was clean. Now for the food, I really think this is... restaurant serves Mexican inspired food. The family and I were on a trip and wanted to try some of the local Mexican food. Westopped here, and everything was good up until we got our food. It was just made differently. It also tasted differently. Ittasted good, but not even close to being authentic. I get it on their website and in the restaurant it doesn't say authenticMexican food but often most places don't say that and the food is authentic. The server was very friendly, actually the entirestaff was friendly. Just had diffrent expectations. In my opinion they need a bit more options on the menu. Read more
I always wondered why this place was packed in the evening! I get it now. We went for lunch it wasn't busy and the team was... super chill and very accommodating. An A+ great place for lunch and very affordable. Try the fajitas with spicy salsa. It willmake your gums tingle. It's clea they take pride in both their service and their food. Will definitely come again. Read more
Fast, affordable lunch menu. Friendly staff. Outdoor seating available. Very close to the UK campus.
The food and environment were ok. To be honest, they both left something to be desired. Four stars for each of those. The... service we got was great. Even when there was a mistake in the order, there was a fix that was made quickly and professionally.The service deserved 5 stars. Read more
Wow that was some delicious food! I was so worried when we first sat down because the chips and salsa were not the best. The... chips were hard and over cooked. It was all uphill from there though. We ordered a bowl of cheese dip and they brought us outsome fresh chips with it. It was amazing! Probably the most flavorful cheese dip I have had in town. We all ordered the fajitas,and they too were amazing. This place knows how to season their food. With the exception of the salsa and our initial order ofchips everything was perfect. I would highly recommend trying this place out. Read more
One of the best, if not the best, Mexican restaurants I've ever been to. Everything I ate was delicious. Hands down the best... guacamole I've ever had. Great staff and reasonable prices. Wish I could give it 6 stars! Read more
Heavy pulp in the margaritas and way too much ice. If there wasn't so much ice, the pulp may have been okay. Chicken fajitas... were way too dry and service was almost non-existent. Bill came to $85 (before tip) for a very underwhelming meal for twopeople..... I'll never eat here again. Read more
