“ I really enjoyed my recent lunch here. I got a combo with shredded beef taco, cheese enchilada, rice and beans. Taco shell was the perfect texture, enchilada didn't turn into a pile of grease like so often happens - it remained tasty even after the cheese had cooled a bit. If I lived in Helena, this would become a go to spot for me! ”
“ Took a group of 5 for first time to Jalisco. No waiting, good space and atmosphere. Waited a bit longer than expected to place order of drinks n food. Not a long wait for food prep. Once food arrived, delicious! Will return. Might be favorite Mexican joint in Helena. ”
“ We've been meaning to check this place out for a while. Such a welcoming atmosphere. The hostess was very friendly and smiley. The young man (blonde, muscular) who served us was friendly, prompt and funny! The food came out so hot, the portions are HUGE and it was authentic and tasty! We felt very taken care of. We definitely recommend and we will be making this our regular spot for Mexican food. ”
“ The food, and service, were excellent. Some of the best Mexican food I have ever had.I have been there multiple times.. The interior is a little dated, and rather spend tens of thousands on a fancy remodel, they kept the prices more than reasonable, and the ingredients top notch. Served hot, and also the best salsa ever. Oh yes, they also passed the dealbreaker test. They gave me check at the table rather than one of those greedy tablets suggesting enormous tips while thr server stands there waiting. I avoid those establishments. Wish everyone would until the greedy tablets go away. Hghly reccomended ”
“ We had a craving for Mexican, and tried to find a place that wasn't too "fancied up" in Whitefish, to no avail. When we drove to Helena for our next campground, we immediately checked out the Mexican again and looked for something more authentic. From the reviews and photos we realized it looked more like what we'd been hankerin' for, so we found our way there and tried it out. The waitress was the only one working in the middle of the afternoon, so she was a bit run ragged. Our meal portions were large, hubs had the chicken fajitas and I went for the huevos rancheros. Mine was massive! In fact, when she brought it to the table the food was just pouring over the edge of the plate. No, it didn't get cleaned up before we left. Hubs said his was ok, and I thought mine was pretty durned good. In my book that's good enough. For what it's worth. ”
“ I was in Helena for work and it was my first time visiting Montana's capital city. It is a nice city and seems like a decent place to live but Helena doesn't really strike me as a foodie destination. That said, Jalisco Mexican Grill caught my eye so I decided to give them a shot for dinner. The door facing the street is not the main entrance but it's the one I went through. From there I was directed via sign to the host station where I discovered another sign directing me to seat myself. This is a very casual place with a charmingly dated interior. It has a very pub like feel with a large bar counter and a couple TVs for watching sports. I ordered the Plato Ranchero which can come with steak or chicken. I picked the steak. The presentation is great with an oversized plate and generous portions of meat, rice, beans, pico de gallo, and guacamole. My food was tasty and satisfying. Service was casual, friendly and competent. This place really gave me 80s standard Mexican restaurant vibes, but in a good way. The ingredients were fresh, the flavors were good and the portions were generous. This will be a place on my list anytime I am in Helena, Montana's capital city. ”
“ This a nice little restaurant. The service was really good. Our food was served very quickly. The portions were surprisingly large. Being from California I have high standards, the flavor good. I would have liked a little more spice. Overall good spot if your in the mood for Mexican. ”
