What Carlos Feeney likes about El Jacalito:
This place would get 5 stars if they had more waitresses. The place was packed for dinner and that’s a good sign. My chicken enchiladas were tasty and made fresh. Rice and beans were good, but not exceptional. It’s too bad they were out of avocados because I really wanted some guacamole. I’ll be back to try more. Also, very fairly priced food. My dinner with two beers was $20.03. View all feedback.
