Editorial Review for Taquitos Jalisco – by Lynelle Lawrence
The Scene
Far from the maddening (tourist) crowds, Taquitos Jalisco is next to a laundromat in a nondescript Winter Garden strip mall. Inside, red tile floors, cloth-covered tables and a large "cabana" bar make up for the charm that's missing on the outside. Servers are personable and accommodating, but can't make up for a lack of speed in the kitchen. Be prepared to fill up on chips and salsa while you wait.
The Food
The menu is inspired by the flavors of proprietor Servando Lupercio's home state of Jalisco, Mexico. Popular dinners include the burro loco--a 10-inch tortilla filled with beans, rice and chicken, covered in red sauce and cheese--and the mole poblano (chicken simmered in sauce made from 20 Mexican spices and chocolate). For dessert consider the special combination of flan custard, ice cream and Mexican caramel sauce.

I used to frequent Taquito Jalisco's in Winter Garden when I lived there. Now that I live in the downtown area I go to the one in Metro West. I'm originally from Texas & am very picky about Mexican food. The food at Taquito Jalisco's rates right up there with some of my favorite restaurants in TX. The chicken enchiladas with verde (green) sauce are to die for & you have to have the sangria loaded with fresh fruit. They definitely have the best Mexican food in Orlando!!! And I'm not sure why the other reviews say that they are slow, because I've never had a problem. Although even if they do have a slow night it is well worth the wait!!!
