Come back to Jalapeños:We were recently looking for a food option for an event we were holding in our backyard. After checking pricing at many local restaurants who offer catering, I finally thought of Jalapeños where we hadn't gone to in years. I didn't need a live person on site cooking. I just wanted to set up our own food buffet. Jalapeños was the perfect option. We ordered enough food for the specified number of guests which included trays of chicken, carne asada, rice, beans and condiments of onion, cilantro, salsa, chips, guac. The food was hot and packaged well. It was delicious, and reasonably priced. The owner (I think she is a new owner of just a few months) and Dimas were so helpful. She even called me the next day to ask how everything went and invited my wife and I to come in for dinner. If you left Jalapeños in Orange Circle you should come back and try it out. I even have family members who always go to the Tustin Jalapeños who said they are going to start going back to the Orange location.

We have been coming here for decades. It has a great location in Old Towne Orange. The staff are friendly and there to serve. You order at the counter and once you take a seat they will bring you some chips. They have a nice salsa bar with many options. Parking can be a challenge, but there is a parking garage not too far away. They recently remodeled and have a more Mexican flare with bright colors and decorations. Good food and reasonably priced for what you get. Check them out.

I am a Chapman university alumni and I cannot believe in all my 4 years attending that I never came to Jalapenos . . . what a shame!! I would've been here ALL THE TIME!Their loaded carnitas nachos and wet burrito were standouts to us. They also do a heck of a soft ceviche taco. And when one margarita just won't do... why not add a michelada, a paloma, a mule, a sangria, and a mojito to the mix? We were so happy to see they offer all these drinks here!!Seriously though: whether you're here for the endless drink options or the fresh, mouthwatering dishes, Jalapeños really does have that authentic flair that keeps you coming back. Everything tastes SO good -- and the service is excellent! They truly want you to enjoy your experience beginning to end.

I love this place!!! I came here for taco Tuesday and they had a great deal on huge tacos. The meat was so flavorful and juicy. It was also filling because of the large portion size. I helped myself to the sauce bar and my favorite was the hot sauce. It's a must try! It's pretty spicy though. It's creamy yet spicy and it's just perfect. They also provide complimentary chips with your dine in order (not sure about take out bc I've only eaten dine in here) I also really like how you can clearly see the kitchen because the screen between the kitchen and the dining area is separated by clear glass. You can watch them make food and see the whole process.

The food was delicious, hot, and presentable. The service was outstanding. The person who greeted us took our order. The ambiance was quiet and relaxing. There was a line when I arrived, but it moved pretty quickly. There were plenty of tables to choose from. I'm looking forward to my next visit.

The food and service were great! I tried a California burrito which was more than enough for 2 people. Chips came out right after we ordered and the salsa bar had plenty of choices (the hot red salsa was my favorite). The burrito came out hot and the quality was definitely there. They've really changed the look of the inside and it feels more open than before. The booths and tables were nice and clean. Highly recommend adding this to your list!Burritos, tortas, street tacos, crispy tacos, enchiladas, are all good!

This is possibly the worst Mexican food you can get it is straight up cafeteria style and overpriced no flavor. You can probably get better food from a hospital. It's that sad. Save your time and money and go to the many other Mexican food. Places in the area ponchos is way better

Super cute and fun ambiance with their recent remodel! Great for a date or place to meet up. Although it's a little loud from the TV, it has a fun vibe and we enjoyed sitting near the windows where there's good people watching on the main street. I'm always looking for a good chile relleno so I got one for lunch. If you don't have time to make them at home and have a craving, this will satisfy it. There is a chips and salsa bar with multiple salsas plus my favorite: pickled jalapeños and carrots. Make sure to try these!Service was fast and friendly so would recommend and will be back in the future.

my shrimp taco's had one shrimp per tac. so two shrimp tacos had a total of two shrimps. I go out of my way to support small business but this was truly yucky!
