El Jacalito

Breakfast skillet is amazing, tostadas and salsa is the same, everything I get is great. The service is excellent and the staff is friendly, good vibes love this place

When you start off with a killer green chile salsa and hearty chips, you know it's gonna be good. It's a small place with only 7 tables but was pretty quiet on a Saturday morning. Breakfast burritos are the way to go.The prices are very reasonable and you can get any burrito smothered in chile for only 75 cents. The red is especially delicious today. Highly recommended.

This is a great little place! I found it on Yelp and so glad I did. The burgers were simple amazing and filling. I couldn't stop eating the fresh chips and green salsa. The tacos were outstanding and so good we went back for dinner.

We stopped here just driving through because we liked the reviews on Yelp, and we were very happy with our selection. The food was all very fresh and homemade. The salsa had been made fresh that morning, the tortillas were all homemade. It was a perfect roadside stop while traveling through New Mexico on our road trip.

Ditto to what others have said about it being a little whole in the wall, great service and good food. I had the pork plate with the red sauce. Tasty but could have been spicier for me. Hubby had the mushroom Swiss burger and loved it, especially the fries that are cooked to order and not cold or old. Only reason for a 4 and not a 5: tortilla chips tasted a bit stale and no liquor license. A cold beer always goes great with a burger and Mexican food!

Wonderful, delicious, yummy!Amazing food. We have eaten here twice. Unfortunately we don't live in NM but when in Las Cruces this will be our go to restaurant. Charming interior with 7 tables. The staff is friendly and accommodating.

I can't believe I have lived here for years and missed this place! It does look like a dive and its in an older part of town, but the food was SO good, so fresh! We had the fried jalapeño burger and the mushroom swiss burger and a side of calabacitas. The burgers were gorgeous as well as delicious and the fries were made fresh from potatoes (I asked). Prices were great and service was super! We went at 6pm on a Friday night and had the place to ourselves. I bet they are real busy for breakfast because that menu looked wonderful too. It has a cozy, low key vibe and sometimes thats just what you want!

The food was excellent. I had a delicious slightly spicy loaded burrito! Excellent. Service was friendly and felt cozy in the sit down area.

The chili relleno burger and fries were excellent. The three owners all have good experience with reputable restaurants in town. Service was fast and efficient.

The food was delicious, made and delivered quickly. It was the freshest breakfast food I have had in a very long time, less than 30 seconds from the stove to the table. The ambience is not what you go there for.
