El Jalisco - Mauldin

I adore this restaurant, they treat you like family! The food is incredibly fresh.

Always a pleasure to eat here. The food is excellent and reasonably priced, and the staff are friendly. It’s always a pleasure talking to José the owner and his son José Jr. I always feel welcomed whether going with friends or family. I’m happy to live just down the street to be able to dine here often.

The food at this restaurant is excellent and the service is top-notch.

Always good service and good food. The hot salsa is delicious. Love this place. It's the only Mexican restaurant I eats at.

It was a tale of two halves at this restaurant. Let's start with the good: The food was WONDERFUL. I got the combo burrito plate, and it was fresh and tasty. My coworkers felt the same about theirs. However, the service was utterly atrocious. Nobody else was in the restaurant at 8 pm (they close at 10), yet it took us over 10 minutes to get chips and 15 before our waiter came to the table. Once we got our food, we never saw him again until it was time to pay, and the manager at the register had to go into the back of the restaurant and yell for him to come back out and give us the check. If they don't care about their customers, how do they expect people to want to return? I have to raise an eyebrow at some of these 5-star reviews; sounds way too different from what we experienced. This is based on a dining experience from November.
