I started to get interested with these restaurant due to my class teacher. He mentioned it a couple of times and I was intrigued immediately, when he said that it's Authentic and the price is reasonable. So, my husband and I tried it last weekend. The building of Jalisco did not look much, it kinda looked like those Mexican houses that we usually see in movies. I was a bit disappointed at this point, but my curiosity struck me.We were greeted with a smile and we were seated with our likings (we usually like booth and request it as much as we can in any restaurant that we go to). The waiter came by and greeted us nicely asked for our drinks and gave us our menus, tortilla and chips ( they were good). Here are the following items we ordered:
Bastrop Jalisco Margarita on the rocks with salt : I do not recommend this, their Margarita did not taste like a Margarita rather than a lime juice or whatever you call .
Giddings Jalisco Frozen Margarita with salt: I DO recommend this it was so good I finish the whole glass cleaned.
Bastrop Entry we shared the Guadalajara Dinner Combo and it was only $9.50. It came with Chicken Enchilada, Tamales, Refried Beans and Mexican Rice. Everything was so so so good. My husband and I finish the whole thing and asked for tortillas to dunk the sauce in.
Giddings Entry: My husband had the Chicken Fajitas and I had the Mexican Guadalajara Dinner ( I am telling you it was that good that I reorder it again in a different branch). The chicken fajitas was Fantastic! The onions was cooked just right that it still has the crunch but it also had the natural sweetness which was just perfect. Pico de Gayo was hot and spicy which I liked a lot. Guacamole in the other hand was in the bland side, no flavorings and it was a bit salty to me. My husband like his meal a lot he finished everything in his plate except the guacamole which is not his cup of tea anyhow.
Now, my order was the same as in Bastrop Jalisco which was the Guadalajara Dinner Combo but it came with different stuff. It did not came with chicken enchilada but it came with cheese instead. They also, gave me this stuffed green pepper with ground beef on top of chili sauce. Not a very big fan of it! All in all I like my tamale, rice and re-fried beans.
All in all my experience in this restaurant chain was fantastic! I love their food and the Mexican Authenticity of their sauces. I would definitely come back again especially with the affordable price.
