si senor fresh mex

our new favorite mexican spot. fast & delicious. the steak tacos, rice, beans, guacamole andsalsawere all fantastic. it's a hidden gem!

ate dinner here su -had the steak fajitas. the meat was a bit chewy, but not too bad. still, it and the (marinated?) veggies were very fresh and flavorful -very good to excellent. the portion was all i cared to eat with some left over. the beans were good to very good, but served fairly cold. the chips were ok to good, but the tomatillo and ranchero salsas on thesalsabar were very good to excellent -very fresh and i gather made there. the tomatillosalsahad noticeable fresh lime juice in it. i will certainly be back when nearby and readily if not strongly recommend.

love it!! checklist for authentic mexican: spanish speaking staff-check, telemundo on tv-check, a california burrito that includes french fries-check, and great salsa. they offer asalsabar with salsas that range in heat levels and pepper variety. the guacamole was fresh and well seasoned as was their chicken and beef. the california burrito impressed this cali native.

best in town!!! restaurant is simple and ordering simple!! the staff is very friendly!!!salsabar and great chips!!! authentic mexican food!!!

i usually just leave my reviews on google, but this restaurant doesn't give me that option. it's not even on google maps for some reason. i already tried to leave one review on facebook but it didn't go through.

i did not enjoy my experience at this restaurant. the cashier was quite rude. the default sides are rice and beans but i wanted to get rice and chips instead. i had to correct the cashier several times about what sides i wanted. they wrap to go orders in plastic, which makes the food soggy by the time you get it home. and you don't know what you have. i got home to discover that i in fact did not get chips with my order. too bad i didn't even have time to put thesalsain my bag before the cashier started rushing me away from the counter.

the food itself is fine, and they have a pretty good selection that i wouldn't mind trying. but with the service being so frustrating and the restaurant being in a part of time where there are so many better options to choose from, i doubt i will ever return.

great food. thesalsabar is amazing, the staff is very friendly and the food is fresh and flavorful!

good food, no atmosphere, expensive beer!. food was similar to most mexican restaurants. did like thesalsabar though. lights are to bright. sign on the window
says $7.99 pints. i thought it was a misprint. pint of beer is $7.99 and then you get one free. i would take that sign
down and just sell $4.00 beer. should be about $2.50 in a fast food mexican place. i probably won't ever go there
again. probably a good place for lunch.

fast and good. we went in and the person taking orders was friendly and helpful. we made our orders, got our drinks and sat down. when eating in they serve chips and have asalsabar. thesalsabar had some interesting choices, including a poblano avocado choice that was lively and very good. our food came out and was very good. my wife had a chicken chimichanga and i had two si senor tacos pastor, soft shell tacos with grilled onions, cheese and pork (pastor). we would definitely come back.

pastor taco and chorizo taco with rice and beans. amazing

cheap eats with friendly service. my husband and i are always on the prowl for new places that offer great quality food made from fresh ingredients for a fair price. if they serve tacos, that's a bonus. our favorite type of tacos are true mexican style tacos (meat, cilantro, onion and lime). came across this one while perusing the urban spoon directory and decided to give it a try (even if it was a 40 minute drive for us). i ordered the number 1 (two mexican style tacos). 1 with carnitas and the other with pastor. my husband ordered the same, but with 2 carnitas. we placed our order and grabbed a table. my husband grabbed a small portion of each of the fresh homemade salsas from thesalsabar. my favorite was the ranchero, my husband favored the habanero.the young lady brought us our complimentary chips (extra charge for take out orders) and the queso we ordered. their queso was delicious and creamy. consistency was dead on. then are tacos were brought up with little wait and we quickly dove in. the carnitas taco was great, but nothing stand out about it from other places we order carnitas from, but the pastor in my opinion was a winner for me. the meat was very juicy and just full of flavor. we quickly ran out of chips and i sent my husband to the counter to purchase another order of chips. the gentleman (who appeared to also be the owner) was more than happy to just refill us on the chips for no charge. we both had a jarritos soda to go with our meal. our taco orders were just $4.99 for 2 tacos which is a great deal to us. most places we get the same type of tacos from average out to about $2.79 per taco. so for 4 tacos (2 each) a cup of queso, 2 baskets of chips, and 2 bottled sodas we paid $17 and some change. a very fair price for what we experienced. i can't wait to go back. i'm looking forward to trying their enchiladas and the 12in burrito, while my husband has his eye on the carne asada meal. we will more than likely start using this as our regular sunday brunch place. the owner told us all about the great drink specials they had every day. we only encountered the owner and the young lady who rang us up and both were just out of this world friendly and made us feel very welcomed. you can tell this place really cares about the customers. we can't wait to take our friends and family to this new spot.

closest thing to cali mexican. i've come to find the term "authentic mexican" is used very loosely here in jacksonville. this is not the case, however, at si senor. this is without a doubt the closest thing i've had to the mexican food i ate when i lived in san diego. no bottledsalsaor guacamole mix here, just fresh ingredients with big flavor. the carnitas are excellent; tender, succulent, and not overly salty like many places. the freshsalsabar is also a big plus. they have 5 or 6 salsas ranging from mild to tongue-numbingly hot! if you live anywhere in jax or are just passing through and want some true authentic mexican cuisine, you must visit si senor.

delicious!! thanks urbanspoon!. came here for lunch with my coworkers; saw it had great reviews on urbanspoon (so thank you!). we were greeted by the owner who was very friendly (as well as his staff) and very patient with us newbies. i had the chicken enchiladas with rice and beans, as well as chorizo hard taco. both delicious and fresh! i loved the taco! they also have a homemadesalsabar with (i think) 6 different salsas! my favorite was the avocado one with a bit of the hot mixed in and the racherita salsa! they bring the food out to you very quickly and also check to see if you need anything throughout your meal. the only downfall i saw with this place is that it is a little small in regards to the walkway but it's so delicious and great, that won't stop me from coming back! they also have a fuseball table :) and 2-4-1 margaritas all day. :)

delicious and fresh. went for lunch today. was hoping for shrimp, but it is not on the menu yet. the owner suggested grilled mahi tacos with aztec sauce. was absolutely delicious, fresh. $6.99 for 2 tacos and chips. i do think it should have included rice or beans for the price. ordered guacamole, was literally made for us. very fresh and full of flavor. also shared the cheese quesadilla, also good. we loved thesalsabar, poblanosalsawas amazing. enjoyed the fresh radish and sweet onions too. finished our lunch with tres leche for dessert. very authentic. will definitely come back.

go there!. if you're looking for good, fast, inexpensive, authentic mexican cuisine - this is it! entrees are very reasonably price ($5.99-up) and chips andsalsaare included with every meal. you can add beans, rice, and a drink for $2.99 and it's totally worth it.

this food is great. i had carne asada fries(not on the menu). i literally called 20 mexican places in jacksonville looking for carne asada fries and this is the only place that knew what i was talking about. kinda skeptical at first but these carne asada fries andsalsaverde are beyond amazing. the carne asada wad so tender.i will be back!

a good change. our first visit to si senor fresh mex and we were greeted by a very friendly gentleman who explained the ordering process and pointed out thesalsabar. my husband ordered a burrito and it literally filled up the entire plate! it was stuffed to capacity with ingredients, the steak was very tender and the entire thing was smothered in cheese sauce. i had the chimichanga and it too was loaded with tasty, tender steak and was fried to perfection. the chips tasted fresh and thesalsabar offered several different varieties.
