taqueria jalisco

a local legend that kickstarted the mainstream appeal of authentic taco places in chattanooga,taqueriajalisco has become a must-have staple for foodies in the surrounding area. i've tried pretty much all of the toppings for the tacos saves jalapeno, and they are all awesome! chicken, of course, is a favorite of mine! as always, ataqueriais only as good as its salsa, so fittingly,taqueriajalisco's salsa is simply incredible! with some of the best food downtown, and indisputably some of the best prices, here's hoping that this place stays around for centuries to come!

taqueria jalisco mexican restaurant. on friday, a friend and i dined attaqueriajalisco, just off of main street in chattanooga, tn. i have been going there since it opened and have found it to be my favorite mexican restaurant. the menu has not change much but the flavor profiles have. my go to is the beef burrito and order it just about every time. their red salsa goes great with the chips that come with the meal but it is was even better on the burrito. be sure to try one of the local sodas from pure sodaworks.

taqueria jalisco is very small with only 5 or 6 tables inside, with more tables on their patio. being so small gives you more of a home-style feel. it’s like being invited to their home for lunch and the food taste like home made. they have the best authentic mexican food in town. there are also a couple tables outside the restaurant for the sidewalk café feel. the staff is always friendly and service is fast.

taqueria jalisco started out with just a small food truck and then expanded into a storefront at 1634 rossville ave. now, owners are adding a second location in miller plaza and should be open by the end of april. this is one not to be missed.

i'm so glad for some great authentic mexican restaurants in our area and i can't wait to visittaqueriajalisco again. go. there.

carne asada.... was a real let down. it was not skirt steak as listed on the menu but instead a piece of thinly sliced top round. i probably should have mentioned it but i did not. the place was packed but they have a really small seating area. i suggest that one stick to the tacos for the first visit. i will probably try another entree, but not the carne asada. the guacamole was really good today. the sopes got a good vote today and the gordita a vote down.

nice little place.... for fresh mexican food. usually i head to dalton for what one might consider real mexican food at a small family owned restaurant but this is one exception. i really like the food. for those that are troubled by greasy chorizo, you will be pleased to know that is not the case attaqueriajalisco. i have only been once for tacos with a side of chiles toreados but i will be back to try the carne asada as it is something i use to gauge a mexican restaurant. the service is just so so. another visit could be telling ???
