Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

I left my DROID phone on the table (on Sunday, September 11, 2011) and an employee stole it! We were the last patrons there when we left and they were already putting the chairs up to start cleaning up. I called the following day to go pick it up (seeing as when I went back they were closed). I was told they DID NOT find my phone. Clearly, an EMPLOYEE STOLE IT. I'm VERY upset; I even offered a hefty reward to get it back so I could get my pictures back. No luck. DO NOT EAT HERE!!! TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE!!! There are better Mexican Restaurants in the area: try the next best review. :)

New in town read the reviews and called to make sure they hade menudo. They said yes and I drove over, I ordered the menudo my Friend ordered a torta . When the menudo came it looked brown Watered down and had a horrible smell. I told the waitress and she took It away,she assured me that I would not be billed for my food but when the bill came she billed me $10.50 for the Torta when it was 5.50 on the menu.

Always great food and flavors... Come when its not super busy and you will have no complaints. But beware on Sundays its crazy but its the best menudo on this side of town!! We drive all the way from pantano and sabino canyon and consider it worth it.

I am very picky when it comes to Mexican food so when a Mexican national made this recommendation I drove there and tried their food. I have rarely had better more helpful service and a delicious dining experience. So far I can recommend the cabeza burrito or taco, posole, menudo and the chile relleno is to die for. Their flan is very pleasant and not nearly as sweet as others so it's a fine dessert after a rich meal. The Posole and Menudo are served with either bread or fresh tortillas. You cannot go wrong either way. Please go there and support another fabulous local spot.

We absolutely love this place. This is our favorite Mexican food in Tucson. The atmosphere is... like other tortillerias--but pleasant. The kitchen is very clean. But the food is why we come back every year. We're just some gringos, who hear it's good authentic Mexican--all we can say is it sure is good. The only minor bad thing to say is that it's easy to miss as the sign is practically camouflaged. (Just remember to turn at the "Tony's Auto Glass" sign. We'd drive by more often than not if not for a GPS device.) We've only been to six Mexican restaurants in Tucson, but Jalisco is BY FAR our favorite of them. It's SO much better than so many more expensive places.

Nice, unpretentious atmosphere, friendly people, average prices. The guy wandering around inside selling pirated DVDs was cool, too. Should have bought some... In terms of the food, Jalisco was fine. A three seems low, but a four would probably be too high. Their red menudo was very uninspired--it sure tasted thin and watery for having a lot of fat in the broth. Thankfully, it came with a heaping tray of limes, oregano, chopped onions, and chilitepins. The caldo de queso had a rich, deep broth, which almost redeemed the lack of ingredients in it. The asada burrito was a a little dry but otherwise good--the meat was exceptionally flavorful and well cooked. The clear winner of the meal was was the deliciously hear-clogging asada carmelo. You could feel it hit the bloodstream, half a ton of melted cheese perfectly complementing the steak. The tortillas were heavy and worked well with the carmelo, though you can certainly get better tortillas elsewhere.

low key spot that serves authentic fare, similar to some spots I've been to in Mexico.

I feel like I eat here once a week because it is so good. Whether I want breakfast, lunch, or menudo/posole any day of the week with ALL the fixings, this place has it all. This is one of the few places I've been to that has menudo sin maiz, just the meat, along with the regular menudo. The toasted bread is also an extra treat and is not a side that is overlooked.

Jalisco offers a very inexpensive way to get some delicious tasting Mexican food. Their chile rellenos are tasty and their enchiladas have a wonderful rojo sauce along with being filled with Mexican cheese, not cheddar. You get a side of corn tortillas and all the chips you can eat. That's a good deal. The beans and salsa were somewhat average in taste but it's not a deal breaker by any means. The restaurant itself is pretty utilitarian in design with nothing flashy or colorful adorning the walls. Just a TV tuned in to some great Mexican soap operas that you can understand no matter what language you speak. Jalisco is also a little store and offers a nice variety of sauces and tortillas. Service was great.

A very authentic place. The food was great and reminds me of good Mexican home cooking. Everything is good and English is a second language there, hence the authenticity.

Pros: Very friendly staff, excellent chicken burrito, were very generous with sending us off with fixins' for our menudo (chopped onion, salmon colored peppercorns, lime, cilantro). Cons: Menudo was a dissappointment. We tried both white and red. Red was better, but white was bland, even with everything added in. Also the tripe was not prepared well, it was cut into chunks that were WAY too big, and some not even cut through all the way, so I would be trying to eat a piece of tripe, and would end up pulling up a whole string of tripe instead. My sister has actually made white menudo that tasted better and we're Polish! I would recommend for the buritto though, that was huge and excellent, that's what brought the 3 stars, along with the friendly service.

This place is pretty bomb! I recommend the chilaquiles and the menudooooooo! MUST HAVE THE MENUDO! They also have take out, you can get a gigantic bucket of menudo to go! dope ass chips and salsa! The bathroom is very spacious!

My regular Menudo-to-go spot, La Estrella, was out of Menudo so I decided to give Jalisco a chance based on previous recommendations. This place smells wonderful. It is instant happiness as soon as you enter. All of the plates I could see on the tables looked fabulous! I ordered both red and white menudo, and a dozen meat tamales. The menudo was not as good as Estrella, but it was still good. The tamales were great. Moist and a little greasy....Just the way I like them! I cannot wait to come back and try their regular service.

Chile rellenos in the Tucson Area rated according to the Homeland Security Advisory System with three word descriptors. Jalisco: messy but good. Orange See photos.

The most authentic and tasty Mexican food. No chain food here, all real. Great soups to include Menudo Red and White. Very friendly, English is a second language here, does not matter. Great bakery and tortilleria factory as well.

Sometimes you want some Mexican home cookin, Tucson's equivalent of southern soul food. Jalisco is one of those places. You sorta just want to sit and listen to people doing their jobs (preparing your food) and whatever banda or whatnot is on the radio as long as it's not that two-bit tramp you-know-who. Partial to enchiladas for some rib-stickin gooey food at Jalisco, they top with cotija or queso blanco instead of yellow cheese product like you can buy at Wal-Mart (at least yellow cheese product is not made in china -- yet). So if you are in a low-key Mex mood and want to relax a bit, this is a good spot. THREE & 1/2 to 4 STARS.
