    Great food!

    We really love the food here. It is much better when you eat there! But with a toddler we don't get to eat out much anymore. The fajitas are amazing! We have had a problem with delivery once or twice (but only with things like forgetting the guacamole or side order of rice), and both times they were quick to fix and send the missing items.

    Awful!

    The woman on the phone was extremely nice...after that it all went down hill. To start the food took an hour and a half. We ordered the Enchilada Verde, Enchilada Rancheras, and the guacamole con totopos. Everthing was just bad; the enchiladas were cold and soggy, I couldn't even see the verde green sauce, the rice way over cooked, barely and beans on the plate, the guacamole was under seasoned and had way too much lime juice (you couldn't taste anything but the lime), the salsa was runny and had no flavor. Total the bill cost me $38.....not worth it!

    Yum!

    Great tasting food and drinks, love the enchiladas verdes and fresh watermelon juice. Also, good portions for the price. Many restaurants in the area are pricey, so this is my new favorite spot when I want to eat out without spending a fortune. Service is also excellent!

    Wtf?

    El Jalapeno makes decent food but is going down hill. Last week I placed a delivery order with them but the food never came. I tried again tonight, waited over an hour and the order was wrong. I called them back and the manager refused to speak to me.

    Best mexican in park slope by far

    Sorry the last reviewer had a disappointing experience but this place is really great. Excellent, authentic mexican food. Wonderful, friendly service and really amazing value. Atmosphere isn't the best but for a great neighborhood spot, this place can't be beat. The owners are so nice too. We love this place! Get them enchiladas verdes into ya...

    Really, really bad.

    Ordered for delivery and food arrived over an hour from order time. The complementary chips were chewy and stale. The cheese quesadilla was under cooked(not melted) and under sized. Other than that the food was generally sub-par and no better than what you would find in a dirty fresco taco stand. This place is the Mexican equivalent of a Chinese food take out spot with bullet proof glass that sells mostly chicken wings... Avoid at all costs.

    Best Mexican food in all of NYC

    We're from CA so we're used to great Mexican food. The salsa had a great kick. The chips warm and fresh. The beans and rice were great. I had the fish tacos and it was really flaky. My husband had enchiladas verde. The best Mexican food we've had in 6 months. The one thing and it's totally our fault. We ordered 2 pitchers of Margarita and they were $30 each. They seemed weak in the alcohol. We should have asked how much before we ordered. Other than that excellent food.
