I love this place. Great food and super convenient hours. I eat here 2 or 3 times a week. And they have a drive thru for rainy days or if I am in a hurry. The wet burrito is my FAVORITE :DParking: Plenty of parking

Food is good not the best but it's passable. I ordered the Steak chimichanga and it was good. Lots of meat and toppings with generous portions rice and beans on the side. The only bad thing is they didn't take the time to seal it well and it popped and all the oil came inside and it was drenched in oil. I had to use about 2 inches of napkins to soak up the oil from the to go tray. The horchata is.not original it's the fake kind so if your looking for authentic Horchata don't order it. I like the drive thru option!

The service is just so so,. sometimes they are super rude. Also I think it depends on whose cooking cause sometimes the food is really good and sometimes it's not. But great thing is, it has a drive thru! So if you're hungover on a Saturday morning you can drive thru there and get your food!!. It will suffice!

Everytime I come here the service great i never have to wait long. Food is ALWAYS AMAZING, fish tacos are the BEST! The ladies work so hard I don’t feel like they get enough recognition. I definitely recommend this taqueria to family and friends. Thank you for all your hard work to the employees of el jalapeño rojo. ?

Hands down the best hangover food I’ve ever had! Used to go here all the time when I lived in San Jose (when I wasn’t hungover too lol) and their breakfast food - specifically the burrito - is to die for. Can’t go wrong with the flautas either if you’re there for lunch.

Perfect little taco shop - best asada I’ve had in a minute. Get there early in the day - they only make so much and when it’s gone, it’s gone. Loved it. Nowhere to sit? Good. This food should be enjoyed in the car anyway!

Service was low par the cashier didn’t even want refund for a regular burrito that she made super. Allergic to dairy, yet she wanted us pay for another one. This place is sad that’s why I tell people don’t come here n when they do I tell them don’t get mad when disappointed ?‍♂️warned you ?
