Ordered this fish taco with no tomatos, so, they LOADED it with tomatos. Had I not looked and eaten one, you'd have a lawsuit. Its called FOOD ALLERGIES and they can kill a person.
I've only been into the restaurant once. But I'm still giving 5 stars for atmosphere. Really its the food. There's other taco/burrito joints but this plays kills. Rolled Tacos and the Carnitas Burrito! I've probably had a hundred of them form here - maybe not 100 but at least 35. I'm surprised they only rate 3.6 stars... I've never been anything but impressed. Carne Asada Burrito and the breakfast carna asadas are a good choice too but they're better in the evenings for some reason. On the weekends the menudo rips if you're into that sort of thing. A+
I always critique by the salsa and their regular red salsa was so good 😊 however when I asked what salsas they had (1st timer) I was just handed a red. So. My son said his sausage breakfast burrito was the best he'd ever had - 5 stars 🤩 I'm not sold. This is not a place that wants you to sit down and eat despite all the booths. Needs some love
Seemed like a great place to eat but when the food arrived my ground beef was definitely not cooked. I called them and they were able to remake it but since I used door dash they could not remake the order and offered to refund my order. I will say the customer service seemed pretty good as they wanted to make the order right! Sharing to spread awareness as you or possibly your kids could eat this.
Speaking as a former Clifton resident, I adore this business. There’s a saying in Houston that the more working class the neighborhood, the better the tacos. No restaurant exemplifies that creed better in Grand Junction than El J’s I live walking distance from Los Jilbertos and will make the trip to Clifton for their 9-1-1 Burrito. Their taco portions, albeit small, usually are a commendable quality. Three usually tide me over. El J’s was also one of the first places locally to offer birria, as well. They have a great selection of original burrito, nacho & super friy options that you can only get here. I could do a whole Tik Tok series exploring the entire menu. It’s unparalleled. This place isn’t for everyone. If you are remotely adverse to traditional Mexican fare, there’s a Taco Bell
