Mini Jalapeno Mexican Restaurant

Really great Mexican food. Loved every bite. Clean, large dining areas. Excellent service. Pro tip. Request hot sauce. Home made. No bottled stuff here! I would have taken home a gallon if I could have. Enjoy!

If you’re anywhere near the beach and craving top-notch Mexican food, this place is a must-visit! The service was incredibly attentive from the moment we walked in — friendly, fast, and they really made us feel welcome. The portions are huge, so come hungry! The star of the show was definitely the raw oyster dish topped with tons of fresh ceviche — absolutely packed with flavor, super fresh, and beautifully presented. It’s one of those dishes you think about long after the meal is over. Everything else we tried was equally delicious and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. Can’t wait to come back! 🌮🦪🌊

I am a local and I love to support the business’s down here. I have always ordered to go, but I will no longer do to go orders. The food was good, like any other Mexican restaurant. I have ordered to go a few times and it seems no matter what I order the bill is crazy. If you ever order cheese dip don’t ask for a large, it’s $15.99. I put it next to the two salsas they gave me and it was the same size. Be sure to just ask for 2 regular cheese dips. They’re $5.99 a piece. They even charged me 2 times for a to go cost one for my food and one for the cheese dip. I was so happy we got a good Mexican restaurant down here but I can’t support them no longer. I never leave reviews but I felt I needed to share this.

This place was a pleasant surprise for us on our last trip to Holden Beach. We had heard many good things but finally got to try it out. I had the Quesabirria tacos and they were very good! My wife said she could eat nothing but their rice all day long. We also had the choriqueso dip which was also great! This will be another staple in our visits to Holden Beach.

Food was fresh and delicious, great portions for the price, and the service was top-notch!
