El Jaral offers a casual vibe and affordable bites. The huevos rancheros had a sweet salsa twist, but I had high hopes for the refried beans that never made it to the table. Service was friendly yet inexperienced. I’ll stick to tacos next time!

At El Jaral, the casual vibe draws you in, but the experience was a letdown. The huevos rancheros weren’t as ordered, and service felt disorganized. The decor is charming, but the food missed the mark... Perhaps they were having an off day?

El Jaral Mexican Restaurant has potential, but my recent visit was a bit of a letdown. The ambiance is casual, with charming Frida Kahlo decor and friendly staff. However, my experience was marred by several missteps...
I ordered Huevos Rancheros, but they arrived overcooked with cold, hard beans instead of the requested refried ones. The coffee was watered down, and service was slow, likely due to a new waitress who struggled with the menu.
Despite the hiccups, the atmosphere felt welcoming, and the kids' menu looked promising. I hope they get things sorted soon! 🌮
