Staff is very fun and friendly. They show all their guests great hospitality and a good time. I have eaten at several Mexican restaurants... all over the place... but El Jaripeo holds a special place in my heart as my favorite. It is a small, cozy joint with great margaritas. I recommend Molcajete or Burrito Cancun.
Edit. Tried again and the service greatly improved. Food was even better than the last time. The lunch specials are very tasty and affordable. Keep up the good work!
Well if the service wasn't so terrible I would've given this place a 5. Had the most beautiful artwork, vibrant decor, and a very large menu with many choices. The food was steaming fresh and very favorable. As for the bad parts it was a little loud and the waitress simply didn't do her job. We sat for over 10 minutes without soda while she was hanging out by the bar. A different waiter came by and filled it. We were left with no napkins and the chips and salsa came out after our drinks. After we got our food she didn't even come back around until we got the bill. Needless to say she didn't keep the change.
I lived in New Mexico for 15 years and I can tell you this is the best authentic Mexican food in the valley! The service has no equal, and the staff is like family! You can't get a bad meal at this place! Unless your idea of Mexican food is Taco Bell.....in that case, you have never had Mexican food.
Texas burrito, steak, no tomato. I haven't needed a menu in years because this is by far my favorite thing to eat of all time!! I'd give this place 6 stars if I could!!
One of my favorite place to eat! (And drink margaritas;)) the service is great, and food is amazing :)
This is my new favorite Mexican spot. Great portions great staff and drinks. Very colorful atmosphere.
Great food, great atmosphere, and outstanding waitstaff. We have been here several times and it has always been a great meal.

The food has always been excellent here. We've eaten in and had take out. The take out was generous for the price. It was in foil containers, so we could warm it up if needed. We will be back!
We love it here! It's our "go to place" with the neighbors. Food and drinks are always delicious and the staff is very friendly.
Delicious food, great service, great drinks and reasonable prices!
Awesome time for my fiancee birthday party on Saturday evening. They had no problem attending to our group of 20. We have had many big events there and have never been disappointed.....
One of the best Mexican restaurants around. A must try!!!
Fantastic place. Great food. Amazing staff. They made my family dinner so special. I can't wait to return.
Cheers, with a margarita.

La comida es muy buena! The food was great and portion sizes were quite large. Enough that we had to take boxes home with leftovers. The staff was very friendly and service was fast. I love Mexican food and this is exactly the kind of place to get good authentic Mexican. We'll be coming back for sure.
Our food and our service was sooo good. El Jaripeo is always a positive experience! What a treat with my hubby and I to enjoy a dinner out.
I cannot begin to describe how amazing this restaurant was. The quality of the food was impressive. My husband had the Burrito Grande and I had steak fajitas. Both dishes were reasonably priced and the portion sizes were out of this world. Everything was so festive and the staff was incredibly nice. We will definitely be going here for Mexican food often.
The margaritas were bigger and stronger than I expected (awesome!), but the banana flavor was a little light (but banana is a hard flavor to get strong in anything). Love the fajita burrito. The music was a little loud, but the service was fast and friendly.
This is right up there as our newest favorite Mexican restaurant. I had a chicken burrito with a Chipotle sauce on top. It was great. My wife had a pork based dish, don't remember which one and it was great. We are going to make it a point to get down here more.
The food here is delicious 😋. My husband got the pollo fundido and said it was amazing. The rice that came with our meals was next level. My chimichanga was perfect. the churros we had for dessert were the best we have ever had. Friendly service and decent prices. I highly recommend this place.
