El Jaliciense Méxican Restaurant

Food was mediocre - the guacamole had big chunks of avocado in it that made it difficult to eat, and the chicken tasted a bit off as if it had been sitting out. Would have been 3-4 star review but they handed us out old menus with lower prices on them, and then charged us at the end $2-3 extra per item because apparently they had handed out old menus. Instead of honoring the prices on the menus they handed us initially (which factored heavily into what we ordered), they charged us the prices on the new menu (which they never provided us before they handed us our bill). It may have been an honest mistake, but if it was, they would have honored the prices they gave us. I am the customer - it is not my job to realize that we were handed old menus with incorrect prices. Instead of simply honoring the prices they gave us, they kept trying to explain what had happened, as if me knowing we received old menus would have made me okay with paying more for food they, perhaps inadvertently, advertised as costing less. In my opinion, that is a sneaky way to do business, and a great way to lose new customers.

A simple, no frills, family-run restaurant. You’d be hard-pressed to find a better corn tortilla in Nashville.

Great place for a quick bite. Friendly!

Solid little Mexican diner that serves up it’s food hot and fresh out of the kitchen. The prices are a little high for what you get. The flavor and quality could be a little higher. It’s a good place to try Birria tacos. Everything else that we tried was pretty average but good. We preferred the salsa over the chips. Not bad and I would comeback. It’s better than most in the area!

After a while of going here, I noticed that they manipulated the cost of my food. The register they use is completely manual and old school. They put in the prices as they see fit. There is no POS system and no itemized receipt they provide. I'm very disappointed, it feels like they do this a lot. I got the same exact order several times, and the price was different depending on who rings me up. I noticed several dollars (not including tips) added on from the price I saw at the register even. The young man with long hair rings up properly; however, the older gents that work there change the prices to juice up the numbers. I'll no longer be going here. Parking: Approximately 10 parking spots visible.

This review is based on a take out & im pretty sure it would be a higher rating if I ate at the location. I just ordered their chile relleno and pozole. The chile relleno was delicious, nice amount of egg and cheese. It was cooked perfectly. The pozole was good, lots of meat and the broth was descent. Overall it was a good lunch and I enjoyed it. I’d definitely come back again and try to dine in instead.

Friendly staff, neat inside. Got 3 steak tacos and 3 chicken tacos. Dull, bland, boring. Everything was super dry and overcooked. Had to pour salsa on the tacos just to swallow them. Salsa was also flavorless. Go somewhere else. Taco Bell has more flavor.

The restaurant was clean on one side, messy on the other side. The waiter had a hard time speaking English and Spanish, not sure exactly where he was from? The refried beans were good, the rice was ok, the fajita was overcooked gristle. Overall, not very impressed.
