Jalapenos Mexican Restaurant & Cantina

Wonderful food with exceptional service. I've been here many times and always felt the service was lacking. Went today and had Shelby as our waitress. She was wonderful, on point , and attentive . Couldn't have asked for more. Thanks Shelby!! We will ask for you by name next time

I have to say Shelby is the friendliest and most attentive waiter I have had here at Jalapenos. Will be back for the yummy food and will most certainly be requesting her as our server! Thank you for the great service Shelby!

Great little Mexican restaurant. Portions are nice sized, not massive, but good. I ordered the fajitas and they were tasty. Price is about what you would expect for any average restaurant in Alaska. Chips and salsa were really good! If you go during peak dinner time, you should expect a little bit of a wait for a table.

Aubrey was a great waitress. Food was fantastic. My wife loved the drinks

Jalopenos catered a memorial service at the VFW. They were thorough, self-directed, on-time, and the food was GREAT! People raved, especially about the salsa. The food was a key part of meaningfully celebrating a wonderful life that loved Mexican food. Thanks you guys! You helped make a hard time magical!

Great friendly staff! One issue was at the table. Everyone wanted to pay the bill. The service was amazing, professional,kind and explained. I tried sneaking the card and she said she already got instructions no issues with the staff just everyone wanted to pay it was split I'm in food service. Card tips hurt servers. As is declared on taxes. Tip cash. Pay by card is good okyay. But tip on card taxes take a percentage of that. When to pay tip by cash it means more and tax won't be deducted. Taxes take part of your tip. Many ppl will not ever see that money

Lots of margaritas! Drinks were a little weak but the food made up for it. Free chips and salsa too!

We went on a Friday night and the place was packed. The main dining room area has a nice atmosphere but we were seated in the back by a bar that didn't have as much ambiance or decor. There was an understandably long wait time, it was about an hour before our food came out. The food was good, big portion sizes, but not much flavor. I'd describe it as Tex Mex more than authentic Mexican.
