" The food was decent overall, but I did have some issues with portion sizes. I ordered fajitas, and they were quite good but not enough to fill me up. The service was average; the staff was friendly, but it seemed like they were struggling to keep up with the orders. The ambiance was cozy enough but could use some renovations. Not sure if I would come back, as I think there are better options available in Houston. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to La Jaliciense last weekend and it was a weird experience. The food was really good and tasted authentic, but the staff was not very helpful. I ordered a simple taco plate, and after waiting a long time, I ended up getting the wrong order. Thankfully, they were quick to fix it, but I didn’t like the initial impression. The place has a hole-in-the-wall vibe which I don’t mind, but it could use a little cleaning. Overall, the food redeemed my experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" A fantastic escape into authentic Mexican cuisine! I went for breakfast and couldn't have been happier. The huevos rancheros were rich in flavor and served with fresh tortillas that made my day. The only downside was the wait, as they seemed quite busy. However, the staff was very courteous. I will surely be making this restaurant a regular stop for my breakfast cravings! " (*Curated Review*)

" I took my friends to La Jaliciense last week, and it was a mixed bag. The food was tasty with authentic flavors; however, the service left much to be desired. We waited a long time for our drinks to be brought out, and our food came out nearly cold. It did taste well once we got it, so I might give them another chance just for the flavors alone. " (*Curated Review*)

" I just love La Jaliciense! The meal portions are sizeable, and the food is consistently great. The staff is always kind and attentive. I especially love the salsa verde they serve with their chips. It's fresh with a kick! I frequent here when I want good home-style cooking. Even on busy days, they keep up with service pretty well. " (*Curated Review*)

" Although the food was delicious, we had a bad experience with our server during our visit to La Jaliciense. We ordered a simple nachos to start and they ended up being forgotten. After waiting for a long time, we were left with only our drinks while everyone else was being served. It was off-putting. That being said, the main dish after was very flavorful. I hope next time they can improve! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a very ordinary experience at La Jaliciense, to be honest. The guacamole tasted fresh, but the tacos were lacking in seasoning. The service was acceptable, but it wasn’t particularly memorable. It’s not a bad restaurant; just don’t go in with high hopes. I’d rate it an average place for a quick bite, nothing more.
