Met the owner Felix! Welcomed everyone in. Thanked us for dining here. Small place, unassuming. Very friendly and the food and fresh tortillas were absolutely on point! Will definitely be back.

My wife and I have been coming here for a few years now. Felix is a stand-up guy and he always makes sure you are taken care of. The portions are huge and the food is always flavorful. They have excellent tacos and we love their burritos. The only problem is that they are packed so full that they will sometimes fall apart on you, so make sure you have a plate available.

Small joint but great food! Owner was friendly and so was the staff. They didn’t have a plate on menu but regardless they gave what we wanted. Would definitely come back!

Absolutely love El Jardín! They Chili Verde Wet Burrito is amazing...well the Chile Verde anything is delicious! Definitely recommend!

Came here on a Saturday morning. Restaurant wasn't busy when we got there, but more people came in as we were leaving. Parking is easy to find.We were a party of 7 and you seat yourself. They serve chips and salsa as appetizers. The green salsa was good while the red salsa had a smokey-like character to it. Both were watery, so its hard to enjoy the chips when they really don't stick to the chips. They have menudo and barbacoa de res on the weekends.I ordered a plate of barbacoa with rice and beans with coffee. The food came out fairly quickly and the portions were generous. The barbacoa was very good. Nicely cooked with bits of the fat complimenting the meat well. I believe the tortillas were hecha a mano too. The rice was good, but the beans tasted like plastic. Definitely wasn't feeling them.Overall, I enjoyed my experience here. The waitress were very nice. The owner was very welcoming. The remainder of the party ordered menudo, huevos con jamón, pancakes and huevos con chorizo. The menudo portions were very generous, a lot of meat and a big bowl. Same goes for the other plates everyone ordered. Everything was reasonably priced. I'll definitely come back to try the other items. Just fix the flavors of the beans.

First time here. I really enjoyed the smell of food cooking when you walked in. Remind me of my childhood at my grandma's house. Will be back.

Authentic MexicanThis is "comida casera" (home made style) food.I got the chilaquiles, and was asked mild or hot... be careful when ask for the hot.And while I waited, I was given a small burrito... simple, rice beans cheese... the flour tortilla was the best.Thank you Felix, great service and great food.

Food taste fine but i think the chips and salsa were kind of old and made me feel a bit sick later that day. Service is ok.

Found my new spot! Food is well worth the price. We got breakfast burritos and they were HUGE. Can't wait to go back and try more! ?

Delicious food, love the salsa, great service. Only down side I walked out stuffed.
