Restaurant Review(Jalapeno Tree)
For the last few months we’ve been wanting to try the new Jalapeno Tree Restaurant, that’s been recently built close to our home. As for a Tex-Mex restaurant, it can be ok, but as an original Mexican restaurant, I don’t buy it. We went in and the hostess’s took us to the smoking section, which was located in the Bar area. The bartender, became our waitress and was very busy tending the bar, so often we waited, until she could make it over to us.
We naturally got our drinks fast, once the order was made, but had to wait for her to come back and take the food order.
When the food arrived, I wasn’t very impressed with the look of the food. The guacamole salad needed more lime juice and seasonings and was very bland to the palate.
The taste of the food was even more bland and the hot chili sauce, that they brought as a condiment, had almost no pepper heat at all. I ate most of my food and so did my spouse, but both of us, mused that the food at On The Border, was much more flavorful and we would have rather gone there. We definitely decided that we won’t be going there again. ![]()
Unknown by me, it seems that my youngest daughter happen to visit the same restaurant the next day after we did, and on a visit to my home a few days later, she happen to mention going there. She had the same feeling as we did, that it wasn’t as good as one of the other Mexican restaurants, that we also like.
