I love this place I usually eat there 2-3x a week. They have specials for everyday including drink from $8.79-$12.00 a plate. They have the friendliest staff and Miss Maria makes the best sweet tea!!

Enjoyed this restaurant in Russellville KY!!! Excellent Food, great variety, I highly recommend, and atmosphere was really good! The SERVICE was stellar, always prompt and attentive!! Best I've had in multiple states!!! Even at 2 pm in the afternoon this place was busy and in a good way! I first went to Jalisco in San Antonio, so glad to see them nearby

Nothing else to say but "hidden jem". I've been going there since they opened. I have never been disappointed. Fantastic Mexican food.

The service was AWFUL! The hostess was legit the only person who spoke to us. At least three different men came to the table, one to take our order, one to bring chips and the other to deliver our food, NONE spoke to us. I asked the waiter a question about customizing my meal and he barely responded in a really rude way, but that was it. He wouldn’t customize my meal, so I had to order something else and it’s a very typical menu item at every other Mexican restaurant we’ve been to. The waiter never refilled our drinks until I asked him to and they were bone dry, which has never happened to me in a restaurant before. Then one man came to the table and grabbed my plate from in front of me. I was so shocked, I was speechless. My husband asked if I was finished and I said no. The man was already gone with my food. We said hello to each of them as they came to the table and we weren’t there for more than maybe 30 minutes total. We heard them speaking to others, so it wasn’t because of any language barrier or anything. I still can’t believe that I left them a tip, but I just can’t not pay people for a service. I wish I had seen the hostess one more time, then I would have handed it to her and told her it was only for her and that the men there lost any opportunity to be tipped.

The food was great, well made, tasted good, arrived fast and the price for what we ordered was okay. Most of the menu was ridiculously high priced though.

Absolutely do not recommend.

Small local business with a simple setup. Got a chicken burrito that was filling as well as tasty. Really enjoyed my horchata. Would have taken a picture but started eating and made a mess 😆.

Listen up y'all. I ordered fajitas. I loaded up my tortilla and took a bite and bit into a sharp piece of plastic with a sharp edge. I asked for the mgr and told him I didn't feel comfortable eating off this plate and he offered to make a new one. I had to wait an additional 15 minutes for the new plate. By that time my husband was done with his dinner so I ate alone while he waited. When the bill came they didn't even offer to comp my dinner. Since I just about jabbed a hole in my mouth I had to ask for my meal to be comped. The mgr gave me the bill and he comped half of my meal. I said "hey why am I paying for half." Only when I pushed the issue did he take the full price of my meal off my bill. That is terrible customer service! With a piece of plastic in my food and I have to be the one to ask for a discount. And by the way, the fajitas weren't even very good

Franco was an amazing server, super professional especially for his first day. Salsa is 4.5 stars, queso is 5 stars , I will come back to LC next time I’m in the area.

I've seen this place every day dropping my son off at daycare. We have always wanted to try so we decided to. Very large menu with a lot of options. Price was decent, great lunch specials. Food was good just not great. Atmosphere was decent, typical restaurant setting, nothing special. Family friendly with decent kid options.
I came into this Mexican market to get something to eat. And of course I was mind blown in a good way. They literally have a Mexican restaurant inside the market with amazing food. The prices of course are a bit pricy. However, when your from California and cannot find any good Mexican food you’ll be very pleased to eat here. This is a great place to find Mexican products, check cashing and groceries for the gamy dinner table.
Wait staff is always friendly, but never seems to remember the orders correctly ... im there a lot, and it seems every time I have to send them back for something at least twice. Food is always fantastic. I'll continue to go because they are great people and great food. We all forget I guess.
Extremely fast and friendly service. Food was served hot and fresh!! Thee Best Mexican I've had!!! Must try

We have tried three Mexican restaurants in Lebanon, we just moved here and I think we finally found our spot!!! Max our waiter was amazing even when things ran a little long he made up for it with personality and attentiveness. We moved away from our favorite Mexican in LaVergne rancho cantina, this is a very very close second. We will be back and highly recommend.

Your typical Mexican restaurant and food. I liked the decor and the fajita’s were also good.
Best Mexican restaurant ever. I have not had a bad meal there. Excellent margaritas also! Serving staff is very friendly and always get the order right. The fried jalapenos are the bomb!

Los Compadres is a quality Mexican establishment in Lebanon, TN. The place is noticeable on the outside with a bright color scheme and has some finer touches than one would think on the inside. I went during Friday lunch time and the restaurant was around 30% full. Our server was polite and quick to refill beverages. The food itself was good, but not great. It seemed a little bland. I think a little more seasoning would go a long way. The menu itself is impressive, with a plethora of options. Overall, I'd definitely try this place again.

This place has the best dining setup. It has very nice comfortable seating and has a vintage Mexican culture feel to it. The people serving the tables are professional and awesome. The food was some of the best Mexican available in the surrounding area. They keep the drinks flowing, and food is served hot . Parking was easy and the restaurant was very clean. This place has been around for a long time and has kept up with modern Mexican culture.
Best food ever I will come back again and again I recommended caldo de res yummy 😋

Good food that comes out fast at an amazing affordable price. Lunch specials see a great way to eat quick and get back to work. The drink menu looks good so we’ll be back for dinner to try a few of them.
Food and service were good, but the price on my bill did not match the menu price. My meal, listed at $11.49, ended up costing over $15: $14.48 plus a $.63 credit card surcharge. It's obviously not hurting their business because the place was full, but beware, you may be charged significantly more than what the menu states!

Food was great and came very fast, our server was so nice and did a great job.
Food is great. Staff is attentive most of the time. Sometimes they are too attentive at first. I need time to look at the menu. Don't ask me what I want to eat when you come to take my drink order, even before the chips and salsa hit the table. You just handed me the menu. Most importantly, please, don't rake the leftover food off of another customers plate into the garbage can next to my table. That should be done in the kitchen, not in the dining area.

We need more places like this! Simple and delicious with friendly service. I had the Chili Colorado with steak and enjoyed every bite. Complimentary chips and salsa were really good.
I work right next door and when I tell you I’m a regular! I’m a regular!! Yes, the food is good, but they don’t value loyal customers AT ALL!! They wanna up charge whenever it’s convenient for them, but if certain ppl wanna give you a break cause you’re there every day they’ll cut you some slack! I will be taking my business street where they actually care about LOYAL customers! If you’re just passing through then check them out, but if you’re a regular they will absolutely take advantage of you and I’m completely done with them! Don’t care if it is right next door!
If you find yourself in Lebanon, you need to eat here. On a trip from Nashville, I happened upon this gem in the shopping center I was visiting. I immediately knew I would eat here and love it. Anytime I see Jalisco, I know it’s going to be the most hearty and flavorful Mexican meal possible. It did not disappoint. I was in tears as I ate the homemade tortillas, which are in the top 2 I’ve ever had. I was also in tears when I ate the pickled habanero slice out of the housemade special salsa, but I just could not resist. The carne asada is life changing and the beans and rice are legendary. Housemade Jamaica was in the top 5 I’ve had, and the assorted homemade hot sauces were each good enough to be sold in stores. I would go back to Lebanon just to eat here.

Food was good. Service was very poor. Almost like it was an inconvenience for them to serve us. Didn't get t any refills on our drinks and had to ask for the change back from my ticket after hunt the the waiter down before leaving.only saw the waiter twice before leaving. It would've been understandable if it was a busy night but it was not.
10/10 awesome tacos, food, great fresh waters, service

This place is great!!!! If you're looking for authentic Mexican food here is the place to go. And the drinks are amazing. They have a guacamole bar as well, where they prepare fresh guacamole. I drive all the way from Nashville to enjoy this restaurant.
I’m from the Southwest and grew up on authentic Mexican food.
So.

In my family’s order was Chile Colorado. Enchiladas Supreme. chicken and steak fajitas and bean dip.

Pick up order.

The enchiladas were cold, and the sauce is nonexistent, but also had a very generic and bland flavor. They are embarrassing and I would be embarrassed to recommend them. Also, I am embarrassed because I encouraged my wife to try some enchiladas.

The chile Colorado is not authentic at all. Although it is not horribly disgusting it is very close to a regular homemade pot of chili that did not go all the way to a “pot of chili” flavor and just relied on beef bouillon and cumin for flavor. It’s thin and cheap and the more I ate the worse it got. It’s okay I guess but nothing close to authentic in anyway. I’ll get to the meat in a second.

The beans are actually pretty good and the rice is decent and believe it or not these are perfect items to skimp out on yet they are decent!

The bean dip we ordered was not bad however, there is not much to that.

The fajitas had good flavor and it’s hard to mess up fajitas and are usually a safe thing to order at a generic Mexican food looking restaurant.

EXCEPT the meat in the fajitas and the chile Colorado was very small and wiry and I’m not sure if this is a place that is skimping on their customers either for greed due to ignorance or preservation.

Either way. It’s very unfortunate to pay for a plate of food and receive thin pathetic meat.

The guacamole was fresh and not much to it but fresh and they gave enough tortillas and sides for the dishes so thats a good highlight.

This place gets a 2 because it was priced somewhat decent. The place was clean and the ordering process was easy.

This is an okay place for a bite to eat but as far as good Mexican food unfortunately this is not it. I’d say it’s Mexican inspired and It’s just okay and par for the course given the geographical area and standards of the community.
Customer service is great. I ordered the chicken tortilla soup as I do everywhere I go it was watery per se. It had no taste to it. I ordered the chicken chimichanga and it was actually good but I won’t order the soup again.
Excelente comida con un sabor 100 por siento mexicano los mejores platillos que e comido son en Germán restaurant
I love this place. The food is really good, it's clean, and the service is quick. They are very friendly and always put the customers first..

This is a very unique little eatery. It is tucked into the corner of a smoke/convenience market so the atmosphere is not fancy at all. The tables and eating area was clean, and simple.
That being said, the food was amazing. My wife had the simple "American" breakfast and it was well prepared. I had the Caldo de Res and it was fabulous. Absolutely delicious! Definitely recommend.

Ordered the Pollo Loco about $18.00. Seemed pricey for the money but was good. The chicken was thin. I kinda left hungry but maybe I was just really hungry 🤦🏼‍♂️. They serve a huge dish of cheese sause with the chips which was a bonus. The salsa tasted home made not processed. Pretty convenient with plenty of parking.
Me and my wife go here atleast once a week. The staff and service is top-notch you normally will have chips and salsa less than a minute after your seated. They have very easy to read menus lots of options. The food is always very hot and fresh, the kitchen is super fast. Normally 10 minutes from the time you order your food is on the table. Waiters/waitresses always check on you top off the chips and drinks. When somewhere is busy all the time it's normally because they are doing things right great place to eat.

Great food. Great prices. California 🌯 burrito w/ chicken was great. Chicken 🌮 tacos great. Chips and salsa good. The place doesn't look like much on the outside, but the food is great. Ask for a little guacamole sauce...
Great food, just moved here and I'm 100%sure this is our new spot! So delicious and staff was great!
Pretty good food for very reasonable prices. Portions are generous. Lunch menu was broad. Service was quick and friendly. Nothing super unique or especially creative, based on what we had, but it seemed to be a great value for a solid meal.
I've been eating Mexican Food for over 40 years and this was some of the best I've ever had. I can't wait to come back. Seriously! The $3 Margaritas were also great and bigger than you would expect for the price.

The food good and for the money get enough for two people
Food is so yummy! Staff is friendly! When I call to place a pickup order they always have it ready for me upon arrival. Great spot for authentic food.
It was my forst time there, and I was really impressed!
Very fresh food, clean and friendly!
So glad we stopped in. You are immediately sincerely greeted and your waiter is direct and personable. We had the pork pastor tacos and carne asada and both were very moist tasty and plentiful. Well worth a visit.

Unique setup, Friendly place with great food. Tidy and colorful ambience, speedy service.
Great menu options and they can customize most of the dishes.
All good, they should salt the food better and flavor up.
Highly recommend a visit, the place wouldn't disappoint.
I live right down the road and probably eat here at least once a week. Wonderful staff, great food, DELICIOUS (and STRONG) margaritas. I love the fresh, chopped guacamole 🥑 served in the baked tortilla bowl with a side of grilled shrimp.

It’s wasn’t bad. The food as alright. But didn’t look fresh it look like they made it in the morning and just heated it up, it was dry and had very little flavor but it is eatable! The best thing I liked was the chips with cheese dip and guacamole! The sauce that comes with the chips was not that good it tasted like can tomatoes blended it with onions and cilantro. We order hot sauce but it’s wasn’t spicy the favor was okay. Overall I wouldn’t come again unless it’s the only thing open. Also they brought us tortillas but they were all stuck together it would just rip into pieces.

First time at that location. Food was good, ordered fajitas del Mas, nachos Supreme and Taquitos. Cheese doing and salsa was good too. My fajitas didn't have any tortilla with it, but its OK by me:) will be back for sure.
One thing, AmEx didn't work on their POS system... make sure to bring other way of payment

Great food. We went in the afternoon with our 2 children so it wasn't busy or anything. Service was great and we really enjoyed ourselves! I don't remember the name of my dish, but it was grilled shrimp, ham, pineapple, and mushrooms. It was delicious. I will definitely be back!
Amazing food!!!!! Best taqueria around. The staff is super friendly. Place is always clean and their salsa roja is to die for!!!

My mouth is on fire as I’m typing this. These flavors were amazing. This is a hidden hotspot. I highly recommend the burritos. They are huge. The shrimp tacos were amazing. The green sauce you can drink with a straw it’s so good. We bought some more green sauce to bring home. The salsa has a little bit of sweetness to it. Totally would come back. Video coming soon to my jack on the go show on YouTube.

Superb quality and excellent service, been coming here for years. Quesadilla was wonderful, cooked to the perfect texture, as were the flautas. The tamale was pretty good, but I probably wouldn't get it again.

I have tried many taco shops, but this place took over my #1 spot in two bites. I have never had pineapple on a pork taco, but now I don't want my pork tacos any other way. Be sure to go on Saturday so you can get a tamale or 3. Also, if you like heat ask for the habanero sauce. 🥰🔥🔥
This is definitely authentic Mexican. While not entirely not my thing, it food was good and fresh. The restaurant was clean and inviting, and the staff was friendly.

The service was great, they we're kind, quick and friendly! I had the steak tacos and they were delicious! My companions had burritos and they chowed them down! The biggest disappointment was the salsa. It had a sweetness that made it taste odd and bland. Will definitely come again!! Yummm.
