Just wow! I have nothing but great things to say about this restaurant! I ordered 3 fajita tacos with a side of rice and beans along with some fresh tamarind juice... everything was made fresh and very well seasoned. And then a waitress walks by me with a plate of sizzling fajitas!! Geez!! My mouth was watering lol!!! Smelled soooooo good!!! I will deff come back to this place!

The food is delicious and the lemonade is great. Prices aren't bad cause you get a lot . They also have a small patio.

The staff was very friendly and prompt. They even saw my baby nephew without a drink, and they were nice enough to bring him an apple juice box. Shows a lot about a place they do the small things that matter a whole lot. And to top it off. The food was soooooo DELICIOUS. We drove 1.5 hours, and we will definitely be returning!

Amazing breakfast tacos and staff🤗

I didn't have high hopes. It's in a shopping center. The outside is kinda old looking. How could they keep the quality being open 24/7? But what a pleasant surprise. The inside was clean. The staff was welcoming. The food was great, authentic, and consistent.

Wonderful staff at Jabastian's. Friendly waitresses. The food is excellent. I had Caldo de Res. The best I have ever eaten. Definitely worth the trip. The prices were great. Take time and go try Jabastian's.

This place has amazing food and the service is great as well. Portion size is great for the cost.

I just come for the menudo, I've been coming here for 6 years and the margaritas are really good! 😊

Best fajitas ever!!!! You have to try their Gordita's and costillas too. I have gone to many places but Jabastians are the only ones that make traditional aguas frescas. Definitely recommend.

Everything and everyone was great. I will be coming back again and will tell others to come taste the food and enjoy the service. The waitresses were very nice and the food came out timely.

Really good experience. Our server Yolanda was attentive and professional. -Doc

good food and very cheap, friendly waiters and fast cooks, open 24 hours so very convenient

Great cooked Salsa! Great.tasting food, dishes. Good service, a world of difference than Don rey-

I absolutely love the food and service here! I frequent this restaurant so much that I receive the extra special customer service that I greatly appreciate! Good money spent and yummy to my tummy!!! I get the breakfast tacos! Fresh tortillas and bacon cooked to perfection! Fresh juice! The sweet lady suggested fresh apple juice and it was delicious! The charro beans always hit home!!! And the shrimp tacos nice snack when I need to kill a hunger pain!! I suggest you stop in and enjoy!

The food is Soo goood I only been there 2 twice and I never get disappointed

Great friendly encouraging service. It's easy spending more money here, but you won't feel bad about it, because you will be too busy saying: "OMG THIS IS DELICIOUS!" They have a pretty good selection on the menu, including shrimp, and it's a great place for groups or if you want a lively environment. Compliments to the chef for sure!

First time coming here and the service was wonderful. My waitress was so very sweet and patient. She kept coming to make sure me and my mom were satisfied with a smile. The food was do very good that we finished it very satisfied. Will definitely be dining here again !!!

The food is amazing. Never had anything that wasn't great. Nice low-key atmosphere. My only complaint is the huge square dishes.

Some of the best Micheladas in town. I walked in not expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised. My drink was excellent and food was beyond what I hoped for.

Excellent food and service. This place follows the protocol for covid so you can feel absolutely safe and comfortable.

Esmeralda Grimaldo

My husband love the costillas , the service is always excellent, Yolanda our waitress is always very polite respectful and friendly. Every time we go there to eat there is not complains and also the restaurant is open 24 hours , we are night owls perfect for us

Where is Waldo?

Ended up getting a fajita Torta and the Shrimp enchiladas. Food was good and the servers were very attentive. Food didn't take long to come out. Overall a good eating experience.

They serve the best Tacos! As an introvert and picky person my favorite taco is eggs and potato with cheese and beans wrap with flower tortillas and a coffee. I recommend going and trying out their Taquitos. Other food I get is Torta sin crema and Caldo de res and Fajita yum yum yum it’s the best in my opinion. Try it out!

Lucian Sariel

Wonderful experience here. Erica who was my waitress made every detail of the service extra special. She even charged my phone for while i ate. This place is quiet and enjoyable. If you want music they have that to.

Maileen Nunez

This is the best place to try real authentic Mexican food! Everything is amazing from the food, the service to the atmosphere - very clean and nice music! Great prices for quality food! Kudos to the chef - he even came to check on us! 100% Recommended!

Jeremiah Brennen

I driven by this place a million times, never knew the food was so good! The service is excellent as well, I recommend them.

Rosie Moreno

First time visit & it was awesome...we will be going more often! Edit: 9/9/22- We have now been coming regularly since my first review. I love that I can order breakfast anytime of the day. As usual the food was excellent & the staff is very friendly!

Bella CM

I really love this place and I forget about it sometimes when I am looking for a place to eat. I don't know why and I won't again. It's soo good and the waitresses are so kind, I mean genuinely kind. I can order in my broken Spanish and they help me out when I am saying it incorrectly and happy I am trying to order in Spanish. We ordered the Camarones a la Plancha, Huaraches de fajita and appetizer funido de camarones, all with corn tortillas. Wow so delicious! It's amazing the great food this little taqueria delivers to the table! All we needed was a beautiful beach and we would have thought we were eating at a fancy place on a beach in Mexico!! I don't drink alcohol but looks like they have a full bar for Margarita , Michelada lovers. Very clean place, even have a few seats outside, the staff wears masks! So close to home and good prices, can't believe I almost went to a fast food place! Cheers and Peace out!

Food is really good. Waitress only came to take my order, give me my food then pick up our plates. They all stood talking together. Very rude waitress questioned when I told her my order wasn't right. The lady who took my order said she accidentally wrote it wrong.

Excellent night shift service, the waitresses are very attentive and do a very good job👏🏼 , only the cashier at the front desk does not serve as well, shouts a lot, is late a lot and answers you with a bad attitude , I would say thats the only terrible service I had that day, but the rest was pretty good I loved the food and would definitely like to come back with my family and friends.

I usually go when it's quiet. The staff is friendly and my food cones out fast. Tastes pretty good.

The food here is amazing. Takes a while to come out though. I don't mind the wait but I'm obviously expecting it when I come. The wait staff is decent. They don't often speak English but that doesn't stop them from checking on you. Overall if your looking for something authentic you should definitely visit.

I did an Uber Eats order, they forgot the customer drink. I also let the customer down, because I didn't double check. They were nice and kind.

Really enjoy the food here, had the chicken mole which reminded me of Mexico. The enchiladas are really good also. They run happy hour specials and have delicious deserts. Service is usually good as well. Will be back.

I thought the food was great. I had the chicken quesadillas with rice and beans. My friend got the Pechuga Al Cilantro which looked better than mine. I will try that next time.

This place has always been on point when it comes down to comfort Mexican food. Service and food is fairly quick and all the times I have visited he's been pleasant.

The food was delicious, but the water had a really weird taste.

24 hours/ 365. Friendly servers. Love the cantaloupe juice. Reasonable prices.

Not bad for a late night dining. It opens 24/7. My recent experiences were very different from 9 years ago when it first opened. Food wasn't so good after midnight. Service was okay.

I’ve been here many times. Always great prices and good food. Good tacos and yummy appetizers! However, If you’re in the mood for menudo it’s worth noting they do not make their menudo soup with hominy (such a bummer).

My hubby and I always drive by here; but we've never stopped to eat. Let's just say week before last was awesome. I'm so glad we ate here. The service and food was great and our waitress was attentive. I will point out the price that is displayed on the menu is different from what was on our receipt.... Still I loved it here and I will be revisiting this spot

Food is great. The cooks keep this place from going out of business. The service is not great . We had 3 waitresses during our one visit and the last one was very sweet but not well trained. Still, we will return for the meneudo!

It wasn’t bad at all, I tried the parrillada and I didn’t like the taste of the meet .

I really enjoy the food but I hate having to wait there until they decide to attend me! It take nearly 30 mins sitting in the table just so they can take your order! My best suggestion is to call and place your order for pick up !

Food is great and the restaurant would get 5 stars, if it wasn't for the waitstaff. The girls are rude, roll their eyes, and ignore your requests. Doesn't matter if you speak Spanish to them or not. If they think your not Hispanic your gonna get piss poor service. Wont be going back.

Casual sit down with waiter service. Had the 3 enchilada plate: cheese, chicken, and fajita beef. All 3 were good but I loved the fajita beef enchilada the best. The floor under the table was a little grungy and the women's bathroom could use some cleaning.

Very very busy! Mother's Day dinner rush! 3 stars only because it took so long to make a to-go order at the bar. One waitress attended to me as best as she could. I ordered 3 dishes but somehow I ended up with only 2. I didn't want to wait for them to fix the other meal so I paid for what I had and left. Food was good though.

Average... Food was ok. Good portions. Good size margaritas.

Food gets 5 starts delicious perfect temperature cant get enough.. Service 1 star I call my waitress and I felt ignored

Shawn Alexander

Pros: Great friendly wait staff. Cons: Literally, everything else. While the wait staff was very friendly I asked a question about the daily special and the waitress went blank as if shed never considered someone would ask such a question, excused herself and went ask about the special. The food; When the plate arrived I had high hopes! It looked beautiful but looks can unfortunately be deceiving, it was bland! Beans, np flavor, rice, no flavor and the beef enchiladas? You guessed it, no flavor! It wasn't bad mind you, just so look boring, I didn't finish my plate and I love Mexican food, this however was very disappointing. Finally after pushing my plate away I waited for 11 minutes for my check, stopped another waitress (mine was missing in action at this point) asked her for my check, she disappeared and reappeared 2 or 3 minutes later to tell me, it would be another 5 minutes! To be fair it was only another 2 minutes before my waitress finally escaped whatever prison she'd fallen into to bring me my check with the prettiest smile on her lovely face.I tipped her generously and paid my check but no matter how lovely her smile, it did not make up for the bland tasteless meal I'd endured.

08/29/2017 Tuesday 🗓 Ahhhhh.... YESSSSS!!! 😈 It's FINALLY & OFFICIALLY done!!! 🙆🏻🍻🎈🎉🎉🎉 Celebrating THE END of hurricane Harvey!!!!! 🚗👫🍾😵🌮🌯🍲😋🍽💖 It has been - an absolutely disturbing, stressful, overwhelming & nightmares/nature disaster {Harvey} this time around 🙀💨⛈🌪☔️ Hoping everyone's okay & will ALL be recover soon from all the CRAZINESS that we had for the past few days!!! 💗

Last time I go there order 2. menudos to go when I got home there were no condiments in the bag this is the second time. Good thing Arandas is across the street. And all the tacos were cold. Bad Bad cooks.

Worst caldo de res ever extrémele bland no flavor , no color, nothing very dissatisfied. Nothing like before thank god we got our money back but the cook really needs help in the back. Would like to come back but not for food with no type of flavor.

Placed an ordered and told the lady twice I did not want onions on my tacos. She even agreed. When I get there, she asked me what i ordered and i told her 3 fajita tacos with no onions. And then she gives me a bitchy look and says “honey, you never told me that you didn’t want onions, I can place another order but you are going to pay extra.” It’s not my fault you are incoherent to directions. 2 stars because The food is alright. But service is bad.

The food tasted GREAT, however the kitchen lacks organizations. Our pkates were NOT Brought out at the same time. On the contrary they wete brought out approx 10 to 15 apart. We spent all day at one meal. Because of the delay time of the plates. Also, the waitress never asked if we needed anything else. I was very disappointed on our first visit.

I had the flautas, they barely any chicken in them. The plating of the food was beautiful. Service was good. All went well, until I went to the bathroom and saw an employee leave without washing her hands. She was the one who brought our limes. OMG! That ruined it for me. This is how disease gets passed.

Too pricey for smaller portions and staff polite but kinda ignores you Hall the time, never filled water cup. Not much checking on you. Long wait for orders. Others got preferential treatment. Had to ask for bill. not many thank yous .Slow, slow slow.

Mildred Say

I love chilaquiles ,but here Im so disappointed, I feel that Im been charge to get a big plate with chips and the salsa I already had on the table. They don't do an effort to make a salsa for the chilaquiles. They just get the chips and salsa and put it on a big plate and call it chilaquiles. I would had just stuf my self with chips and salsa and only pay for a drink . Waitress gave good service

Kathleen Khadijah Meeks

I have tried many Mexican restaurants, first time I ever had cube enchiladas, ugh..small servings for a child not an adult. Sorry not impressed at all. And Wow for 1 person $27.00. First and last

Horrible service food is under seasoned and staff barely speaks English and the manager can't speak with you because she on the phone with her dad. Brought the plate out 3 times and it was incorrect and the plates that were sent back the staff are them at the bar while you watched them and you still did not have my plate

The service was awful - slow, no water, no silverware and the waitress just stood at the table and stared with no words. The margaritas were just syrup and it seemed offensive to the waitress when they were sent back. Our beef fajita nachos were tough and rubbery but the worst - the horrible and sexually offensive rap being played. Will never return or suggest it.

The service is ok. Every time I go there I always order the same thing a Gordita with lots of salsa verde. I like to eat the gordita with lots of salsa verde. If I don’t have salsa verde I can’t digested. But every time I order to pick up you guys like to charge me $1.00 for extra salsa. I just don’t get it what’s the difference of picking up/ eating inside the restaurant. Management has to do something about this because I’m a regular customer maybe you have more people. I understand is a business. But salsa should be free. Anyways this past Saturday my sister order enchiladas for pickup. Because she was taking those enchiladas to someone else. as soon as she Walked out of the door she checked her food. She had some weird fried tortillas wrapped with no color on them. With tons of cheeese in the top. Also she said “enchiladas” smell disgusting. Well she sent a picture of the food to the person she was gonna take it too. She said they were not appetizing to returned them back. Well 5minutes later my sister went inside the restaurant she spoke with one of the waitress there. The girl said she could not return them because they had already made them. That shou couldn’t give my sister the money back. This is rediculous!!!!!

Very bad service the waitress almost hit us and she was angry because we were laughing

Well I was for over 30 mins and the waitress hasn’t even come asks for the drinks Like do I have to be in a certain way to be served?? I had to go and tell them if I had to order in front or what Then o had to wait another 30 mins to be asked what I wanted to eat That’s how they want to be tipped? Like no!!!! You work for your tips and these people and working for it But one of the waiters called Nena she is the Best hahaha

I got a burrito with a side of rice and beans, 2 small quesadillas and a shrimp cocktail no drinks and spend $40 bucks! Food was overly priced and nasty. No flavor whatsoever. The meat had allot of fat and to top it off they through in a raw shrimp in my cocktail it was still gray. We were so disappointed. Never ever coming here again.

The server who claims is the manager is I'll prepared and has zero customer service knowledge. She has consistently been our server last three times we have visited. It is our last. We love the food. The service is below mediocre. We will not be back. Ya'll suck!!!

Empty place not what it used to be food was gross and greasy felt like I got a platter of oil on my food I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Also the quality of the food for the price it isn't worth it best go somewhere else

I just called twice to place an order but the lady told me twice to hold on. I can hear all their conversation in the background them arguing with a customer about their bill. Never will I try placing on order there. Didn't want to go to McDonald's but since I'm starving now and it's next to them I have to !! So disappointed

The food was great... But if i would rate the service it would get 0 stars... The service was awful. I never did find out who our waitress was.. And the 2 ladys that did end serving us were sooo rude its ridiculous.... Our food was not even serve complete..... I asked for a drink never even got it. Service wise I DONOT RECOMEND THIS PLACE

Mary Elana was rude. Refused access with service dog. Demanded registration card that is not required by federal or state law. I was only asking for menus to eat on the patio with my 82 year old father. Staff was standing around. After being told we would be waited on, no one ever came out to give water or take our order. I will NEVER go here again! I just moved to this neighborhood and I was looking forward to trying a nearby Mexican restaurant. This will not be the one!

It was a horrible experience, they have such bad customer service. My boyfriend and I went there first thing we went into the place no one helped us then the lady that approached us to take our order didn’t even welcome us was so rude, besides that all the waitresses look so lazy and unprofessional they really need to improve the service at this place not only that but also the food needs to be improved.

The food always has something wrong. They don't have hygiene whatsoever. We found hair inside our food more than once and it looks like they don't care since it keeps happening. I would never go back because I'm sure it will happen again.

Lately I'm been coming to this place since 2001 when was called Ruchis , Now with this restaurant name jabastian before Covi-19 was a very nice place , Now is a very disappointed place to have any meal . Waitress don't care about the costumer , they worries about their tip . Managers don't even have management skills , this place turned so pathetic . Wich I would not recommend to any one . I always tip good to those are humble and good person. Like Karen from Honduras , the Venezuelan too and Cristina the new girl . Listenn you presence is not important you tip does .

Don't order from here. It may be a coincidence but after leaving this place with my friend. The next day, she got notified that someone was trying to buy something using her card. She immediately shut off her card and got a new one. She hasn't bought anything prior or after we left the restaurant. Which is suspicious and we theorize that it may be this place. It doesn't help that the people there were looking at us weirdly. If you're going to eat here, make sure to use cash instead of card. Just beware.

Order here online. My order came late and totally wrong, I tried to contact the store and after 3 calls they wouldn’t pick up.

The person that served this should be ashamed of how poorly they put this nasty food with a moldy avocado on sale will you eat this yourself this was the worst food

I have been coming to this place for 5 years, I really like the food here, this time was no different, but something really disgusting happened to me, after leaving the place I realized that they had altered the receipt, adding more money to what I had left as a tip, and adding it to the charge on my card, nobody likes to be robbed, I do not recommend the place.

They charged me more than $10 extra for my food and everything came out very overcooked.

I just recently started working in the area and I wanted to try this restaurant. I sat at the bar waiting for my food to be prepared to go. I went to area to check out to pay for my food because, I changed my mind and I wanted my food to go instead. When I returned to get my suit jacket I noticed that one of the waitress had spilled green salsa all over my jacket. When I tried to bring to the Manager on duty she seemed like she was more interested in checking other customers receipts orders out she looked through the glass window and kept up the receipts in her hand. I walked back to the area where I was sitting and grabbed my jacket and started walking towards the front door entrance and she walked towards me and I out of the restaurant after I had paid my bill. I will never ever step foot inside of this place ever again. As far as I am concerned my suit is completely ruined. One waitress was about to use a dingy old dish towel try and remove the salsa after she saw me about leave at that point the damage had already been done.

I use to love the chimichangas here but, they're not consistent anymore. I order on uber eats and my rice/beans, sides and queso just come all mixed together. Also, my most recent chimichanga came with a cut in the middle of it like someone was doing an autopsy. Guess ya'll don't want my money anymore. 🤷‍♀️

Now I'm so upset about this restaurant 😒 so first IS TO EXPENSIVE LOOK THE TACOS 3.50 LMAOO I BEEN EATING IN MANY Mexican restaurants but this one is the king of bad service and bad food!!! The cocktail has only five shrimp 🍤 very poor service so my son ordered a small limone the cost is 4,50!! I NEVER COME BACK TO THIS RESTAURANT HELL NOT AS U CAN SEE Y MAY RECIPE 5 TACOS ONE COCKTAIL E DRINKS AND ONE MICHELLADA 57 dollars 😅

If you’re African-American don’t eat here unless you want to be treated unfairly‼️ You don’t have to scroll too far to see from reviews from other African American customers that have experienced HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE from this place. haven’t visited nor heard of this place before My friend bought me here last night. We were hungry and my friend mentioned there’s a place that’s opened 24 hours. Great!!! So my friend goes to find a parking spot and I, went in to use the restroom. I waited for the hostess to meet me so I could to ask where’s the restroom was,before I could even finish my sentence she immediately she says “NO”. I wondered why, I had a mask on & I read the sign upon entering that restroom are for guest only. I tell her we’re planning to order, and my friend was outside parking and I needed to use the restroom quickly. She allowed me to go. Upon exiting the restroom, I spot the hostess and manager telling my friend that the establishment is closed. There’s a huge sign outside the building that says “Open 24 Hours” and there are still people inside all before midnight. I immediately recognize that staff doesn’t want to serve us , for no apparent reason. I escorted my friend out because she wanted to know how come they didn’t want to serve us and she frequent this establishment often. I however, know when I’m not welcomed and I won’t waste my time proving otherwise. So as we left the manager locks the door behind us. If family and friends were to ask me about this place, I wouldn’t think twice referring them to somewhere else. Glad we didn’t spend our money here. Waitstaff and management need to do better.

This is not an authentic Mexican restaurant as we thought and the Tex-Mex flavor wasn’t in there a bit disappointing the tortillas from the enchiladas looked rubbery

I would give this place zero stars if I could. We came in on Saturday night and the service was beyond pathetic. Our server, Lupita, was completely non-existent. She didn’t come to our table a single time after we were seated. We were ignored the entire night while she lounged around. When we finally tried to get some help, Rosabel joined in and it turned into a total confrontation. Rosabel was incredibly rude and actually tried to gang up on my cousin. They had the nerve to ask my cousin if she was "slow," which is hilarious because my cousin is a professional server herself and knows exactly how a restaurant should be run. To make matters worse, the whole issue was over a cheese we didn’t touch. It is unprofessional, toxic, and xenophobic to insult customers right to their faces. If you want to be insulted and ignored, this is the place for you. Otherwise, stay far away.

We saw the good reviews and gave them a try. The menus had a few items where the prices were covered over with a black marker and a new illegible price was wrote in. We would have asked more questions but there was a language barrier, we don't speak Spanish and our waitress had very little english. Unless the new prices were double the old ones....we were overcharged for our drinks and meals. Two of us got the pechuga a la parrilla, $9.99 originally, I loved my chile relleno, $9.99, another friend got the beef and chicken parrilladas at $17.99, the beef was flavorful but the chicken was not, we had three mixed drinks at 7 bucks apiece......the written receipt the waitress showed my wife and promptly took back was for over 80 dollars.....we will not be returning.
