Taqueria El Jacalito

Amazing taco spot. Delicious street tacos on handmade Tortillas. Great selection of bottled drinks imported from mexico. Cute diner set up and tons of booth seating. Staff went above and beyond with customer service. Keep your eye out for specials, I happen to show up during Taco Tuesday and all my tacos were half the price.

The style and vibe of the diner is just like that of a diner in the 1950s but with a Chicano/Mexican vibe to it. It’s a really nice place and they sell Mexican Coca Cola which I think is a huge plus since it’s made with real sugar cane. This is one of my go-to spots forsure

Amazing food and service! Tacos were served on handmade tortillas! Their salsas are a great balance of heat and flavor. Add this place to your "must try" taquerias in Salem!

The server was extremely friendly and genuine. The food was good. The place was well kept. I can’t think of anything to say other than this is a solid place to get food. Seems like whoever runs the place cares about making it good

Wanted something quick that I could walk to. Walked in and was greeted warmly by the lovely senorita. I made the order for 4 of each of the street tacos. While we waited she seated us and gave us beans and fresh chips along with their red and green salsas. Most of the beans my baby ate while the wife and I enjoyed both of the salsas and chips. I plan on trying everything on their menu. This is a place to visit.

Having visited again with our little one. We got beans and cheese for the baby to munch on while we waited.
Everything I have had has been fresh and tasty. The flavor really comes through in the salsa.
