Jesus's Mexican Grill — Restaurant in Troy

To start with: "churros" does not mean 1 churro cut into 2 pieces, especially for $5. That said—I almost went back and bought another because it was so damn delicious.

Now that my only demerit is out of the way, please let me say that you should 100000% go here. This restaurant to me is like someone finally capitalized on the idea of taking Taco Bell's menu and making it with good, top notch ingredients, and it is PERFECTION. To start with, we got the crunchwrap with beef, the seasonal birria ramen with chicken and a boiled egg added on, the grilled cheese tacos with chicken and pico, a side of guac and cup of Jamaica. The top item was the crunchwrap, the ramen was super rich and creative, and the tacos were great but not as good as the crunchwrap. Surprisingly—the guac was good but not necessary, everything else already had plenty of flavor and the hot sauce was so tasty. We saved room for dessert and had the aforementioned churro that looked burnt and tasted like childhood (cinnamon toast as a churro!!) and horchata, and were still hungry after the churro (the only item I can complain that was lacking portion-wise) so went back to order the flan (also stellar!!).

I can't wait to come back and try more stuff. I plan to eat through the whole menu eventually. And I have hopes that one day the churro will multiply into actually churros because I wanted...

Got take out here last night after finding out about Jesus on my seemingly endless search for 'food near me'

I was a little weary about going to a new Mexican place because I've been burned before but decided to give it a shot and I'm glad I did!! I got the grilled cheese burrito which was super flavorful and the steak wasn't chewy ! It was tender and easy to eat as a burrito should be.

I also got Yuca and Fried plantains, both were excellent although the plantains were served with a mayonnaise sauce which I thought was a strange pairing but I did try it together and thought it was alright but might not be for me, I did like dipping my yuca in the plantain mayonnaise.

My boyfriend said the carnitas was tender and flavorful, the flan was also so creamy and perfect!!! Not eggy at all

The only thing I'd say I didn't like was the elote as I felt like it was undercooked and needed more seasoning, I did not taste any tajin on it but there was some sort of red seasoning on it that didn't really taste like much to me.

But overall I had a really good experience and enjoyed 99% of my food which is more than I can say for other take out spots around town.

If they added Chomoyada to their menu in the summer I'll definitely become a frequent regular 👀👀 I'm really dying to get my hands on a good one...

Holy smokes! As a latino who grew up in south, south, south Texas this is definitely a find in Troy!!!! So glad I got to bring parents here while they were visiting from the valley. The portion are huge at least for the grilled chicken burrito and the Superrrr wet burrito. The Mexican rice and pinto beans reminded me of home. 10 out of 10 a spot that taste a little like home! We plan to come back for taco Tuesday and torta Thursday!!!

This review has been edited 2 days after our first visit and spending $90 for meal and tip. Trying to go back and and try this place out on taco Tuesday for their $2 chicken tacos. Tried the special on uber, doordash, on their website and after not being able to find it after they said it was there i tried to call and pay over the phone. A simple order. 3 chicken tacos and take my money. The man spent more time on the phone telling me that he was busy and that it was online the to back track and say it's for walkins only. He could have placed my ordered, took my money and I bowould be on my way to pick up. This was a massive bummer after stopping by for the first time...
