El Jalisco Wewahitchka — Restaurant in Wewahitchka

We typically come in to town 3 times a year and stay for about a week each time. We were looking forward to something new/different in the area. We decided to go there for dinner after our 6 hour drive. We knew it was at the old Honey Hole location. Entrance was a little confusing as you had to go through the covered front porch area to get inside the main restaurant. We were seated quickly as they weren’t busy. They brought us chips and salsa. My husband saw the note on the menu about the first two baskets of chips being free and then anything after that is $5 a basket. I do somewhat understand this could be to deter waste as well as to deter people from coming in to just sit and each free chips and salsa, but my family of 5 eats a lot of chips and salsa and two baskets didn’t do much but we did not want to pay $5 for another basket. Prices were comparable to others back home. Some things seemed cheaper but they were also smaller. Our favorite Mexican restaurant back home has a huge bowl of cheese dip for $9 and their cheese dip is $6 but for a pretty small dish. Small side of sour cream was $2.. mom got nachos with shrimp instead of beef or chicken and they said it would be an upcharge.. that ended up being almost $7 for the upcharge on top of the already $14 nachos so it was like getting charged for the nachos as if they still came with one of the other meats PLUS the added shrimp. Then the shrimp nachos came and there was no cheese dip like on the other nachos so my mom had to end up getting another $6 cheese dip to put in them.. Food was pretty good. Meats were seasoned well. Glad for the addition to the area and hope they can stay busy. They may want to rethink some of their business model (the $5 for the extra baskets of chips, etc) we would probably come again just bc we like Mexican food...

El Jalisco is EXCELLENT! A wonderful addition to Wewa. Before them, I was a regular at Peppers in Port St. Joe. Not anymore. El Jalisco is much better, more affordable, bigger portions, and the staff is a lot more attentive and caring. The manager also really seems to care about his staff, always helping them during busy times, and doing extra work on the side. I...

Me and my family lives in Wewahitchka and tonight was the first time we ate El Jalisco and when we walked in we were politely shown to our booth, our waiter was on point from start to finish.
