Authentic Mexican eatery & market; birria, chicharrones, & margaritas
"It’s a supermarket with a bountiful butcher’s counter, but La Jalisciense is also a notable dining destination in Southwest Detroit. In addition to its quality Mexican breakfast menu, chicharrones prepared daily, and full-service bar, diners feast on plates of tacos with birria de chivo (goat stew), carnitas, beef tongue, and other traditional protein fillings. The taqueria accepts online orders." - Serena Maria Daniels
"It’s a supermarket with a bountiful butcher’s counter and house-made chicharrones. But La Jalisciense has also made a name for itself as a dining destination. The restaurant features standbys like tacos, quesadillas, and tortas, along with a decent breakfast menu with Mexican favorites like huevos rancheros, birria de chivo (goat), and a full-service bar. The multi-generational family-owned business also pays attention to the latest trends in Mexican cuisine. Recent specials have included a quesadilla prepared with fresh masa and a michelada with house blueberry juice. Online ordering is available." - Serena Maria Daniels
"It’s a supermarket with a bountiful butcher’s counter on one side and a full-service restaurant on the other, featuring one of the best Mexican breakfast options in town. Chilaquiles in salsa verde, huevos rancheros, birria de chivo, weekend-only menudo and coffee, a variety of agua frescas, or margaritas and micheladas make for the ideal morning destination — whether for a morning meeting or the weekend hangover cure. Insider tip, add the house specialty, cecina — flavorful thinly cut beef — to a plate of chilaquiles verdes. The large dining area is an ideal destination for large families and also features a full bar. Plan ahead an order online." - Serena Maria Daniels
"This carniceria, supermarket, and restaurant has a little bit of everything to satisfy one’s cravings for traditional Mexican. In particular, its birria is made in the old-style way found in the highlands of Jalisco: with goat. While a growing number of taquerias, food trucks, and pop-up operators have gone all-in on the nationwide birria craze of the past few years, most spots around town use beef. Not here. The birria at La Jalisciense is marinated in chiles, salt, and other spices and cooked low and slow for a rich, meaty flavor. Get it as a caldo with a side of corn tortillas, diced onions, and cilantro or in taco form. Grab your meal to-go by ordering online." - Serena Maria Daniels
