Taqueria Jalapenos

Cuisine: Latin, Mexican

10Best Says

This small taqueria is just outside of downtown Fort Myers on the busy US41. Even with its bright green color, it is still easy to speed past. The parking lot can be brutal getting in to but it is worth the effort for the authentic Mexican fare and $1.50 tacos. Jalapeno's menu is loaded with items you would expect like tortas, flautas, burritos, fajitas, enchiladas and carne asada. Don't pass up the chips, hot and sturdy, and the salsa, with chunks of tomatoes, fresh cilantro and lots of flavor. Order a cold beer to wash it down and you can have a satisfying meal for around ten dollars.
