EL JALISCO – Mexican
Dogwood Drive, Milton: a Santa Rosa County dining room from a panhandle Mexican family chain, open late morning to half nine and an hour later on Fridays and Saturdays. The menu is deliberately long. Tableside guacamole and fuego nachos to begin, then carnitas dinner, chimichanga platter, flautas, street tacos across seven fillings including birria and al pastor, Mexican lasagna, sizzling fajitas and a build-your-own combo. Weeknights carry their own specials, from Mexican chicken to Quesadilla El J's. Diners talk about the staff as much as the food. Gift cards and pick-up ordering are available. Big plates, small prices, no pretence.
