👍👍 I stopped here during my road trip for my hiking YouTube channel "Beyond the Pavement". I had some of the best shrimp stew I've ever had my life. The flavor was amazing. Clean restaurant and friendly staff. Definitely going to come back here next time I'm in town. People often mention burrito, good, breakfast, service,

    I love trying new places, especially Mexican food. I've wanted to try Jacobo's for a while and finally had the chance this afternoon after the Veterans Day Parade. Unfortunately, after all the hype, I was really disappointed. I ordered the burrito plate that sounded like it was going to be a fabulous golden burrito stuffed with fajita steak, topped with queso and slices of avacodo, with a bed of mexican rice. Unfortunately, all I received was a lack luster burrito. My 2.5 yr old daughter wanted onion rings, and those were fabulous! My 1.5 yr old son wanted french fries...those were also very good. For a Mexican food place, their American food was better. Don't get me wrong, my burrito was decent, but nothing to brag about. Bottom line, I wouldn't go there again.

    Service was ok, just overpriced. 12.00 for a burger, 11 for biscuits and gravy. I feel as though this was truck stop quality food for the fine dining price, it is just not worth it to me. Probably not coming here again.

    Jacobo's Cafe was good. It wasn't "write home to your family" amazing, but it was good. Will I come back here? Yes. Will I go out of my way to come back here? No. The service was a little slow, but good. The food was okay. My barbacoa plate wasn't very hot when it came out, and the queso was very thin and runny... like too much milk or something? The decor was good, and the place was clean, the meal was just a *little* more expensive than I had thought it would be. Solid 3 stars.

    Never been here before and I arrived after calling 30 min ahead of time, still waited for about 10 min but the workers were nice. I was disappointed when I got my food, hasbrowns were paper thin and rubbery/full of oil it was hard to tear them apart even with a knife. My sausage was way over cooked and hard. Menudo was eh, not much flavor. It was busy but these are all things that could be improved and give out better quality. Probably won’t order again from here.

    My husband and I had combo omelets. They were wonderful, eggs were fluffy. The service was just as good. Atmosphere was inviting. We will definitely come back..

    What a bummer! Ate here a few times during the week and the food and service were great… not sure what the deal was today… salty tacos, bland rice and the server acted like they didn’t want to be there… the beans, queso, and green chip sauce were awesome.

    Delicious food! Good coffee (not bitter instead smooth). Vegetables were available for breakfast! Veggie omelet and home fries (with veggies) were among the best i have eaten. And friendly, happy, tentative staff. Coffee refills frequent. Seems like a well run business. Thank you. :)

    I got a sausage breakfast burrito with hashbrowns and cheese sticks... I ate the whole burrito.. Now the hashbrowns had some kind of weird slimey texture to it. Didn't eat it.. Cheese sticks were cooked a little bit too fast.. Overall the burrito got the job done lol

    This is my favorite place to have breakfast! The owner treats his guests like family, and the food is amazing.

    I took myself out for a birthday breakfast one Saturday go Jacobo's Cafe. I was greeted and seated as I walked in the door. My waiter was amazing while I looked over the menu. And my food was prepared and served quickly! Super delicious and a comfortable environment. Thank you, Jacobo's for a great birthday breakfast!

    I placed a to go order for a breakfast burrito with no egg the burrito still had egg in it when i went back in to have it replaced i received a burrito with RAW BACON. I understand you all may have been busy but to serve someone something raw is unacceptable!!! Not to mention i paid $16 and change for two burritos

    Stopped in on our way home to Ft Worth. The food was good. The pancakes are really good. My wife had the barbacoa burrito, she said it was good. It was definitely a big burrito. Not too fond of the hashbrowns, they were tortilla thin, they were smashed flat and hard to pull apart so I had to cut with a knife. But everything else was good. Staff was friendly and attentive. We came in around 10am and were the only ones in the place so our service was quick.

    Very nice service. Very good Tex-Mex. We didn't get the most popular item. The pancakes must be out of this world. I had the Chili Rellenos and it was delicious. My wife had the enchiladas, one of her favorite foods, and she was impressed. Reasonable prices.

    Small family run restaurant with a wide selection of offerings. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. A nicely decorated, clean and well kept interior giving it a friendly and cosey feel, helped by friendly attentive staff. Well worth a visit for anyone. We’re considering making it a regular breakfast/lunch stop.

    I don’t usually leave negative reviews but this place is ridiculous. We waited for our food for an hour and then only got part of the order. We had to just cancel the order after another 10 mins of waiting and our food was getting cold while waiting on our sons food.
