Built on Word of Mouth
Los Jalapeno Brothers started as a neighborhood spot on North Ayer Street in Harvard, Illinois — and grew into something people drive thirty miles for, one plate at a time.
We had a wonderful experience. The perfect place to get Mexican before or after the train. Our server, Melanie, made sure we would make our train and was so friendly.
The asada burrito is so tasty and will leave you full. They had delicious churro cheesecake samples. I love grabbing a burrito here when I’m visiting!
The place was very nice, I liked it and would come back. The food was excellent, I loved the shrimp cocktail, and the customer service was very kind, especially from Melany.
