It is always a nice experience at Mi Jacalito: you get chips with salsa and a fresh, hot chicken noodle soup with your meal. The tacos are my favorite in Racine-- especially the al pastor tacos! The service is always top!

Hands down the best Mexican food in Racine!! I’ve never been to Mexico, but it’s decorated so festively inside and makes us feel like we’re in another place! The soup that comes with some dinners is very tasty too. You won’t be disappointed!
