Book NowAbout Jalapeno
Jalapeno shakes up Sanur with punchy modern Mexican plates, ice-cold tequila cocktails, and rich beef birria made for dunking. Fresh corn tortillas come loaded with char and citrus, while the kitchen plays with inventive twists like rich birria spiked with bone marrow, tuna tostadas, and cheese-stuffed fried jalapeños. Diners consistently talk up the deep, savoury consommé served steaming alongside the tacos. The room stays relaxed and low-lit—staff set down complimentary glasses of vaso de agua de la casa before shaking up spicy margaritas con hielo.
- Rich Birria & Consommé: Crisp tacos paired with deeply seasoned dipping broth, with bone marrow additions featured on the menu.
- Modern Mexican Twists: Inventive plates feature cheese-stuffed fried jalapeños, yellowfin tuna tostadas, and soft-shell crab tacos.
- Tequila & Agave Cocktails: The bar pours well-balanced spicy margaritas on the rocks alongside creative coconut tequila serves.
