Los Jilgueros - El Arenal

This is a place where all Mexicans would go for a great and authentic no overpriced Mexican traditional food. If you are not Mexican, please go!

It is a place where only locals would know and they rarely speak English to visitors. Tour buses do not come near this place, although it is on the road from Tequila back to Guadalajara, but it was a nice pleasant place for a simple meal. Standard meat dishes and Mexican dishes, they do not decorate that its a Mexican place. It's like Irish bars in Ireland. They're all Irish and they're not doing anything to tell you. They are served afteros with large bowls of salsa, a spicy and the other spicy and hot. I had a pig in a tomato cream sauce that was probably cooked for many hours, so the meat fell apart with my fork. Not bad and just slightly above average.
