February Dates to Remember

At El Jalapenos, we believe that every day is a reason to celebrate, especially during the month of February. We celebrate National Margarita Day on February 22nd and National Tortilla Chip Day on February 24th. We also want to remind our customers that Lent begins on Ash Wednesday, March 1st. During this time, we offer many fish and vegetarian dishes that we are sure you would enjoy.
