One of my favorite places. Wow. I tried this place back in March and was very impressed. The food is amazing! I
Poor service. My wife wanted to go to Jibarra just for the ravioli and drinks. She ordered ravioli but when her dinner arrived, she received a dish that she did not order. It was shrimp and onions with green sauce. We told the waitress that it was incorrect and she took the plate, walked about 5 feet turned around and said "sorry, we are out of ravioli I forgot to tell you-go ahead and give this plate a try, if you don't like it I will bring you something else". My wife didn't like it and took one bite. The waitress avoided coming back over to our table and acted like nothing could possibly be wrong. We are very passive, usually and this time was no different. We were so surprised at the unusual poor service that we will probably never go back-this was out third visit. Oh I forgot to mention that she asked if we wanted a "to go" box for the uneaten dinner. If you get "Linzi" as your server, run!…
Has gone down in quality.
I would have given this restaurant 4 or 5 stars last year. I used to go all the time, bring friends and family from out of town, absolutely loved it.
But I went today since they have reformulated their menu, and I think it's really gone down in quality. They no longer offer the basket of fresh tortillas with their tacos, which I loved, and the shrimp in the shrimp tacos seemed to more of a cheap, food-service quality rather than the good, larger shrimp they had before. The "mashed potato-poblano" side was bland with hardly any poblanos at all.
I'm so disappointed, because I was Jibarra's biggest fan last year, and the new menu and ingredients seem to be a real shame. Seems like an attempt to cut costs in ingredients, and I went there *because* it used to be quality.…
Overpriced, disgusting wanna-be mexican food.
Went here for a bachelorette party, food is WAY over-priced and NOT good. I got served cold coffee. I ordered fajitas and the peppers & onions tasted like they had not been cooked at all! The
steak, which was supposed to be medium-rare, was black on the outside, dry and completely brown all the way through. I asked for some sour cream and there was a $1.00 fee for that! The fajitas are disgusting!! You would be better off going to a real mexican restaurant and getting good mexican food for half the price!
We had brought a cake with us and they brought it out and we asked for a knife to cut it, the waitress said she would cut it and bring it out and they charged everybody in the party a $1.00 cake fee because they cut the cake for us, which we weren't told about and we asked for a knife to cut it ourselves! COMPLETE RIPOFF!!!!
I WILL NEVER GO BACK!!!!!…
Decent food , expensive drinks.
Went to Jibarra (now moved to the Warehouse district of Raleigh) last night with some friends
Nice welcome from the server who turned out to be a little less attentive than we are used to ( had empty glasses for a while)
Food was nice and well presented but unexceptional quality. I had a makers mark manhattan infused with ginger which had a nice flavor but was a light pour by my standards and the other 2 people that had the same drink , for $8 a pop I want to taste the liquor
Nice location and would go back again for dinner but not sure its worth $100 for 2…
