According to a recently filed permit application, local chain El Jalisco is opening a new location in Seguin.
Coming to 1832 IH 10 W, taking over a former Ford dealer shop, the eatery will land near establishments such as Bill Miller BBQ, Jack in the Box, and McDonald’s.
The filing details that the remodeling of the 3,800-square-foot space began on February 27 and is scheduled to be completed before the end of May. For $100,000, the project is being carried out by Universal City-based firm 7th Modern Design Studio LLC.
For readers who are unfamiliar with the business, the website offers a brief introduction: “Our story started off in June 1999 when we opened My Little Mexican Cafe at the intersection of Roland Avenue and Clark Avenue, Southeast San Antonio, where we stayed for nearly 3 years.”
“In August 2001, El Jalisco Mexican Restaurant #1 was started by Salvador, Rafael, and Mario. The Alvarez brothers who have been featured in several magazines, have had many years of experience cooking authentic Mexican and Tex-Mex food.”
“The Alvarez brothers continued their legacy when in May 2008, they opened El Jalisco # 2 in Schertz, minutes from Randolph Air Force Base, [and] the Alvarez Brothers for the first time ever added a 3rd location and this time a location that serves alcohol in Spring Branch in March 2018, with Mario Alvarez leading and expanding this location.”
What Now San Antonio spoke briefly with the concept’s co-owner, Alberto Alvarez, who shared that El Jalisco is slated to open in April.
