So good! Food was great, definitely delicious Mexican food! Rice and beans are so good, taquitos, tacos, burritos, chimichanga everything we have tried here is great! read more

Love Don Jose's! I eat here as often as I can when in town visiting my mother. Love the breakfasts!! But everything is top notch. Great salsa bar! read more

Wow the man at the register was so rude! I was simply asking about the sodium content for my father who has a heart condition and he went off on me and said the only sodium in their food comes from a salt shaker. He shouted back at me and said the food is authentic and you don't have to eat here! I was just trying to order the lowest sodium items for a heart conscious person and felt so humiliated at the response. I will never return and let others know how the customer service is the worst! read more

My girlfriend and I were looking for a place to have good Mexican food and we found it. The food was very good. The rice was probably the best I ever had and the tacos are a must. However, the only thing I didn't like was the margarita prices. They charge $6.75 for a very small plastic cup of margaritas that are premade. This was a deal breaker for us as we like to have a happy hour now and then and we usually have 2 margaritas ea. At these prices we will go someplace else but again if you go for just the food, you won't be disappointed. read more

My first time here and now I know I'll be back the food here is excellent clean tasting and delicious I had a chili relleno it was on point . The salsa is also very fresh and flavorful. Best in peoria in my opinion. read more

I went there because of the reviews and I have to say I am totally disappointed I asked the guy behind the counter what the special is or what he recommends and he said Mexican food he was no help in selecting my dinner. The chicken enchiladas the sauce tasted like chicken gravy the rice was like Uncle Bens box rice and the fajitas were as bland as his advice. read more

Excellent Mexican food. The shrimp and tostadas are the best!! Family run restaurant. Good food friendly people. This is our go to spot for authentic Mexican food. read more

I am a gringo so I usually have a problem with Mexican food. But Don Jose's is perfection. I usually have the Carne Asada and it is delicious every time. The fish tacos are huge! The wait is minimal and the staff is friendly. When I crave Mexican food I go to Don Jose's. Some day I might have the guts to order #20 read more

Don Jose's is a small restaurant but you feel welcomed the minute you hit the door. I had 3 rolled tacos with rice and beans. My thoughts was the food was good but very bland. So first time Mexican food diners would love it, and probably because the location is in Sun City the bland is in demand. The next time I will order something more authentic. read more

One of the best Mexican meals I've had in the Valley. Really flavorful rice and beans and enchiladas. Looking forward to trying other items on the menu. read more

This might be my new favorite Mexican restaurant. Are you still always go to Caramba is but try Don Joses after reading the reviews. Nothing like supporting small businesses! The food was fresh and warm and tasted spectacular. read more

Jose is a great guy and he and his wife serve up some delicious homemade authentic Mexican. You won't be sorry you ate here!

Delicioso! Fast and friendly service at a family restaurant. Fresh. Most of the food is cooked from scratch when you order. Standard decor, but the food is tasty, and excellent. Nicely spicy, but if you want flame-thrower hot, Don Jose's is probably not for you. Try one of the combination plates. Don Jose's is the real deal, and it will probably become among your favorites, as it is mine. Buen provecho! read more

Really great food for an even greater price! Food came out quick and was delicious!! Cute restaurant that's as authentic as it gets :) manager was super friendly as well! He had a ghost chili/Trinidad scorpion pepper extract that was a sort of challenge, and one toothpick tip dipped in it had me in intense pain but I won a bet with my friends! Was pretty neat and do the challenge at your own discretion :) definitely gonna come back again! Would recommend! read more

Restaurant would be a bit of a stretch to say if this place - more like great fast food!!! Service was great and the food was fresh and tasty. Prices are great for a quick meal and it is a quiet place to enjoy the homemade meal. read more

This place is amazing! Truly a diamond in the rough. If you are in the lower Surprise/Sun City area and have a hankering for great Mexican food, you NEED to stop by. Try the shrimp and steak burrito (I think it's called Tierra y Mar). You will not regret coming here. The rice and beans are some of the best I've ever had as well and the owner is SO pleasant. read more

Five stars for the delicious food. Less for the interior but we don't really care about that when we are enjoying our food so much. Their flour tortillas are the best ever (and I've made my own tho not as tasty as these), We had tacos, tostadas, beans, and enchiladas and all were very good. Don Jose's is one of the best values with great flavors. Kudos to the chef! read more

This Mexican food restaurant is a gem! My cousin that lives near us recommended it to us years ago, why we did try it until recently is beyond me because we were missing out! The food is cooked to order. My husband loves having their breakfast burrito for dinner. I enjoy the quaint dinning area and how the owner remembers not only our order, but who we are and some little facts about us. We will be customers for life! read more

This place has amazing Mexican food! Jose is very nice and always smiling and ready to help you! If your looking for excellent food, service, and a all around good place to eat this is the place you want!!! Family owned and operated. Tell them Chris from Peoria Kia sent you! You won't regret it!! read more

Only been once. Got a Carnitas Burrito. It was quite good, but also quite expensive for the size. For the size, it realistically should have cost half of the $6 they charge, maybe $4. Good food of what I tasted, just need bigger portions or a price reduction. read more

Awesome authentic Mexican. Jose is a true gentleman, the food is the best!

Good authentic Mexican food at a reasonable price. The fire department loves it that's always a good sign!

Delicious Mexican food! Always get their chile relleno, however, the spice level varies from day to day as does their salsa spice level. Not a place I'd eat in at, but definitely get it to go. Portion does me two meals. read more

Been to Don José 10 times. Super good food. Love their beans, chimichanga and chips. On orders to go call and food is ready in 7 minutes. Great prices. Not a fancy place so I'd order to go if you can. read more

After reading reviews I thought I'd give this place a try as it is close to home. Got there late (they were closing early) so quickly chose 2 taco's and a beef chimichanga to go. Ate 1 taco and threw the other away. The chimi. was excellent as were the rice and beans. I will go back to try a few other things, but not another taco! read more

Delicious, authentic, friendly. Love this place. Will definitely be back. Had the steak rancheros. Flavorful. Love the pickled carrots and peppers at the salsa bar. read more

If you find yourself near Sun City and craving some solid Mexican food this the place. Great customer service and reasonable prices.

They have really great carne asada tacos! Jose is always so pleasant to deal with and they fast and priced right!

Love the cheese enchiladas the sauce is homemade. Good place to eat for a quick bite. Family owned the owner Jose is funny always cracking jokes.. read more

I eat a lot, I mean A LOT, of Mexican food. Don Jose's would be my only choice if I lived/worked closer. So amazing! The green salsa is the best ever! read more

Very nice ownership. But the food, was not good. Not good at all. It was pretty bad. $17 for lunch and it was poor quality. The salsa bar was dirty. The staff was sitting and watching a very loud tv, (too loud), not cleaning, nor making the restaurant or customers, feel welcome. I felt like they were very lazy, and disinterested. I couldn't believe how dirty, unclean and unfresh the salsa bar was. read more

Very Americanized Filibertos level Mexican food. Everything is absolutely drowning in cheese to hide the rather bland flavors. Prices were average for cheap Mexican food. The salsa was terrible: tasted like tomato sauce poured directly from the can and mixed with way too much oregano, absolutely bizarre. Service was friendly and fast. read more

The food is very good. The only thing I don't like about this place is every time I order (I order the same thing every time) the price is always different...I don't think I've paid the same price more than once! The food is great though which is why I keep coming back but definitely peeved when he gives me the total read more

We tried Don Jose's for the first time this week...not a fancy place which pleased us and the food was great...and a lot of it. The fresh salsa is made all day long and it is great! It's set up like a fast food place, no table service, styro plates, but the prices are great and the food even better. The service is tops... read more

Very disappointed. Two carne asada tacos with Pico and guac. Sounded good but meat was cold and flavorless. Pico and guac were flavorless. read more

Love this place!! I love to support small game places. Very friendly owners and make you feel so welcome. Fast food service and always delicious!!! The breakfast burritos are excellent and my fiance loves the chorizo burrito.....Highly recommend and will definitely be back!! read more

I used to be a regular customer here. Recently, I stopped in for lunch. The only employee present was the cook. She was chatting with a friend at the counter. She ignored me for five minutes before taking my order. Since she made me feel like a nuisance, I will be taking my business where it will be appreciated. Que lastima...adios. read more

Love this place - authentic from the menu to the service. What I love the most is when the snowbirds ask for food like the big box mexican restaurants. You know, the Chi Chi's of the world.... well Jose is hysterical when he starts instructing them about authentic mexican cuisine. Total Crack Up! I've seen some of them storm off, complain about their food, and otherwise not appreciate the authentic approach of Jose. Now that's entertainment! read more

One of our favorites! A little place with great food. The owner is always welcoming and always remembers our order each time we visit. We love supporting this local business. Don't leave without plenty of their homemade salsa! read more

Took off a star for using styrofoam and plastic. Authentic Mexican soda and food. Salsa bar is free, up charge for chips. This is a good, inexpensive place to stop if you happen to be in the area. read more
