    Street tacos
    Jennifer D.

    The service was very prompt. The street tacos were perfection. Best beef fajita meat at a Mexican food restaurant I've had. Chips were great and salsa was not too hot!

    Great service once again. You can't go wrong at this establishment. It's fun and exciting and the food is always served sizzling hot! Special thanks to our server Eddie for going above and beyond to make sure my family and I were comfortable, happy, and satisfied! He was down-to-earth, funny, and very professional. The place was surprisingly not crowded when we arrived on a Saturday evening around 5:00 pm. We were a party of six, there was no wait time, and we were seated right away. The hostess was friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere was calm and chill which is uncommon for this restaurant. Maybe the weather scared a lot of people from being out and about because it was pretty dead inside. However, towards the end of our visit, loads of other guests began to slowly fill up the place. Overall, my family and I enjoyed our visit to the fullest. The food is good and enjoyable. It's not overly amazing or anything, but it's definitely good enough to enjoy. The customer service is always on point, the servers are always friendly and welcoming but Eddie is the best server by far. From my experience with him, it's easy to see that he knows what he's doing. He never missed a beat making sure we had everything we needed, making light conversations with us, checking on us periodically, and even offering to take a few group photos of our group. I highly recommend this establishment for anyone who enjoys delicious Mexican food and Margaritas. There's plenty of parking but can get overcrowded at times. The dining area has two parts with one being the main dining area near the entrance and the other part is on the other side of the main dining area separated by a wall. This area is sometimes reserved for private parties which can make the seat availability limited. However, there's also outside dining which is nice for good weather days.

    I was originally driving to the area for BBQ but when I arrived the place was closed. Oh well I went to Yelp to see what is close by and found Julio's. I remember I dined there years ago but really couldn't remember much about the food but since BBQ was off the table I thought dome Tex Mex sounded good. It was a very beautiful fall day so I opted to sit on the huge covered patio as did most everyone else dinning there that day. My server was friendly and attentive. They brought two salsas out, a green salsa and what seemed to be a roasted red salsa. The green was very good but the red had a strange flavor that I just couldn't figure out. I stuck with the green. I ordered the Chili Relleno with ground beef from the lunch menu, it came with guacamole, a queso puff and rice and beans...$13.99. It was all very good and I would definitely order it again. I do look forward to returning to try the fajitas. If your up in that are pay them a visit.

    The food was so good and authentic. Service was great. Food came out from the kitchen quick and everything was piping hot. Our server was very attentive. We sat outside on the patio and we loved it. They even have a little play area for the kids. So that's always a plus. Our kids loved the food.

    The food was amazing and the service was excellent and quick! Drinks were refilled without asking. The red salsa was served warm and had a fantastic flavor. The green salsa was also very delicious with just enough spice. Highly recommend! Great lunch and not too crowded or too pricey. Large portions with plenty left over to take home. We will definitely be back!!

Margaritas were large, but using Grand Marnier (instead of Cointreau) made them a little sweet for my taste. My chicken was grilled but a little overcooked. Still, it was pretty good tasting. Hubby's Tacos al Carbon was delicious. Great marinade! Tip: If you like mole, but don't want enchiladas, just ask them to sub Mole for the sauce on any of the chicken plates.

I'd come back and try out their fajitas next time!

The hospitality is casual, while also warm, and accommodating. When they first opened, you could walk in and get a table almost anytime.

The enmoladas are a standout, the salsas are fantastic, and the alambre is my personal guilty pleasure. I also love that mezcal is offered alongside the tequila selections in their cocktails.

However, today, instead of leaning into a familiar go to, and after passing by driving on the parkway without giving them a second glance, I decided to double back and grab a takeout order from Mandi Cocina Mexicana. In a sea of Tex Mex, Mexican Food sounded like a refreshing alternative. And although the shopping strip was unassuming, the interior floors were concrete and the booths dated, the energy around dinner time, antique decor, Mexican tile work and smiles of the servers had my mouth watering in anticipation of trying the food. The food itself was fine. I can't say that the cuisine stood out any more than other competitors, but then again we only tried a few dishes. Specifically, my husband found the quesadillas to be standards, and I found the fajita meat to be juicy, but the meat, onions and peppers lacking the sear and char you'd expect from the dish. Nevertheless, due to the customer service I'll be back to try their additional dishes.

Margaritas were not great and had little flavor but still pricey. I had a hibiscus flavored one. It had a shot of red juice/liquid poured into the center of the frozen margarita. It didn't taste like anything. not sweet or sour? very bland for a place that has Margaritas in its name! We ordered fajitas for two. Fajitas consisted of a piece of fajita meet over a plate of onions. No bell peppers to be found. Taste was bland, no seasoning detected. Salsa was very mild, watery with lots of onions. No real taste. Side rice and beans were okay, but nothing special. Smal scoop of guacamole was added. Flour tortillas were good. Meat was tender but very chewy. Had very little flavor and a small serving for two. Basically, it was hardly enough to make 2 tacos each. Meat and onions only. Cost was $48.00? Check your bill before paying, ours rang up at a higher price on the bill. They corrected it after we asked about it. But we had to show them the menu to prove our point. Overall, this place has potential. After so many good reviews maybe cost have been cut? They need to do better. Plenty of great restaurants in the area. Someone would have to insist on going here before we try this place again. Overall, it was $90.00 meal for 2 on a Saturday evening (5PM) Good Luck, hope this helps.
