Walked into the sounds of tejano music, so cool! Two seating areas, we chose the bar side, with the festively decorated bar. Mini piñatas and greenery put us into a great mood, lifted our road weary spirits. Ordered two Coronas with lime, we just wanted something light and familiar. Chips and salsa on the house came out with our brews. Simple salsa, but hit the spot. Thick chips, my fav kind. Menus extensive but not Cheesecake Factory crazy. Ordered tacos, since that appears to be a specialty. Steak milanesa, chile relleno, and mashed potato tacos were too interesting not to try. Also ordered the queso, a warm creamy white dip that went nicely with the salsa. Faint bite, so if you like things hot, add one of the hot sauces, which are placed on every table. Super friendly staff all around, always a bonus. Also, place was very clean, all tables neat and wiped down, very nice. Looked around while waiting for our tacos and noticed some great murals on the walls. Also noticed the huge tequila collection behind the bar. Ordered our food in to go containers since we planned to take most back to our hotel. But we had to sample hot first! So all the tacos were good. Beans and rice were simple and authentic, excellent! The mashed potato came in a crispy fried shell, light and delicious. The milanesa was also yummy. But the star was the chile relleno taco! Nice bite and so good! Fun experience at Joe's. Hope we can make it back sometime. Muy delicioso!

I also tried the regular pork taco, personally I would go with the carnitas style.. not to say it was funky tasting or tough .. however the carnitas has that extra flavor.

All & all no complaints & I look forward to trying the skirt steak burrito next time around.

I felt that the food lacked seasoning. Atmosphere was OK. But service was slow, also a weird experience (did not have just one dedicated waiter taking care of me), they kept switching back-and-forth between two or three waiters. And when would ask for something they would say be right back and then would never return with what I asked for. Had to make the request to someone else and then that person would bring the item. It was just a weird experience. I will probably go back and give them another try, it may have just been an "off day" for them. IDK ‍

The open airy seating space, beautifully decorated for the holiday, was inviting and quiet. Perfect for conversation. The staff were very friendly and attentive. (Shoutout to Sherry!)

The kitchen was severely backed up and we were given no warning when we got there for our 6:30 reservation. We were immediately seated and ordered and didn't get our entrees until after 8p. Once received, it was all severely overcooked, even the salmon ordered for the dog (which he normally loves and refused to eat). However, the appetizer we ordered was pretty decent (bread and meatballs). Hopefully this was just an off night for them but it really pushed back our night and travel plans as we were only traveling through.
