I have the chicken enchilada and a cheese enchilada with rice and beans wasn't a fan of the rice but that doesn't mean that everyone else doesn't like it or wouldn't like it I highly recommend this place. The atmosphere was very very good and the rest was fresh and vibrant. read more

Taco Joe's is not much to talk about. This place used to be pretty solid but unfortunately it's gone downhill. The place is not well maintained. Everything has a pound of dust/dirt on it. Like no one does a deep cleaning ever. Food is meh. I can get better food from Alberto's. read more

Food was excellent! Staff were super friendly and professional and the price was pretty good for the delicious food they served! Definitely deserves 5 stars read more

"My coworkers and I (four of us) went to Joe's Tacos for lunch and ordered the lunch special--a small burrito with rice and beans. We specifically asked what it came with, and the guy said it included rice, beans, and our choice of meat. But when the bill came, we were charged extra for the meat--something he never mentioned. He went to grab a menu to show us, and he realized it just said 'small burrito'--no details. He checked with another employee, and they confirmed it only included specific meats like shredded chicken, pork, or beef. He never apologized or took responsibility, and then just walked off. Another person had to come get our payment, even though our card was right there. Disappointing service, and I hope they improve next time." read more

If you're looking for a dining experience that feels just like being at your abuelita's house, you have to check out Taco Joe's! This hidden gem caught our attention when the restaurant we usually visit was unexpectedly closed. As we were about to leave, we spotted Taco Joe's and decided to give it a try, drawn in by their festive sign. Finding parking was a breeze in their spacious lot, even though there's only one entrance and exit. Once inside, we were warmly welcomed and promptly seated through a beautifully decorated brown door. The hospitality here is genuine--the waitstaff is always friendly and quick to assist. We started our meal with their house-made salsa and crunchy chips while our waitress took our drink order. If you're looking for a fantastic deal, their lunch specials come with a drink and are definitely worth it! I can't recommend the chile relleno special enough; it's served with creamy beans topped with cheese and flavorful rice that will absolutely delight your taste buds. We also enjoyed the hearty albondigas soup, which paired perfectly with rice and warm tortillas. Ever since that visit, we've been coming back every week! Taco Joe's stands out with generous portions and budget-friendly prices--definitely a breath of fresh air compared to many restaurants that skimp on servings. And let me tell you, when they bring your order to the table, it's piping hot and packed with flavor! Don't miss out on their delicious Mango Mimosas and a variety of other delightful drinks. Kudos to the owner, the talented chefs, and the fantastic waitstaff for making every visit a special occasion. Thank you for always making us feel right at home! We can't wait to come back next week! Lunch specials start at 11 AM. Drink and other specials are available at certain times. They open either at 8 AM or 9 AM and are closed on Wednesdays. read more

I've been sick so I ordered take out bad choice beans and rice cold rice had hard pieces and my favorite chile Riano was maybe dipped into the red sauce but that was it the mom and dad that owned this business would not let something like this go out read more

I have eaten here on several occasions, actually all have been takeout, but I have never posted a review. This particular occasion I was craving nachos, so I saw that they had nachos with everything I like on it (beans, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo). I didn't want any meat this time, but they do have another nachos on the menu that does include your choice of meat. The nachos were . Although I ordered this through 3rd party delivery services, it was still crunchy! The chips had not turned into mush like most places. I did request the wet toppings on the side, so that may have helped. Overall I give this a 4/5, not a full 5 because I had a lot of leftover chips without any toppings. read more

went to taco joes in Highland Fri, 7/18. placed our order. the waiter got one of our orders wrong so we asked him to replace it with the correct order. he replaced it but there were issues with it, something was wrong with the meat and and texture was off, so was unable to eat it. because of their system of paying, we were not shown a bill. we paid but after leaving and getting home, we notice there was a charge for the incorrect order as well as a charge for what should have been the correct plate (an extra $18.32 per plate). this is robbery when it was the waiter's mistake. read more

I love Taco Joes I know that restaurant could use a little touch up now but my whole family still picks it every time we want me I can good. My favorites are the Chile relleno srior meal, the shrimp cocktail and hubbies isth jasmine salad. Kids all have their favorites too.. read more

Honestly SAVE the $110 dollars your going to spend on your family to eat and take it to an actual restaurant, I did a pickup order and missed all the red flags from the start , first it's getting through the ohone line to even make the order then you show up on the 25 min it takes and have to wait 20 more minutes (45 total) just to get your food and be missing 2 entrees and have cold fries with a kids meal and a carne asada burrito full of beans. Just be sure to REPACK YOUR FOOD AND DRIVE BACK FOR A FULL REFUND. But thank you guys for a togo plate full of bread real good. read more

Great food with healthy portions. Excellent staff eager to serve you. Fresh onions & cheese were generously used in the enchiladas. Relaxing and welcoming; I will be back read more

I ordered the small menudo to go and a shredded beef hard shell taco. Both were quite yummy. My only complaint was the salsa ( not authentic at all) more like ketchup. read more

I order based on an instagram post I saw. It looked really appetizing, but it just looked appetizing. The chilaquiles divorciaos should had come with what it looks beef fajita and avocado. Not the case the came plain and no meat or avocado. When I asked for the meat they brought me a tiny bowl of what it looks like chopped asada( did not taste good). Also the menudo had 3-4 pieces of menudo the rest was just pozole hominy. For sure not worth your time or money. For the price go somewhere else read more

OK, that's random. It's always something weird. I guess they're closed for the day or something because of the kitchen some little small note in the window. I always find myself going back to Cuca's in Highland. That's where I'm going currently if you haven't tried it please do great food as good as taco Joe's if not better and the prices are unbeatable. read more

Food was good and the portions are big. Been here 5/6 times and it was always good. I do enjoy they're lunch specials. The portions are smaller but more than enough for a good meal. Service was great, everyone had been friendly and helpful. The Restaurant gives you an old authentic ambiance and it's great. I will be back again. read more

Excellent chips and salsa and great price! Food and service was awesome. Pleasantly surprised and will come back again. Thank you for a wonderful experience read more

The foods always pretty fresh come out as it should, but the customer service has changed. I noticed a manager that used to be here. There is no longer with them. It definitely shows it's always been up and down with customer service ever since then definitely weigh out my options as far as coming back and I've noticed the food has changed dramatically like for example the burritos look like enchiladas they look like the portions are very noticeable now they better get it together here real fast like I said very very notable read more

Who's been craving a chili relleño? This girl!! Third restaurant and THEY HIT THE SPOT! Others were all battered, or nasty sauce, but Taco Joe's is the bomb! Oh! This is after I took it home and let it sit. Tossed in the air fryer and grabbed hard!! Lol! I wish I had a picture- sorry! read more

The food was very salty and extremely greasy. My sister and I both felt sick right after eating our cheese enchilada meal. The service was also very bad. They weren't even busy, but we felt like we got forgotten. We did not get our napkins or refills as requested. We won't be going back....ever. read more

As of February 15 2026 prices got raised insanely and portions got smaller ‍ they made many changes and there all bad . It sucks because I would come here all the time I live in highland but now the prices are outrageous would not recommend this dump read more

The food is always good, but the services can be hit or miss. Tonight was a BIG miss. It took forever for someone to take our order, then they got one meal wrong. The music was so loud we had trouble being able to carry on a conversation at our table. We will go back and give them another try, but it will have to be better service next time. read more

Certainly not what it used to be. Ordered steak ala Mexicana. Meat tasted old and on the verge of going out in a day or so. My husband's garlic shrimp was also marginal. It was plated beautifully but that didn't make up for quality issues. The lime margarita was syrupy sweet. Couldn't drink it. No bueno. We are middle aged and always went to this restaurant, and the original in Colton back in the 80s and 90s. Highland has never been as good as Colton, but now it is not a place for us any longer either. Sad when something that was so good just looses its quality over time. Still seems to get business from those that are fine with what it is or don't know what it once was. read more

Great food at a reasonable price. We caught them at lunchtime which was really busy but had great service and food was delicious!!! We will be coming back!!! read more

Had lunch today and the staff seem to be in total chaos. Waited forever for them to clear a table. Busboys would just walk by tables that needed to be cleaned off. Not sure if they were short of wait staff but busboys seem to do everything but take orders. One waiter before we were seated asked me if I was paying my bill after he had told me they would be right with me to seat us. Not the service I was use to in the past. Appears there was no manager today to keep things under control. Probably won't be going back anytime soon. Food was good. read more

We use to really love this place. Sadly it has not been the same for the last few time we have ate there. Not sure what's going on, we have been coming here for at least 15 years. We love supporting small family owned businesses like this, hopefully it's just some growing pains. read more

Place very clean. Bathrooms very clean. Staff very friendly. Plenty of parking. Got the breakfast burrito with beans, bacon, and Avocado. Very tasty. Salsa is delicious Thanks for a great first visit highly recommend this place read more

Food is good but a bit pricey. The service was decent and over all the place feels good. Likely will be back when craving a chimichanga.

I'd give it a 4.25 if I could. Tacos Joe's is a great top choice for a fantastic dining experience. The food and drink service consistently impress, especially with their delightful breakfast menu.

Delicious! The burritos are huge, probably at least 2 lbs! I was approached immediately when I arrived to be seated, but I asked if I could order to go. I ordered the food and the wait was not too long for fresh made burritos. The staff were friendly and kind making sure they double bagged my food. I had the combo burrito and my husband had the garbage burrito. As for the spiciness- it was perfect! I am tired of the salsa that tastes too sweet or like all tomato and no chile! Delicious. Definitely the new spot to visit! read more
