    Stop by for a late lunch with the family and was really impressed with how clean everything was right of the bat. The service was wonderful, everyone was attentive and friendly. The salsa was great and the chips were fresh. They have two types of queso which all us Texans can appreciate I got the mole enchiladas and my husband has the grande burrito. The mole was pretty good, I personally enjoy a little more heat in mine however I really did enjoy it. My husband liked his burrito a lot and the charro beans. All and all a great experience. We'll be back!

    We saw all the great reviews and we were in the neighborhood. everything we tried was very good. My wife enjoyed and shared some ground beef enchiladas. Both of us ordered off their extensive lunch menu. I went with the succulent and tender beef fajita plate, it came with tortillas, rice and beans, both of us went with refried beans 'cause our grandbaby loves them.....just like me. My plate came with guacamole, pico de gallo and lots of grilled bell peppers and onions. Prices were very reasonable and the service was exemplary. When we're in the area we'll definitely be back for more of these goodies.

    Hubby pointed out this restaurant as we were driving by it yesterday, so I looked it up here on Yelp and the pictures of enchiladas looked so good I couldn't wait long to try. It definitely did not disappoint!! The gravy had so much flavor, meat is tender. Serving is huge, which means I get to eat it again, yum! Also their pozole has very good flavor and tender meat as well. The menu is big, so much to chose from. Can't wait to come back and try more, might have found our go to spot for Mexican super cute place & was informed their is live music on the weekend!

    Chili Relleno this time. Service and food still excellent...one of the best Chili Relleno I've ever had!

Our server, Freddy, got the order in perfectly, even though there were 7 of us. The prices were reasonable. The food again was spot on. We WILL return! BTW, the watermelon margarita was wonderful!

TLDR: Thar food, those ritas. This place has become my most recent go-to when that little voice says - "pssst....Dave....Dave....i know you hear me....you want fajitas." Admittedly, I hear that voice a lot. In any case, I usually order the fajitas. They give you a decent quantity that tastes great. The meet is tender and flavorful and those tortillas had me at hello. I love this stuff! My son elects to go for the cheese enchiladas. I don't have to ask him how much he likes them because is a super picky eater and this is the one place where he actually cleans his plate. The margaritas are solid as well and when you glance around the restaurant, you'll see them on most tables. This place is a well oiled machine. There are plenty of staff and they all work unison to bring drinks / chips / salsa / refills / orders / food -- and that food usually comes out before I can feel guilty for eating chips, salsa, and queso. I found this trick that works for me. Since I 100% of the time feel guilty for leaving the place feeling so full, I started parking on the other end of the parking lot. This allows my to burn off 2.7 calories of the food that just ate so I feel 2.7 percent less guilty. On a serious note - this place is the real deal. While some of my previous favorites have either closed down or gone downhill a bit - Julio's has remained strong. ¡Salud!

This was my third time coming here, but the best…read moreexperience I've had, and the others were already extremely good, but I'll describe this trip. We entered to a friendly staff who sat us immediately. The vibe is very modern with some Mexican influence. We were with another couple and I think they were under the impression that this would be Tex-Mex, but it is not. For drinks I got a Mezcalina, my wife got a normal margarita normally I don't love Mezcal, but was feeling adventurous and this drink did not disappoint, it exploded with flavor and was my favorite drink I have had here. The bar program might be the best of any restaurant in the area, as it should be since they have a speakeasy as well. In my previous trip they brought us complimentary chips and salsa, but the time they brought Mexican hummus and pita. I was initially disappointed, but this was one of the more unique complimentary dishes I have had, and loved it. For starters, we got the TOSTADA CHUTORO, which was a tostada with raw fish and caviar. There were two, and although smaller bites to share, the flavor once again really shined through. I would say this is similar to a ceviche dish with really fresh fish and bright flavors.

The area it's in is very nice, with a park and plenty of parking. Walking distance to an HEB as well for last minute grocery stops. The food was ok. We ordered the costillas adobadas + the filet mignon + the enchiladas. Note that the enchiladas are actually empanadas and the menu has a typo. The food was ok. The costillas adobadas (baby back ribs) were yummy and the meat was super flavorful. However - I thought the taste was a bit too deep (intense/ rich). The filet mignon was ok, seasoned well and a bit dry. The empanadas were good too & had good flavor. Nothing really blew me away, & it was a bit pricey. The chips and salsa were really great. The ambiance is amazing though. The interior of the restaurant is beautiful and really nice. They have a cool speakeasy as well (which has awesome vibes). Service was normal; standard. Our waiter was good & the food came out pretty quick. Food: 3.5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Service 4/5

I gave it a try by getting a mixed plate with different items so I could try a little bit of everything. My dad got the same thing but a this different mixed plate and we agreed to share and taste each others food. The cheese enchiladas were good. They're made with chili gravy. The chicken flauta was good. I wasn't a fan of the beans and rice nor the Chile Relleno. The cheese is just shredded mozzarella basically not the actual cheesy find in a Chile Relleno. The stuffed avocado was too fried for me and way too much cheese. The restaurant was beautifully decorated for Christmas and the restrooms are super clean, which is always a plus for any restaurant. Unfortunately, we had some issues with our server, lots of miscommunication and a huge language barrier. In the end, I'm starting to wonder if he was just new because he didn't even know how to operate his own payment system. Unfortunately, I won't be returning, but I know a lot of people like this food and restaurant based on other ratings so I say try it for yourself.

We decided to check for open seats at the bar and that was full too. However, there are a few small "open" seating near the bar first come first serve for full service. Fortunately, we only waited about 15 minutes and were able to grab a table. The downside is the table is pretty small so by the time you have drinks and your food there is very minimal space. Be prepared to be overcrowded with people standing by the bar. Overall, service was good considering how busy it was. Shelby was our server and she was attentive and apologetic about the food taking awhile, which was understandable since they were busy. The food was just mediocre. I've been to different locations and this one was just okay. I was surprised that the micheladas weren't ridiculously expensive compared to El Tiempo or Ninfa's. I ordered the Shrimp Tacos and they were okay nothing to brag about. My husband ordered the chipotle Chicken Fajita Tacos and they were okay nothing great about them. We also ordered the Beef Fajita Nachos and they were horrible. The cheese and chips were dry and soggy, the beef dry and overcooked. The presentation wasn't appealing either. The ceviche was good, but tasted slightly fishy. We only came here because there wasn't an El Tiempo or Ninfa's around here.
