    Great Mexican food and atmosphere! I started coming here during my move to Texas back in 2008. I first has the Stuffed Avocado which is stuffed with fajitas meat and cheese and then deep fried...yum! It does take long to prepare to be ready to wait a bit. Don't worry, while you wait there will be hot tortilla chips with free salsa (green or red). And don't even think about your drink, it will be refilled again and again before you know it. Prompt wait staff and kitchen make this place one of the best local Mexican Restaurants in this part of Texas. My family's favorite items to order: Burrito Verde Kids quesadilla Fajitas any stlye Stuffed Avocado 3 Tacos meal

    Found in received beans

    We love El Bosque and have loved it for a long time. But today one of us found a pushpin in the beans. I called, and they apologized and refunded that one meal. I know things happen, but this is a pretty big thing. Thankfully no one was hurt.

    Pina colada! Yum!

    Wonderful service! Staff is very attentive. Great food that is ready fast! Salsa served warm, which I love! And great mixed drinks!

    Dinner for four. The Fajitas Pablanas (at bottom (chicken) & also on the left steak)) are delicious!

    Excellent lunch menu, lots of options. The queso is not my favorite because it's just warm cheese but the salsa is pretty tasty.

    The is a great Tex-Mex restaurant!…read more First of all, they serve Puffy tacos, in the San Antonio style. Few restaurants can prepare these the proper way. There is great QC, AND management, here. Julio's wife, Elena, stopped by the table and checked in the food. She also told us of a wrestling event that was coming up on May 1. She was SO pleasant. 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! I'm

    In Texas - the Tex-Mex competition is fierce. Everyone has a favorite. This place just bumped my…read moreprevious favorite from its perch and became current favorite. 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!

    I came with others to this restaurant. It had good reviews, but when I look at the food, it didn't…read morelook like the normal mexican food that I'm used to. 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.

    My family and I enjoyed our visit here today. We were lucky it wasn't busy day today…read more The place is pretty nice and the staff were very attentive. The food choices were amazing and the price is good. Ambiance is great! We ordered two plates of chimichanga and they were delicious. I had the chonguito in beef fajita and it was good. The guacamole was tasty, sadly they gave you little rice to enjoy your plate. I recommend this place if you are looking for a good Mexican food.
