Don Julio's was really good. It would be successful in Dallas. Small, comfortable and unassuming but the food and service were great. Chicken and steak fajitas were very good!

Food was very tasty. The carne guisada had good flavor. The red enchilada sauce was tasty as well…read more My wife said the charro beans were pretty good as well as the barbacoa torta. The flour tortillas were not awesome. Salsa was not the chunky kind and the chips were out of a bag. Our server was nice, seemed to know what she was doing. Not like a corporate chain restaurant. This restaurant is not fancy or completely clean as it could have been. For a roadside restaurant in a small town it has a very extensive menu which is 30% exciting and 70% scary because there are quite a few single use proteins and seafood for a place that does not look like it does huge volume on the weekdays. That being said, I would eat there again if the situation presented itself. It was tasty.

Over in the area for a country drive, did a quick Yelp check for a good Tex-Mex place for lunch…read more More than one review mentioned "locals like it", and we were sold. Plenty of parking, right off the main road, and more room inside than it appears. Waitress was on the job, excellent friendly service, was right there to take drink orders, and checked up on us throughout the meal. They were actually standing there waiting for us to sit with the chips and salsa. Definitely had the look of a local favorite, we were there after the lunch rush, I'm sure it's packed on weekend nights. All the food came out really fast, but was all fresh, tasty, and hit the spot. The menu had tons of variety, will take multiple visits to work through. That Texas staple, sweet tea, was especially good, had a lot of flavour served in large glasses. Would almost be worth stopping in during the summer just for some of the tea! Really nice space for a meal, and very friendly service!

Even though the restaurant was full, including one table of 20, our server was cheerful and speedy to deliver chips y salsa. Our plates were brought out quickly and hot.
