Great chips! The main criteria for Mexican! Everything is seasoned so well! A particular favorite is the chimichangas! Great tortillas and cheesy--Yum! Do yourself a favor and enjoy Jose Locos! read more

The food was delicious. The ambiance was very nice Mexico themed decor. The service was quick. The waiter was very nice and earned his 20% tip. However the steak was very poor quality. It was over cooked and very tough and sinewy. read more

I was very impressed by Jose Locos. We were a large group and the service was fast and everything came out accurate. Staff were kind and friendly. Impressed by my fajita salad. Very flavorful, and the taco shell was perfectly crispy. Did not skimp on the protein. Throughly enjoyed this restaurant! read more

I met a childhood friend here for lunch, she lives in the area and I was driving through in my way home from Branson. I love when locals tell you about a really good restaurant. We love Mexican food and this one did not disappoint! Chips and salsa were good, it's decorated so cute for Christmas, the staff was great and our meals were pretty delicious. I had the lunch fajitas, my friend had the chile relleno and my hubby had the 3 tacos. We all left happy and full! read more

Wonderful Food! Amazing Service! Great ambiance! Yes, Jose Locos checks all of the boxes!

Delicious! Steak tacos are always top notch. They also deliver our food quickly every time.

I would rather make the hour and a half drive out to La Familia in Alba near or Knogo and have the best Mexican food in my life than ever come back to this place and spend another 40 bucks on food that could barely feed me. I am under 200 pounds btw. read more

Great food! Thank you! Kind staff and great environment! I got the Cali burrito and it was very yummy

Though very busy and with a full parking lot they were able to seat a party of three with no wait. Queso and chips were yummy and the Original Taco Salads were delicious! Good Margaritas as well. The ambiance was alive and colorful. I think it's the new "go to" place in Springfield for Mexican food. read more

EXCELLENT! Taco Tuesday was awesome and it's a great atmosphere! Shredded Chicken and beef tacos were delicious! Side of rice and beans can be split between 2 people. Also loved that they gave everyone in our party their own salsa cup for dipping the chips. Service was great! read more

Excellent food and service. We had a large party of 11 and the waiter kept the refills coming amd provided quick service.

This used to be our favorite restaurant in Springfield before they moved locations. They have gone down hill and it's absolutely horrible. The staff is HORRIBLE, the food is not as good as it used to be. We quit going here. Everyone we know quit going there as well. We go to La Hacienda or El Puente instead. Don't waste your time or money here! You'll be very disappointed read more

Visited on a Friday night and was surprised by the live singing which was beautiful but got a little loud as the night went on. I had tacos a La cart and a watermelon marg. I didn't enjoy the marg it didn't taste like watermelon but the shrimp and the steak tacos were good. I didn't enjoy the chips and salsa but the queso was delicious and probably my fav thing here. The service was quick and our server was patient and friendly. read more

After a grueling 11 hours drive we found ourselves searching for dinner at 8:45pm on a Sunday night. Luckily Jose's was 4 minutes from the hotel and was accommodating to our to go order. The employee that took my order was patient, kind, and quick! I had the entire order and was back in my hotel room at 9pm. We ordered the horchata which was homemade. It was so creamy and had a nice vanilla flavor, we both would highly recommend trying it. Then we shared an order of chicken fajitas which were fantastic. We hate green peppers and they allowed us to substitute jalapeño for the green giving it a great spice. And the accoutrements were on point, their beans and rice were great and loved their salsa. The fajitas come with three corn tortillas, there is plenty so I would recommend getting a second portion (if Jose's allows, we did not ask) and split, you will both be well fed. If we lived around here we would go again but for us it was a great ending to our first day of travel! read more

The parking lot says it all- it was packed and for good reason. The food is amazing and the menu has a few original combinations. The ambience is what you'd expect of a nice Mexican restaurant. We'll definitely stop in again when we're in town. read more

We are in town from Kansas City and found this place. This is the BEST MEXICAN restaurant in Springfield! Killer drinks-Coco Loco, Long Island ice tea, Margarita, and GIANT Miller light were all great. But the food was outta this world. Chicken Fajitas and pick 2 entree were flavorful and really large portions. The restaurant was crowded, yet the service was fast and food delicious. Thank you Camilo for being a TERRIFIC server! Empty drinks and happy ladies with our cute server Camilo! read more

Okay, so being from South Texas, my standards for Mexican food are pretty high. I know that but I do take into account where I am when I'm trying non-local food. Unfortunately, I can't rate this place very highly. The Bloody Mary I got was not very good at all. Whatever Bloody Mary mix they used was not good. I basically had to just drink it to get it down because it's a party foul to waste liquor right? My friends drink was also not good. She got the mojito but it basically was a vodka with sprite. No mint to be seen. So, definitely skip the cocktails and just order something super simple like a vodka soda. Then there's the food. Not the worst but definitely not the best. I'm surprised by how busy the restaurant was based on my experience. Maybe there's not a lot of good alternative options in the area. Definitely looks and feels like an authentic Mexican restaurant and service was not bad but I can't recommend it. read more

Cool busy Mexican joint. The food was good, and the service was quick. The house got sauce was great too.

I have been to most of the Mexican restaurants in Springfield and this is the best. Restaurant is very clean and interior is well appointed. Food is exceptional. The carnitas are the best I have ever had. The white queso is amazing. Chicken and Ground beef options are well above average. Service has always been excellent. Highly recommended. read more

I've been here quite a few times. The best Mexican in town. They put Mexican Villa to shame. Which isn't too hard to do. The only problem is it doesn't have the same vibe as the building they were in next door to them. But at least the service and food is real good. read more

Outstanding service and beautiful decor cannot overcome subpar food. First the pluses: great salsa, chips and tortillas and the shrimp in the fajita. I asked the server which was the best and she recommended the seafood variation (Acapulco?). Sadly, l opted for the Texan, with beef and shrimp wo chicken. Hubby had the traditional beef. In all my years of eating TexMex in both California and Texas, I have never had worse beef in fajitas- cut to shoestring size and cooked well done, if not burnt, tough as leather shoestrings and swimming in greasy onions and soggy bell peppers. Yuck! Inedible. The server didn't notice that I left the plate untouched- except for the shrimp, which was perfectly prepared. Otherwise I would have been happy to have provided contemporaneous complements, and suggestions. There has to better and much more authentic Mexican food in Springfield. Otherwise, head on over to Texas! read more

Food was hot and fresh! Very friendly staff and was checking on us frequently! Highly recommended!

Service is amazing and the food is spectacular. I love this place. The owner is always smiling and has a joyful welcome and the margaritas are wonderful. read more

Food was less in portion than several prior visits. Ordered one dish of shrimp and scallops, received only two (2) scallops on the dish. Secondly, I seem to recall that, at the least, there used to be discounts for seniors and military veterans. I assume law enforcement, firefighters and first responders as well. No more discounts, so we won't be returning to this restaurant. read more

Great food, clean place, and excellent service. I had the enchiladas. My college daughter's favorite.

A little on the pricey side but always delicious and tons of food so it's worth it! The newer location is very nice and big, so we got right in at 5:00 on a Saturday evening. read more

We have been here 4 times now. I really like the food. It is fresh and delicious. Very big restaurant that can handle large seating. This last time though we had a server that did not write our order down. He got several things wrong and was too busy to connect with us. So much so He was unaware he never brought my husband's meal. We will be back because we enjoy the food but we hope to never have service like that again or we will have to find a New Mexican restaurant to enjoy. read more

While in Springfield we found this place down the street from hotel. Parking lot full, so looked it up on Yelp and rated good. Inside decorative and relaxing. Food good and Margaritas even better. Served with a flower floating on top! Ordered a side of cheese sauce. It happened to be white cheese, so grandson wouldn't eat. But salsa and everything else was good. read more

This was the second time eating at Jose Locos within the last two weeks with my lady. We enjoyed it so much the first time we came back again for date night. This restaurant checks all three boxes- Delicious food, fast & friendly service, and the decor/atmosphere is authentic. Oh, as a bonus, the prices are reasonable and the portion sizes are generous. Their chips, salsa & Queso are fantastic and fresh. I has their Al Pastor street taco and those were very tasty as well. I'm a big eater so I also ate the enchilada supreme-one chicken, one beef, one bean & one cheese enchilada with red sauce. All were packed with wonderful flavor and cooked to perfection. My lady had the loco ribeye with mushrooms and cheese sauce which she absolutely loved. We highly recommend this Mexican restaurant and will be coming back anytime we are craving Mexican cuisine. read more

Food- husband chimichanga, and liked it. I had lunch chicken fajitas. Meat was chopped up with peppers/onions. Side of rice/beans. I like my fajitas in strips. Sizzling hot. There was no cheese to put on it (I asked for some) waitress spoke Mexican so it was hard to communicate. Salsa was good but not super good. I won't go back. Service was ok. Language barrier but she was nice and fast. (As In bringing things we needed) haaa Clean, concrete floors, table was clean. Not crowded, after lunch hours. Prices were 10.00 and up. read more

The food was very good , spinach enchiladas, guacamole, service , and timely ! A personal dislike is the smell of the cleaner that is used in the bathrooms and then it was being used close to our table near the back of the restaurant. It's very strong and overwhelming. I hope that they will change this because it is very off putting when you're eating. This is the second time we are eaten here recently and the food is really very good and the wait staff is attentive and friendly. read more

I had the Guisado with red sauce tonight. Cooked to perfection with plenty of tender pork morsels in a tangy sauce. The food was served super fast, before our cheese crisp even came out. Our waitress didn't have any personality but the food is worth continuing to go back for. read more
