    Best authentic Mexican food in The Keys!!!! Hands down! From the moment you walk in, you can tell the restaurant is family oriented. From the pictures on the wall, to the family working right there in front of you in the kitchen, you can taste the real flavors of Mexican cuisine that I have never been able to come close to in The Keys before this. The sauces taste so good and have the right amount of heat. Now I can finally go to a spot that has all the options of Jarritos to choose from! Also, get a Mexican Coke. I cannot wait to go through this whole menu and I recommend the same to anyone that is in The Keys!

    Chicken empanadas

    GO HERE!!! Julies Kitchen has some real authentic Mexican food! Absolutely delicious! The food really was made with love. I enjoyed the birria tacos & my boyfriend loved the chicken empanadas. Really worth your buck. Also, you can't go wrong with fresh juices & bottled coke or sprite

    Chicken Quesadilla excellent on her corn shell

    We were visiting the keys when we stopped in to Julie's Kitchen. Being from Michigan we are used to having great authentic Mexican food . It looked like Julie's was one of the only places in the area that had a menu that carried true mexican dishes. The restaurant is a cute and very clean carry out only place. The customer service was very friendly and helpful with menu choices. It has an open concept so you can see them cooking in the back and also see how clean it is. My husband and I got quesadillas , Godita, Sope , elote and a side of rice. The Food was PHENOMENAL! I was excepting it to be very good based on reviews and what we saw however we were both blown away at the flavor and presentation. This was the best Mexican food we have had and that includes our places in Michigan. Please support this local business as they truly take pride in the product they put out. I know any time we find ourselves in the keys we will be sure to stop at Julie's for a great dinner.

    Nasty awful chips and salsa. Chips tasted like they were fried in rancid oil. Pricing was over $25. One place I will not go back to.

    Easily the best Mexican food in the lower keys. We eat there at least two or three times a month.

    I can never find a good Mexican place in florida. But I was so happy to have stumbled upon this…read moreone! It's a small Mexican shop. Ac inside with some seating on the windows and side wall then outdoor seating. Was happy to see a lot of locals who were working come by for lunch. Which is a good sign! Had the burrito with my fav-onion cilantro rice. But it comes with lettuce tomato if you want. It was a decent size. I had the carnitas. It was slow roasted pork-not deep fried. But it was really good. My partner had the fish tacos. We were going off the pictures from Yelp but they didn't come deep fried. Not sure if we had to ask for that. It was good regardless. Both the fish and carnitas had the same seasoning. Had the chips and salsa. The salsa taste like fresh tomato and garlic. Very garlicky. It was good but you've been warned if you don't like garlic. Chips are obviously fried in store. The salsa verde was mild and taste also fresh. The salsa rojo was different than what came with chips. It was mild as well. We also had their Jamaica and it was so fresh and perfectly made!!!!!! We would have eaten here twice if we had time. It's a great place to stop by if you need something quick. It's different from Whats offered in the keys. But it's very good! Would definitely go back!

    Ordered some tacos from here and they were loaded up which I very much appreciated. I ordered…read moretakeout and got the ground beef American style tacos and the chicken American style tacos. I enjoyed the ground beef tacos more. The flavors were exactly what I was craving. The meat was seasoned well. The chicken tacos I did not like. Although they had the same contents, I didn't like the way the chicken was seasoned. Not sure why, my bf enjoyed the chicken ones more so it might just be a personal difference of preference. Overall, would come back and try more items off the menu! Happy this spot is open nearby!

    Loved it! It's probably the only Mexican restaurant in key west you can get molé sauce!!…read more We got a sopé for appetizer which was small but delicious. My entree was chicken enchiladas with mole sauce , loved it! The refried beans were a little bland, but otherwise the food was great. Also the prices are great! BYOB , I didn't realize this and which I brought a bottle of wine or some mixed margaritas. I'll be back and will remember this for next time! Very cute decorations inside, there's tables or booths. Service was great. Can't wait to come back!

    Excellent. The opening salsa was fresh and tasty. Not overly spicy but bursting with flavor…read more The chicken mole was the the thing of the day - everyone seemed to be ordering it, so I went with the flow. The flavor was excellent and the chicken very, very tender. I also ordered the Chile Releno because that's what I do. I went with only cheese. They do have a steak and cheese option. It was extra large and packed. The egg batter was thick. Lots of city workers and locals chilling out. All were very happy. The music plays and laughter filled the air. The staff is excellent, a little erratic on speaking English or not. The server was very attentive. I stumbled into El Molcajete on the walk back from fishing all morning. I was unable to finish it all and will have leftovers later. I'm glad I dropped on and will be back.
