    Lengua and chicharron tacos
    Mikka H.

    Went here a few weeks back and we enjoyed it. There was quite a few locals so must be good food right. The food was good I got menudo, lengua taco, chicharron taco. He had Al pastor and barbacoa. They were all good, I even asked for extra jalepenos on the side and a grilled jalepeno with Avocado near the end. Staff is attentive in the beginning, but after you get your food be prepared to wait for the check. 4 stars cause they only have 1 selection of salsa. It's Mexican it should have the staple avocado salsa and a red salsa. We will be back to try more!

    Spicy sauce with fajita beef. Specialities

    Okay so! Called the restaurant since discovered on Yelp, and host was super nice. Very helpful and great service. Although service was amazing, the food was not at all what I was expecting. Very bland. Description said the sauce was spicy on the fajita. This sauce was actually not spicy at all and actually was pretty oily. I was highly disappointed in the food. Only give you 3 tortillas for fajitas and rice was bland. Sad to say, I will not be spending my money here ever again, but the service doesn't go unnoticed! Plus the owner claims to not be partnered with Yelp but on here, you can redeem a coupon for 15% off a $25 order. Host had to call and verify with boss/owner if she could honor it. They did as a courtesy but it is super misleading to know the only reason why I gave them a try was because of Yelp. Try at your own risk.

    Delicious food chips and salsa to start. I ordered pork in green salsa w/beans-rice and I added a Chile relleno on the side. This has a fantastic taste. The flour tortilla is delicious. The waitress so friendly and she attended us very very super well. If you are in that area and hungry I Recommend this restaurant to calm you hungry.

    We were gonna order from a food truck and although their business said they opened at 4 they weren't ready at 4:20 to even take the order. Decided to come here instead. We were served by who I think is the owner. My husband wanted tripa tacos which they did not have. The server (owner) took pride in what tacos he did have. His enthusiasm made our day. Although he runs a restaurant he pointed us to the food places that did sale tripa tacos. We decided to stay and eat here. The food was amazing. I wish I could give him and this restaurant more stars..

    Wow !!! This is a small gem !!! The staff was super friendly and attentive. Their prices are reasonable and they have a great selection on their menu. The dining area was clean and the service was spot on. My coworker and I both ordered soup and it was very good. He had the chicken soup and I had the seafood soup. When we were seated they brought out chips n salsa (very good), and they gave each of us a side plate with two chips, refried beans and queso on top which was very good. We will be back for sure as there is so much on the menu to try. They do have a full bar and I saw a sign that they have a margarita happy hour ($1.99) on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Finally, they serve menudo daily so I'll definitely be back as I love menudo. Worthy of a bookmark and a try if you're passing through or if you happen to live or work near-by.

    updated 2 years later and this still stands true. Augustine is the best server I've ever had. Super attentive and very personable. I have yet to have a bad experience coming here. On to the food: I was coming here every friday for dinner with my in-laws for a period of about 2 years when I lived local and have tried pretty much everything on the menu. Some things may not be what I prefer, but I have yet to get something that wasn't good. My personal favorites are the camarones Guanajuato and the queso flameado. Now that I live in Omaha, I make sure to come here at least 2x every time I am in town. La cabana and tequila patio have nothing on this wonderfully friendly hole in the wall.

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!

All of our items were fresh and delicious! I was enchanted by the atmosphere and presence of the owner and her family. We have already been back for a different special on this week's menu! We especially love the creamy poblano corn empanadas. We fought over one last time, but this time we each got our own. The waitstaff we have had both times is very sweet, but does not speak or understand English very well and was unable to really help us decide this second time, so we just took her recommendation. One of the items she recommended, the Huarachon, was not my favorite, but the other items were very good. We would have especially enjoyed some interaction with the chef-owner or the gentleman who seems to be her husband, since it did not seem very busy at the time, but they simply said "hello". Hopefully next time! And there will be a next time!

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.
