What People's Say About Place

I don’t know why this place has such a low rating; it should be at least 4.8. I’m giving it 5 stars for everything because they deserve more customers. I had the Fajitas de Mar and it was delicious. Everything was fresh, portions were big, and prices were good too. It was one of the best unexpected New Year’s Eve dishes.

My brother, aunt, and I went to here last week and had an amazing time! The employees were nice and they were fast with serving. We came at a perfect time so that it was not busy, it was a calm experience. Our food was so good! I was the Quesabrirria, it was so good and cheesy! Thank you to the employees of the restaurant! :D

Always the best! I live an hour away but it's worth it. I'm always stuffed but still order a large chips and salsa to go bc they're so yummy! We have a Mexican American restaurant nearby but there is NO comparison to the food and prices! Don Julio's is great!

Had the Flautas. (4 Flautas! Most places give you 3) Everything was delicious and seasoned well. Their house salsa is perfect. PERFECT example of that authentic Mexican food we all grew up with in the 80s and 90s. Of it ain't broke don't fix it. Their menu looks extensive so I'd love to come back and try more.

Don Julio is exceptional!!! . This is the fourth location that I visited and on every location has been a wonderful experience. (You can see it from my past reviews). From the service as you walk in, the great menu selection, the delicious taste of the food to the prices. A great place to go with a date, with the family or just with friends to enjoy some great margaritas If you are looking for a great Mexican food experience, just look for your nearest Don Julio restaurant, you will thank me for the advice.

Everything we have ever ordered here has been fresh, delicious and flavorful. Great Margaritas, cold Corona and the kids love the many types of Jarrito Sodas. We will continue to return!

Service was great. Chili Relleno and Chalupa were great. Service for six was handled well, no issues and all food came at the same time. Quick and no waiting.

Food is consistently good and served fast and hot. I had the fish & seafood fajitas and could only eat half. The watermelon Margherita was delicious. Fresh made tortilla chips and salsa are great too. Dessert prices are cheaper than other restaurants and shareable sizes. The take out food is reliably good too.
