Opinions de Don Jose's Mexican Restaurant Castro Valley
Great staff, amazing food! Deserts? OMG fabulous! If you come to this part of town and you don't dine here it means that you haven't seen anything!
Cool little spot. This is our second time and we will definitely return.
I spilled my Chicken Torilla soup all over my leather seats! When i called them to order another, they graciously replaced it. It was christmas eve and the staff were all so great! Thank you guys!!!!
sit st the bar for happy hour .. cheap food great drinks fast service bartender is great
Fantastic Experience at Don Jose’s Mexican Restaurant! I had an amazing time at Don Jose’s! The food was absolutely delicious — full of flavor, fresh, and beautifully presented. Our server, Natalie P., was outstanding — friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. Highly recommended to anyone looking for great Mexican food and excellent service. I’ll definitely be coming back again soon! 🌮👏
A go to for margaritas, drinks and chips! Bar area is nice and the bartender is very attentive and makes sure you're good. Food wise, I do enjoy their carnitas plate and their guac.
Entrance to the restaurant is unique for the area it's in. The restaurant has out side seating- even tho you are under a roof and a safety wall you have the chance to experience a bit of fresh air. I'm the restaurant you have a very nice environment with a nice open view to the restaurant in different angles, no clutter of tables and decorations on the ceiling are pretty (Metal piñata shaped lanterns). To the food we go. I ordered a Cocktail and a water, and it was delicious. Plenty of liquor. For food I had a chicken enchiladas with green sauce, my son had a Bean and beef burrito and my other half had Chicken flautas. Everything was delicious. Best part was that we asked for 2 sides of guacamole- one with tomatoes and without. The waitress was great responding to the order without any hesitation that she would bring them. Only my opinion- on the flautas I like them crunchy and since they are made with flour tortillas they where not as crunchy as if made with corn. But they are a great size with the flour tortillas.
Service was good and food was also good nice clean. That place has been there over 36 plus years.
We stopped by for happy hour and appetizers. We appreciate the special happy hour pricing, even on weekends. The staff is friendly and attentive. We ordered food for takeout. Everything tasted yummy.... Update 2025: we stop by about once a month to meet friends for a bite at lunch or happy hour. Service is still friendly and quick with good food.
The food was okay. I expected a better flavor but it was just okay. I was disappointed in the kids taco meal it had a store bought taco shell. Not cool. My Chicken Tostada was okay. Again it didn't have an authentic flavor it was a bit bland and chicken was dry. I added the red salsa to get some flavor. On the other hand The rice & beans were good.. my family liked it lots. On the other hand staff is amazing very helpful. I will be back again to support our local restaurants but I hope the cook does a better job.
Portions were small. Had bought 2 shots of expensive tequila,one for my sister one for myself, $30 each and you could taste it had been mixed with Jose or Patron... disappointed. Also bought a pitcher of margarita and it tasted like all mixer. Chips were cold and stale, I asked for no guacamole and got it. Wife asked for no Pico and got it... Were from out of town and not going back to that Restaurant there are others that ate better.
Food was on time, service was not as great, no coffee refill, they made a mistake with my order
We were greeted and seated right away. They brought us warm chips with salsa. The chips were ok but the salsa was watered down and didn't have much flavor or anything in it. It was very runny. The drinks were the best thing. I had a margarita. I had a combination plate with a chili relleno, chicken taco, rice and beans. The chili relleno had so much cheese I hardly tasted the chili. I didn't care for the sauce either. The beans and rice were bland. The rice had no onions or Vegetables in it and hardly any taste. The chicken taco had plenty of chicken but that's all. My daughter gave me her guacamole and I put it in the taco for flavor. Nothing was hot or spicy which I like in my Mexican food. If you like mild Mexican food then you'll like it here. My daughter liked her chicken burrito .
Food was pretty bland and honestly wasn’t worth finishing. We both got the fajitas and were just disappointed in the lack of flavor in everything.
I don't recommend coming to the bar at this restaurant because the girl who works there was very rude to my friends and me. My friends have been there more often than I have, but the two or three times I've gone, she's served us, and she's always been very rude and given us bad looks. But this last time was horrible. She served us our drinks reluctantly and spoke to us very curtly. The worst part was when my friend wanted to order another beer, and he tried to get her attention a couple of times, but she ignored us. Finally, my friend said, "Excuse me, Ehh" and she exploded, yelling at us incredibly rudely, saying she wasn't going to serve us anymore because we're always rude to her (when she's the one who's always rude), that we always give her bad looks, that we always talk badly about her, and that we should never come back when she's working (which, honestly, I do plan to do). The truth is, we never talk about her. We're just people who are tired after work and want to relax and talk about personal things , but she was incredibly rude and disrespected us terribly. If you don't want to have a bad experience like we did, it's best not to come here.
I went there last night for dinner & drinks. We sat down on the patio right away, but left after waiting 25 minutes for service. To be fair, the poor bartender looked completely overwhelmed, and the mgr person there did absolutely nothing! He should’ve come out to see about service. We did ask several times, but were ignored. The table next to ours waited a long time as well! We ended up at JP’S a block away where we were seated, acknowledged and served right away.
This was a very expensive mistake. The food was edible only because I was very hungry. I don’t know how they keeps the lights on with food that comes from cans, guessing because they charge like it’s gourmet. For your experience, please go somewhere else until they can change their quality of food. Canned Chip Salsa Canned Vegetables Hidden valley ranch from the bottle Etc.
