Tia Julia Albans Reviews
10/10 restaurant. Amazing food and amazing service.
Every time I’m in 90 roosevelt ave I always go to Tia Julia, I will always get a torta, but one time I got rice and beans, there were 2 options, 5$ rice and beans or 10$ rice and beans, both are very cheap but u chose the 5$ dollar rice and beans. When I went into my car, it was so good. Customer service is great they are friendly every single time I come. I definitely recommend coming here.

The food truck service from the lady who serves is horrible, super rude, the food is good but they should put another friendlier person to work

Yesterday I went and ordered three tacos and my friend ordered a torta de milanesa for take out. The tacos did not have a good taste at all. My friend's torta basically had more jalapenos than anything else. I was charged $12 for 3 tacos, which was not worth it. I definitely do not recommend this place! I see other reviews saying food was delicious so I don't know why our take-out food did not have a great taste!
