Juan was perfect! Cups stayed filled, food was delivered hot and promptly. He checked on us at regular intervals yet didn’t hover. 10/10 excellent service! Fajitas are worth it! Get you some!

I wanted to take a moment to recognize the outstanding service provided by Maribel during my visit on 12/04/2025. Her attentiveness, professionalism, and warm attitude truly elevated the dining experience. She anticipated our needs, offered thoughtful recommendations, and ensured everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Please extend my appreciation to Maribel for their exceptional work. It’s employees like her who make guests want to return. Kind regards, Jose Luna

Had my Birthday Dinner Celebration here Yesterday and it was me and my family’s first and I just wanted to say GREAT FOOD , SERVICE & ATMOSPHERE!!! Loved it ❣️

Mr. AD Hill

Great service and great food as always. I had the shredded chicken tortilla bowl and 2 grand Cadillacs. The drinks was amazing, I can definitely feel it lol..

We went there as a family and enjoyed chicken fajitas. They were so good this place cooks. The best chicken in the world is not overdone. We also enjoyed the salsa and chips. Some of my guest at the table got corn tortillas. Our waiter was fabulous. The food was warm cook just right and I thought the price was great. The restaurant was very clean and the parking was easy. We actually had reservations just to make sure we could get a table. We enjoyed ourselves a lot. I highly recommend this location.

Uncle Julio’s and overall it was a pleasant experience with many highlights, though there were a few details that could be improved. We ordered carnitas, fajitas for two, and for dessert, the churro cake with cajeta. The carnitas were the star of the night – juicy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious, served with beans that we loved, packed with that homemade taste. The warm, handmade tortillas were perfect for making tacos and enjoying every bite. On the other hand, the fajitas were a bit disappointing. The portion was very small for two people, the meat lacked flavor, and unfortunately, it had sinew, which made it feel like the cut wasn’t of the best quality. The churro cake with cajeta was a great way to finish the meal sweet, rich, and perfect for sharing. As for the service, it was excellent. The staff was friendly and attentive throughout our visit, and the drink we ordered was delicious, which helped make the overall experience enjoyable despite the fajitas. In summary, Uncle Julio’s offers a nice atmosphere, outstanding service, tasty drinks, and desserts worth trying, but we feel that the fajitas could use improvement in flavor, portion size, and meat quality to match the rest of the experience.

Great restaurant. Food was awesome and the guac made table side will always win. The service was great from the door to the table. Great experience and food. Would recommend for a lunch time stop or even for dinner. The steak fajita bowl is my recommendation but with no onions. They load it with onions.

We have been waiting to try this spot, as it’s always very busy. We finally made reservations for Valentines and it was fantastic! Scott the manager was so generous and accommodating even with the slightest order discrepancies. It was a 10/10 dining experience and I recommend the shrimp and crab stuffed pablano with cheesecake churros and vanilla bean ice cream!!!

My family, friends, and I visited Uncle Julio's yesterday for Valentines Day, which was also my birthday. It was a great experience. We enjoyed the food, the atmosphere, and the service. The manager Scott was were welcoming and came around to see how things were going and even gave some great recommendations. But the waitress of the day award goes to Amira but we called her Mi-Mi. She was such a delight and it was a pleasure to have her as our server. The food was overall very good. I didn't necessarily like one of the salsas and I wasn't a fan of the bacon wrapped cheese & jalapeño stuffed shrimp. The bacon just wasn't done enough. So that was a little disappointing but everything else we ate was top notch. We ordered drinks and all types of entrees. I really enjoyed the Swirl Margarita (it was margarita & sangria mixed)... so good! And the fajitas are amazing! I truly enjoyed my time here and will definitely be back!

I'm delighted to give this Mexican restaurant a well-deserved 5-star rating. The interior and ambiance were exceptional, creating a wonderful atmosphere for our meal. The server's warm welcome and enthusiasm truly enhanced our dining experience. We began with delightful non-alcoholic drinks like the mango passion lemonade and strawberry lemonade, which were outstanding. While some appetizers seemed a bit pricey, the standout was the fish and shrimp ceviche, truly awesome. The main dishes like enchiladas and fajitas were fantastic, and the tortilla bowls filled with chicken and cauliflower were delicious, though a bit filling. The chocolate pinata was a unique experience, albeit pricey. Save it for special occasions to make your loved ones feel truly special. For other dessert options, consider something else. Overall, it was a very good experience that I highly recommend.

The food was flavorful, but the portions were smaller than expected for the price. I tried the fajitas, and while the meat was tender, it didn’t have the smoky, grilled flavor I usually enjoy. The sides, like the guacamole and beans, were good, but the chips were a bit stale. The service was friendly, but it took longer than I expected for the food to arrive. The atmosphere was lively and vibrant, perfect for a casual night out, but overall, I think there are other Mexican restaurants in the area that offer better value.

Staff members and waiters were very polite and friendly. Give them 5 stars. First let me say I hate giving bad reviews. However, I tell it like it is. I’ve been to this Uncle Julio’s many many times. Today we went for a late lunch. The place was almost empty. Placed an order for Fajitas for two. Beef and Chicken. First let’s talk about Chips and Salsa. Chips had a taste of old grease. Zero salt or other seasoning. Salsa was tasteless. I mean no taste at all. Not a hint of spices or heat. Most Mexican Restaurants offer hot chips with at least some salt. Some are dusted with paprika or chili powder. The fajitas came out on a semi warm platter. No sizzle. No steam. Chicken was warm and tender but bland. Skirt steak was tough as leather. Grizzle. No marinade. No tenderness. No taste. Cut in big chunks. Charro Beans needs seasoning on to be cooked another hour. Onions were barely cooked. A few peppers and were overcooked to being nonexistent. The jalapeño was cooked, on one side! The entire entree screamed “ I dont care, just eat it” I asked the waiter Jack to bring more chicken in place of the skirt steak. The manager came out quickly with a generous portion of chicken at no charge. I’m not a chef. But I do know how to season properly, tenderize tough meat and know what to do to make a meal enjoyable to eat. It’s obvious that no one is tasting the food that they serve and correcting the stated issues.

Had the grilled chicken breast . I wouldn't recommend chicken was grilled no seasoning and the skin was rubbery .saving grace it was juicy. If it was marinated would have been awesome.

Totally enjoyed trying this restaurant out. It was a busy Mother’s Day afternoon and the staff was on their A-game. We were seated immediately and the young lady who served us was awesome. She was friendly and efficient. She got our orders and constantly checked in to see if we were doing fine and if we needed anything else. The manager met with all the guests to ensure great service. The drinks menu has a good selection of margaritas, beer and wine options. Watermelon margarita was the drink the month. Chips are served with 2 kinds of salsa - the smokey bbq salsa was different & unique. Enchiladas and tacos are what we ordered and the food tasted great. The ice cream ball for dessert was amazing - definitely shareable. Ambiance of the restaurant was upscale and spacious. Lots of parking available. Would recommend making a reservation for evenings and special occasions. Pricing : Moderate high Will I return? : For sure!

Not impressed. Loved that we were able to make a reservation on NY Eve, no wait was seated immediately. Our order was a disaster beer was hot, never brought us our queso, forgot chicken on fajita trio, bacon was raw on bacon wrapped shrimp, forgot our rice & beans. The waitress was sweet but didn’t have a clue. I had a $50 gift card that I purchased sitting there at the table because they were given a $15 reward card and she tried to tell me that my gift card expired that day at 5:24. I was trying to explain to her that that was the time I bought the gift card there’s no way it had expired. We did the piñata for dessert and it was good. Overall would not recommend which might be why they were not busy on New Years Eve.

Came in at lunch and got seated right away. Ruben, our server was friendly and attentive. Didn’t ask how everything was when you had a mouthful of food, haha. Chips and salsa were good, a little salty on some chips, but it happens. Ordered the rice bowls, steak and chicken. That is where it kinda went downhill. Not much flavor in either. The steak had no fajita steak taste I was expecting. Chicken was bland and didn’t taste very good. Cilantro rice also lacked flavor, looked like regular rice with some cilantro leaves added. Great service and atmosphere, location also is easy to get in and out of, just this food was not as expected.

We ordered fajitas and was surprised an order for one beef Fajitas was 30 dollars. Buy the time you got guacamole and a Margarita or two with tax and tip it was over $100 per person!

First off want to express that this was one of the worst experiences I’ve had in my entire life. It takes top 3 worst restaurants and worst customer service experiences we’ve encountered. Not only did they fail to put us on the actual wait list for an hour after having us sit in the waiting area and then have us wait another 25 mins after that, they then didn’t even take our drink order for almost 40 mins. Once another 30 mins passed we ordered food and it took another hour and a half to receive the food- almost everyone at the table received incorrect food. That took another 25 mins to get it fixed. The manager even came around to ask how things were doing and we explained how awful it’s been and they offered to comp a chocolate piñata, THAT NEVER CAME EITHER. we never saw the manager again after that offer had been made. It took another half hour just to find our waiter and ask for the checks. Those were handed out incorrectly too after it was explained who in our group needed to be billed for what items. I will never come back here after they ruined what was supposed to be a surprise party for my birthday. This was absolutely one of the worst experiences I’ve had at a restaurant. This was so absurd and so very disappointing.

Just skip it, and find something better. Server did his best, but you can tell they are very understaffed. Quality of the food is bad now and the menu is less than half what it was. Bought in 2024 by an investment group that destroyed this restraint. We were there on a Sunday evening...maybe 1/3 of the tables occupied, so that should have ben a warning.

Sad Face! We but live over 20 min from this location. Passed a lot of great places. Tonight was a fail. We got seated quickly but then waited for 29 minutes for anyone to help us. I finally got up and asked another server if our section was closed or if we even had a server. She said she’d find someone. Service was slow. Food arrived cold. Brought out by some other server. My recommendation. Check out other local Tex Mex restaurants in the area. There are a lot of good ones close by. I’m sad Uncle Julio’s is the uncle I don’t want to visit again. Check out Esparza’s.
