Don José Restaurant San Juan Reviews
Great place for dinner time with my GRANDDAUGHTER. Picked them up from school practice had to feed them.
Dont know what happened ? Don Jose was our go to for breakfast or lunch if my place was too busy.. We usually ate late afternoon [past review gave it 5 star] this visit food was awful my eggs were slimy after I ordered well done ,beans had a 3 day old taste , Don't know what ingredients they used on the papas they had a fishy after taste. If I'm hungry I'll still eat if it's not to bad ,but this I left almost a full plate walked out. No wonder place was empty at 11 on a Sat.
I came across this restaurant and I was surprised. Iove the mixture of the dishes and diversity of plate choices. Food is delicious with fast service and the prices are incredible. Now this restaurant is one of my favorite places to stop, when I am in town. I definitely recommend this place.
My new favorite place!! Our server Isabel was the best - sweet, fast, friendly and super helpful (give her a raise!!) The three in my party ordered the skillets - the food was super HOT (I eat slow and my food never got cold)and tasty. The only reason I didn’t give a 5 star is because after we sat down a couple came in, sat next to us and played videos on there phone while we ate (I know this isn’t the restaurants fault) but when I complained and mentioned it to the lady at the register - she didn’t care. She smiled and shrugged. I took a pic of the couple playing their annoying videos, FULL VOLUME - never once did they shut them off - ugh. We’ll be back but hopefully the rude people will stay home.
Let’s start with it’s not that bad, I have definitely had worse. But on that note, the huevos ranchero sauce was thick like gravy but colored like queso but with tomato sauce. Eggs were cooked perfect potatoes too soft, the tea tasted like it had tamarindo in it? Which was weird. There was only one egg waitress seemed nice didn’t talk to her to much. One major thing for me. Was I could taste the smell in there which was not sure if it was cleaning product or dirty water. Take that as you will
Food was either way to salty or no salt at all. Ordered the huevos Ranchero with 2 pork Chops. Only came with one and they said that they are CHANGING the menu and will come with one but the menu still says 2. Cheese was square cheap cheese for the bean and cheese tacos. Called the restaurant, lady on phone didn't know much and when I asked to speak to manager, there was no one in charge at the moment. Horrible place to get food from.
First off this manager needs to have a long talk with someone above her because she shouldn’t act the way she does to customers, they put sausage instead of bacon & I called to simply get new tacos & she said it was door dashes fault ( work from home I can’t leave ) & I or someone with identification & ONLY them Need to come & get the tacos by 3 , overall she did not handle the situation with kindness.. there’s always an easier/nicer way to to treat people . It’s okay to make mistakes miss manager, just don’t ruins people perspective about your restaurant about it 🤷🏻♀️
Did not enjoy the breakfast. I ordered Huevos Ranchero with eggs over medium and both eggs were solid (NO YOKE). The potatoes look old and overly greasy. My Sweetie ordered Huevos RANCHERO with pork chops. The menus states 2 pork chops. The plate came with 1 Chop, so I asked the waitress. She states it comes with 1 chop. I showed her the menu that states 2 and she said, "That is an error in the menu." They serve a green salsa and a water pico de Gallo looking salsa. I was not a fan of either. We will not go back. I should at the least get what the menu states and how we ordered the meal.
