" I finally got to try Don Julio after hearing about it for ages! The food was definitely great, especially the shrimp tacos that had a fresh twist and lovely presentation. However, I had a long wait for my food, and the staff seemed overwhelmed. If the service improves, this could be my go-to spot for Mexican cuisine. At the moment, it's still a fantastic place to grab a bite when in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a wonderful dinner experience at Don Julio. The food is authentic, and you can tell they use quality ingredients. I ordered the grilled chicken burrito, and it was enormous! I could barely finish it, and I left quite satisfied. The only downside was the noise level in the restaurant, which made it hard to have a conversation. Still, I plan to come back soon, possibly for a takeout option next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Don Julio has been a traditional favorite of mine for a long time. They never fail to impress with their burritos, which are not only filling but also flavorful. Although the service can be a bit slow during rush hours, it's worth the wait for the food. A must-try for Mexican food lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" Don Julio has the best salsa! I'm usually not a fan of salsa, but theirs is the perfect mix of spicy and tangy. I had the enchiladas, which were amazing, but also shareable. The prices are reasonable for the portions, and the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. Can’t wait to bring more friends here! " (*Curated Review*)

" I always enjoy my visits to Don Julio! The chips and salsa are a must-have; they’re addictive! I've tried several dishes over my visits, and while some were better than others, I consistently find the flavors to be very authentic compared to other Mexican places. The service sometimes can be hit or miss, but overall, I leave satisfied and happy. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Don Julio after hearing great things, but I have to say, I was a bit disappointed. The atmosphere is definitely lively, which I enjoyed, but my tacos were a bit bland. I expected more spices and authenticity. The service was decent, but I received my drink after my meal came out. I might give it another try, but I hope they speed up service and amp up the flavor in their dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I step into Don Julio, I'm transported back to my travels in Mexico. The mariachi music in the background and the colorful decorations set the perfect atmosphere for a delightful meal. I particularly love the tamales – they're rich and filled with flavor, genuinely made like they do in Mexico. However, I did face a couple of minor service issues last time, but the delicious food makes it worthwhile. I recommend this spot to anyone searching for authentic Mexican cuisine.
