" My first visit to Don José was a bit underwhelming. While the ambiance was nice and the staff friendly, I found the food lacking in authenticity. I ordered the mole enchiladas, but the sauce felt too sweet compared to the bold flavors I expected. To top it off, my drink took a while to arrive, which affected my overall experience. I might give it another shot, but I hope they improve on their flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been coming to Don José for years, and the food is always consistently excellent. From their beef enchiladas to their freshly made tamales, everything is rich in flavor. I appreciate the family-owned vibe; it feels like home when I visit. The servers remember my favorites and often recommend new dishes to try based on my tastes. If you’re looking for authentic Mexican food in a welcoming environment, definitely check this place out. The margaritas are a must-try too! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last night was my first experience at Don José. The ambiance was cozy, and the staff was warm and welcoming. I particularly enjoyed their homemade margaritas paired with the guacamole—absolutely delicious! However, my carne guisada could have used more seasoning. Overall, a delightful experience, but there's room for improvement on certain dishes. I’ll still come back for the margaritas and guacamole! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you love authentic Mexican food, Don José is the place to be! I just had a meal there where the tacos al pastor were divine. It reminded me of my travels in Mexico. The staff was excellent, always checking in but never overbearing. The restaurant has a family-friendly environment. I also enjoyed a refreshing horchata that went perfectly with my meal. Highly recommend visiting this charming spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" Don José is fantastic! As a lover of spicy food, I can't recommend the shrimp tacos enough! Fresh and vibrant with just the right kick! The decor is quite charming, giving it an authentic feel. I appreciated how attentive our waiter was, always making sure our drinks were full and that all our needs were met promptly. I can't wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)
