" Decided to give No Way Jose’s a try on our trip to Gatlinburg and I’m so glad we did! The environment was bright and lively, making for an enjoyable dining experience. The salsa was particularly excellent and the tacos were filled with well-cooked meat. However, the service was a tad slow, possibly due to the restaurant being busy. Overall, a great experience, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for good food! " (*Curated Review*)

" While I appreciated the atmosphere and quick service, I found the food to be lacking. Struggled to find any bold seasoning in my dish, despite it being well-prepared. The decor is charming, but the flavors didn’t reflect true Mexican cuisine. It may work for casual dining, but if you're looking for authenticity, this might not be your best bet. " (*Curated Review*)

" An enjoyable evening at No Way Jose's that saw us treated to good food and service. I loved the chicken quesadilla; it was cheesy and satisfying! We were made to feel welcome throughout the visit, though a little more attention during busy rushes would be appreciated. Overall, a fun restaurant to let off steam after a day of exploring! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, an okay experience at No Way Jose's. Yes, the service was friendly, but the food didn’t quite match up to the reviews I’d seen online. The tacos were standard, nothing special to write home about. The lively atmosphere is enjoyable, but when it comes to food, I needed something more flavorful. Maybe it was just a busy night for them. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic food! We loved every dish we ordered at No Way Jose’s. Everything was fresh, and the flavors were spot on. The atmosphere was lively and vibrant with a great mix of families and tourists. The only downside was it took a little while for our meal to arrive since it was busy, but it was worth the wait! Highly recommend trying the enchiladas! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great atmosphere and food, but the service was a bit inconsistent on our visit. The staff were mostly friendly and eager to help, but at times, we felt neglected, especially when waiting for drink refills. The chicken tamales were a highlight of the meal; they were the most authentic I’ve had in a long time! Overall, this restaurant has a lot of potential; just needs to iron out the service kinks. I would still recommend it for the food. " (*Curated Review*)

" No Way Jose's was a delightful dining experience. The environment was very laid-back, which made for a nice family meal. The nachos were to die for, and my husband loved the shrimp tacos. Our server was friendly; however, I was a bit disappointed by the dessert selection since it seemed limited. Nonetheless, we will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)
