" We had a great dining experience at La Josie! The ambiance was lively and perfect for a night out. The waitstaff was attentive and nice. However, I felt that my order took an excessively long time, which detracted from the experience. The tacos were delicious and well-presented, but the lengthy wait for food could be improved. I'd probably go back, but I'll be more cautious about peak times. " (*Curated Review*)

" A lovely place to catch up with friends over great food! I had their carne asada and it was delightful; cooked to perfection and packed with spices. The atmosphere is cozy with just the right amount of energy. Service was polite and knowledgeable. The only thing that could make it better would be slightly faster service during busy hours. Will definitely come again and might bring my family next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Really enjoyed my time at La Josie! The diversity in the menu is impressive, and the food was delicious. I had the elote and loved the fresh taste. The only downside was the price; it did feel a bit steep for the amount of food provided. Still a solid choice for a fun night with friends or a date night. Would love to come back someday! " (*Curated Review*)

" Stopped by La Josie after hearing great things and it lived up to the hype! The flavors in my torta were fantastic, each ingredient full of freshness. It had a great vibe—very lively and fun. The only downfall was the wait time for our food; it felt longer than expected although our server was really nice and attempted to check in regularly. I'll definitely try to come back again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, this is one of the best Mexican restaurants I've been to in the city! When you first step in, you're greeted by a warm atmosphere that just feels vibrant. The flavors are unique yet authentic, and each dish I tried had me raving. I ordered the Barbacoa tacos, and they were incredible—rich, well-seasoned, and genuinely enjoyable. The service was prompt, and the staff knew the menu inside out, which helped with my choices. I'll definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was recommended La Josie by a friend and it surely did not disappoint! I went during happy hour and took advantage of the delicious margaritas—very refreshing. The elote was a delightful surprise, and the flavors of each dish reminded me of some of my favorite meals from Mexico. The only downside was we had to wait a little for a table, but it was worth it! A perfect place for a date night. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had another great dining experience at La Josie! As always, the tacos were exceptionally flavorful and the atmosphere was lively. Our server was attentive and had fantastic recommendations. I decided to try a mezcal flight this time, and wow, it opened up a whole new world of flavors for me. The guacamole paired so well with the chips—definitely a must-order! I'll keep coming back for more. " (*Curated Review*)
