" I love the vibrancy of the decor in San Jose's. It's such a welcoming place. I had the shrimp tacos; they were incredibly flavorful! The staff was super friendly but a bit slow to serve. But, once the food came, it was worth the wait. I would recommend stopping by if you're in the mood for spicy, delicious Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I expected more from San Jose's after hearing how authentic it was supposed to be. The tacos fell short on flavor, and while the atmosphere was decent, it didn't make up for the lack of quality in the food. The service was fine, but I won't rush back. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I had a fantastic time at San Jose's Original Mexican Restaurant last weekend! We ordered a bunch of dishes to share, and everything was delicious. The carne asada burrito was a highlight, bursting with flavor and generous portions. The house margaritas were perfect for pairing with our meal. The staff was friendly, and the ambiance was perfect for a cozy night out. Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband and I visited San Jose's for our anniversary. The atmosphere was charming, although it was quite noisy. We started with chips and salsa, and while the salsa had a good kick, the chips felt a bit stale. For our main courses, I had enchiladas, which were decent, but I wished they had been spicier. The service was attentive. Overall, it was a good experience but there’s room for improvement. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! What a fantastic place! The tortilla chips were fresh and their salsa was tasty, truly a delightful start to our meal. I had the chicken fajitas, which were sizzling! The service was impeccable; all the staff were friendly and attentive. We ended our meal with delicious churros. Can't recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" We came here hoping for a great meal after hearing about San Jose's from friends. The ambiance was cozy, but my beef burrito lacked seasoning. My dining companion's chimichanga was much better, so it was hit or miss for our group. I think I'd give it another shot, but with different dishes next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I found San Jose's Original Mexican Restaurant to be quite enjoyable. The atmosphere is lively, and the staff seem genuinely happy to serve. I had the fajitas, which were deliciously sizzling and packed with flavor. I also tried their house-made salsa, which had just the right amount of kick. Overall, a great meal, and I will definitely return for more! " (*Curated Review*)
