I had the shrimp fajitas; it was delicious. The staff was attentive and friendly. Only downside was the small parking lot.

I love to find these little hidden gems off the beaten path. Who ever thinks, while driving through Nowheresville, Iowa, that you'd find a fantastic Mexican restaurant. Well we did.The food was great. We had the chicken fajitas and nachos with Chorizo.

Stopped here after biking on a beautiful Fall day. The place is clean and the staff is super friendly. The menu had a wide selection, which made it hard to decide. Our food arrived quickly and was top notch. We will definitely be back the next time we are in the area.

Don Jose Family Mexican Restaurant was a wonderful experience. I've been meaning to stop in and enjoy some real authentic Mexican food but every time I go by it is packed full of people with some waiting outside! I now understand why. Delicious food, kind and friendly staff and a great atmosphere ensures that I'll be back here when I can to try a different, delicious dish. I had the beef Colorado burrito and my wife got chicken taquitos. Both were delicious and very filling and also came with sides of refried beans and rice. I would recommend Don Jose Family Mexican Restaurant to anyone who wants a taste of good, authentic Mexican cuisine at reasonable prices.
