Do not come here if you are expecting Mexican food lol. Chimichanga was essentially chicken parm and the chicken tacos MAYBE had pepper on them… nothing else. Nice people though. Warm salsa was good.

We love Chez Jose. They're a family favorite from my childhood and while the new ownership has modified the menu slightly it's still amazing and has a great selection. The staff are always lovely.

Used to be our favorite restaurant but what happened to the warm salsa, chunks of onion in the cold salsa and items with goat cheese. Plus my college age kids would rather go somewhere else because of the fajitas. We’ve been going since the kids were little. Bummer

Why change what people loved? Lines & waiting while having a margarita. Miss it!

Still great staff & service.

Fast and friendly service, the food was prepared well. Similar experience to a lot of other Mexican restaurants. However, it did have an elevated feel to it

We have come here for years primarily to enjoy the goat cheese Quesadilla - we are VERY disappointed it has been taken off an otherwise fine menu… our server Matt A has always been excellent and the meal was good but we urge you to restore the unique and delicious goat cheese quesadilla!

Based on the website we had hopes that this would be a cut above the usual Mexican place. Nope. Nothing wrong with the food but Just the same old same old. Good service.

They charge for chips and salsa, and the quality is not there.

The old owners have sold the restaurant to more Chez Jose lovers & they have kept all the same recipes....except the hot salsa is how blended rather than the bits of veggies that used to there just in a different way. Same great taste!

Vegetarian options: Butternut squash enchiladas are to die for.

I was told that this restaurant was saved after covid and that the food quality remained excellent. Maybe I was expecting too much. Chile relleno what is below average. Rice was dry, black beans were just okay. Waiter at least did his job, but no more. Nothing here would make me want to go back.
