My most recent visit to Jose Pistola's was amazing. Michael the manager is the reason Jose Pistola's feels like more than just a restaurant or a bar. He is incredibly warm and attentive. You can tell he truly cares about the guests and his staff. Sofia was our waitress and she was spectacular, she made sure to explain everything to us even the specials. I cant wait untill our next visit.

Good bar! Ordered a few margarita pitchers with friends and they were strong! Got the guacamole as an appetizer but had to remind the server a few times that we were still missing it before it came out, after the entrees. Got the wings and they were full of flavor but could have used a little bit more sauce.

I don't even remember what the heck I ordered now, but I do remember that it was super delicious! Our waitress was amazing too. Not an overly large place, but definitely somewhere I would visit again.
