El San Jose Mexican Restaurant

Very nice place with great staff and great food

Mango margaritas are the best!

I NEVER make reviews unless I’m just fed up.
Me and my family order the same items EACH time. The Taco Salad Supreme, Fijeita LUNCH special, and a kids tender plate. ALWAYS equals up to $30. THIS time, the man charged me for a taco and the DINNER special and the kids meal, and it equaled up to $30. How? The man doesn’t take his TIME to LISTEN to someone’s order and he screws it up and you’re expected to pay for it and pay extra for the CORRECT items. Someone replace that guy, HE IS TRASH.

Our waiter was amazing, food was great. Wish we lived closer would be a weekly deal.

The take out I got was awful!! The Mexicano steak was overcooked, the fajita mix was burnt along with the vegetables!! The chicken tenders overcooked and dried out!! The worse Mexican food I have ever had!!! I Won’t be back!!!

Rib eye steak was not grill it was fried and tasted like chewing leather. I told the lady I wanted the rib eye leather to go to feed my dog and the girl brought a box with no bag, meanwhile other people they had other the left over to go and they took their food to the back and brought it back all nice and pack in a box and back. I think is maybe racial profile. But anyway I will not be coming back here to eat. I rather go eat at 7 11.

They don't have professionalism, they don't treat you well if you're Spanish, I don't like the way I haven't finished eating yet and he brought me the bill.

This was some really good Mexican food. I did not expect to find this in Lake City. Four of us went in and found the portions to be so much we got to go boxes.
Service was top notch. We didn't wait long for any beverages to be filled. And the food was prepared and sent out within 10 minutes. I recommend giving them a try.

Kid-friendliness: Plenty of kids eating when we were there.

Wheelchair accessibility: A nice door for a wheelchair to get inside. Also many tables are set up to accommodate wheelchairs.

We had to wait 20 minutes to have our order taken. When I got my food my meat was cold and my chips were microwaved to the plate, the cheese was already cold and getting hard. It was the worst dinner I have experienced in a long time. So not worth the money I had to pay for it.

The food was amazing! Very creative the way how they present the cups on the little bowls,also the glass for water! So cute
Our food was so good!!! The service was great and the atmosphere was like being in a Latin country, the music as a background was a delight ,soft romantic and in Spanish

How they present the salad in my dish was so nice and original, it was a mini taco salad type: a little tortilla bowl.
All the servers very professional and smiling faces, I loved their uniform, well dresses
I highly recommend this restaurant.
From one side of the street I thought it was out of business but on the other side of the street it look great and open to the public.
Bathrooms were clean and well taken care of it. Enough parking place and is obvious that locals come and eat, they got very busy at lunch time.
The decoration/paints on the walls was very nice ?
I must comeback next time I am on the side of town with friends or family.
Totally family friendly and prices are reasonable.
