La Puertita is an amazing venue which has been restored with authentic Mexican decor.

On May 18, 2025 my husband and I had a wedding Reception and were assisted by Andrea Ward. The table arrangements were discussed and it was also agreed that round tablecloths would be provided. The tablecloths were dropped off nice and pressed at the main office as instructed.

On the day of the recepcion my Decorator arrived at the venue (La Puertita) to find the table arrangement was not as dicussed, wrinkled tablecloths and no event coordinador. After making a phone call one of the managers showed up with one person as backup.

Gratuity is automaticlly applied, but in this case wasn't earned!

The atmosphere was amazing and that is were the experience ended. Shockingly poor service and the food was just ok at best. Disappointing 😭

Worst Mexican food, picture is the inside of my beef enchilada. Inside only had pieces of over cooked, tough meat, nothing else, wrapped in tortilla, with red sauce poured over the tortilla. Rice and beans were ok. Also avoid chicken tortilla soup, only 1 piece of chicken in large bowl of chicken flavor water. It was a total waste of money, won't be going back.

This is a cash only restaurant, so know that ahead of time - there is an ATM on site. Limited menu, but it is very, very good and the portions are great! The tortilla chips are made in house and are the best we have ever tasted. Be careful of the margaritas - they are not short on the liquor so if you are the driver be cautious about having a second one. Be prepared for a wait outside, but they move you fairly quickly - AND you can always go in and get a pitcher of margaritas to help with the wait, but remember about how potent they are.

It's a tourist trap! Don't waste your money. While the food was acceptable, the staff just did not care. They left the impression that it did not matter what the service was like for you; another sucker would show up later. There are better places to spend your hard-earned money for lunch or dinner.

Great experience of a very unique Mexican restaurant. Service was timely and friendly. Fun style for food with it almost being a family style meal with food brought out.

Joe T"s is a huge tourist trap!!! #1 The food is very, very average. The hot sauce tastes like a can of Rotel and Mexican food very bland. Another "quirk" family style service where they throw every ones dinner on an enchilada plate, bean plate etc. The drink prices are outrageous! $11.50 for small House margarita. $45.00 for a pitcher of cheap tequila and limeade. Also the only take cash, they do provide ATM's for your convenience $3.50 charge. Don't forget all the tourists so your parking feels like a mile away.

The beef fajitas were great. The chips were moderate. Overall, we thought it was a bit overrated. And it only accepts cash.

The place is great for the atmosphere, the food was just okay. The service was fast but tried to take plate twice before we were done eating. The no menu is no good, we ended up ordering what we wanted to eat and ended up with six extra tacos and a table full of food we had to throw away.

Great atmosphere great food! Margaritas are sensational and strong! Cash only!!!(They do have an ATM on site) . Menu is limited, which is great. Everything is fresh. The guacamole is to die for! Sit on the patio if weather permits, they also have indoor dining. You can take the family or have a great dinner with friends!

After our granddaughter and great granddaughter arrived on the train, we brought them to Joe T's for the outdoor dining experience. Although it was very hot that day, the patio area is pleasant with fans moving the air around. The food was awesome and we all enjoyed our dining experience. Oh, the margaritas are awesome too!
