I went yesterday with my son, and it was both of our first time there. I ordered the build your own burrito with barrbacoa. Let me tell you that barbacoa was AMAZING! It was juicy and full of flavor. My son ordered the chicken enchiladas, and said that the corn tortillas were the best he had ever had. I felt like the chips were homemade, and the salsa was fresh tasting, and only a little bit spicy! The waitress was just okay, but the more mature woman that checked us out was super sweet! The restaurant is a wonderful little hole-in-the wall find, that I am glad to have found. Give it a try even though it looks a bit sketchy on the outside, because you are going to LOVE the food!!

They gave me about 7 small cubed potatoes not worth the cost of the meal and it had a funny taste to it...food was not good and the one server forgot us a couple of times service was horrible and so was the food, they don't even deserve one star or even half. Seriously terrible all the way

Joel's Restaurant serve authentic Mexican food. This is a place we visit regularly. The food is always top notch and the service can't be beat. This is a small family oriented restaurant so I would suggest that you get there early. The parking is a bit limited so it might be a good idea to carpool over for lunch. I hope to see you there.

Breakfast food was delicious. The staff was friendly. The place is decorated with Dallas Cowboys items. It is located in the middle of a residential area.

Called in and ordered food, waited over 20 minutes in the drive thru and no one came. The sign above drive thru said open, I tried to call the restaurant no one answered. When I went inside to get my food, it had already been almost 40 minutes since I had called and my food wasn’t even ready.

Food is always good and customer service is good too, place is a little small so when they are busy you have to wait for table but it’s worth the wait!!
