Uncle Julio’s is a Mexican from scratch kitchen serving only the freshest ingredients. Specialties include: chicken & steak fajitas, tender filet mignon, and bacon wrapped shrimp. Other favorites include: seafood fajitas, shrimp al pastor, red snapper, or ahi tuna served with homemade corn tortillas or bibb lettuce.

Uncle Julio’s menu also includes Tex-Mex classics such as tacos, enchiladas & tamales all with a selection of sauces made daily. Insider tip: order the tableside guacamole. It’s prepared for you at your table; if you like it spicy kick it up a notch with fresh chopped jalapenos.

Uncle Julio’s has a vast drink selection. Try our fresh margarita of the day, made to order with fresh fruit. If you prefer a frozen drink then the Swirl is definitely the perfect choice. The Swirl is frozen sangria & frozen margarita layered together dating back to 1987.

Our server was very attentive and very prompt, and he was great with giving us recommendations and knowing the menu well. Our food and drinks came out quickly and was sooooooo good. I honestly have no bad comments or anything that I’d change about our experience. This was our first time here and I’m so glad we came!

I’d only recommend going for the chocolate piñata! Bad/extremely slow service. Had reservations for 6pm, they sat us early which was great. Was there for 2.5 hours for 2 kids meals, chicken quesadillas and fish tacos. We did pre-order the dessert so we weren’t waiting on that.

I understand that this is a Tex-Mex restaurant but the food was dry. The rice was dry and salty with no flavor. Beans had no cilantro or cooked onions and very salty. I ate Pechuga and supposedly the chicken was to be very soft and juicy. I found it to be chewy and not flavorful or juicy. We had 2 waitors, like actual waiters when there should have been 1 waiter and a helper. The waiters took so long to get the ticket to us and we found out that one of them was arguing with the other about taking customers away from him. What the hell was that all about. I was not impressed at all. It was very expensive for the food we ordered. But because my son and daughter in law got married and they decided to celebrate there I just paid the 300.00 for 8 adults and 2 kids. So I don't think I'll be back to Uncle Julios.
