We went here on Monday noon, the restaurant wasn’t busy, we had a excellent dining experience! The food was so delicious, and served super fast. Also we were impressed by our server, he patiently helped us with the menus, refilled everything quickly as needed.

This is a great place that can accommodate very large groups. Great food, awesome drinks, attentive servers. Tortillas are made o site. We didn’t have to wait long for anything. They earned their stars from us and generous tip. Great ambience. We will make sure we stop by at our next visit.

Wasn’t able to move my dining room resi to outdoor, I had to cancel it completely and then be next on list for outside which took over 30 min, but food was delicious, very pricey- almost 100 for 1 app, 2 entrees, 1 dessert, 1 margarita & lemonade. Inside dining was very loud and very cold temp wise, but I would eat there again.

We went to uncle Julio’s for the first time this past Thursday. I’m from Florida and my friends said we should try this Restaurant. But let tell you the Food is Terrible! No seasoning whatsoever, our server was beyond horrible. The place was not busy at all!!! for us to receive such poor service, also I don’t agree with the automatic 18% gratuity charge for a party of 6. If such rule is placed on your restaurant the least you could do is provide good food and decent service. Please stay away from this Restaurant it’s not worth your money or the trip.

I ordered the premium quesadillas and chicken Tacos. Both the items were okay. Having said that, I felt both these items could have been more flavorful.

If you’re into crowded Mexican restaurants that serve decent food and are located near bodies of water, then I’d say that Uncle Julio’s is your best bet.

We love Uncle Julio’s! Tonight we had the pleasure of being waited on by David in the bar seating area. He was very attentive, checking in with us often. He and the manager worked with the kitchen to ensure that our parties allergies were compatible with our dishes.

Relatively disappointed with my most recent meal. I was told wait time was 45 minutes it turned out to be 1 hour and 15 minutes. Hostess was unapologetic and disagreeable despite this. Salsa was watery however queso was quite good. Food came out quick however the price point is high for the quantity and quality. Table service was below par.
