San Jose Restaurant

If you’re new to the area, or just traveling, rest, assured that this restaurant offers a very authentic Mexican experience. We’re pretty picky when it comes to food and despite the fact, this location could use a few updates the quality of the food is amazing!

As a Mexican American, im picky when it comes to trying Mexican restaurants and this place ROCKS! I had the Spicy Jose Chori Pollo and I can’t even say how good it was! Everything was fresh and spicy to perfection. On my travels, I’ll def be stopping by here to eat again!

This was my worse visit out of very many. The waiter did like the fact that he could not understand me. Why I do not know but it was tough for me also. But he seemed angry. Also he told me my order had queso cheese on it when I got the Beef burrito not a drop to be found. Everytime with the usual waiter or one of the three I knew I always had been satisfied and tipped very well. This time I went with someone else and they said 3 times that guy is angry. Next the food was very different than the last 12 times I have been. The person I went with said the same thing it was way to spicy hot not normal for a Double Burrito Deluxe both Beef. It tasted very hot, almost no taste just spice,. I asked him for more Salsa to dilute the pepper or Chile on it he grumbled and did not come back. Another waiter came by we asked him he sent our waiter out to us and he finally filled my tea from empty to full again. And ce back with my salsa to dilute the hot peppers hopefully. Could not understand what happened with us or did something happen to him before we got there.? Idk so the service and food were horrible. In fact the worse experience eating Mexican food ever, this waiter was not helpful but my fried said that this guy maid the hot his own self he believed.
The Tea was delicious but I did not go for the damn tea.
Last visit to my favorite bragged upon Mexican restaurant. Was proud they were so good. But something has happened and it is not the same. # 1 the waiter was rude and incompetent and the food was bad. This time I drove and look forward to eating there. But I will never go to San Joses in Lexington again. No more bragging how good they are. Because it was below average. Food and service. Going to find new Max Restaurant. Not waisting my money again. To many others around. So this is not worth the time. Bad attitude waiter service and food was way off the norm. Obviously others feel the same we thought they were closed only 2 other people were there. Anyway don't be wasting time here. This guy rushed us and there was only 2 other people so he was not rushed.
I give up on them.
Waiter slack and lazy. But fast to stay away from us. He looked angry. Worst time ever in my life at a mex restaurant.

Great food. Good margarita. Friendly staff. Not a fan of the city or location, but I’d go back if I were around that area for sure.

Loved the food, waiter was awesome and had live music as well.

Wonderful staff, and the food was so delicious!

It was a little over priced but I ordered a chalupa and have traveled to many of states, mostly the mid and mid west and this is the first Mexican resturant I have been to that makes a chalupa like a tostada??? It was a flat fried corn tortilla not the traditional fried bread, also my server asked what meat I would like and I said chicken but it came out with beans, I asked him about the chicken and he kind of talked down to me saying it's not taco bell, do you want a side of chicken! I did say no thanks but everyting tasted the same with different sauces and we ordered 7 different items....It is my fault after reviewing the menu it states its a fried flat corn tortilla but who would expect that for a chalupa honestly? the chinmichanga was very small too, about the size of my palm! Would recommend El Jimador over here the portions are twice the size for the same price, and very friendly service! The servicer Lorenzo wasn't terrible but wasn't great either! I still left him $10 to prove a point......
