Not the real enchilada

by dahender at Citysearch

Take this review with a grain of salt. I am originally from Texas and I cant claim knowing true authentic Mexican food Joe's is not.

After reading how Joe illegal crossed the border and built a respectable business for himself (back menu) I was ready to eat. The food was prepared in an appetizing fashion, but was drenched in chili and cheese. I highly recommend the enchiladas and soft tacos.

The vinegar-based sauce was quite interesting and fit nicely with the tacos and any salad (shake well). However the salsa had the consistency of a thick ketchup and lacked chopped peppers, tomatoes and chilies. It is essential for proper dipping consistency.

The chips were not crispy or salt encrusted .

Joe's does provide a wide array of food satisfying any crowd. I am definitely going back for margaritas (specials on Tues.&Fr.) and the cashier is kind of cute.

• Pros: Service, Cheese, Prices
• Cons: , Chips, Music

Great Margaritas but....

The margaritas were very good but I would suggest not looking around too much and just concentrate on the food and drinks. Certainley a laid back atmosphere but a good cleaning and a paint job would help.

• Pros: inexpensive, great margaritas
• Cons: , smoky

Excellent Guacamole

Acapulco's guacamole is the most mouthwatering, and can't be passed up. With the delicious garlic and ripe avacados, this is sure one to please. Enjoy!!!

• Pros: quality food
• Cons: crowded, bad parking
