DONDE JULIO RESTAURANT

Great food, feels like being at home

I love this place. Been eating here for years. Food is excellent and prices are fair. Best of all, family owned and run. Service is excellent.

I've rated them a 4 star for now. Only because the waitress was really, really nice and professional. When was very attentive and knowledgable. The food was amazing!!! Yet, I will have to say... that we have to go back another time and see what their service is like when they aren't being inspected. I only say this because they let us know that the inspectors were there and asked if we were in a rush. This led me to feel as though they may have just been on their best behavior. So, I'll do another review when I go back by really like their food and I really like the waitress I made sure my husband slipped her more than 20%. It's imperative that we tip for great service because not only do we work hard and deserve great service, we also do our best to provide great service in our professional lives.

I like this place. It's nice and authentic. The issue is that no one speaks English here. The menu isn't even in English. They try to accommodate that, but it would be nice to have one person there that could speak English. That doesn't bother me as much as how long they take. If you stop in expect to spend more time then usual. There are only two women working here, one stays in the kitchen and the other greets guest and works in the kitchen. I could see that she would get confused sometimes and forget what she started to do. All that aside though the food is good and so are the people. You just have to be very patient when you visit here when they get busy.

Best rice and beans ever the plantains are always sweet and delicious.
