Great Mexican traditional plates served here. Pork carnitas are just the best. Very nice restaurant with great service.

Ivan took great care of us. All the food was excellent. My husband said the carnitas (pork tips) were the best he ever had. I agree. Also the sopapillas are super yummy.

This restaurant has been unbelievably accommodating every time I've been. From parties of 4 to 24 or more, they have you covered. Today we had 20something people, including 5 kids under the age of 5, and they were not only able to put together tables so all of us could sit together, but they got everyone's food out at the same time. And the food was just as delicious as ever. The cochinita pibil I ordered was amazing.If I could give this place more than five stars, I would in a heartbeat.

The service was terrible I asked to see if they would do anything for my sisters birthday and said yes they would sing, they didn't. The server had too many people to attend to and the other servers refused to help they would just knod and not serve us water or tea. I had my plate it was good the meat was cooked medium the way I asked good sauces paid $80.00 for 3 people thinking i would get good to great service I would have been better off anywhere else. So dissapointing 3rd time there to really good ones and then this. Last time there. 😥

Best Mexican weekend buffet breakfast. A little pricey but, worth it. Expect a crowd.

Had breakfast at this location on a Saturday. I tried the breakfast buffet. I had previously had the same buffet at the Julios located by loop 365. I enjoyed my breakfast but not as much as the one by the Loop. Even though the entrees are basically the same. I found the Sazon...at the location by the loop alot more tasty. Service was great...no complaints.

Julio's never seems to disappoint us..we were in town to visit family and stop for breakfast. The breakfast was very good and the staff very nice and prompt when we requested an item or drink. We love this place and can't wait to go back..

All time favorite! Great mole, tacos, enchiladas and probably everything else.
Marco Gonzalez
Horrible customer service. Food is bland. They forget your food and seem not to care much about unsatisfied customers. Look at the comments. They only respond to good reviews and totally ignore complaints. Same when you go eat there.
Ricky Rodriguez
Highly recommend! Waiter was very friendly and helpful. Food was phenomenal and fresh. My friends and I were celebrating my return from deployment. It was just what I needed to be welcomed home.

This is worth the drive!!! Julio's Mexican Food (formerly, Julio's Café Corona - but Google dictates having "Mexican Food" in your name) - has had a Face Lift, Tummy Tuck & a few other things & it LOOKS GOOD but TASTES even BETTER! Everything (food/flavour, service, value) is right on!!! Can't wait to go back!

Four of us ate here. We each had a different dish. Everyone cleaned there plate with no complaints on the presentation or taste of the food. The service was excellent from both the kitchen and the bar. Food and drink for four grown men was inexpensive and, when all was done, we were all quite satisfied with Julio's. Highly recommend this place to locals and tourists alike. Excellent Mexican restaurant and great family atmosphere and value. We will come back again. Enjoyed the music.

Great food, friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere. We got a sampler, 2 mexican plates, mexican style chicken and everything was amazing
Abby Lawson
Food was amazing!! Christian our server was so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!!
Michael Nunez
Excellent food and the service is exceptional! A must visit for authentic Mexican food. The atmosphere is very inviting and I can't say enough about the wonderful staff. Give them a try at their Gateway East location. You won't be disappointed!

I went for a meeting. The food was great. Chile con queso was the best with slices of onion and green chile and that amazing stringy cheese that is divine. Service was excellent.
Chelsea Torres
My husband and I were extremely satisfied with our food and our mango margarita that we shared (wishing we had ordered two). It was definitely one of the best margaritas we’d ever had. We went for dinner and I ordered a chimichanga. It was WAY bigger than what I’d imagine for what we paid and the best chimichanga I’ve ever eaten. My husband ordered chicken mole poblano and he thought it was fantastic. Our waiter Hugo was also great and very accommodating! We are only here in El Paso for one more night and are debating trying something new or going back again for another amazing meal before we head home. We’ll see what happens but we wish we had a Julio’s in Colorado that’s for sure!

The chicken fajitas were rather dry! The baked potato was amazing though. Great place for a birthday lunch. They treat birthday person to a great dessert with a lit candle!💕

Mario the server was good. Had he had appropriate support he couldn’t have managed the floor better. Quality of the food has declined. Sad to see such a great place go down hill. Mario thanks for doing your best.
Nancy K
The Buffet was good Tex Mex style but good our waiter Jorge was very attentive al the time. Great atmosphere.
Jeffrey Rowlands
Very tasty Chile Rellenos. Christian the barkeep makes a fine margarita. I'll return when I am town.
Maria Medina
Service is amazing. Margaritas on point! If Ivan is on shift ask for him, is totally worth it, he is an amazing server!
Bruno Ponce
Went for the Good Friday Lenten lunch and it was wonderful. Good service and great food.

Buffet was cold..tortillas almost warm..
Aaron Vasquez
This place is amazing. I came back into town for the holidays and had the opportunity to check this restaurant out. The food served here is actually quite authentic. I don't usually see cochinita pibil offered in any Mexican restaurants here since it's a dish from the most southern part of Mexico. This place actually had it and it truly did remind me of my mother's version. The same flavors of achoite and citrus were noticeably prevalent and made the dish what it is.I would like to come back and try some of their other dishes, but just on this one visit alone I would recommend this place easily.
Jacklyn Cossio
Best service in town! They made me feel so special on my birthday!
Howard West
Very unique presentation. The food is one of a kind, yet respectful to traditional Mexican cuisine. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.
Jeffery Wilson
The food was awesome. I will come back when I'm in town. Keep up the food wook.

One of the top local restaurants for good reason. Very well peepated food with generous portions. Prices were very reasonable given the great quality. A must visit for those looking for a great food experience.

Food was good. Waiter provided great customer service.
Stefanie Montes
I love Julio's great food and super friendly staff. The chicken tortilla soup is delicious. The Corona Mexican plate is really good, the flautas any way you have them are just amazing!! Not to mention the sopapias, warm soft center with a crispy outside covered in cinnamon sugar! Yummy!!
Jose Flores
Nice food nice people
Victor Labrado
Salmon and tortilla soup were fantastic! Angel, our waiter, gave us exceptional service. Been back in El Paso for a year, it's a shame it took me this long to go. Will definitely be back soon.
Ronster
If you're in the neighborhood, you need to stop here. We went in on a Sunday morning, they offer a buffet for brunch. It is very nice, they serve you as you go through the line. Location was super clean, Staff was super friendly, good was delicious and the prices were awesome. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area again.

Pricey for El Paso and I've had much better Mexican food in El Paso.
