The menu featured both traditional and modern dishes. I opted for the grilled chicken with mango salsa, and it was excellent. They also offered brown rice, which was a nice, healthier option. Another highlight at Don Jose’s is their guacamole, which is made fresh at your table. It’s a wonderful choice if you're dining in the evening, although I’m not sure how late they serve. However, I did have some concerns regarding pricing. We had to pay an additional $1.75 for a second basket of chips and $2.00 more for a small container of sour cream. The guacamole itself was $8.00. I considered ordering fajitas, but then I found out that extra tortillas are $1.75 for just three, and the dish only comes with three to begin with. It felt like they were trimming costs in a way that was a bit surprising. It might be a sign of the times, or perhaps just a strategy to cut corners. Overall, while the food and service were great, the pricing structure left something to be desired, making for a less comfortable dining experience. In summary, the meal was enjoyable, and the staff was attentive, but the pricing practices are worth noting.

An incredible spot for traditional American-Mexican cuisine!
