Julio's Cafe Corona

The food itself was well proportioned and taste was exquisite. The flavors just burst in your mouth. The service was friendly and attentive. The ambiance was relaxing and romantic. Music was just right for a lovely dinner.

Extremely underwhelmed. While their happy hour seemed like a "good deal" it was unavailable (yes, the perplexity I also felt) at the time I arrived. Bar was closed so table was required. Food was not even mediocre. Again, extremely underwhelming. Def headed to a taco truck after that visit. I usually don't give bad reviews but this one was due particularly if you are going to charge as much as you are! Oh and it took literally 20 min to get water & 40 min to get my food but everyone around me had their dishes etc within 20 min of ordering AFTER me.

I sat at the bar around 6pm Friday night. It wasn't busy yet. 2 bartenders were very helpful, immediately got water, as well as complimentary chips and salsa, which was tasty. I ordered a house margarita rocks. There was WAY too much salt on the rim and the drink wasn't quite full, but it was delicious, just small. I ordered the arracherra beef fajitas. It was $30 but came with sour cream, guacamole, a baked potato?? And a tomato soup! Weird combinations but whatever, I'll give it a shot. Guys, these $30 fajitas were regular old plain ass simple beef fajitas. You can buy these same beef fajitas anywhere for $15. Don't be fooled. Unless you really want a baked potato with your fajitas, find something else on the menu, this isn't it. They had many other offerings that looked good and were reasonably priced. I was expecting nice juicy think slices of beef with my fajitas, but not today. It's ok. Overall decent experience. Fajitas were good enough, just not worth $30 to me. Margarita was 8.50There was a wait for dinner service when I left.

I have always enjoyed Julios Cafe Corona. It had been many years before my last visit, and the food did not disappoint.I visited on a Saturday a bit passed noon. We waited about 30 minutes to get a table and we were sited next to a party of 24. Only one waiter was taking care of all of us so the service was not the fastest. It took about an hour to get our food and two hours all together to leave the restaurant. I ordered the Cochinita Pibil and I was impressed how good it was. I'm looking forward to come back just to have this dish.Julios Cafe Corona has Beautiful decor, calm ambiance and ample parking lot.

Hugo was a wonderful waiter. He was very attentive. The food was amazing. I had bean tostadas. They were very tasty. My daughter had chicken tacos & a baked potato. We also had the quest fundido. It was good as well. They also have a breakfast buffet on the weekends but we did not utilize this. There is plenty of room at this restaurant. There was even a baby shower going on in one of the rooms.I would definitely recommend this place to eat even

I'm here in El Paso for a few days and I was craving Mexican. As we was traveling back and forth on the highway, I noticed Julio's. I went in first to inquire about having a liquor license (don't judge).Refugio or Santiago (I forgot his name) was our waiter. He brought us over some chips and salsa which was good. I ordered a margarita and crossed my fingers. The margarita was ok but better with the shot of tequila I ordered. I ordered the steak chimichanga, queso on the side. I didn't want any onions, guacamole or sour cream. He said the chimichanga had a few onions and so did the queso. Ok that's fine, (yuck) my coworker ordered dish with chicken with tomato paste. Our food came and he put that queso you see in the picture in front of me, before I knew it I said ewww what is that!! No Mexican Restaurant I've been to in Texas made queso with giant bell peppers looking like snails. Now don't get me wrong. I respect the dishes because it's El Paso. I gave my coworker the cheesy snails and I took his rice because my dish did not come with rice. My chimichanga was a five and my coworkers dish was a 5. I don't think it's fair for me to rate the restaurant any lower because this is Mexico country and they should know to make Mexican food. Let me add, you don't get chips and salsa to go with your leftovers.I rate Julio's a 5 anyways because of the good service.

Wonderful lunch with great environment. The mole enchiladas are good, sweet and rich. Reminds me of grandma's recipe.

What a great restaurant. It's large and airy ....and busy but we had no problem being seated (just the two of us for a late lunch), service was fast and the food is delicioso. Don't get a margarita (they are really good too, but it's a big glass). Our server was friendly and professional, and from what we could see, the others were also. It was a little loud and I can only imagine the energy level at regular lunch or dinner hours. We will definitely be back on our next trip here.

**This is a 3.5 star rating.**We were visiting El Paso for the first time, and the baseball game was rained out. So, instead of ballpark food, we came here on the suggestion of a family member who is also a local.Overall -- good. The house salsa, anywhere I patronize, is the most telling part. This salsa was served cold (thank goodness) and fresh. There was a hint of heat and onion, along with the tomato, and not much else. Perhaps that's the style out here (I'm from East Texas), but a few cilantro leaves would've put this stuff over the top. I ordered a combination plate, which is par for the course for me on a first visit. I really enjoyed everything. It is definitely New Mexico-style, and all was served hot and fresh. (Some spicy salsa would've made it better.)The queso here is also different than what we were used to, but in a great way. It has bite ... and REAL cheese. Wonderful.Atmosphere here is clean. Service on our visit was timely and courteous. We would definitely be regulars here if we didn't live 750 miles away.

You must try the wrapped fish!! Fish grilled in foil paper Super Healthy comes w onions, tomatoes and green peppers over white rice....my mouth waters just thinking about fish. Highly recommend
