Hey @NicT, my husband and I were the other couple in the restaurant today. You didn't just say a bad word, you yelled the F word in the middle of a restaurant with children at your table. I know that because you were yelling. Also, why are you concerned what the owner was discussing with us? I had asked him what part of Mexico he's from because my grandmother is from Mexico. He was not doing that to make you notice and he was not loud. Your table was already seated when we entered. It wasn't until you were finished that we heard you complain to anybody about your food. It wasn't loud in there, as it was only your table and ours. So if your food was so as you put it nasty, why did you eat it and then expect to not have to pay? Maybe you should've complained before eating the rest of it.Oh, and we did notice you went straight out to your car to type in your one star review, lol. Maybe you didn't like the food so much because you don't realize that Mexican food depends upon the region. And his cooking style was very much where he is from in Mexico.On the flipside, my husband and I really liked our food. We had wonderful service and a wonderful conversation, about the differences in cuisine and how much I liked the Birria. We discussed that I was from San Antonio. He was NOT contradicting you, he was answering my questions and just chatting. We discussed where they source their meat from and found out. It was a local place that my husband and I go to as well.My husband and I will definitely be back. We had a fabulous meal and enjoyed our food tremendously. I am sorry that you did not. But, that's not my problem. The only disappointing thing during our time there was listening to you, yell and curse. Oh , try their margaritas. The seasonal margarita is cucumber With a bit of spice to it. It was delightful!

The food is not that bad but when you are use to eating TexMex for so long, this is not the restaurant I would recommend. However, their food is good with great staff working there.

I love this place! Me and my wife go on Saturdays when we are in Mt. Juliet, for lunch and we love it. The food is always on point. Service is very good. Ambiance is good. They are closed on Sunday and Monday, just an FYI. Check it out!

We were out in Mt. Juliet and stopped in for lunch. Delicious! I had the special which was chicken enchiladas in a green mole sauce.

We have been here several times and the last visit was not as good. It started with a couple leaving as we came in telling us another restaurant was better. When we got inside we were told there would be a 10-15 minutes wait. There were several empty tables and I noticed they had even removed some tables. The dining room was very clean. It would have been nice to have salt shakers on the table. The overall feel of the staff was "we are tired". The servers workflow is very inefficient resulting in them walking around more than necessary and taking a long time to get back to everyone. I ran out of water and had to catch the server for refills. No one ever checked to see if we needed anything else or if our food was ok. The food was not as good as usual and the prices are substantially higher than other similar places. The portion size is ok but you won't have any thing left to take home. My husband got the birria nachos and they were served in a basket on paper. The cheese soaked through and made a gloppy mess. This would have been better on a regular plate. I got the quesabarria and it was really good but portion size is a little small for the price.

Our gang of four enjoyed our return to Memo's Mexican Kitchen (MMK) Restaurant. Service by the co-owners Guillermo Murillo (Memo) in the kitchen and wife Katie taking care of our table.Warm and friendly service. Food is authentic and fresh. And delightfully presented.Our gang enjoyed appetizers of made-to-order Guacamole Authentico for two and Street Corn. Don't miss the Guacamole.Entrees were Isabel's Carnitas (slow-cooked pulled pork) with and without Salsa Verde, Enmoladas (pulled chicken enchilada), and Huevos con Chorizo. Washed down with Mexican Coke and draught brewski of Dos Equis Dark. Modelo draught also offered. Would order every item again.My single gripe would like to see wider choice of authentic margaritas made with 100% Agave Tequila, Cointreau, and fresh lime juice.Kinda hidden in The Valley Center Strip Mall. Private parking lotCongrats to Memo and Katie running a successful restaurant since 2017.

Incredible good food and service. Best shrimp tacos ever. Amazing food presentation. Good ambiance. They have everything for a good time. The owner stopped at our table to check if we liked the food. The shrimp tacos were so good that I had them twice the same week. It is important to support local businesses. Support Memo's. It is really good food.

@Kristina L , Nik T didn't get to the restaurant until after our food was at our table. So NO, she did not eat her food, then complain. She took one bite of her fajitas, and spit it out. How you could see our plates from 3 tables down is beyond me. She didn't cuss until after the owner came out aggressively. Also, in several of the other reviews, you can read how either he or the waitress came out just as aggressive. The food was salty, the rice was pretty much minute rice. If you go to this restaurant, don't complain about your food. Unless you want to deal with a narcissist.

Memos has the BEST Mexican food in Mt Juliet and even middle tennessee!! It has authentic Mexican dishes that are delicious. The carnitas are some of the best I've ever had. I would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone looking for an amazing Mexican restaurant.
