Food was amazing ! I got the taco salad with birria beef and it was a 10/10, absolutely phenomenal service, food and ambiance! The owners even greeted themselves as well, very sweet people!As for the margarita, it was just perfect, not too sweet and just the right amount of tequila. Gracias, San Jose on Apopka Vineland Rd.Next time I'm in town, I'll be right back to this location

There are quite a few San Jose's in the area, but this one is definitely better than the others. It serves an extensive menu typical of American Mexican restaurants, so there isn't really much in the way of authentic Mexican food, but it will seem familiar. There isn't much in the way of acoustic treatment, so it can be quite noisy, even when not at capacity.Note that the top shelf maragarita is made with a lot of orange juice, which is rather odd, so if you want a more traditional margarita maybe go with the house margarita.

We tried this new location for lunch and enjoyed it all. As soon as we sat down, we were served chips and salsa. The chips were warm and the salsa was great. My party of three also ordered some guacamole and it was brought with more chips and we ate almost all of them. I had a horchata and my wife had a limeaid. Both were great but a bit expensive. But they were pretty large. My wife didn't finish hers and they gave her a to-go cup.Two of us shared a chicken and steak fajita and it was great! Will get that again. One of us also ordered a pick-two lunch of a taco and a burrito. It was great, and a large size. After all the chips, we had to take some leftovers and that was our dinner. The service was great and someone who appeared to be the manager or owner came by to make sure we enjoyed everything. The location is not very large, as it shares the space of one former restaurant with a BBQ place with a new wall down the middle, but it doesn't feel cramped and there is some outdoor seating. We will be back. (Look for the hidden Mickey above the hostess stand.)

I have eaten at this location twice and the food is excellent. They have other locations which are equally good but I was happy to find one closer. The decor is beautiful with murals on the walls. They have booths and tables, an extensive menu and full bar. The service is exceptional with friendly staff that kindly accommodated my special requests. If you want authentic Mexican food at a reasonable price I highly suggest you check them out.

Because I love Sonnys and it is attached, I've never given this place a chance.2/3s of our group was craving Mexican last night, so we decided to go out, I suggested trying them after reading the reviews. Glad we did. Everyone loved their food. Even my mom who is super picky about everything, loved everything she had. The Malibu shrimp entree had sooooo much shrimp, it was spilling out everywhere! They did not skimp at all! And the Burrito was massive! Im sure we will be back, often.

Stopped by to try the "new" Mexican! We were seated pretty quickly. Very nice interior and seemed like a lot of staff were on the floor. Bibi was our server and throughout the meal he was great. Courteous and attentive. The menu was decent with all the usual options. We opted for chorizo queso, chimichanga and the SJ volcan! Queso had a generous amount of sausage and tasted awesome. Chimichanga was decent and played different, the winner was the volcan though! It is huge and full of meat. Suggested for sharing and they weren't kidding. The bar menu looked interesting but lacked prices. We shall return

Pretty solid Mexican option. I came here for dinner while in the area on business. Service at the bar was good and my chicken fajitas were delicious. I would definitely come here again. Although it is a small chain, it's much, much better than a lot of the national chain options in this area.

Not impressed with the food, service or ambiance. The music was too loud! Our server was rude and did not check on how we liked our food and didn't take the time to provide any information.
