Jose's Mexican Food

Excellent food! Service could not have been better as we had two or three staff check in on us! Ambiance is outdoor patio style indoors. The natural slate stone tiles and wicker canopies at each booth are a nice texture. We really love to eat here and sometimes bring out-of-towners who want great authentic Mexican cuisine. This meal was more than worth it! The value is there at $70 for the two of us and we brought home what we could not finish for another meal at home.

Absolutely love Jose's. It's been a family favorite for years. Carnitas is a must have! Order at the counter, grab a number and they will bring you the food. Salsa bar and chips available. Casual style dining atmosphere.

Review #1001While this was my first time eating at this location, I have been a fan of the company since the early 90s, especially the Redlands restaurant. Coming from the Midwest where Mexican food was mediocre at best (it may have improved by now), the food really impressed me. Shredded beef tacos, burritos, salsa bar, and endless tortilla chips? Yes, please! Over the years, I marked some changes in the food and recipes. Nevertheless, Jose's is a good spot for lunch or dinner with the family. This location on Pigeon Pass and Ironwood has a similar layout to the Redlands store, but it's easily 3x larger in terms of where diners can sit, including a covered patio. My crunchy tacos were very good, not as crunchy as I remembered, but still, well executed. I especially liked the Mexican rice and the beans. I didn't go to town on the chips and salsa, but left feeling like it was a good value for the quantity and quality.

This place is nice with its daily deals, and roomy dining space. The complimentary chips and salsa bar is a delightful touch, and the variety of beverages is impressive. The service is both speedy and welcoming, making for an enjoyable experience.

I don't understand how people like the food here!? And skip the gross margarita! They don't even make it from scratch lol the alcohol is mixed into this big plastic container lol like what the hell???????? That's stupid!!! Tastes like crap!!!!!!

Have never been to a Jose's before & let me just say this will NOT be the last time either! I love that they have unlimited chips, salsa as well as the aguas frescas. Let me also add in that you can't beat that they have deals Monday-Sunday! The customer service was great we ordered & sat down they brought our food to our table & the food was absolutely amazing! The restaurant was very clean & organized. Will definitely be coming back!

There is something rustic & nostalgic about Jose's Mexican food at the same time you will also find a uniqueness in the flavors created here. Full disclosure: I do food photography for Jose's Mexican Food & I've visited all of them! You may think my review is biased. Understand that even though I have an estimated 200 customers around the country, I have only taken the time to write reviews for a select few on Yelp...few move me to praise.In my line of work as a food photographer it is natural that I would have a hands on experience & that I try most, if not all, menu items. I can honestly say that each of Jose's locations has the highest level of cleanliness. In fact, my family eats here & we are not from the Riverside area.Food wise, you start with the unlimited chips & salsa bar. They offer a variety of delicious salas! The tacos are the best & you have many meat options. The fajitas are topped with a generous dollop of their chipotle flavored cream. They grill their carne asada over an open flame & to give it a personal flare, they brush the meat with some type of tomato-based salsa that elevates the flavor. The pinto beans are simply perfection. The greatest of Jose's secrets is that all of their Margaritas are super delicious and are made with 100% Tequila! You won't find any agave wine here!I've also come to know their staff & everyone is welcoming. While speaking to shift management, I've come to learn that some of the employees, actually a lot of their employees, have been with Jose's for decades! They all said the same thing again & again... the ownership is keen on integrity. They treat staff like family & provide the community an authentic home-cooked meal.

So they raised there prices so much that it's just not worth the price anymore. Instead of small increment increases they went up at least a few dollars. Well I guess I need to find another restaurant. Good luck to Jose's with the new prices.The bowl below cost $13,48 and was not even full of product.

A good, local place in Moreno Valley for a fast-casual meal. You order from a counter and there are some coolers nearby where you can pick from a decent selection of beers (don't recall if I saw any wines). A server then brings your food to the table. You have to get your own utensils, condiments, chips and salsa, etc... This isn't my favorite way to dine, but we wanted brunch on a Saturday in MoVal and every diner was absolutely packed. We had heard that Jose's does offer breakfast/brunch, so we ended up here. The lunch/dinner offerings are pretty standard Mexican fare. Brunch offerings included an impressive-looking French toast that swayed one of my friends. It was as good as at any diner. My breakfast scrambler with bacon, eggs and cheese was similarly good. Everyone's food was fine. Nothing special but definitely not bad. If there was no place else available for a casual meal, I'd come back to Jose's. I do prefer wait service and being able to get a freshly made Margarita or Bloody Mary with my meal, and I did think that the restaurant seemed to be not particularly clean. Our table felt sticky, some tables were sitting un-bussed for long periods of time and the salsa/condiment area was a bit of a disaster. But you could definitely do worse for a quick, inexpensive meal.

The overall value of the food was good. I had the asada and carnitas tacos, definitely the carnitas tasted better of the two. Ordering is done at the front counter and they bring the food out to you. There is a self-served salsa bar which is very convenient with multiple options to choose from and the chips are self-served as well. The fountain drinks, ice teas, and coffee is also self-served. The restroom was a little dirty, but maybe they just didn't clean that day. The staff did take the time to check on tables, which was appreciated.
