Uncle Julio's - Brentwood

We found our previous lunch experience to be MUCH better than our last dinner experience. Dinner was WAY too loud. We waited in the bar for 30 mins at a bar table and the waitress actually IGNORED us twice when we tried to hail her down for a drink. We ordered at the bar and I asked 2 people to help bring our drinks to the table, and neither of the 2 I asked, which included the manager, did anything to help. THe food is fine. The tortillas are better at Lunch time, when the lil mexican lady is there to make them and the guacamole.

I always take my out-of-town guests to Uncle Julio’s, and they love it. Friday night, very busy, of course, and our waitress was adorable and upbeat, but service a little slow. Perhaps she was overburdened with tables?

My mom suggested Uncle Julio’s as where she would like to go for her birthday dinner. She and my dad had been before and raves about it, but this was my first time. WOW — SO GREAT! Everything is made from scratch every day. The strawberry margarita... OH MY GOODNESS. The margaritas at your local Mexican restaurant will never compare. The whole time I couldn’t wait to bring my husband back to try! Great great food, great service, great experience! A must go!

We were particularly please at the service. This was a visiting lunch and we did not feel rushed. Of course, we reflected this good service in her tip.

Our server had way too many tables. We had to ask multiple times for items such as refills, silverware and our check. We had to speak with the manager because our appetizer got lost in the kitchen. This is very abnormal for this location. I’ve been dining at this location since it opened. I hope it was just one bad night. I saved the servers name and will definitely request a different server in the future.
