Jose's Mexican Cafe Cantina - Niu

Delicious food. Just the place was so warm so hot needs some fans use.

Horrible food...worst mex food ever. Tamale were frozen microwaved no taste like freeze section at store guac gross never again way o ver

Stay away from this place; I don’t do review all the time but damn, this is the worse place I’ve ever eaten. Food is microwaved, taste horrible, server has no sense of customer service. Sanitation is OMG I have to report this place.

I don 't know if this place is still owned by the Martinez family. I worked at La Paloma on Kapiolani Blvd. a l-o-o-n-g time ago which was owned by José and Laura, the parents. I think their son ran José 's. I lived on 18th Avenue and ate here a couple of times, but the food wasn 't the same as La Paloma.La Paloma had a tortilla machine in a side room of the kitchen. Laura 's Chile Verde, Chile Rojo, Enchiladas Rancheras and New Mexico Style Enchiladas were to die for! I 've never figured out her recipe for the Ranchera sauce but I make Chile Verde all the time. I should have paid more attention.

Food is excellent!! Reasonable pricing.Wish they served Dr Pepper.Parking: 0.75 per hour. 2 hr maximum.
