We discovered Jose Joe's by accident when reading the food reviews on Google. Very casual, funky, Mexican themed restaurant with a menu that offers a little bit of something for everyone, even if you're not into Mexican food. From burgers, to salads, to a wide variety of Mexican eats. Hands down, Jose Joe's serves up one of THE best tasting burgers in the Rochester area. For $6.99 you can get a delicious grilled 1/3 pound burger. And the battered french fries are crispy and delicious! The service is fast and friendly, and the manager strives for an excellent experience and is quick to correct any problems with a meal. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. Definitely better quality and taste than the local burger chain restaurants. We usually stop at Jose Joe's once a week, sometimes more. Overall, really outstanding food for the money. My one and only complaint (and the reason for only 4 stars) is that they tend to overcook the burgers if you tell them cook it "medium". They'll correct a problem if you make them aware of it, but why not get it right the first time? Otherwise, an outstanding place for some good eats. This place is worth the drive, and we'll definitely keep...
Read moreI would like to say that the restaurant overall was clean, and the staff were very friendly. The majority of why this is getting such a low rating was because the food was absolutely abominable. I decided to try their $2 burritos as well as their $2 cheeseburger just to see the basics of what they had. The beans taste like they are straight from a can without any additional seasoning. My chicken and beef burritos were put in tortillas that were much too large, leaving a massive wad of bread in the middle of them. I top that, the meat sauce was slightly sweet and the chicken tasted like it was being masked over by the cheese and completely otherwise lacking in anything Tex-Mex seasoned. The cheeseburger was dry and the cheese was mostly flavorless. Everything was dominated by the enormous amount of ketchup and mustard place on the dry old bun. If I had gotten this same kind of burger at a major chain, I would have expected my money back. All in all, I would greatly advise the owner of this restaurant to rework their recipes. That said, I do want to again emphasize the place was clean the staff was great. If that's all that matters to you, then this...
Read moreTried the 3 Amigos burrito. While it was ample in size, it was also cold inside and tasteless. My wfe and son both had the Regular Joe burger. They report dry and skimpy. The real downside here however, is the dining accomodations. It wasn't extremely busy, many tables were available, ALL were filthy. Sauce and trash left behind. We found the "cleanest" one available and I fetched some napkins and tried to wipe up the unknown substance left behind by the last patron seated there. We were seated just shy of a half hour and at NO TIME did we observe ANY employee attempt to clean off even one table. Keep in mind, there were 6 employees behind the counter and if just 1 of them came out with a sponge and wiped down some tables, I wouldn't be writing this! In short, if the management cares so little about the upkeep of the dining area, whats going on in the kitchen? Won't go again, felt...
