Reviews for San Jose Mexican Restaurant in Irmo, SC
This place is phenomenal and I wish I could rate it higher. The staff are always present and ready to help. The drinks will... never reach the bottom before a refill is offered. As soon as your order is placed you are presented with some very good warmchips and very fresh tasting salsa. Within about 5m of placing your order you start hearing the sizzle of a hot plate makingit's way to your table. As soon as the plates hit the table you see everyone's eyes become cartoonishly large seeing the massivefeast that has graced your table. The portions are massive in comparison to other local places. I usually head straight for thefajita nachos when I go here. I included a picture which just doesn't do it justice since I forgot to add something for scale.The nachos I get come with steak, beans, cheese, and I have the onions and peppers removed. For $12 you get what looks like a16oz steak cut into strips and laid across some of the most buttery tasting refried beans you will ever have. This pairs greatwith the slightly spicy queso cheese and warm chips. If you are hungry and I mean HUNGRY but want to keep your spending at aconservative level then this is the place you go to. There's just nothing else that compares. Read more
Food was ok , not anything to write home about. But to be fair, once you've had Mexican food out west . It will be hard to find... authentic Mexican food in South Carolina. Read more
We had some great Mexican food tonight in Ballentine. Everything was excellent and we even got some table side guacamole. This... is the best San Jose around. Don?t go anywhere else. Read more
We found this wonderful restaurant on the way home from Charleston to Virginia! Amazing food! Beautiful restaurant!
Great service. No wait. Polite and courteous wait staff. Very clean. Different flavors of Margaritas which was a plus. Food was... tasty and brought out on hot plates. Worth the drive from SE side of Columbia. 2 locations on SE side.....1 is closed due tostaff shortage (Rosewood Dr.) The other location on Forest Dr. Service and food were poor. Won't be going back. Will drive toBroad River Rd. No problem. Read more
The food and service were great as always! This is my favorite San Jose in the Columbia area. My kids love it as well! I... recommend that you ask about the daily specials. They have never disappointed me yet! Read more
I was always curious because I saw it on my way home from Wal-Mart. I went on a date with my husband. Honestly, the employee's... attitude was not good. I have to explain it so that foreign customers can understand it, but I was sad that I couldn't. Read more
Love their specials. Food is always great and comes out fast. The servers will try to get you in and out super quickly, if... that's what you want. Their queso is delicious and their menu is similar to most Mexican restaurants in the area. I recommendthe shrimp tacos if you're into that. The shrimp is actually, surprisingly fresh and not frozen. They've got TVs everywhere soyou can catch a game from most tables. The only bad thing about this location is getting in and out of the parking lot. Goodluck making a left turn in or out. Their prices have definitely gone up but I guess that's true with most places these days. Read more
