I want to like this place but they brought out the wrong dish for my friend and the Bistec a la Criolla that I ordered was nothing like the description. The meat was dry and a little tough, no sauce, just some sautéed onions in the side.

After having an unpleasant experience at another restaurant in the area we came to Judy’s and this was meant to be! The service was amazing, our server Fidel was friendly, knowledgeable about the menu and the drinks. Fidel gave us really good recommendations. We ordered one tamarind margarita and one lemon margarita with mezcal, they both were delicious and fresh! For the food, we ordered pupusas revueltas and pupusas with cheese and beans! Best pupusas I ever tried! I’m definitely coming back! The service at this place is really great!SECOND VISITAfter a great experience at Judy’s last night, I wanted to come back to explore more the many and I’m glad I did! Fidel’s customer service was exceptional as the first time. This time I tried Bistec a la criolla, Judy’s combination and for dessert I had their 3 leches cake and their flan. Both were divide, I can recommend this place enough!THIRD VISITAMAZING! The Lomo Saltado and Burrito was incredible delicious! The margaritas were tasty! Loving this restaurant! ❤️ the customer service is 100 points! 10 out of 10!

**EDIT**I came back a day after my review. Everything is excellent, and I’m here to say DO NOT SLEEP ON THE DESSERTS!!!!! The flan and tres leches are simply divine. Fidel provided exemplary service as always.I love Judy’s, I’ve been coming here for 4 years now. It’s been 2 years since I last came to eat at Judy Restaurant and it has gotten even better. Not only is the food excellent, the service is EXCELLENT. Our server, Fidel, did a phenomenal job taking care of us and honestly answering our questions regarding the menu.The drinks were strong and delicious, I strongly recommend a lime mezcal margarita. Pupusas were also amazing, thick with the perfect amount of dough, and don’t get me started on the curtido!!!! I didn’t get it this time, but my usual go-to is the bistec al caballo. The beans are to die for, and the eggs are always perfect.Parking is hell but it’s always awful anywhere worth your while.I’ve always had a great time here, and I always look forward to coming back. I always love the bachata classics playing in the background, makes me feel safe ?

If you want great food for a great price come here. You'll leave with a belly full of delicious food. On my visit I got to try the Judy's Combination that came with a chicken tamal, taco de res, and a beef enchilada. Everything was delicious, but I think if I had to order them I'd say the enchilada was my favorite and the taco the res was my second favorite. The tamal was good, but I'd rather switch it out for another enchilada.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian Burrito
Food: Queso- this was meh but it's not bad! Combination plate- the tamale was amazing! Great texture and great flavor. Pupusas: tried the bean and the revuelta. I preferred the revueltas for sure! Also was a great price for the amount of food (3 for 12 and I had leftovers)Service: super friendly and quick! Ambiance: very chill, great for a quick bite

No what…food was FIRE. The Sopa de Mariscos con Crema y Huevo was delish and was a very large size. They also had an amazing jalepeño salsa with chips. Great latin music in the background…will definitely be back next time I’m in that area!

Really enjoyed coming here. Randomly came across this place and was interested in checking it out. The food is absolutely delicious especially the steak dishes. The steak is so juicy, tender and delicious. The plantano is sweet and perfectly crisped in the edges. The service was phenomenal and the staff were very attentive and proactive. Highly recommend.Vegetarian options: They offer a few vegetarian optionsParking: Very hard to find street parking
Best pupusas in the city. Hands down, and I’ve had a a lot in my life.
