I saw the skirt steak fajitas in a review and needed to try it. The bartender recommended the carne asada or the skirt steak fajitas.The skirt steak fajitas were the best fajitas I’ve ever had.The restaurant boasts everything made from scratch; the chips and salsa are just amazing.I really enjoyed my meal and for context I sat at the bar and the bartenders were very attentive.What an amazing dining experience I am surprised it wasn’t busier.

For starters, this isn’t authentic Mexican food. My husband ordered the Guadalajara and I had the Baja fried fish tacos. The bacon wrapped shrimp were DANGEROUSLY undercooked, so much so we did not feel safe eating it for fear of food poisoning. The chicken was terribly salty making it inedible. The fried fish was seriously lacking in flavor. Rest assured this was our first and last time visiting this restaurant. Which saddens me to say, we truly enjoy Mexican food. The decor is nice, great music but the subpar quality of food makes me never want to come back and I will not be recommending. Truly disappointing!

My first time tasting Uncle Julio’s was when my daughter brought leftovers home from Orlando to Lehigh Acres just after everything reopened after the Covid pandemic. The leftovers were so delicious, I just knew I needed to visit and eat a fresh dinner. Covid caused such a delay in the opening of the Naples location and my anticipation was high. Finally when they opened in the fall of 2022, I have gathered all of my loved ones together and visit the Naples Uncle Julio’s as often as I can.My daughter got married in October 2023 at Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park. It was a beautiful small intimate family ceremony and she chose to have a reception afterwards at Uncle Julio’s. We couldn’t have had a better experience, making it the perfect ending to a perfect moment. She had our traditional chocolate piñata, something we enjoy at all of our family gatherings there, and let all of the kids have a whack at it. It was just one more special moment to add to our family memories of great times!Yesterday, I was released from NCH North Naples and had to have dinner at my favorite Uncle Julio’s. When the manager, Maddox, stopped by the table to see how our dinner was, I let him know it couldn’t be any better because I just got out of the hospital and all I wanted was dinner at my favorite restaurant. Well, I was wrong, because it got better. Maddox gifted me with a chocolate piñata and blew my day all the way up! Thank you to the Manager, Maddox and Waiter, Gaston for making my breaking free from the hospital dinner such a happy ending to a difficult experience for me. It helped turn my frown all the way upside down. Naples Uncle Julio’s ROCKS!Vegetarian options: My favorite, and only dinner I ever order is the Grilled Vegetable Fajitas, and it’s delicious! ?
Food was good, service was good. We were here on a busy night and the table next to us complained. We’ve been to a separate location in TX and this location didn’t disappoint. The food was yummy and service was good. Will be going back. We had table side guacamole, and I had the shrimp fajitas. Everything we ordered was great!

We went to this restaurant yesterday. 5 stars on it, the flavor. ?? ?? excellent. They just need music. It was to laud people laughing and it’s good. But music is necessary. Price? Yes. Price. But worth it. Recommend

Hands down worse margarita I ever had 15 bucks top shelf then asked for some grand mariner was charged 13 more dollars still tasted like straight lime juice..ridiculous... server was
Shrinkflation has arrived at Uncle Julios. I will point out we love it here, our meals are absolutely delicious and the ambiance is beautiful. Our server was attentive, helpful and courtial. However the have shrunk their meals in half yet charging the same prices. When we asked about the portions we were told that they redesigned their presentation, however, the portions are the same. NOT TRUE!!! The portions are half the size they used to be!!! We are rethinking where we dine, especially for special occasions with the whole family, as this is the go to for the pinata dessert. May just come for dessert.

Came in for a reservation 15 minutes early and hostess told us that they only had one server on the patio and couldn’t seat us until closer to our reservation time.There were 25 open seats on the patio. She said she would come outside and get us on the bench when our table was ready. She never came. We left. Poor management!!

Best virgin strawberry margarita we have ever had! But we both didn’t really like the food but the service was spectacular! Loved the black beans, guacamole, rice and salsa but everything else was pretty mediocre.
Avoid this place unless you want to wait 45 minutes for a drink and even longer for your food, assuming someone actually comes by to take your order. Twice, I needed to get up to find the server, which didn’t help things along. We complained to the floor manager, who seemed unconcerned and responded only with “we’re busy". It’s not a new operation; you’d think they could handle a full house, especially with the patio closed. At the end of the meal, she proudly stated that she had made an effort to “push” our order ahead of others, despite there being patrons around us who had arrived later but received their food earlier. She did apologize, but we had no luck in getting our drinks or some part of the meal comped. We definitely didn’t order dessert or a second drink; we didn’t want to wait another hour. On top of it all, when we asked for limes for our drinks and food, they said they had run out! That’s a first for me at a Mexican restaurant, especially early in the evening. In short, service at this place is a disaster…achingly slow and incomplete orders. Definitely won’t be back. Too bad, as the food is quite good.

Best Mexican food that I’ve had in Florida. Wish they would open a location in Tampa. Food is made from scratch and amazing. Restaurant is very clean and has a chill vibe. Highly recommend if you’re in the Naples area.
