At time of paying, was told no substitutes. Had the burrito and it was very dry. The rice, beans and meat didn’t have flavor and hard to eat because it was so dry. Won’t be going back.

The waitress dissuaded me from trying any of the draft ones and instead recommended one, Victoria, in a bottle. It was a new one for me, and I approve of it. It is from the province of Oaxaca. When I was there, the place was relatively empty, despite being a Saturday. Background music played. The food portion was ample and the price reasonable. Service was relatively quick. The place looked clean and walls had artifacts and hue that emphasized a Mexican ambience.

Food was ok, but it was definitely overpriced for what I got. Would not go back. read more Food was ok, but it was definitely overpriced for what I got. Would not go back.

Was in need of some beans and rice (and cheese quesadilla) for my kid and a vegetarian burrito for myself. Julio’s delivered in every way. Ask for a fajita veggies on your burrito! Vegetarian options: They can make many items vegetarian easily. Just asked. Parking: Lot right next to restaurant Kid-friendliness: Booths are always great for my little kids. Wheelchair accessibility: Ground level with indoor and outdoor eating spaces access

The waitress cleaned two booths and offered us a choice, so we settled in. Unfortunately, there seemed to be a significant delay between ordering, receiving our meals, and getting the check, even considering how busy things became. We waited quite a while for our water to be refilled, and my husband didn’t receive his beans with the burrito. I couldn’t help but notice other tables getting their food and checks promptly, while one family sat with empty water glasses and tortilla chips, patiently waiting for their meal. Despite the service hiccups, we will definitely return. The fresh ingredients and delicious food are well worth it. I understand that busy nights can be challenging for a restaurant, so we are willing to give it another shot.

It resembles the gourmet farm-to-table restaurants of Mexico City, offering a completely different experience from the typical Americanized Mexican food. One of my personal favorites is the rice and black beans, which are made simply yet bursting with natural flavors. The sauces and marinades enhance the ingredients rather than overpower them. The staff is incredibly kind and friendly. Having worked and traveled in Mexico and lived in Southern California, I've had my fair share of different styles of Mexican cuisine, which can vary greatly by region. Bothell is truly fortunate to have a restaurant of Julio's caliber.

I had to wait 30 minutes for a table, but the staff worked incredibly hard to accommodate everyone. Since it was my birthday, they went out of their way to make it special for me. The margaritas were fantastic, and the food is truly the best Mexican cuisine I've had anywhere. I’ve lived in the South and have tried Mexican food in Mexico and six other states, but nothing compares to Julio's. I highly recommend this place!

Best of all, they are willing to make their enchiladas suizas with corn tortillas for those of us with wheat allergies or Celiac. We've been customers for years and have tried at least half the menu, and even remember some dishes no longer on the menu. Bring the horchata back, Sylvia and Julio! <3
