Don Jose 3609 Boulevard, Colonial Heights, VA 23834

"We stopped at Don Jose during our road trip, drawn in by positive reviews and a tempting 50% off the second dish with an online coupon. We opted for the Cazuelon Especial – a mix of grilled chicken, steak, and shrimp with sides. The flavors were bold but a bit too salty for my taste, though my wife enjoyed it. Portions were generous. I could finished my dish and opted to take it home (and didn’t end up eating it at home) Complimentary salad and tortilla chips with salsa were a nice touch. However, when the bill arrived, I requested the online discount. They insisted on a drink order for eligibility, but upon agreeing, they offered a 10% discount instead, claiming it was equivalent. While I'm not one to argue, it left me slightly disappointed. Overall, a mixed experience with flavorful dishes but some hiccups in the discount process."

"Great neighborhood place owned and operated by a local family, at least one of whom will help serve you. Frequently the owner is the guy refreshing drinks and helping clear away serving dishes. Excellent food! Have eaten here about once a week for the last 16 years."

"My husband and I loved Don Jose! We ordered take out from this restaurant. The portion sizes were amazing and the prices were extremely reasonable. Once we arrived to pick up our order, we were immediately greeted with very kind staff and our order was ready promptly."

"Fresh food served with a cozy well decorated eating area. Employees are helpful, service is fast, and our family of 6 left stuffed without an enormous bill. Happy to come back. We even occasionally do take-out. Its just so fast."

"We love Don Jose!! We've been going for almost 20 years and have never been disappointed. The service is excellent and the food delish."
