happy food. happy people. you'll be happy there too. family friendly or romantic- it's both! Known thru-out LA as one of the best spots for Mexican- i was impressed. Had the Crispy Quesadilla- whoo! what a treat. I also loved my margarita. The bill was very reasonable too.

I love the carne asada at Joselitos. it's NY steak- not cheap meat like other mexican joints. Nothing is better than a great steak and a grande Margarita on the rocks.

I found Joselito's by looking in different restaurant review websites. Joselito's won several "BEST MEXICAN RESTAURANT" awards in Los Angeles. I made the 25 minute drive from my house to see if what I read was for real or a disappointment. Joselito's has got to be without a doubt the best and most authentic Mexican restaurant north of the border and better then most that are south of the border. The "Burrito Lito" has got to be the biggest and best burrito I have ever eaten. I have yet been able to finish it. Their enchiladas are out of this world. There is something about the enchilada sauce that is so special. I always ask for extra sauce. The lunch buffet has a nice selection of traditional Mexican fare and is very reasonably priced. The creme de la creme is the elaborate Sunday Brunch. Make sure you arrive hungry when you get there. On one occation, my dining companion ordered a Bacon Cheeseburger. I laughed and asked why he ordered a hamburger at a Mexican restaurant. He told me to wait and see. I tasted his Bacon Cheeseburger. It has got to be the best burger I have ever eaten. It doesn't matter what the chef prepares. It comes out absolutely delicious. I cannot complete this review without mentioning something about the service at Joselito's. The service has got to be the only thing at Joselito's that is better then the food. Everyone is greeted with a warm and friendly smile. After one or two visits you become part of the Joselito Family. The hostess remembers the table I like. The servers know I drink iced tea for lunch and an 1800 margarita with extra salt with dinner. The chips and salsa bowls never go empty. Jose and his wife Tamara welcome and treat their guests like family. I do have two complaints about Joselito's: (1) I eat way too much and (2) I wish they were closer to my house. So, if you ever have the urge for true authentic Mexican food (or a great hamburger) go to Joselito's. It is definately worth the drive.
