Don Juan Mexican Restaurant - Waterford Township (MI)

5 /5 Will Bonam: Incredible Date Night! ​My girlfriend and I came into San Jose Mexican Bar & Grill for dinner and were blown away. We are locals in Waterford and decided to dine in, and I’m glad we did. ​First off, the drinks are serious business here. We ordered a Piña Colada and a Jumbo House Margarita (I highly recommend adding the Coconut flavor like we did—it adds a great tropical twist). They were huge, refreshing, and definitely didnt skimp on the alcohol. ​For food, we ordered two main dishes that I have to rave about: ​Birria Jalisco: If you are looking for authentic flavor, this is it. The meat was slow-cooked to perfection—super tender and juicy. It came with the consommé for dipping which was rich, spicy, and deeply savory. ​Ribeye Chicharron: This was a standout. It’s ribeye steak chunks but cooked with that chicharron-style crispiness on the outside while staying tender on the inside. The seasoning was spot on. ​The bill was very reasonable for the portion sizes and quality of the cuts. We left stuffed and will definitely be coming back!

4 /5 Jennifer Dudek: Had chicken nachos and callo de Pollo soup. It was so good!! Generous portions!

5 /5 Kate McFarland: Queso is always a must. I always get the Arroz con Pollo add cheese sauce or Arroz con Camarones add cheese sauce. It is my go-to spot for this specific dish because the service is fast and the dish is consistent. I have been a loyal customer frequenting multiple times a year for at least 5 years.

4 /5 Erick Price: Food is slightly better than most Mexican restaurants in Detroit. I highly recommend it! FYI, if they serve fried fish it’s usually in the authentic side of the Mexican restaurant industry. Waitresses were very nice and hospitable will definitely come again.
