"Dear Hubby and I have dined here a number of times since I posted my first review of them in 2016. We enjoy it, and it's a family friendly place, as well. Having the bakery onsite is a bonus. On a recent visit, the food quality wasn't quite as good as previous times. DH had the meatloaf, which was tasty, but on the dry side. Lots of gravy helped cover that over, but he didn't finish it, so I had it for lunch today and the texture was definitely not moist. Still had good flavor, though. I went for the fish tacos. I actually would have preferred the fish as a fish chips affair, as the well prepared white fish got lost in the tacos. Might even be better on a bun fish sandwich. I'll try to remember for another time. We enjoy their colorful, whimsical vintage vibe for the décor. The old fashioned belt driven fans overhead reminds one of bygone days. They'd added some bunny decorating touches, and colorful eggs in the spirit of Spring and Easter. Our server was friendly and charming, but not always readily available when we needed him. They weren't that crowded on a Wednesday evening, so that could have been smoother. The chocolate raspberry cake was excellent, and a very good value in these days of dessert prices soaring way past $10. It was just $5.95, and it really hit the mark as far as presentation and flavor profile. Dear Hubby opted for pie. They only had apple, but it was cinnamon y with a perfect flaky crust. Great finish to the meal. Tip from a friend if you order the California Chicken Salad, definitely have the dressing on the side, because it gets watered down among the greens and doesn't deliver a taste profile that's very interesting."

"Went for my birthday and got seated right away. We ordered drinks and guacamole and I ordered beef fajitas. They were good but needed lime juice or would have been to tasteless. The waiter was awesome and the man who brings drinks too. I liked the staff. But my friend ordered a tostada and it was covered in red enchilada sauce. She literally had to run to the bathroom due to the sauce. Tostadas should not use red sauce. It wasn't hot sauce but red enchilada sauce. Odd. I was pleased with my food and the cute little dessert they brought me for my birthday. Delicious flan. I was sad when I wanted to tip 15% and the electronic device had only 18% and two higher choices. Why don't they have 15% as a choice? Seems presumptuous and wring to assume I want to pay more when the bill was already over $50 for two plates and a small guacamole and two sodas? I pushed the custom tip button and paid 7$. I would have paid more had they not tried to force a customer to pay 18%. It's wrong. Reminded me if the Dodgers now wanting us to pay for a bag of peanuts using our credit cards on a handheld machine and also expecting 18% and up tips. Not me. I won't go to any more dodger games. Their hot dogs taste awful and getting tix and parking pass online was awful. Never could find the parking pass. Oh well I digress. Good food, great staff, but the tip forced down my throat not so good. And my poor friend was sick from the sauce."

"We lived in Montrose 30 years ago and Joselitos was our go-to family restaurant. Our plans for the weekend took us to the area and I thought, why not? I am not exaggerating, the food was every bit as we remembered it! The albondigas soup is the best I 've had outside of Mexico. It has spice in the broth and the generous meatball has me wanting more! If you are looking for Sonoran-style Mexican food, you won 't find it better than Joselitos. The chips are toasty, the salsa is fresh, the rice and beans that come with most meals are delicious and flavorful. My traditional margarita was perfect, with the lime flavor coming through and not too sweet. I look forward to going back and not waiting 30 years!"

"The food was delicious, as always. We opted to sit indoors because the weather was cold and drizzly, but they kept the door open, which didn’t help with the chill. Our food took a long time to arrive, and I’m not sure if it was due to a staffing issue or a large party we couldn't see. We enjoyed our sangria and appetizer while we waited, but the entrees took over 45 minutes to come out. We will definitely return, as it might have just been an off night."

"Recently booked Kebab Daddy for one of our events in Tarzana. I gotta say we're so glad we found Kebab Daddy. When we placed the order on their website, we were not very sure whether we did it right, but immediately after the order we received a call from John. He was able to explain things to us and has hooked us on our custom order. He even went and asked if we needed them to place the food in the feces or should deliver them closer to the time to make sure that the food is still hot when the guests arrive, etc. Trust me, we worked with many restaurants before we are catering, but no one had asked us these questions.
