About

Uncle Julio's is a Tex-Mex restaurant known for its mesquite-grilled dishes served in a hacienda-style atmosphere. While it is popular for lunch and dinner and offers an extensive menu with alcoholic drinks and outdoor seating, vegan diners should be wary as many supposedly vegan items contain lard or butter. The venue caters mainly to omnivores with limited genuinely vegan options.
