Julioberto’s

Came in at 7am. I ordered and went into the bathroom too wash my hands. This place was horrible. Dinning room looked dirty and the bathroom stunk like a horrible sour smell and look disgusting. I washed my hands but there was no soap, paper towels and the electric hand dryer wasn’t working. It looked like blood splatter on the floor but I THINK it was red paint drippings. There wasn’t even toilet paper in the stall. This bathroom was stinkier and dirtier than any I have been to in Mexico. The dining room was freezing cold. It felt like there was no heat and it was 44 degrees! Just waiting now forum my food… Huevos Ranchero which I now have. The eggs should be Sunnyside up with soft yolk. It was fried almost crisp and the yolk had been broken and practically missing. It also had shredded cheddar cheese on it. The eggs were on top of a huge pile of pico de gallo. I never saw huevos ranchero with cheese and pico… It is usually on top of corn tortillas covered with ranchero salsa. Beans were straight up from a can.
One word to some Julioberto’s up… Ewww! Run away… Run far away!

Anyone wasting their time complaining about this place should buzz off. Live right down the street and they always handle my weird/​slightly picky requests without a question or annoyance. (Ex: huevos rancheros plate but in a tortilla) the list goes on, and gets even more weird. They rock!
Bringing it down to three stars. Although they are cool with my strange requests. They refused to make my huevos ranchero burrito with fried eggs vs. scrambled. Offered to pay more for it, promised I was okay with any mess. And they still said no.
Moral of the story: I miss airebertos on 7^th and bell.

Throughout the years I have been to a ton of the *berto restaurants, and for the most part they more or less the same. Sure one place has a little bit better rice, or one has a better horchata, or whatever. For the most part though they are all pretty similar. This one, however, has been consistently better then the others I’ve been to.
If you are looking for a good burrito, some tasty tacos, or my personal favorites the super nachos and the carne asada fries, this is definitely a place you shouldn’t over look. I can’t speak any of the seafood dishes here (I just can’t muster up the courage to try fish at a place like this) but pretty much every thing I’ve tried has been great. Like I said the carne asada fries and the super nachos are both mine and my wife’s favorites here. The rolled tacos bring up a really close second though. All the combos and platters are all pretty tasty too.
The next time you are in the mood for something a little bit greasy and unhealthy, this is a place you should check out.

This used to be a Filiberto’s for many years. About 6 months ago I noticed the food tasted different, not as good. I thought there must be a new chef and was hoping maybe he was just a fill-​in for awhile. I kept coming back and being disappointed. I know you must think what an idiot for punishment I was but it had been so great for so many years I couldn’t believe that the place would really become permanently bad.
I always go through the drive-​thru and I finally got so irritated with my food when I got it home I looked on the bag for the phone number. I wanted to call and ask why they changed their recipes. Then I saw the bag said «Julioberto’s» not Filiberto’s. The menu board outside never changed (neither did the phone number actually) and I just never noticed the different sign (the two look amazing alike).
I know the urban myth is that all the «berto» restaurants (Filiberto’s, Julioberto’s, Eriberto’s, Humberto’s) are run by the same family and the menus are identical. Maybe that’s true but that would be where it ends. The menu items may be the same but the recipes are different.
As for the difference I don’t think the quality of the ingredients is as good and the portions are much smaller. I always get the chili rellenos platter and a cheese quesadilla. The chili rellenos fried batter is too thick and and the poblano peppers are much smaller than they were. There isn’t as much cheese put inside the pepper and that cheese doesn’t taste as good. There is too much sauce and the meal overall seems to lack in seasoning. They are skimpy with the sour cream and lettuce, which doesn’t taste fresh. The pico de gallo is tasteless and also doesn’t seem fresh. The refried beans that come along with the meal don’t have much taste and are runny. The cheese quesadilla is way smaller than it was, about half the size, and it also seems, and may be, microwaved. There isn’t as much cheese and it isn’t as tasty as before.
I came yet back again with a friend. Her request and she was buying so why not. She wanted to see if the food really tasted that different. She said her Super Nachos weren’t the same from when the place was a Filiberto’s but she actually liked them better. I asked her why and she said that it had more sauce and a tastier sauce. I myself don’t care for nachos with any sauce and wasn’t aware it should have sauce. She said they also were more generous with the sour cream and pico de gallo than before.
Oh well to each his own. This Julioberto’s isn’t that bad, it just is when compared to when it was a Filiberto’s with an identical menu.
