What People Say
Most Liked
Families and solo diners rave about the speedy service and the impressive coffee offerings at Jose's. The standout dishes include their chilaquiles, a favorite among regulars, which can be elevated by adding perfectly cooked fajita strips. Customers also love the hearty breakfast plates, especially the huevos rancheros—simple yet bursting with flavor. The portions are generous for the price, making it a fantastic spot for a fulfilling meal any time of day.

Most Disliked
While Jose's Cafecito Restaurant receives high praise overall, some diners mention minor issues. A few guests have noted that butter for pancakes sometimes goes missing, taking away from the breakfast experience. Additionally, during peak times, waits can get longer, especially on busy Sundays. Though service remains prompt, the high volume can impact the atmosphere. Some might find the casual vibe a little too bustling for their liking, particularly during brunch when families fill every table.
Lastly, while the menu is broad, diners seeking innovative, high-end dishes might feel underwhelmed. Jose's focuses on comfort and tradition rather than avant-garde cuisine, which suits many but may not appeal to everyone.

Great atmosphere and food is what you will always find here! It's a Weslaco hidden gem! I always come here for their brunch options as my favorite plate is their chilaquiles. They are truly amazing! They are delicious and taste even better if you add some of their fajita that takes the plate to the next level! Their fajitas are cooked to perfection EVERY SINGLE TIME! It's truly amazing how they've perfected it since you never get over burned pieces but always cooked just right. Always recommend it to people wanting to get a great start to their day or as a lunch option.

Came here because Keno’s Cafe was closing, on Sunday 12-29-2024 at 2:25pm. My daughter came with friends from work here at Weslaco. It was my youngest daughter birthday and she had been wanting to go to Keno’s as regulars. We live 35 miles away. My oldest daughter said I know a restaurant that you’ll enjoy, and we did. The food is great. The enchiladas are better than Las Vegas Cafe in Harlingen and the tacos on the Mexican plate are too. The pictures will explain. On Sunday’s there is plenty of parking

Cute restaurant was greeted by staff and welcomed us in, food came out fast and fresh, portions were great for the price. Coffee was fresh. The only missing was the butter on my pancakes but everything else was delicious. We are trying different restaurants in Weslaco and this was a great breakfast spot no wait time either.

Food was great! Took a couple minutes to come out but it was made fresh and worth the small wait. Waitress was super friendly and attentive. Prices are unbelievably low. Place has open windows and well lit. Not too cold or hot. Multi-stall restrooms are some distance away and semi clean.

Visited 7/24 @10:30am Great food, great prices and great service. Had the Huevos Ranchero and Migas a la mexicana style. Everything was great. A nice way to end our trip to the valley. We will definitely be back for seconds.
