| - I was pretty skeptical walking into Me & Julio's on a Friday night. All the way out in Fitchburg, this Tex-Mex place doesn't have the best online reviews or a great grandiose presence from the outside. Nevertheless, this place was hopping! The menu is filled with a mixture of Tex (burgers and the like AND Mex (tacos, enchiladas, etc.). Started off with the chips/guac/queso combination, and, while it wasn't amazing (and was pretty expensive at $10), it eased me and my company into the fun atmosphere. My Julio Burger (beef patty topped with an additional chorizo patty, grilled onions and pepper jack) tasted a little more charred than I would have liked, but the Buddy Bowl (rice, chicken, shrimp, grilled vegetables and cheese) was on-point. Friday night had a DJ who played anything from 60's jams to today's stadium country hits. The staff was kind (although it's clear that very few of them LOVE their job), but they were very helpful! If you've got a budget ($20-25/person) and want a chill Friday night alternative to Downtown, give this place a shot.
