The right ingredients have been selected to make memorable dining experiences in Frisco.

Uncle Julio’s is pleased to announce it has chosen the site for its newest location in Frisco, where area residents and visitors will soon be treated to the beloved North Texas brand’s signature Mexican cuisine. The restaurant is expected to open in the second half of 2022, bringing to Frisco its signature “from scratch” menu, attentive service, and polished dining atmosphere.                                                            

“We offer upscale Tex Mex dining with made-from-scratch food, hand-crafted drinks, and a unique experience our guests can’t get anywhere else,” John Johnson, vice president of operations with Uncle Julio’s and a resident of Frisco. “We have wanted to open in Frisco for years, and now with the perfect location, we have all the ingredients we need to create something truly special here.”

Uncle Julio’s is well-known for using fresh ingredients and authentic recipes to create its signature taste throughout its expansive menu. Guests of Uncle Julio’s can enjoy favorites like made-to-order guacamole, margaritas muddled with fresh fruit, mesquite-grilled meats, and the Chocolate Piñata -- a dessert experience found only at Uncle Julio’s. Cracking open a Chocolate Piñata, a handmade chocolate globe filled to the brim with homemade churros and berries, complemented with homemade whipped cream and sauces – is perfect for any kind of gathering (and your Instagram feed).

From family celebrations to casual lunches, date nights and more, the atmosphere of Uncle Julio’s – a comfortable and modern take on classic Mexican décor – is welcoming for a variety of occasions. Private group dining, catering, Happy Hour, take-out and delivery are also offered. 

Uncle Julio’s will be located near the intersection of Highway 121 and Preston Road, near Stonebriar Centre. The site will allow for a restaurant that is more than 8,500 square feet, and a large, 2,500-square-foot patio that will overlook a pond.  The open area will be the perfect setting for outdoor celebrations, live music, game-watching parties and more.

Headquartered in the Dallas, Texas area, the first Uncle Julio’s opened in 1986 and continues to expand to define the polished casual Mexican industry.
