About this episode
In this episode of Savor the Ozarks, Joy Robertson sits down with twin brothers Nelson and Edson Villela, owners of Señor Julian in Springfield. Named after their father, this family-run restaurant brings authentic northeastern Mexican cuisine to the Ozarks. The brothers share their journey from migrating to the U.S. as kids to opening their restaurant in 2022, featuring homemade tortillas, unique dishes like fajita baked potatoes, and traditional tacos especiales. Learn about their recent expansion, vibrant hand-carved decor, and their impressive selection of over 27 tequilas, including custom margaritas served in clay cups from Mexico. A celebration of family, flavor, and culture you won’t want to miss!
