Man oh man, oh man! I was thoroughly impressed by the service and food! After watching Once Upon a Time in Mexico so many times,... it made me want to try the dish Johnny Depp always had in the movie. It's one of those dishes you don't see too often in a MXrestaurant but I was glad I saw it here. The menu lists it as the "Cochinita Pibil" and it was beyond my expectations. It camewith rice, a little cabbage salad with picked red onions, and a choice of beans. I paired my food with a Negra Modelo which onlybrought out more of the flavors. I highly recommend it. I just won't shoot the cook like in the movie... lol. Read more

Service was not great. There was hardly anyone in there and it took forever to get a server to come to our table. There were... about half a dozen servers just standing around and it looked like the manager was the one taking orders. The hostess wasuncaring and came off as rude. I get being busy at work doing other things but if you?re going to interact with the customers inthe store, at least pretend to care. My enchiladas were burnt on one end and there was hardly any verde sauce on them not tomention it was WAY too salty. The carne asada looked closer to a stew than actual carne asada. When we got there and sat down,the booth we were in had bits of rice still in it. Honestly not worth the price of $50 for the three of us that were there. Willnot be recommending. Read more

First of all let me tell ya how neat clean and cozy the atmosphere is! Definitely will stabilize your mood, and the dishes are... well prepared (shout out to the cook)! The Super Nachos are one of my personal favorites! I work just across the street at theShell on the corner and Juanita?s is my main go to during lunch. Oh and the Margaritas?.Shhhhhhhh Read more

Great service! Worth reviewing and sharing. We had the shrimp cocktail - it had a hint of orange juice in it, delish. The... fajita jalapeños and the Jalisco (barbacoa) tacos. We will be back to try the drinks - great selection. Read more

Great place with great people who serve here. We?ve been going here for the past few years. We enjoy how fast and efficient they... are here. Food is always hot and perfect every time we come. They even remember what we order, which shows the servers don?tchange here often. My favorite is their salsa and chips with just the right kick of flavor. Read more

Came to grab a bite to eat after work and opted to try out this place because it was on the way home and got the California... burrito (I think that?s what it?s called) and I was not pleased with my food at all. The burrito had some kind of liquid cheeseor something and I?m so not a fan. The beans in it were good, but it had lettuce (which tasted a little weird) and beef andchicken and that liquid cheese that I mentioned. I paid $12.95 for the burrito and with taxes included, my check wound up being$14.03. The only reason for me keeping the burrito is because the servers were so nice, I was hungry and was in a rush to gohome. But never will I go to this place again, nor would I recommend. Some pros to add were the chips were fresh and the salsawas good and like I mentioned, the service was pretty quick and all of the gentlemen were super friendly and attentive. Do notthink I?ll be going back. Read more
