Me and my boyfriend come here often, it's very underrated because there food is absolutely delicious it taste way better then any restaurants in Sebastopol road. Juanita's makes everything fresh and authentic she also gives out good portion size so it's definitely worth the money. I highly recommend anyone come here who hasn't tired this place

My fiancé and I tried this place for the first time. Started with FRESH squeezed orange juice mimosas and an iced tea. I can be picku about iced tea, this one was a hibiscus I think...sooo good! The salsas were killer!!! I had the crispy birria tacos (mea, cilantro, onion and cheese) sooo good! He had the chorizo breakfast plate* no photo but smelt delicious! Overall great experience! Excited to find a tasty place down the street from our house.

Service is always Great and food always delicious. My husband always wants to come here for the 7 mares. Small little hometown restaurant feel.

The food is sooo good, prices are definitely reasonable. $2 tacos is still undefeated everyday.

Good food and excellent service. Nothing fantastic, but good and huge portions. We had a gigantic French toast plate and a combination plate with tamale and a Chili rellano. The rellenos are not listed elsewhere on menu, but are available to order.

I've been here a few times over the years. I usually come for breakfast or lunch. They make a fantastic breakfast burrito. Today I stopped in for lunch and tried their carne en su jugo. Which is a soup that features steak, bacon and a beef / tomato broth, along with a little garlic, and cilantro flavors. This soup was fantastic! They serve it with lime and dried chiles that you can add to your liking. I did add some of the lime and chile and it kicked the heat up just a bit which I loved. Overall, my soup was fantastic, the service was great and I really enjoyed my lunch. I highly recommend you give them a try... and if you are in the mood for soup, the carne en su jugo is a must!

This is my local go to for post party, hungover Mexican food. I love this place. I'm not sure if it warrants a Michelin star but the salsa bar and more than decent chips save me every time. Love the breakfast omelette s, the enchiladas , the al pastor, and the chile relleno. I'm not an horchata guy but folks rave. They have Mexican cokes and jarrittos...the beans are phenomenal as is the rice. The service is very good and very friendly staff . Patient with drunks. The interior is old but clean...and kinda diner like. We even dine al fresco in the parking lot. Very festive . Love this place

Amazing tacos and price cannot be beaten. Free chips if you order more than 2 tacos, and their chips are fresh, warm, and crispy! Love their amazing salsa bar as well. The carne asada, carnitas, and al pastor were all flavorful and I can tell everything was freshly made to order. Would love to come back here again when I visit the area. Service was great too, no complaints! Parking can be a challenge since there's not many spots in their parking lot. There is a mall across the street though.

Juanita's Yelp ratings don't lie and everyone seems to know it. We ordered online through grubhub and our order was ready when we arrive at the scheduled time. The placed was packed with happy customers. A friendly staff member showed me where my order was waiting for me. The cocktail de Camarones was one of the best I've ever had. It was super fresh tasting with lots of shrimp and avocado. The order also came with chips and two types of homemade salsa, fresh limes and Tabasco packets. DELICIOUS! Juanita's is definitely high on our list for Latin cuisine.

I ordered the breakfast burrito to go. I asked for a couple of special requests. Spicy Diablo, and pico de gallo added inside. Wow!!!!!! This is the best breakfast burrito that I have ever had!! Pack jammed with flavor, eggs cooked perfectly, ham, amazing, everything about this burrito was exceptional. They grilled the outside of the flour tortilla which means a lot to me:) I also was able to take home some of their salsas on the side from their salsa bar. They have an extensive menu.. Something for everyone. Thank you, Juanita's!
