This place is perfect for hanging out and trying your luck with one of their giant burritos. I've never been with a person who could finish a whole one in one sitting. If you live nearby, they're really good for takeout

Pros: Fresh and cheap burritos

There is no such thing as customer service in this place- from the waitstaff to the management. When dining out I at least expect is a casual hello, my drink within 5 minutes, a correct entree order within a reasonable amount of time and a check when I'm done. This is entirely too much to ask for from a server at Juans and forget about speaking to management about rude service and problems with your bill because their attitudes are just as ugly. You can get better service and QUALITY food at several other mexican joints throughout the city.

Pros: Cheap food

Cons: Service, Management, Poor Quality

I wouldn't call Juan's Mexican but it really isn't Tex-Mex... All I know is there is always room for Juan's and you are so going to need it. Quality is good, service is excellent, taste is awesome, and quantities are huge. Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Especially good for the "Day After" with a huge hangover or even a first date dinner.

this place is ok. it was not outstanding, but it also wasn't awful. i had the shrimp tacos. the shrimp was a little too fishy. the beans/rice are put into the taco - which is interesting - but makes for quite a mess. none of the salsas had any bite which was very disappointing. it's not at all "mexican" food. but it was ok for what it was and it was a pretty good value.

Pros: food is ok (as long as you're not looking for mexican food)

Cons: nothing is spicy.

They re-opened on Magazine in October and were one of the few places to eat that soon after Katrina and it couldn't have been better! I've had just about everything on the menu now and it's all good, good, good! My fav are the mission style burritos, but be sure to peel the foil as you eat, if you take it off completely you'll need a fork and a napkin! Go there, eat well and take home the leftovers! It's cheap and tasty, perfect combo!

This is a review of the Magazine St. Juan's. I can't speak for any of the new locations. Best flying burrito ever. Like I said in the subject. Food is really good. Music is really good. Service is kind of bad, but that's the point (it was better when you had to get your own food, and the cooks all smoked over the food they were preparing). This is possibly the coolest place (for food to put inside of you) in the city.

Editor's Review

Inexpensive boffo burritos made to order in punk den.  See the full editorial review.
