"Open since 2008, Canadian Jane Bauer’s Café Juanita serves a mixed crowd of expats on the second floor of a Tangolunda building, right in front of the Dreams hotel. On the colorful terrace overlooking the palm trees, you can indulge in fusiony menus with Oaxacan shrimp and grits and huevos rancheros for brunch, and later in the day a menu of hefty fresh salads and (in high season from November to April) dinner options ranging from steak with huitlacoche to Thai curries. Friday taco night is a favorite among regulars. [$-$$]" - Tirza Bonifazi, Verónica Jiménez Salcedo
