Don Juan mexican Restaurant

Food and service are always good. Best Migas I've had so far in all of Austin

Pozole was delicious. Service was great due to lack of customers. Atmosphere needs help. Location is subpar. Maybe some cosmetic work and brighter advertisement might help. Great food tho. Ate pozole one day and fish and shrimp soup the next

Food was great and service was exceptional. There is a lady onsite that makes the corn tortillas. They were better than the flour ones which they tell you are store bought. Decor was fun. Wish I lived closer to watch some soccer here!

Food was fantastic! Even though there were a few bugs in the place, the food was too good. One swing at the bugs, though, and they stopped coming by. Maybe they've been trained. Loved the green salsa. The chips (homemade like everything else) were light and crispy, and they weren't overly salted. The barbacoa wasn't greasy, was tender, and tasted great. The beans weren't too heavy either. Everything in my order was great, which was the two-meat taco option. The flour tortilla loses its softness quick if not covered in its container. Always wondered why those containers were there. The wait staff was friendly and helpful. Service was quick. However, I was the only table. The place is pretty old (like all else in this area), but looks well maintained. Would definitely revisit when I stay nearby again.

Breakfast was a delight! The freshly made corn tortillas were fantastic, and the salsa had just the right kick. The food and service were top-notch, all at a great and reasonable price. Definitely looking forward to coming back for more!

Just average for breakfast tacos, but really cheap, which is great. They have a three for $5.25 special, if all three tacos are the same. I did three chorizo and egg on flour. Tortillas were fine. Not too thick and warmed up. Filling was fine. Green salsa has a medium kick. Probably three stars for the food, but a bump for the price.

This place use to have good food! Went thru drive thru, lady was rude as hell. 26$ for a plate and outside menu said 17.99$. Confused on this but I'll never eat here again!

Visiting town looking for a good mex/texmex place to eat came to this establishment that exceeded our expectations. It's a little rusty, but food and service is delicious and of great and reasonable price. Can't wait to go back whenever in town *loved the custom-made furniture

Food is good. Bought some caldo de res, shit smacked. Cashiers/servers were very amicable, and funny as well. The restaurant is definitely giving mexican, love to see my people doing well and working hard. Love the ambiance. Good music too!

bad survive did a online order they took my money never gabe me my food and try talking to them but the health department was at the location I see why they taking people money and I keep trying to get my money back I get the run around manger comes tomorrow tomorrow. bad place not good service

It was nice and clean but i dont see me going again. Its not texas mex but its also not authentic Mexican food

Menu is definitely on the bargain side. Beef was a little fatty but flavorful. Rice is great. The simple salads of iceberg lettuce, tomato and avocado slices are always fresh. The fried chili relleno with ground beef is awesome -- so good that it's kinda keeping me from exploring the rest of the menu. They always place a squeeze bottle of salsa doña (jalapeño salsa) on the table. It's not very hot but is really delicious. You seat yourself and pay at the cash register on the way out.

It's delicious food simple very nice and they have parking Do yourself a favor go here at least one time and you'll keep going back

I had plans to eat at another place (a food truck) prior to going to the airport to catch my departing flight out of Austin but they were not there as they were catering an event. I searched Yelp to find something close by and quick and found Don Juan. Don Juan has its own parking lot and upon entry we were quickly seated. Don Juan has its own custom furniture made for the dining room that happen to be crafted in Arandas, Jalisco (a town that I have relatives in) which I found interesting. Complimentary salsa and warm chips were served. I ordered the Don Juan Burrito lunch special and was able to choose the protein. I chose al pastor. It wasn't long before food arrived at the table. The portions were very generous, a large, cheese-smothered burrito accompanied by refried beans and rice. I ate my entire meal but was not completely satisfied as the pork in my burrito was somewhat charred. I didn't say anything to wait staff because my time was limited and I needed to get food in my stomach. Overall, if I am in Austin again, I would probably choose a different restaurant to eat at if I am looking for Mexican food and trust me, there are dozens to choose from.

sooooo yummy. my new favorite lunch spot on a weekday. they are fast and never too crowded. really flavorful comfort food. we've had a few team lunches here and it's good for groups. Cute Mexican decor

Just average for breakfast tacos, but really cheap, which is great. They have a three for $5.25 special, if all three tacos are the same. I did three chorizo and egg on flour. Tortillas were fine. Not too thick and warmed up. Filling was fine. Green salsa has a medium kick. Probably three stars for the food, but a bump for the price.

Portion size is excellent, food isn't a long wait, and the food is amazing. Plus an amazing atmosphere. Calm luh spot

Always good. The breakfast burrito is perfect and the drive thru is convenient. Thank you

Such great food with amazing service. Everything was absolutely delicious and we all felt so taken care of. The food was authentic and wonderful, we all left full & happy! Lity was our server and made the experience that much more enjoyable!

The food here is amazing. The staff is so nice also. Lettee and Bridgette are so welcoming and give great recommendations. Super friendly place and just a comfy vibe. We love coming here.

The food and hospitality were great. Our server was nice and answered any questions we had. The food was prepared quickly and it was good. Like other reviewers say, don't judge it by what it looks like on the outside. The inside is nice and their food is great!

We've been returning to Don Juan's for several years. At first we stopped there because it was conveniently close to were we could meet for lunch. Now, it's a destination we choose. We were pleased as always by the food quality, quantity, staff, and price, but overwhelmingly, and why I'm reviewing, is because of the delightful investment in all new dining room furniture and a new hand crafted bar. The restaurateur had all the tables, chairs, booths, bar, and even the baby chairs hand crafted with embroidery and hand painted traditional scenes. A must visit/see.

This place is amazing! Its like Denny's meets great Mexican food! I just bought a house nearby and was hungry and stopped by to give it a shot and man was I totally not disappointed. The pork chop and egg meal was great! The pancakes were just pancakes nothing fancy but Mexican food and pancakes is a killer combo. I came back a few days later and go the Mexican flag enchiladas .. totally awesome. You could tell they were made fresh to order and the sauces were killer. They also have a large selection of Aquas Frescas and Mexican Sodas as well as great Michelada's You want to eat here, be it breakfast or lunch they wont disappoint.

I eat Tex mex every day. This shit MESSED my stomach up for like the entire next day. Don't eat here.

Had the Wednesday special of Enchiladas De Mole and we're pretty good! You are first served with some warm chips and salsa that is also very tasty (the salsa that is). A small but very tasteful atmosphere. Full bar available, but it was lunch time and still had half a day to go! I did get a look at their alcohol menu and it is very Mexican like with large micheladas I would love to try!

Stopped in for lunch with colleagues, and now this will be my go to night time lunch spot. So glad they are open until 11:00 PM. Thanks for the tip JoseC

Y'all! This place is legit for breakfast tacos! Don't let the outside/building fool you! They have a special deal where if you order three breakfast of the same tacos is $4.25. So cheap. I ordered three chorizo and egg and 1 sausage and egg tacos. They were so good! Their salsas green and red were so good. I highly recommend this place Yes they take credit cards

Dont let the outside fool you. The food is amazing and they have very friendly service. Alo the booths are amazing.

Very friendly service and good food! My favorite go to food are the quesadillas, tortas, and enchiladas

The breakfast here is better than dinner in my opinion -FYI. We have been here a couple of times for breakfast and it's been good each time. You can get a Mexican style breakfast or just eggs and bacon and pancakes. We recently stopped in here for dinner. I ordered the chicken nachos. The chips here are not my favorite so I probably should have ordered something different. The toppings were good though. My husband got the chimichanga and he said was just ok too. I think if we come back for dinner we'll try something else on the menu. We'll definitely be back for breakfast at some point since we live in the area.

Doesn't look like much when your driving past, but I was dying of hunger so I popped in for lunch, true definition of a hole in the wall place and oh boy let me tell you what, for starters the chips and salsa was fire. I ordered a Don Juan burrito and the food was hot and the chicken savory and rice and seasoned just right if I could give it more than 5 stars I would

Lost of words. Lovely. Comfort great food..... I'm adding this to my favorite places to eat.

Ok I gave them another chance but this time we did dinner. We called in beef enchiladas and fajita nachos. They said ten minutes. We got there and the food was ready and fresh! I asked to add a torta but they were out. BUMMER! I got green sauce on my enchiladas, they were very good and spicy! The beef skirt was tender unlike most which is chewy if not cooked right. Hubbie loved his nachos and so did I. He couldn't finish them so I took care of that for him :) The rice and beans were ok. Not bad, not superb. Just ok. All in all they're a-ok with me.

Good food. Great prices. We go for breakfast most weekends. Our favorites are Mexican Eggs and Ranchero Eggs. They have no problem substituting the papas for extra beans or salad. The green salsa is GOOOOOOOD.

My hungry-bunch wanted Enchiladas,so I stopped in. We ordered. Ground Beef, Cheese Enchiladas in Red Sauce. I ordered Mole Enchiladas with Ground Beef and a large Agua Fresca Tamarindo. It was the Best Enchiladas we have ever encountered in South Austin! The food was great! Perfectly seasoned, salad fresh with guacamole. Beans & Rice were great compliments to entree. The whole vibe was inviting! This is our new place for Mexican Food!

Enchiladas verdes!!!!!! Yes!!!!!! Im Mexican and I approve this meal/place! So so so good and service was great!

This place used to be La Tapatila and was pretty good. I noticed that they changed name/owners so I decided to try it for lunch. The menu had quite a variety so I took a few minutes to look it over. I ordered a water and the waitress came back with a glass of water and some chips and salsa. The water was just tap water, which wouldn't have been so bad, but they didn't have any ice. The chips were stale. From where I was sitting, I could see behind the counter and they had a big bin of chips sitting underneath a stainless steel table out in the open. Who knows how long the chips have been sitting. I ordered the combination plate and chose beef fajita and al pastor. When the food came out, they forgot the tortillas. By the time they came out the food a cooled down. While the food was edible, it really didn't taste that good. For the price, I won't be going back any time soon.

I had a late lunch here today with my girlfriend. She is lying in bed sick right now. If it wasnt for my iron stomach i would be right next to her. Enough said......

Great authentic Mexican tacos, tostadas, quesadillas and more. A great small town feel, family owned place.

The service is sometimes, not often though, spotty. Only once did I have to get my food to go. The have a pretty big menu and I think are open for breakfast to, but I've only ever been for lunch I'm in love with their Torta Cubana. It is almost too much for one person. it's so big. And the tastes all melding together... Mm mm good. You get complimentary chips and salsa and it seems the salsa is homemade bc sometimes it's got a good bite and sometimes no.

This is our tradition practically for sundays and sat ams! LOVE the Chilaquiles! The service is quick and the food is always hot & delicious. The chips & salsa are a fun add on and if you are feeling adventurous we love the Chile Relleno as well! The breakfast pancakes are awesome too - hot & fluffy!

Hi yelpers! My family and I were around Ben white and were so hungry that we decided to check restaurants around us with yelp! So we found Don Juan not far and we decided to see if those reviews were really as good as they said. Our experience was AWESOME, the waitress came pretty fast and they took care of our order leaving some chips and salsa. Man, when I tried those chips, I knew that this place might be that good! Well, we ordered tacos, huevos rancheros and huevos a la mexicana. Well, I have to tell my wife is very picky with mexican's restaurants and she just loved everything! The kiddos did the same! We are sorry they are not that close to our house... way north of Austin! Well DONE Don Juan!

We were pleasantly surprised by this place! The food was good and the service was prompt and nice. And breakfast was super inexpensive! There may be some language barriers. A friend asked what the sauces on the table were and the waitress said 'red and green.' Still don't know what they were, but they were good!!!

Best breakfast tacos in S. Austin. We eat breakfast here several days a week. Great friendly service. Salsa is fresh and tasty. Tacos are hot, tasty and large. Very quick service. If you like divy Taco places this one is top notch.

Best migas tacos in Austin. Great hot sauce too. Everyone really friends and the service is quick. I hit this place up a few times a week.

This is my favorite breakfast taco place in Austin!! The green salsa is AMAZING!! And their flour tortilla are to die for. Can never go wrong with a bean and cheese taco!! 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

Delicious food, fun atmosphere, drive through, and surprisingly strong margarita :-) we will absolutely come here again; give it a try!

I live right around the corner and can't help put always order takeout tacos, SO YUMMY

This place is right by my house so I eat here a couple times a month. The food is decent and cooked to order, and fresh. Prices are decent too. Some of the waitresses can't speak english so they might f**k up your order if they can't understand you and bring you something totally different than what you ordered (unless you speak spanish). The interior is dingy and unimpressive, but more utilitarian with beer signs up on the walls. The people are nice though, and you can order beer here which is a plus in my book. In other words, I recommend it for a divey Mexican restaurant.

Donnnn Juannnnn it's the best in Austin/Gtown come on down where the best sit.food in ur belly money in ur pocket. I am a Bigggg fan still the day I die.

Pretty good food. It definitely seemed like a popular place. Migas was ok but chorizo & potato taco was better. Salsa was too spicy but it might have been bc I was hungover....

All I can say is the food here is awesome, and they are very flexible with the orders I would recommend the Don Juan parriada I like to sub pastor instead of the pork chops, this thing is huge!! The parriada for 2 is 2 meals each for my girlfriend and i. I will take pics of this thing so everyone can see.oh yeah the green sauce is my favorite. I eat there all the time

I was looking for a quick place to pick up food, and saw this place has a drive-thru. It is not only inexpensive, but pretty delicious. Their 3 breakfast taco special is so inexpensive. For a while, I picked up food from here at least once a week. But now I live farther away. Even my roommate, who is a very critical with Mexican food, loves this place. Strangely, I've never been inside. Oh and warning, the drive-thru is what you could expect from a hole-in-the-wall.

Happened to be in town and stayed in a hotel nearby. Inexpensive, but the food is good at the price and plentiful. Haven't been to many other Mexican restaurants in the area but I definitely enjoyed the meal.

The agua de melon or guayaba was not fresh. The rice and beans were not good. Did not have a really spicy salsa. When I tried to use a Groupon like certificate from my company, they would not honor it.

Ist off the breakfast taco deal only in the morning is great. (Drive thru or pick up) usually fast. For $3.something. The afternoon is sometimes a bit "UGH" the staff really isn't attentive .& sometimes takes awhile for ur food .. But the aguas are delish

I tried this place a couple of times. Its like any other "mexican restaurant". The only thing I liked is that they had homemade corn tortillas but then they stopped. I asked what happened and they said the tortilla lady was sick, and I guess she was sick forever! So I have yet to find an authentic mexican restaurant
