Tacos Don Juan

A casual taco spot with a few outdoor tables and a fairly extensive menu. We tried the suadero, longaniza, and pastor - all solid, with the longaniza standing out for its rich flavor. They also accept cards, which is a nice plus.

Great taco spot in condesa. They even have a few tables if you get there at the right time. Food was great. It covers all the basics you would hope for in a traditional taco. It was the first taco I had when in Mexico and it has set the bar high for everyone else.

It is a traditionnal tacos place: amazing quality, fast, no chichi no blabla. Order, pay, get your sauce, sit somewhere, enjoy. Not many table but people dont stay long. I went 3 times, my favorite tacos in the city.

These were some of my favourite tacos from a 5 day trip in Mexico City (where all I ate for lunch and dinner was tacos). The al pastor was my favourite. There is no English menu and I made a slight blunder in my ordering, so bring Google translate if possible

I made the mistake of not trying the quesabirria tacos my first time here. Please just try it. So delicious. Very casual spot and good fast service

Tacos Don Juan is a solid spot for quick, fresh Mexican food. The menu has a good variety, they prepare everything fresh to order, and service is very fast. The flavor is good and portions are fair great for a casual, no-fuss meal when you want something tasty without a long wait. Just note that if you go around lunch time (2–3pm), you should expect about a 10–15 minute queue before ordering.

Came here 4 days in a row and will probably come back the next 3 days before we leave. The food is simple and excellent do not miss!

Absolutely amazing tacos!!! They have always made some fantastic food. The birria tacos are great. A must have.

My first taco spot in Mexico and it was really good. Tons of options like tortas, vampiros, and classic tacos, plus a wide variety of meats. Everything had great flavor and solid texture. The salsa bar was also very good and added a lot to the experience. Not the most English-friendly place, but it's easy enough to get by if you try. Service: Straightforward and efficient, limited English but manageable Food/Drinks: Excellent flavors, good textures, wide meat selection, strong salsa bar Ambiance: Extremely long line usually 9/10 Delicious tacos with great variety and flavor, an excellent first taco stop in Mexico

Not my usual style of taco, but best carnitas taco I've ever had. The pork had deep flavor, really tender, and great bite. Perfect.

Grabbed some quessobirria tacos and they cooked them fresh to order with plenty of onions and cilantro. I would have to assume the consome would come with the tacos but it does not. The service was a great experience, everyone was nice and fast at getting orders prepared. It's a small walk in standing room only type taco spot but outside they do have covered tables with seating available.

WOW. Had to wait in line a bit but the food (and the smells from the grill) were worth it. Very friendly, jovial guys behind the counter and the seating is outdoor only. They also have a salsa/con todo bar set up for toppings and sauces.

It was on the Pujol recommendation list. We tried 2 - Lengua and Pork Rib I think. It was fine. Maybe should have ordered the cheesey one? They just chopped up the meat and serve, so the tacos were warm, would have been much better if they were heated.

Another epic taco spot to add on your list of places to eat at in CDMX in the Condesa neighborhood. When we went they were only doing pork tacos which were phenomenal. They have a wonderful salsas bar in the back that has jalapeños, onions, green and red salsas and limes. Tips: they accept credit cards, outdoor seating, birria tacos on weekends only. This is a great place to get food and nearby the museums, botanical garden, Parque Espana and Parque Mexico.

While the tacos were good, it wasn't anything to write home about, especially given there are about a trillion options in Mexico City. Like other reviewers said, these were fat tacos so be prepared to be quite full afterwards.

Legit taco spot in Condesa. You'll know because there's a long line out the door of this small corner eatery. Clean, well organized and the best quesabirria tacos I've ever had. Ordered two of those bad boys along with a costilla taco. The costilla was a meaty rib served on a tortilla. Very tasty and juicy. Lots of other meat options to choose from, many of which I've never heard of before. Stopped by the day after and the menu actually changed! Got two quesabirrias along with the costilla and an horchata for 10 bucks. Great deal for great food.

Seriously phenomenal cheese Birria tacos. The arrachera tacos were my other favorite but honestly, you really can't go wrong with whichever taco you decide to munch on. The meats are seasoned and cooked to perfection. You walk in on the main side of the street and walk up to the counter where you give your order to the person behind the counter while someone else writes it down on a receipt. Give your whole order including drinks so it's all included on the receipt. Then walk a few steps to your right to the cashier where they take cash and credit cards. This place is small but worth the visit. There is some outside seating/tables, as well as outside counter space but be prepared to eat standing. Also, be prepared to line up for these tacos, you won't regret it.

Absolutely delicious taqueria located in Condesa. Went there twice because we enjoyed it so much. Rotating meat selection based on the day. Enjoyed the Bistek and the Ribeye. Beer is available for pairing. Great for lunch. Closes at 5pm.

I was in Mexico City for a quick 5-day trip and ate at Tacos Don Juan twice because it was just that good. The first day I went (a Tuesday), they had their "standard" menu. I tried the al pastor and the arrachera (skirt steak) tacos both with cheese and they were phenomenal. They toss the meat and cheese on the flat top before adding it to the tortilla so the cheese is melted and just a little crispy to give the taco a great texture. The second day I went (a Friday), they had a carnitas menu available. This was the first place I've seen that let you specify what part of the pig you want. I ordered the maciza + cuero (pork butt + pork rind) and a ribeye "costra de queso" which is where they crisp up a bed of cheese and use it as the tortilla. Some of the other carnitas options they had available were: - Costilla = rib - Chamorro = leg - Trompa = nose - Oreja = ear - Lengua = tongue - Surtida = mix of all the meats The carnitas were absolutely delicious. They also have a selection of lime, onion, and salsas to doctor up your tacos however you see fit. The costra de queso was good for a few bites, then got a bit too salty as I ate more just because the tortilla was made of cheese. It felt like a dish that Taco Bell would love to get its hands on. I would recommend sharing one costra between 4 people. You order at the counter, eat, and then pay at the end. Seating was outside with plenty of tables, all with umbrellas so it was a protected from the elements. The atmosphere was casual but with a proper storefront in the cute La Condesa neighborhood. I am dying to try their birria tacos so will absolutely return again next time I'm in Mexico City.

Great quality and beautiful work! The owner lady is kind and speaks great English. First you order at the counter and get the tab and pay at the cashier. Limited outside stand to eat. That is minus. But good price for this yummy tacos. No wonder people flock.

What a tasty taco! The service was quick and efficient. Take away was a bit crowded and busy but worth it! Cool local spot, would definitely come back if in the Roma neighborhood

Come here for the birria tacos.. they were amazing! Service is quick and prices are great! This seemed like a local favourite. Recommend

Order at the counter and they hand you a paper to pay to the right of the kitchen. They have a handful of tables outside. Al pastor and suadero tacos are juicy and they really pack it full of meat.

Hands down best quesa birria tacos ive ever had. Staff was so friendly letting me take pics with my new camera.

Delicious and cheap. We got carnitas tacos and really they were prefect!

Food was so good! I would recommend to anyone. Don Juan was AWESOME! Avocado sauce was very fresh and light.

Went there based on reviews and we were not disappointed. Quesobirria tacos were to die for. It takes a bit longer for these tacos so they bring them out to you. Their avocado salsa was so fresh tasting with just the right amount of spice. We overate due to being so hungry when we ordered at noon, but it kept us so full that we only had a few drinks later that night and didn't need dinner!

Awesome food! Get the Quesa Birra tacos. As a note, essentially the whole menu is pork so all the names of tacos you see are just different cuts of pork. If you don't speak Spanish or aren't sure what to get, just get the QuesaBirra tacos. Other wise just get carnitas tacos con todos. Carnitas is not explicitly on the menu but it's a normal cut of pork if you aren't read to eat tongue or ears!

Great food! I would not skip this place if you are looking to go :) tacos were just right! !!!

I order nachos and cow cheeks tacos and honestly I could taste any flavor on any thing and for my surprise I also got a tooth in my tacos

Best tacos I ate on my trip. Hands down. I don't know what meat I ate but it was delicious. The salsa was spicy and super good. The quesadilla was yummy with the cheese browned. This is one place I want to not write the review for because the line was already long and it might get longer . Definitely a must visit because this is legit, compared to so many places pretending to be something in condesa

Woah. Go. There. Now. We were in a line at 12pm on a Saturday. The quesabirria is the #1 taco I have had in my life. Just get it and get the consommé that comes with it. Stand outside, dip your taco into the yummy consommé, and smile with your eyes closed. It's so effing good. The green sauce is fresh and good to put on top as well. The service is so nice especially to a non speaking Spanish girl.

Best taco I had in CDMX. This place should be on everyone's list. We went at noon and waited about 5-7 minutes in line. The Quesabirria was everything we hoped for and a local showed us to dip it in the consume (which had such deep rich flavors you could drink it up). The pork taco was also good, but I'd rather order 2 quesabirria's and call it a day! Make this a stop on your food tour! Also, don't skimp on the avocado salsa. It was a hit!

Tacos Don Juan serves up the best street tacos in CDMX. Change my mind. TL;DR Version: - Delicious AF. Packed with authentic flavor.  - Wide variety of tacos - Affordable. More tacos for your pesos. Long Winded Version: Food: 5/5 The tacos were seriously delicious. Tacos Don Juan set the standard for tacos during my trip to CDMX and many other taco spots I visited after fell short of that benchmark. The tacos are packed with flavorful meat topped with traditional additions. Location: 5/5 The neighborhood is really chill and great for a mid-day stroll. There's a park nearby so you can walk off the taco goodness and appreciate the greenery around you. There's also a dope tattoo shop down the block and some amazing fish tacos directly across the street at El Pescadito. Atmosphere / Ambiance: 4.5/5 No thrills here. It's a pretty small spot where you'll have to enjoy your tacos standing up. That might be for the best because these babies aren't for those who want to look cute while eating. Toppings and meat will be falling out with most bites but that's to be expected with street tacos. Price / Value / Quality: 5/5 For less than $15 (usd) I was able to get a plethora of tacos. A smorgasbord of deliciousness if you well. I tried so many different types that I didn't really even know what I was eating. I knew two things: these tacos were delicious and they were all going into my mouth. The flavor is amazing and everything is fresh and authentic.

Great taco place, server was very cool and efficient. Very inexpensive, had a ribeye taco with cheese and it was excellent.

We went back to this spot twice. First time we just randomly picked it from the Yelp page... 2nd time - definitely intentional and got into an uber across town to return to these yummy tacos Tips! * get it quesadilla style - just means it has yummy melted cheese * on the weekends they have birria ( i think only on weekends) GET IT. it is to die for. The queso birria. wow. * definitely get the Tamarind drink! soooo yum - got it both times. They do close earlier around 6pm and it seems they have diff meats on diff days. Their beef was even juicier than their pork to me. Will be back if we return to cdmx :P

AMAZING tacos!!! Best tacos we had during our trip here. They do have an English menu as well to help. Generous helping of juicy meats. What we ordered: suadero, arranchera con longanisa (brisket and sausage), longanisa alone, al pastor and chicharrone. You can choose beans or rice with the taco - we got rice for all. Sauces on the side - avocado is delicious and not spicy. Best tacos for a great price! Out of the above our favorite was the suadero! No real seats, just stand and eat or find a small bench nearby. Definitely worth the trip. El Pescadito is across the street too for fish tacos! Closed the day we came. But Taco Don Juan more than made up for it!!!

The food was incredible. WOW. The queso-birria was amazing. Get it with a side of consume. You won't regret it. Amazing!!!!

Best Tacos and friendliest owners in Mexico City. Do not miss going here. Everything including the drinks were delicious. Our last morning, we rushed here to eat again before leaving for the airport.

Tacos Don Juan is the second place in La Condesa I recommend going to for tacos. The other - El Pescadito - is conveniently located right across the street. Tacos Don Juan is one of those legit hole-in-the-wall taco places you look for while in Mexico. Each person steps up, orders whatever meat they have available at the time, and then eats standing up. It's not a huge production like some other places but it is damn good. My girlfriend and I got some tacos at El Pescadito across the street and seeing Don Juan as well, we knew we would be filling up there with the carnitas and costilla. The costilla was the best of the two and it was really neat to see the guys behind the counter taking orders, picking the meat from their huge pile and then chopping it up before handing it over. It's a really neat experience if you're used to the regular assembly line of tacos we have in America. This place is a must eat if you are in the neighborhood!

If you hit up one spot in Mexico City for street tacos this is the spot. Super cheap, excellent quality and very fresh. I've been multiple times and I'm usually the only Gringo there so you know it has to be good.

Tacos Don Juan is a must try for tacos. No frills about it, just really solid tacos that have you eating everything off the plate. I've been told that if there's a line, that means it's worth eating at. Tacos Don Juan is no exception to this. There's not a ton of seating, but I would gladly stand to eat these!

We originally heard about Tacos Don Juan courtesy of the show Somebody Feed Phil. Easily the BEST tacos we had in CDMX. You walk up and hop in line. Order to your hearts content and then pay when you're done. The line moves quickly so don't let that scare you away. If you're lucky, you'll be able to snag a bench outside like we did, but there are also a few tables along the sides where you can set your goodies down as you stand and eat. I would highly recommend the asada and queso! The horchata was delicious as well. 100% would return next time we're in Mexico City.

I went to Tacos Don Juan for a taco snack before a lunch reservation one Monday a few weeks back. It was a noon snack of three tacos, so it was really more of a full first lunch--but hey, it was my last day in Mexico City. I'd actually made one prior attempt to snack at Don Juan, going so far as to walk to the storefront to find it closed during a Saturday stroll in La Condesa (I guess it closes sometime in the afternoon). I'm glad I made a point of going back. These tacos were ridiculous. Tacos Don Juan is a hole in the wall where you order your tacos and eat them sitting or standing right outside, juices pouring down your face and wrists. Service is brisk and polite (the servers speak enough English that they defaulted to it with me, even though I swear one of the only things I can reliably do in Spanish is order tacos). There was a line when I went, but it moved fast enough that I barely had time to decide what to get by the time my turn was up. The tacos came on plastic-wrapped plates for easy clean-up. I think I paid after I ate. I got three tacos: the suadero with longanisa sausage, the entomatado de res, and the carnitas. They were pretty big, with plenty of meat and choice of rice or beans, served on double layers of soft corn tortillas. There was a salsa bar with a great hot salsa and avocado salsa, as well as some roasted peppers and tiny limes. The suadero was my favorite of the meats. I'd never had this before, but it's apparently a thin cut of pork or beef (I don't know which they serve here) taken from between the belly and the leg--sounds a lot like groin or grundle to me, but whatever, it was delicious, as was the flavorful sausage. It came with onion and cilantro, and I opted for rice over beans. The entomatado de res was a stewy beef and tomato taco, which I got with beans. Rich, savory, and delightfully wet. The only disappointment was the carnitas taco, and only because I'm pretty sure it was not a carnitas taco. If it was, it was the most organy chewy carnitas I've ever had, but like, it was for sure from deep inside whatever animal it came from. Not bad, for organ meat, but not what I was expecting or in the mood for at that particular time. I only had a couple of bites, which was probably for the best, what with my huge second lunch coming in half an hour. I spent five days in Mexico City, and I actually ended up having worse tacos, on average, than I do in L.A., where I know exactly where to go. I'm glad I tried Tacos Don Juan on my last day in town. It was outstanding, the suadero and longanisa one of the best tacos I've ever had. I'd come back again and again if I lived in CDMX.

Possibly the best tacos I've had so far...ever. I was in taco-bliss during those four tacos. Simply amazing and not to be missed if in La Condesa. This is an authentic whole-in-the-wall joint. There is no seating area - you eat at the counter. They make your tacos and you pay after you are done....this can get dangerous as I started off with two and added two more after! Give it a try if you are in the area and want unpretentious tacos!

These were some of the best street tacos I've ever had! I didn't feel like cooking and saw this truck and decided to try it! I just got tacos but they added grilled onions and a grilled jalapeno. The salsa was to die for! I will definitely be on the lookout for this food truck. And very nice ladies serving and a great price! I'm in reno...

Don Juan's is as authentic as it gets, with two guys behind the counter chopping up the meats. They have daily meat specials and on the day we went, they had carnitas and costilla, both of which were delicious! They have an assortment of toppings and sauces-my favorite was the guacamole salsa verde. Highly recommend!!

Solid street tacos. We got the tacos de costilla (rib) and they were perfect with the avocado sauce. Each taco was only $24 pesos and they don't skimp on the portions! Plus, I heard it's a place Jordi Roca frequents when he visits CDMX, and I can definitely see why.

Amazing Tacos! This is a great lunch spot as they serve delicious yet quick tacos. This is not a sit-down place but the service is excellent. You walk up to the window, place your order, stand and eat, and then pay. Their hours are slightly limited as they are primarily a lunch place (They close around 1630) but when they are open you will not be disappointed. The menu changes daily but I highly recommend the picadilo. It contained ground beef and potatoes in a tomato sauce. Very delicious! I also tried the bistec asado and the azteca. The bistec has grilled steak and onions and the azteca has cactus, cheese, and dried beef. Everything tasted excellent. Buen Provecho!

Homemade style tacos with incredible flavours are what you'll find here. It was a truly authentic experience, which we happened to enjoy alongside locals who had popped by for lunch. The only seating you'll find here is a couple of benches that are facing the restaurant, so you're left to concentrate on what's important- your food. For 6 filling tacos, and 2 fruit juices expect to pay around $12.00 USD.

I don't really know what to say other than this place rules. Everything I have ordered--on a rotating menu-- has been outstanding. Only open for lunch with very limited outdoor seating. But none of that matters once you dig into the food. The frijoles (not available every day) alone are worth a special trip.

Delicious Tacos Al Pastor. They're taking care of Covid procedures. Fast and organized. Take your shot!

Maybe the best tacos you will have. Try different types and enjoy the array of sauces, onions, and other toppings on display. Highly recommend 2-3 tacos for a quick and filling lunch.

My favorite tacos in DF. The menu changes daily but there is always something great. It's best on Friday or Saturday when they have carnitas. The best. Wait in line to order, stand and eat outside, and pay after. This is as good as it gets for a standing lunch

Amazing and simple. Milanesa de pollo and carnitas normales. Super nice people. Affordable.

For years friends of mine have raved about the arrachera tacos here. I finally went and was sorry I hadn't gone sooner. No frills (and no chairs or tables), but the arrachera tacos are indeed fantastic!
