Best

This place is a Berkeley tradition. It is delicious. And it shows up quickly and pretty much in just as good a shape as you would get it fresh at a table. Yay!

Worst

The only ingredients they seemed to use were beans, rice, and cheese. (Got vegetarian stuff). Sooooo heavy. Why no cilantro, tomato, avocado, onion, etc?

Mas Mas! 10/16/2003

The food is great, the crowds are bearable - grab a mismatched barstool at the bar. This is the epitomy of downhome Mexican food. Best you'll find north of San Diego. Pros: food, service, atmosphere Cons: crowds more

Great for Birthdays 1/28/2003

I've been there for two peoples birthdays now and it's always a treat. They dim the lights and this big Disney slash gothic version of Happy Birthday comes on and it is the best. All the food's great. Try the crab enchiladas. Yeah, too bad about the wine margaritas but hey, they come by the pitcher. more

Almost perfect 10/4/2002

This is the best Mexican food in the Berkeley/Oakland area. There's only one problem. They serve wine margaritas, which is a sin against humanity. If they get a liquor license, this place will be heaven. Pros: Greate Food, Inexpensive Cons: Wine Margaritas, Wine Margaritas, Wine Margaritas more

Cheesy goodness!! 8/30/2002

If you're looking for tasty, authentic Mexican food, you have to try Juan's. I run away from most of the healthy, ""burritos and yogurt"" places and the Americanized, bland, loosely-termed ""Mexican food"" joints here in the Bay area--and I run straight to Juan's. The food, the wine margaritas, the chips 'n' salsa, and the service are excellent. And the prices are low too! more

Awesome Shrimp 8/8/2002

Juan's place is wonderful-the chips are the best I've ever had, and the shrimp fajitas were amazing! Plus the waiters are friendly, fast, and attentive. I'm bringing all my friends here! Pros: Inexpensive, fun atmosphere more
