    California carne asada burrito. Basically no carne asada and the horchata is the machine one not authentic.
    Richard R.

    California carne asada burrito. Basically no carne asada and the horchata is the machine one not authentic. For the price I would think they would put at least some carne asada so u can taste something other than fries and rice. Had high hopes but don't think I'd be willing to spend that kind of money for rice and French fries burrito again

    Say nice things about Highland? It's landlocked, that's for sure! But, they do have some outstanding family-owned Mexican restaurants scattered about, and every one of them is unique in their style. Juanitos is in an older shopping strip on Palm near 5th, so it's easily accessible from the 210 Freeway. Parking is surprisingly dense but there's space further out there. Inside it's a divided section for ordering and waiting, and a largish dining room with TVs. I watched the men's freestyle Olympics figure skating as I waited and ate. It seemed like every time I lowered my head to take a bite someone messed up their routine and I only saw the wobble or knee touch afterwards. But what tasty bites they were! My order was broad enough for a good sample size, and after experiencing their spicy duo of salsas with the provided tortilla chips, i was primed for the street tacos. I couldn't really decide which was best as all four meats were excellent (carne asada, al pastor, chicken, and carnitas). Each was loaded enough to dump a portion onto the second tortilla and allowed me to compare the salsas with each type. Eighth mini tacos essentially. Without rice and beans, it was comfortably full and eager to go back soon for another round or two. Burrito or nachos? Or birria tacos? My other favorite thing was that made-to-order agua fresca, their pepito limon. I got the smaller size but it was sufficient and very delicious. I'll try another flavor next time for sure. Anyhow, excellent food and a good place for lunch or dinner if you're going to the Casino or heading up to the mountains.

    The cheese is melted under the toppings. Nasty asada.

    Never mind that there's no tasajo or cecina on offer. The tlayuda was puddle of melted jack cheese. I elected for the bland under-salted asada in hopes that it would be a suitable approximation. No dice. Without the Oaxaca cheese, it just tasted bland and fatty. No amount of the salsa they had in the squirt bottles could save my meal. I'd normally crush a tlayuda and waddle out of a Oaxacan joint uncomfortably full. Here I scraped a fist sized wad of jack cheese off in an attempt to save my meal, ate about 1/3 of it, chucked the rest in the trash, and left. The tacos arrived cold, with little meat, and were bland. One star for being generous with the avocados on everything!

    Carnitas tacos
    Ryan C.

    First time trying Juanito's Tacos and I was impressed. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful. The carnitas tacos were excellent, and the al pastor had really good flavor as well. The green sauce was one of my favorite parts -- flavorful with a nice kick but not overly spicy. Service at the counter was also great and welcoming. Overall, a really solid taco spot and I'll definitely be coming back.

    This little restaurant serves amazing food and great aguas frescas! The service is always friendly and the food is made fresh to order. It's not every day that you can find somewhere that makes amazing taquitos de papa, but Juanito's does just that! They have a pretty expensive menu, and next on my list to try is their quesabirria tacos. Their salsas are also delicious and spicy! The restaurant is located in a large shopping center with other food establishments, but the parking lot is big and usually not an issue. The restaurant itself, although fairly small, has a good amount of seating.

    Used to come all the time when I worked at a school near by. Moved to a different state but recently moved back to town. It's still great!! Glad to see it's still open. Seems like every good place is being closed down. Of course there is Rosa Maria's, but Juanita's offers a much different flavor and different vibe. The salsa is wonderful and the flavors are all great. It's all homemade so it can vary on flavor by the day, which I like! I like that it taste homemade. It is a family restaurant and that makes it all the better. The employees are all very nice and definitely care about their customers. I'll be back weekly, as usual.

    We found this place by accident, after dinner next door and on the way to get some dessert. Passed this place and the aroma was amazing. So after the dessert place we came back to this restaurant and ordered some to go because we can't eat anymore. Since that day we came to this place 3-4 times. I love the cheese enchiladas and taco biria. I will soon come back for different dishes. The staff are top notch kind and friendly and helpful. Parking not a problem

    Carne Asada fries with beans, sour cream and guac on side.

    Delicious green chicken enchiladas plate. The rice and beans are flavorful. The beans are creamy and seasoned. The green sauce is a little bit spicy. So if you're sensitive to spice, just don't order it. The star of the show was the Birria Mulitas. They were huge! These are not the street taco size tortillas. The Birria was tender and moist. The beef just melted on your tongue. The flavors were exceptional in every way. Please don't forget the consommé, because it just adds an extra knockout of flavors when you do the dip. Also, the restaurant is great about additions/substitutions. They have always gotten my order correct. The drinks were phenomenal. We had the pineapple, spinach, lime agua fresca and the lemonade con chia. This is one of our favorite Mexican places to go to, because we know the food is going to be good, fresh, and hot. You're never going to get something different each time you order it. It's going to look and taste the same each and every time. Consistency keeps customers coming back, and this place excels in that area. FYI...I now love their red and green salsas. They are delicious! I was trippin' on my other review.

    YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS PLACE!!! The food quality here is so fresh but the taste is even better. The menudo tastes like grandma made it. Si quieres un menudo authentico, tienes que vinir aqui. The service was excellent as well .

    This was my second attempt at supporting this establishment (in a different location was my 1st…read moreexperience) and needless to say the food is still awful and over priced... I ordered 2 carne asada tacos and the Mexican potatoes... -The taco meat texture is super weird...like it was damn near minced... blah flavoring and had to actually search for the meat under the 4 lbs of lettuce... Once it was found it was very little...more like a salad on the torillas...not to mention cold... -Mexican potatoes I asked that they be cooked well done no tomatoes... The onions and green peppers were partially cooked super crunchy... Yuck... I gave a rating of 2 instead of 1 because the hostess who sat us, our server and bus person were pleasant and my white sangria was meh but tolerable... Summary... Will I return to any of these restaurants... that is a solid and hard no! Definitely not worth the money...

    I've been coming to Mi Cocina since I was very young, and it used to be my favorite Mexican…read morerestaurant. However, since the move to the current location about 10 years ago, the quality of the food has gradually declined. To their credit, there have consistently been a few great servers who helped keep the experience enjoyable. Before today, the last time I dined here was over a year ago, and the food was decent. Unfortunately, this visit was noticeably worse. I came in today with a group of about nine people and we were seated outdoors, which was nice with the cooler weather. There was a live band, which makes sense for outdoor seating, but it was obnoxious, and that's on us for sitting outside. When the food arrived, it was mostly lacking flavor. One person in our group mentioned the rice was overly salty, while another found raw onions in their enchiladas. I ordered the México City Chile Ortega, and the sauce tasted processed, almost like it came from a can. The beans and rice were bland and not very good. I wasn't the only one who felt this way, several people in our group were disappointed with their meals. After we left, one person in our group mentioned they were so put off by their food that they didn't finish it. They said their enchiladas didn't taste right, so they tried to just eat the chicken inside. While doing that, they found what appeared to be a pincher bug in the food. It wasn't reported at the time and no photo was taken, but it was still very gross, and I wish there was some kind of proof. However, based on this experience, we won't be coming back.

    Today my husband and I came back to Fuego Cravings ( we went on Friday too for the first time)…read more because we just couldn't get through the weekend without a buirria taco and a campechano taco, one to eat there and one to go for lunch tomorrow . We've eaten a lot of Burria around California and Fuegos is ON POINT! Tender, juicy, with flavor richer than any we've tried! The consome they give you for dipping on the side is more than plenty, so rich and delicious. Best way to enjoy is to get the 2 taco birria with rice (yum) and beans with a drink all for one price. Today we met Maria who took our order and spoke with us about the food. I also am taken back by the the friendly and attentive service we have received both times. I could see how proud Maria was when she was talking about making the various dishes. All made with love and it comes through in the taste of the food. I know I sound like a broken record but I just can't believe we have this restaurant in our local area and haven't crossed its path until now. I'm glad we did though better late than never. I highly recommend Fuego Cravings Highland to even the most critical Mexican foodie.

After a long week and zero desire to cook on a Friday night, I finally decided to give it a try. When I pulled up, the line was surprisingly short, which felt like a good sign. The order window is right out front, and the menu is simple and familiar: tacos, burritos, sopes, tortas, quesabirria. I ordered a little bit of almost everything: asada street tacos, a bean and cheese burrito, beans and rice, an asada mulita, an al pastor sope, and a quesabirria. Prices were reasonable, and I spent under $50 for the whole spread. Food came out in about 15 minutes and was packed neatly. The disappointment started once I got home. There was no salsa in the bags, which already put us at a disadvantage. Only then did I realize there's apparently a salsa bar inside along with a small seating area, something you don't see from the front order window. Had I known that, I would've grabbed what we needed before leaving. Then we opened the tacos and realized they came completely plain... no onion, no cilantro, nothing. Just tortillas and meat. Not exactly what I expected. Visually, everything else looked fine, so I was hoping the flavor would make up for it... but it didn't. Everything tasted bland, like the seasoning took the night off. The only thing I halfway enjoyed was the beans and rice, and my family felt the same way. Maybe my expectations were too high based on the crowds I always see, but everything tasted like tortillas, meat, and cheese... and not much else. I'll give them credit for fair pricing and quick service, but that's about it. I really wish the cashier had mentioned that the tacos come plain or pointed me toward the salsa setup. Overall, not the experience I expected, and not one I'd rush back for.
