My favorite Mexican restaurant in North County. Great food, good prices, nice atmosphere. I especially like to stop and eat on the patio when I'm out cruising on my bike. read more

Other reviewers seem to love the taste of Los Junior's food. I don't. I found it quite bland, bordering on flavorless. The quality was excellent, the portions were huge, the menu vast, but of the half-dozen dishes I've tried here, I wouldn't re-order any of them. Maybe it's that I am not a fan of Baja style cooking. I like the food in Oaxaca and Michoacán and Guerrero and Jalisco, but not so much Baja. But here in North County, Baja is our neighbor and Los Junior's does a credible job of serving it up. That said, I am very impressed by the efficiency and smoothness of Los Junior's drive-thru operation. It takes a lot of skill and organization to manage a drive-thru with a menu that big. They do it well. A long-time ago I was in a Michelin 3-star restaurant in Paris and got to see the obviously-wealthy patrons at the next table slather ketchup on their food. I don't think ketchup would make me better like the taste of Los Junior's food, but the concept is the same: carefully-crafted flavors are not for everyone. read more

Their 2 taco plate apparently is now made with MINI TACOS. For the same price. Next time I'll go somewhere that serves regular tacos. read more

Los Junior's - Mini tacos - Mexican Near Me - Vista, California

We found this spot while in Vista on a project. Great food, everything we tried was amazing. Staff were very friendly and helpful!

I had this restaurant bookmarked on Yelp for a while now and am so glad I was finally in the area to try it out. What makes Los Juniors special is that it is a super cute restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating (located in more of a residential neighborhood versus commercial center) but it's ALSO a drive thru which is awesome to get sit down quality food in a drive thru experience (which if you have kids like I do, you know that is clutch!) We actually ate inside and tried a variety of items. Our favorites were the fish tacos (they truly are just as good as all the other 5 star Yelp reviews recommend) and chile rellenos. We got a few other tacos and it's important to note that the tacos are really big! Not the mini tacos here but really good size tacos so if you normally eat 3 tacos, I'd suggest getting 2 here since they are good sized. Their carnitas is also really good with crispy edges that I love. Overall the ambiance is super cute, all the employees are really nice, and the food is delicious and the location isn't too far away from the 78fwy so it's very easy to stop by! read more

Fastest service I've ever experienced. I ordered 4 Fish Tacos, 3 Carne Asada Street Tacos, and 3 Adobada Street Tacos to go. The food was tasty. My favorite is the Fish Tacos and Adobada. I found the decor to be cute. There's palm trees inside the restaurant and has a vibrant feel to it. They also have outdoor patio seating. I'd come here again. read more

We've been in SD for almost a year now and it took us this long to hit up Los Junior's... let me tell you, there are many mediocre Mexican places in this county, but Los Junior's knocks it OUT OF THE PARK. It looks super unassuming but I just ate the best enchiladas I have had in months and they came from the lovely lady at the Los Junior's drive through. The kitchen was GLEAMING clean, the food is exceptional, 10/10 A++++ will definitely eat here again. read more

Delicious little family owned restaurant with a drive thru. Get the tostadas, any of their soups, quesadillas, a plate of any kind! Great flavors, hard working owners, and they make great homemade horchata. The ambiance is laid back and they keep their kitchen and dining area really clean. read more

Literally the best Mexican drive thru in North County. Been to so many in the 13 years I've lived here but the flavors elsewhere don't compare. + green chile ‍ read more

Drink food I'd eat even when sober. Los Junior's has a vast menu of burritos, tacos, tortas, and more. I had a vegetarian burrito and it scratched my late-night-meal-itch. The most memorable item of all was my cup of Jamaica. Strong brewed, perfectly sweet. Totally worth it. read more

Finally! Finally stopped in on the way home and picked up some deliciousness from here! And so glad we did! I can't speak for eating in the restaurant but to go order was made perfectly and the carne asada was cooked to perfection. The tortillas were fresh and delicious. The prices seem reasonable and plenty of chips with our salsa! Parking entrance and exit can be difficult at times but plan accordingly- read more

The atmosphere was nice. It was relatively clean good foot service. My order was fast. For the food, I ordered myself a Californian burrito and it was very delicious I love how the meat was juicy and had flavor. When I wish there was more vegetable in it, but I'm not complaining. With the salsa they and you can serve yourself which type of spicy levels you want it made the burrito taste more better. The guest service was hospitable I would recommend taking your family there for a nice time and a good meal. Would recommend the Burrito section. read more

Super fresh chicken soup. Huge portion enough for 2 full meals. WOW!!! The vegetables were very fresh too.

Ordered breakfast for 6 the other days. Hot fast, fresh, and delicious. No complaints from my peeps. Great job.

We ordered some pickup the other day from Los Juniors. The pickup service was quick and friendly. The food was still warm when we got it home and was tasty. I had a carne asada burrito which was a little smaller than other burritos from other places but the meat was flavorful and I was satisfied. My wife had fajitas which had carne asada, chicken, and shrimp along with the vegetables, beans, and rice. She enjoyed the food as well and I got a chance to taste it and was also happy with the taste and size of the portion. All in all we would definitely order again and we want to try eating at the restaurant just to get another perspective. read more

this place is just amazing and has been for the past five years. We were there probably about twice a week. It's the only place I go to where I don't get a stomach ache afterwards. We eat very clean and mostly at home except for this place and a few others, I can usually tell what type of ingredients is businesses use from the way I'm feeling the day after. This place is a gem. read more

Stopped in while getting my car serviced near by. And so glad I did! It was about a 5 min walk from the car place. Very good food and a peaceful atmosphere you wouldn't really expect. I had my dogs with me so we sat on the patio that had beautiful succulents surrounding. We ordered a Michelada and a fish taco, both were deleicious! So happy I found this places. Whenever I'm in the area I will be stopping by read more

They have a really good carne asada burrito. I thought I'd start with that. It's a cute Mexican food shop that's spacious with indoor & outdoor seating & a drive through. The place is also open late- until 11:45. It's hard to find good Mexican taco shop that's open late & has a drive through. Los Juniors does! Even though it's on the East side of Vista it's worth the drive, glad I was shown this gem. I would definitely recommend this Mexican spot- unless you're looking for an date spot because this isn't that. Happy eating read more

This was the first spot we went to when we moved back to North County 3 years ago... we've tried a handful of other spots but nothing seems to compare. Service is relatively quick and the people there are genuine and kind. We've had virtually everything off of the menu and it is all fantastic. I personally love to order a 1/2 order of Pollo Asado fries and a side tortilla while my wife is partial to the veggie burrito or the 3 flautas. I've also really enjoyed the Colorado and San Diego burritos as well. Anything you order you'll love! Just your classic Mexican food shop. You know if it's got faded pictures of its meals on the windows, old painted murals, and a telenovela playing inside... you're gonna leave full and happy. read more

Been coming for years but the last 3 visits order has been wrong and they been giving the wrong salsas I asked twice this last visit for 4 green salsas in the drive through and at the window and received all red it's either that or in previous times they put one in the bag when I asked for a few for a Farley large order. read more

My first time at Los Junior's today. I usually play it safe with first time try's, ordered a carne asada burrito at the drive thru, It was delicious!!! Full of carne asada with just the amount of pico de gallo. Can't wait to go back to try something else. read more

I have been working in San Marcos for a month and come here 2-3 times a week. Today I ordered two California burritos, one with only cheese and they marked which one had only cheese. When I bit into it it had a bunch of sour cream which makes me really sick. I called to see if they could remake it and they were very apologetic and said "no worries that's fine we'll remake it I'm very sorry for that." When I got there the lady at the counter was extremely rude and argumentative trying to tell me I was in the wrong when I literally took a picture of it to show them and kept trying to charge me for it and she slammed the register shut when I bought my soda from them. Then proceeded to drop the new burrito in my hand and made a snarky comment as she was walking away. As a business owner myself if one of the people working for me had the audacity to speak to and treat a customer that way they would be sent looking for new employment that same day. I loved coming to this place until that happened and now I will no longer be coming back. read more

From the surrounding area, you'd think this would be a bit of a questionable restaurant regarding cleanliness and/or quality. However, you'd be greatly mistaken as my partner and I both were. Not only was the inside super cute and very clean, but the food was by far some of the heftiest and delicious. I got two shrimp tacos and a carne asada taco and was shocked to see how big they were. My fiancé ordered 2 enchiladas and a burrito, and was also surprised at how large the enchiladas were. He thought they would be much smaller so he ordered the burrito to supplement. Great quality and price. Highly recommend! read more

Well, it happened again. I ordered from door dash 3 burritos, 3 rolled tacos, carne asada fries and 6 beef tacos and I got 6 total salsas. Knowing they are stingy on salsa I paid an extra $2 for 3x red and 3x mild verde. They didnt include the extra six and barely gave us any for our LARGE order. This "extra salsa order" is a scam! Its a shame with their raised prices they don't want to provide salsa. When you ask them at the drive thru you get attitude. read more

We've driven by this place on South Santa Fe Avenue for years, but never stopped to try it. It's just a small little Resturant in an old building, not a particularly pretty building. My daughter had recommended this place so I thought I better try it. I was short on time and hungry. There is some indoor seating, but they also have a gated off patio seating on the side of the building. You drive around the patio seating area and the Resturant to place the order and procede around to the window to pay and pickup your food. I decided to just order from the drive up menu. They have a chili relleno and enchilada plate on the menu. I requested to substituted the enchilada with a beef taco, which they were willing to do. All plates come with red rice and beans. The young man at the window was very courteous. He took my money and handed my bag of food to me. The order was correct and had a generous supply of salsa and napkins and a plastic fork. Overall the food was good. The beans didn't taste like refried beans, but like a better quality canned refried beans. Not exactly like Rosarita refried beans, but an upgrade from that. Definitely had a canned bean look and taste. I must admit I ate them, but was very disappointed in them. The chili relleno was amazing!! The crust was crunchy and had an amazing taste. One of the best chili relleno I have had in a very long time. That alone will have me coming back! The beef taco was very good, too! No complaints on the rice. I would have gladly given 5 star review, if it wasn't for the beans, which explains the 4 stars. But as I said, the chili rellano was worth every penny! read more

I am very torn with this place. We've been coming here for years because it was pretty good food, close to home and had a drive thru. The last few years we have had good food and horrible food here. We had carne asada burrito's and the meat was overcooked and dry. The prices keep going up, you even have to pay for extra salsa. The prices don't match the menu board. I ordered a cheese quesadilla (one side wasn't cooked all the way and it was only cut in half (not in 4's as it usually is) and the price the on the board was $6.50 (a lot for a tortilla and cheese). It was rung up as $6.99. I had nothing extra added. We've received the wrong order or had to wait because they gave our order to the car before. We definitely go there less now unless we go late and other places near us are closed. read more

My family and I were visiting San Diego and was looking for quick Mexican food to take back to our resort. We ordered a bean and cheese burrito, carne asada nachos, a vegetarian burrito and a large horchata drink. I went inside and ordered. I was there at 11am on a Monday and the drive thru had a couple cars waiting. It took about 15 minutes for my food to be ready. I opened the bag to make sure that everything was correct before leaving since I've read other Yelp reviews having issues with missing items. Everything was there. We are from Los Angeles, so we've tried lots of Mexican food. This place was average. Price is a little higher, but it's consistent with the economy. I didn't like that they charge to use credit card. I'd come back to try their other options if we are in the area again. read more
