    Guac Burrito Bowl
    Divya R.

    If you are looking for a home style authentic fast food Mexican restaurant, this is the one. Decent seating arrangement. Not like chipotle, Willy's or Moe's or a Mexican restaurant. It's like McDonalds for Mexican food. Selected options standard proteins, order the food and pick up the food when you are called. I took Guac bowl with chicken - shredded chicken, rice, pinto beans, chopped tomato, onion and cheese. Hot sauté/ salsa on the side was good.

    TRY THE ENCHILADA BOWL! I was craving Mexican but I wasn't feeling like eating a flour tortilla, so I made an adjustment. I noticed that Miguel's Jr. had bowls now and I was super happy! I tried the Enchilada Bowl with shredded chicken, cheese, beans, rice, tomato, Mexican cream and red sauce. BEST DECISION TODAY! It was so flavorful and tasty, I will definitely order it again soon. We also tried the green chile and cheese tamal. It was good, but not as delicious as the pork version of which they ran out of. Next time! I'm impressed with this Miguel's Jr. customer service and professionalism. The girl running the counter on Black Friday was super friendly and helpful. Additionally, the rest of the staff seemed very well-organized and served us quickly. I felt very comfortable at this location, people were calm and families enjoyed a tasty bite without issue. It's got a great ambiance. Side note: I really like the location of this restaurant, it's near the hub of shopping centers nearby.

    3/4/25 Last day to use my $5 Bonus card
    Jennifer W.

    3/4/25 Today is the last day to take advantage of the $5 bonus from Miguel's Jr. we're up for a burrito or a taco. The lady at the counter, Marlene was friendly & efficient. She quickly took our order & accepted our bonus cards. While waiting for our to-go meals, I checked our surroundings. Clean & neat interior adorned with wall framed photos & murals about the history of Miguel's Jr which was a Corona staple since 1973. I ordered the 2 burrito special for $10 (then minus the $5 card, SCORE!), Hubby got a street taco for free with his $5 bonus card. I thought we were taking it go but Hubby attacked his street taco as soon as he received it. Because it's pretty good, small but the carne asada meat was tender & well seasoned. We shared my beef burrito & will save the other one for later. Marlene generously packed about 7 green containers of green salsa. Greatly appreciated this gesture. It was also hefty & I really loved the fresh soft tortilla. The shredded beef was umamilicious & it is Hubby approved. He says it's actually fresh tasting. He's such a critic of Mexican food as he's had it all his life and his tias fed him well. Would gladly return to this location if in the area. Plenty of free parking in their dedicated lot.

    Shredded beef Nachos

    Went though the drive up window and it was quick! I ordered a regular burrito with shredded beef! My wife had the 3 taquitos and we enjoyed both!

    It was 8:24 pm Mind you Miguel's don't close till 9:00 pm they already had the table's cleaned and chairs put away when we walked in. they asked us if it's for here or to go we said for here then when we sat down.Then the lady came to us and said oh sorry they said it has to be for to go . That's the craziest thing I've heard . One star I will never go to this location ever again .

    Michael M.

    Would you give this to ur family? If it's burnt, why put it in the plate. Dirty move! I didn't ask for shredded meat. It was supposed to be a asada plate. Date and time: 4-9-25 around 2pm

    I rarely leave negative reviews...you really have to mess up . I ordered food for my family and as i was scooping the beans and rice into a bowl i noticed metal shards in the beans. They were small sharp and if i didn't notice them my 1 and 4 year old would have ate them. Tried calling the location twice to resolve the issue and was on hold for 30 plus minutes both times. I reached out to corporate. Just be careful if you eat here..especially if you have kids.

    Hard taco that was soft when I got home 7 minutes after I left the drive thru
    A H.

    Food is expensive for what you get. Tacos are really greasy. I ordered a hard shell regular taco & by the time I got home is was soft & falling apart. Flavor was not good. Prices are high for poor flavor .

    Pebble in the burrito and idk what the yellow thing is that was found in the rice .......

    Hi Julie, we use premium lard for our cooking oil. It is a rich, flavorful ingredient in homestyle Mexican cuisine and is incorporated into several recipes for that downright irresistible quality we’re famous for!

My ordered double dipped Big Beef Sandwich with Sweet Bell Peppers, melted Mozzarella Cheese, and Giardiniera was enormous, and after initially having my breath knocked away by the Giardiniera's overwhelming spiciness, my intestines soon settled down and I greatly enjoyed the melting concoction. The hoagie roll supporting this mammoth edifice of tender roast beef and embellishments nicely sopped up the au jus, and sank under the heat. The Chicago Dog that accompanied the Big Beef was a classic all-beef Hot Dog with a snap, rounded out with Emerald Green Relish, White Onions, Sport Peppers, and Yellow Mustard. For purists no ketchup is allowed on Chicago Dogs! Crinkle-cut French Fries added to my enjoyment of the meal.

I ordered the chili cheese dog, and I was a little disappointed. The hot dog itself was good, but I wasn't the biggest fan of the chili--maybe I just chose the wrong option.

The atmosphere also added to the experience. It had a nice American charm that made the visit even better. Overall, this place was great, and I definitely look forward to coming back.

The first visit was because they offer a discount for county employees, and it's very close to the Registrar of Voters. I sort of relived my first experience recently, in the sense that their onion rings, while very good, are much too much. Especially as an add-on. For me the portion isn't a good value. Fortunately their burgers are really good during daytime hours. I noticed, at least at the University location they reheat pre-cooked burgers in the evening and they taste burnt, consequently. I'm not suggesting that occurs here, but it has curbed my after 8pm dining habits. I do, however, like the large clean dining area, and more than ample parking. The bathrooms are also always clean, so props there. A good small local chain, there's definitely variation between locations, but this one is well managed. Only 3 stars? It's more about QPR with burgers and sandwiches. I imagine their breakfast is as good as other restaurants in the area.

On top of that, they didn't even have all the drinks they advertised. To make matters worse, when we were leaving, they didn't have proper takeout containers. Instead, we were given a small bag (meant for a cookie) to hold a chicken sandwich - size of a breast - which was pretty inconvenient. I also asked for grilled onions, but they were barely cooked and didn't add much to the meal. Overall, I would not recommend this place. There are definitely better options out there for the price and experience.
