One of the best taco shops around. We’ve been eating here for 15 + years and the food is always on point. Their burritos, rolled tacos and quesadillas are our favorite items. Also, their green hot sauce is the best!

Quick service and friendly employee. I got a burrito for dinner and it was almost enough for two meals. Great location as I took my meal to the beach to watch the sun set.

Best Mexican food in Encinitas!!! Always come here when we are in town. Coming here is always a highlight of our trip! Can’t wait to come back!!! 🌯🌮

Best breakfast burrito you will ever have, hands down! The green sauce is to die for as well. Every time I’m in the area I make a visit. Sometimes I even order an extra for the next meal!

Went with bacon breakfast burrito as recommended by the kind man behind the counter and it was phenomenal… perfect ratio of ingredients and perfectly soft but toasty tortilla. Large but manageable size! Overall very satisfied and will be back!

Been eating here for 30 years, I grew up on this food and it still hits. There's a simplicity to it, it's the flavors I crave when I come home, and it's a flavor that I haven't found elsewhere. My favorite is to get both a carne asada burrito and a veggie burrito to split with someone so we can each have half of each.

Really good carne asada, carnitas and fish tacos. We have been going for years and never disappointed. Service is fast and food is good.

I've waited 15 years to try this place .. because I'm always rushing. Well, today I finally went in and had a meal. There is some front street parking, side parking and rear parking. There's also a bus stop less (101) than a block away but I walked to it from a nearby hotel. The notion of authentic food is obvious by the cashier's and cooks I had the opportunity to thank for such a delicious meal. I was fortunate enough to have my lunch to myself because no one was eating inside during my brief 1 hour there.. however there were non-stop to-go orders the whole time. I ordered my usual test food of Carne Asada Nachos and a Coke. The coke tasted like a coke should. It wasn't flat. The carne asada nachos were made with the exact amount of chips and fixings and meat. There was no chip eaten without something on it which is rare. Usually most places put too much chips. There was a good serving of guacamole, sour cream, unmelted cheese, pico de gallo and meat. It could easily feed 2 but I only ate 1x in the morning so this was my lunch and dinner. I opted for both red and green salsa .. which were both delicious. The red was slightly spicier but not too much. I have 1 before and 1 mid photos so you can see the balanced portions. In my opinion the cooks were nice and know how to cook in my humble opinion. The food was delicious and I'm definitely coming back tomorrow to test their breakfast burrito. I highly recommend coming in and trying their food. There's plenty to do in the area to walk off your meal afterwards. All in all .. definitely a monthly meal for me worth the extra 5 min drive from my office.

Visited here with a dear friend 9 years ago and he is no longer with us so we just relived memories. It was so delicious just as we remember. The neighborhood is so lucky to have Juanita’s!!
