Don Juan Restaurant

NELSON J FLORES 5 months ago

We have been coming to Don Juan Restaurant for over 13 years, and the food is always consistent, delicious, and fresh. The owner, Don Alberto, is a kind person who treats both his employees and customers very well. The environment is good, clean, and they play good music. If you are looking for good Tex-Mex food, we highly recommend Don Juan Restaurant. Our favorite dishes are cocktail de camarón, sopa de res, red snapper fish, the chicken burrito, and pupusas revueltas. Try it, friends!

Atmosphere was nice with the music. However, the waitress didn’t really seem like she wanted to be there. I ordered Fajitas and specifically asked if it came with yellow Mexican rice. My food comes with some Damn White rice. Make it make sense. And then the foolishness really started when I asked the waitress about the rice and she said it was yellow rice. Y’all all know there is a clear distinction between yellow rice and white rice right. I would’ve much rather preferred they said they didn’t have yellow rice from jump! Fajita was good. Service as meh

I was a little disappointed with the food. it seems like they use the cheapest ingredients and canned food. Rice and beans weren't the best, and we randomly ordered cheese dip. I'm not sure if it was on the menu or not, but it wasn't queso. Just canned jalapeno cheese. The guacamole and salsa were good, nothing to write home about. We got fajitas, the chicken was simple, and steak was good but fatty. And as you can see in our pictures, mainly came with onions. Not many peppers, unfortunately. Our drinks were okay but just seemed like a pretty made mix. The prices are a little cheaper but still ran 2 people $100 with gratuity.

Hands down, best burritos in DC. I've been coming here for a very long time and can't recommend it enough. Love the owners too - it's a family business and they're all so kind. Can't beat the location either, conveniently located and they have a quick carry out side, a sit down side and an outdoor patio.
