La Juanita — Restaurant in Leeds

A local restaurant serving phenomenal food at a great price. So happy we found this place! Feels really cozy and cheery. Honestly one of the best Mexican meals I’ve ever had. Food came quickly. The staff was so sweet and helpful. We got tacos and sopes (first time ever trying the latter. The base patty/shell was basically soft like the outside of a tamale, but thicker).

They had toppings like pickled onions and slaw which you could fill up on the side. We tried chorizo, chicken, and Al pastor. All of it was excellent! The beans tasted fresh & hand mashed, and the rice had a great flavor too. I’m glad we stumbled upon this restaurant and would love to come back. Definitely give it a try if you get...

So lucky we randomly decided to stop here to have some food on our way up north! The food is AMAZING!!

I had the pleasure of talking with the owner, Ms Yesenia… who made our visit even more pleasurable

Ms Yesenia and ms Letty… thank you for the amazing food...

I wish I could rank them higher. They just need to get better and this place has so much potential. The food is amazing. The service however lacks so much. The service is incredibly slow so be prepared to wait minimum 45 minutes to even get food. Sometimes they give you chips and salsa for appetizers sometimes they don’t. The server never asks if you would like a refill. The drinks don’t even have lids so it’s a pain if you would like to take it on the road back. The food is okay small portions. Overpriced. The elote was hard when we ordered it. The rice was lukewarm. The only thing they have going for themselves are the house made tortillas. During the summer, it’s also incredibly hot inside and they refuse to...
