Juquila Restaurant: Reviews & Ratings
When I get my nails done a couple doors down I like to grab breakfast here. My favorite is the chilaquiles. The green ones have a real spicy kick to them which I love! During earlier hours there's usually a lot of seating and quick service. Their cafe de Olla is a perfect match to go with breakfast I have to have 2 cups minimum. I've had a lunch there twice and I would recommend stopping by to try if in the area. There's even patio dining in the back if you'd like to sit out there and enjoy fresh air, but it's close to the parking lot. The parking lot is behind the restaurant and is city owned so you have to pay. There's also limited meters out front.
Best taco Tuesday ever. I'm dying to try their mole but I'm addicted to their margaritas and tacos.
Been going here practically since they opened and now they have a full bar. Love everything about this spot.
My favorite hidden gem on the west side. The food always hits and the happy hour marg prices cannot be beat. The workers here are very nice as well. The wet burritos are so so good!
The fact that I found this authentic hidden gem on the Westside of all places is crazy! The Al pastor tacos are FIRE it's better than king tacos'! I'll even go a step further and say it's better than el taurino's in ktown (IFYKYK). Juquila's is the Greatest Mexican Oaxacan food, period!!! It's legit real Mexican food, not that white boy flavorless crap scattered all throughout the westside, they pack the meat, onions, ciltantro, lime, salsa! Old school east la kind of food and the fact that they're on Westside! I scored!!!!!! No more far af drives to the east side. I love you juquila!!!
I'm so glad I live right down the street from this place. I stopped in the other night because I was craving a wet Al pastor burrito and some chips and salsa. The place was pretty clean inside and I was greeted right away. She gave me chips and salsa within a couple minutes of sitting down which was perfect. They have a back patio also which gets pretty lively. I had a passionfruit drink with my dinner which was so good. Can't wait to come back here for happy hour!
