Great service, great food, and great atmosphere! I love getting food from here. I get food from here a lot! Would definitely recommend.
No! No! No! I honestly think that because the tip is already included the waitresses do not care to give you good service. Food took forever and it was cold. My husband ordered a corn tamale which came last and over 40 minutes and it was still frozen. I asked the waitress if it was supposed be cold and she said no I put it in the microwave, is it still cold? It took over 40 minutes for that? I can keep going but it would be too long to read.
I love the salmon it makes me like so yummy and I been to Columbia Heights
Couple Gringos here. We loved the vibe of the hood. We were looking for the Michelin Star place, but it was too busy so we gave Don Juan a try and it was our Hero today. We enjoyed the smaller portions (larger available), but didn't need to drag leftovers home. The flavors were authentic and service Mui Bueno! We will be back. So lovely..
Oh, we loved the hot sauce and turns out they sell it there. Enjoy!
Recommended dishes: Tacos, Burrito Platter
Definitely great place to go for good food, drinks, and Karaoke. A little on the the pricey side but so is the rest of the area.

Food was delish. Kind of an authentic scrappy atmosphere. Outdoor patio is great. It’s super casual and few people there who speak English (love it!) In short great authentic Mexican food in a totally casual restaurant. Me gusta. Love the giantmargatitas with mini bottles of booze poured into them.

8/3/24 1730 we sat outside, it started to rain. In the doorway as we were corralling in, a child pressed a slice of chocolate cake into the palm of my hand. It was one of those gifts from a higher power. There are many statements about similar acts in the christian bible. Like bird excrement on your cheek for good luck (for the elderly), like landing a complex bottle flip (for you zoomers out there). It was a free appetizer & also a dessert, forbidden and all over my left hand. My friend Tadeusz arrived then my husband who was having an art show that evening which we were asleep for the first half hour of cause we were stuffed with sumptuous burrito from Don Juan.

The food was delicious. service was fast. Servers were nice. great time. if i was local in DC, i’d go again. :)
Worst tacos I’ve had in DC :( meat and corn tortilla were dry. They did not taste authentic at all, surprising since the restaurant is in a historic Latino neighborhood.

The food was ok. I will admit that, however, the big killer for this place is that they will charge you thirteen dollars and fifty cents for a super small thing of guacamole. I could almost buy a bushel of avocados for that price. And it's not even like the guacamole is made in front of you. Absolute horrible rip-off.
They are literally targeting a market and price gouging it.

Came here on a Saturday afternoon for a birthday party/hang with about 15-20 friends and we could not have had a better experience!! The staff were so warm and kind and attentive. And they brought a little cake with candles and sang happy birthday. Very grateful for Don Juan!

Do not go here… I went here tonight and had the worst experience with the waitress. Her name is Joseline.
They charge you different a different price then what it is on the menu. They also charge you an automatic gratuity tip even for a party of 2. When I asked her why that was charge she just removed it and then placed the bill at the corner of the table without handing it back. It was at the other side where I was sitting at.
Extremely immature. I got only 1 coke, 2 pina coladas without alcohol and an orchata and it came out to almost 32 dollars.
Please compare your bill with the prices on the menu as they do not match.
The attached photo is after I asked her to remove the gratuity since she billed it automatically.
