My recent dinner at Don Juan Restaurant was exceptional. The steak was cooked to perfection, tender and flavorful, and the salsa added a delicious kick to the meal. The vibrant atmosphere enhanced the dining experience.

Simple but delicious Mexican dishes. I had a shredded chicken burrito and every aspect of it was excellent. The atmosphere felt super authentic and the outdoor seating was wonderful.

Decided on this spot for takeout lunch today and was not disappointed. I got the chicken burrito platter for $17. Hearty meal with all the sides. The burrito had a nice cheesey sauce on the actual burrito which was different. Make it super moist. Seemed pretty quiet in both the restaurant and carry out section. Would deff recommend to give it a try if your in mount pleasant.

Not what I expected when I ordered this pan de pollo salvadoreño. ? lacked flavor and that freshness that a typical pan de pollo salvadoreño usually has. I’ll still to my usual of chimichanga next time.

Just my neighborhood TexMex spot. It’s been in the neighborhood for decades. I suggest the Steak Burrito wrap!Kid-friendliness: Kids high chair
Delicious, reasonable prices, friendly. They're patient and cooperative when I try to speak Spanish. Big menu. Fun atmosphere with a mural, tiki bar, deejay often, outdoor patio. Nice location facing the little plaza in the small commercial district of Mount Pleasant. Appears to be family-owned and been there a while. Go support them!

The pupusas were incredible and the guacamole was out of this world! Will definitely recommend. Also had an Horchata to drink which was delicious ??
I went for a ceviche, and it wasn’t good tested, very bad tested and big pices, no lime enough and salt, it tested liked uncooked fish.. I told to them but the chefs said that for, he was good and that I had to pay for it.. they won’t even asked me if I wanted change the food until they made me feel bad… I have been there before and the ceviche was very good but now is the worse ceviche that I have tried…

I have passed this place for years. Finally sat down and was throughly impressed. Fajitas were on point. Plantains cooked perfectly. My GF never had a corn tamale before, she now has a favorite new dish. The Papousas were my absolute favorite. Definitely a must return ???
