Traveling across Kansas. Hotel in Russell, Kansas. After 6 hours on road... pulled in for a night. San Juan Mexican Restaurant was reviewed well. I see why after eating there. It was excellent authentic Mexican food. I ordered #7 combination Chicken Enchilada with Chile Relleno Rice & Beans. The Chile Relleno was filled with cheese and taste great on their chips! Cleared my plate! Yum. Their chips are made in house and are excellent! Salsa is mild tomato base good for those that don't want heat. I asked for house hot sauce and it didn't disappoint, great smoky flavor with right amount heat! Not too hot, not weak!
I ate almost all hot sauce he brought. Yum!
Mom ordered #1 combination, 2 enchiladas and a taco. She enjoyed her food. We ordered guacamole for the chips... it was so good we ordered another one! That tells ya it was really good! Thursday $3.99 margaritas... I wanted one but decided against it. Two other guests had them and said they were good! If you're in the area it's definitely a must stop in! You will NOT regret it!

Got a burrito and the tequito mexicano. Everything was just horrible. Everything tasted real earthy and just nasty. The meat seemed like it was old, sorry but would NOT recommend.

Unfortunately, my experience here was disappointing. The food, especially the meat, was quite dry, bland, and seemed overcooked. There were also several flies around our table, which made the meal uncomfortable. Service was just okay — no one checked on us or offered drink refills until another dish arrived. The portion sizes were generous, but overall the quality and attention to detail just weren’t there. I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for a good Mexican dining experience.

I stopped for takeout after a long day of driving. The chicken fajitas salad was great. Not much lettuce, but that was fine. It was filled with broccoli and mushrooms. I got the cooked version which was a great choice. It’s plenty for dinner and lunch tomorrow (although I tempted to eat more since it is so good).

Holy god, this was unbelievably bad... We pulled up and ignored the first red flag: a giant jet black flood of grease running from the roof exhaust down the entire roof and into the parking lot.

Nothing was fresh. The food was obviously frozen for a VERY long time and arrived at the table floating in fluid like it has been crudely reheated in a microwave.

I honestly think this was the worst food I have EVER had at a restaurant. My mind literally wouldn't even let me eat it, telling me I was risking sickness if I did.

I'm used to small Mexican restaurants like this being a little rough around the edges, but very fresh and tasty... This was horrendous.
