La Juanita - Mexican restaurant in Leeds - 1345 Vivian St SW, USA

Great food!!! Extremely nice server too. They were extremely understaffed but our server took good care of us. No alcohol served but the food was so good it makes up for the lack of drinks. I had the taco tour which was a mixture of 13 different tacos. I will be going back to this place very soon.

Wow. Our family of 6 recently stopped in to dine here after seeing good reviews. We were all wanting Mexican, but something different than the usual we have around. We wanted authentic, quality, real deal Mexican - and this place did not disappoint! We had several different tacos & tamales and it was all incredible. You can taste the difference. We met Maria, the owner who was so helpful and accommodating. You can tell she cares about the restaurant and the quality of food she is serving. If you want authentic Mexican and to support an awesome family, check this place out!

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). As you can see the sopes are somewhat dense so 2 would be perfect for a decent-sized meal. 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 the chance :)

A little bit out of the way but what a great find! The food is delicious, the service is prompt, friendly and attentive. The menu is refreshingly simple and everything is very tasty. The atmosphere is very authentic and reminds me of several taquerias we visited in Mexico. If you’re in Leeds and have a taste for tacos, La Juanita is a great choice. We’ll definitely come here again,

I lived in Los Angeles for 15 years, so when it comes to Authentic Mexican Food, my standards are high. The food and service at La Juanita is the best I have had in the Greater Birmingham Area. The food is just as good here as you will find most places in LA!

The best steak street tacos! And their toppings bar is on another level. Their orange sauce is definitely my favorite and their pickled red onions are a must. My Apple Watch now suggests going to La Juanita when I start my car lol! Great place!

This truly authentic Mexican restaurant is an absolute gem! We had some of the best tamales we've ever eaten, and the al pastor pork was amazing! You can tell all the ingredients are super fresh, even down to the homemade flavored waters. The restaurant itself is so quaint, and the staff was so friendly and welcoming.

This is some of the BEST food that my husband and I have had in a very long time!! Everything is homemade and you can definitely tell. We cannot wait to come eat here again!
