The food was super flavorful and I feel it really stands out from most other restaurants I’ve been to. I wish we had somewhere this good where we live!“

“Taqueria Los Juan's is the very best Mexican restaurant in the Piedmont Triad. The food is fresh, perfectly seasoned. I can't wait to come back here and try everything on the menu. If you haven't tried Juan's don't hesitate, come by today you will be thanking me later.“

“I stopped by and had the birria tacos. What can I say? Oh my holy goodness! These are fantastic, no I mean FANTASTIC!! I will definitely be back! Many times!“

“Luna Playa Mexican restaurant is a hidden gem! Despite its small size, the food is top-notch, and the weekly drink specials add to the charm. Don't miss out on their delicious aguas frescas served daily. A must-visit spot for authentic Mexican cuisine!“

“Super authentic food! I’m Mexican and I am sooo picky about authentic restaurants. Even though there is no diner to sit in. You can take home some very delicious & authentic dishes. They are very kind, have a variety of salsas, from not spicy to really spicy. All types of meats and meals. They even offer different rice and beans and not a lot of places like these do. I used to drive to Winston-Salem. But I’m glad there is this one closer to home and much better taste. This review comes from the heart because I can’t believe I found a place that’s so authentic and good.“

“Sopes were delicious the birra tacos were on point and the rice and beans were delicious and the supreme burrito was delicious. If you haven't been here? You should come on down because their food was amazing the homemade tortillas didn't get soggy or fall apart they were on point. Thank you to the cooks and our waitress you all did an amazing job .“

“We went there only once. Nice environment, and we were greeted by a friendly host, and service was good.As far as food goes, we ordered 4 different items, the portion is extra large, but taste was mediocre. To be fair, we plan to visit again and try different items.“

“Hands down the BEST MEXICAN food in the Triad, the Piedmont and possible the state. Everything from the chips and salsa to the entrees and the most flavorful beans I’ve ever had… ever. It is soo good and consistently so. Thank you La Carreta!“

“A quaint family owned restaurant offering authentic Mexican food. We eat here at least once if not twice a week. Their cheese dip is the best around, and so are their prices. I’ve only ever had an issue with things being missing when I order take out; but they’ve been nice and fixed them.“

“Halibut Tacos were really good.. Margaritas were strong and not too expensive..“

“This is one of the very few remaining Mexican spots in the Triad that I had not visited, so today I checked this box. I was interested in 2 items on the menu - Pepino($2.99) and Birria de Res ($13.99). The interior is very brightly appointed, providing a festive feeling. And the Thursday drink special was a 16 ounce draft for $2.99, so I went with that. My beer and the complementary chips and salsa arrived momentarily. This is good salsa, with a bit more heat than most. The Pepino was soon on the table, as well. This is a very, very simple dish that I first had at a Mexico City central market in the late '70s. It consists of peeled, chilled cucumber slices, to which you add salt, chile flakes, and fresh lime juice, to suit your tastes . It is a very refreshing way to begin a meal in a warm day! The was as perfect start to my first meal here. The Birria de Res is simply the stew from which Birria Tacos gains their filling, and the liquid, or consommé, is part of this dish! The meat, in this instance beef, is marinated, then slow cooked in a red chile broth until falling apart tender. This dish was perfect - huge portion of very tender, very flavorful shredded beef which you top with chopped cilantro and white onion - and I like to add lime juice and Mexican hot sauce - and occasionally I will get side orders of sliced jalapeños and/or grilled onions. It comes with your choice of tortillas so you can build your own Birria tacos if you so choose. This was a very nice first experience here, the service was first class, and I was given a small complementary dessert - kinda cool I thought! This place is exactly why I rarely pass up a restaurant that maybe doesn't have the acclaim of others, or isn't authentic enough for some - you will find a gem that makes the occasional stinker a risk worth taking, maybe only a single dish or two - which I will continue to do.

“Great food. Fast and friendly lunch service. Quaint, cheerful atmosphere. Reasonable prices.“

“This is a very small taqueria/Mexican grill with a rather varied menu with few surprises but loaded with taste, so typical of the hole-in-the-wall places we search for continuously! Some housekeeping items: They open at 10AM (I approve of this), there is no table service, but your order will be brought to you if you are eating in, there is a nice salsa/condiment bar with a great version of Crudito (I also approve of this), the older gentleman who takes the orders will make sure you get what you want - Whew, that wore me out! I ordered Huevos Rancheros, Estiallados style - meaning the eggs are not scrambled or as the term Revueltas means, broken! The eggs, there were 3 of them, were cooked poached style rather than fried, and though they were cooked to the point where the yolks were a bit firm, the overall taste was good. The ranchero sauce was a bit different from the more traditional versions in that there was little tomato present, but there was plenty of sliced onions and a nice heat level! The sauce was layered over several tortillas which lacked any crispness that is normally seen. Overall the dish was very good even though not the most authentic I've tried in the area! The platter also contained refried beans and typical Mexican style rice, both of which were very good. Additional tortillas were included as well, bring the total to 5. The great, friendly service and the quality of the food will bring me back to try more items l. Ambiance - 3 Food - 4.5 Service - 5 Value - 4 ($10.99 for the dish)“
