Service was excellent. Friendly, prompt, didn't miss a thing Food was....good. Hot, fresh, fast Chips were a bit thick for my taste, but fresh and good So what is the let down? The cheeses Both the white cheese sauce and the yellow taste like they came from a 5 gallon pail Sadly the cheese really down grades the food, which otherwise was very good read more

Food always good for Tex-mex. Great service but place needs updating. It looks a little tired.

We came here for dinner since it was close to where we were camping at Caddo Lake and since we didn't have the bandwidth to bring camping food with us for cooking on this trip. It's very cute inside and the staff are all friendly. Quality is...about what you might expect in Jefferson, Texas for Tex Mex. The margs (frozen and rocks) were made with the sickly-tasting premixed stuff that tastes like sugary chemicals. The salsa was too runny and the guac did not taste fresh. Side of refried beans were the usual, as was the kid's quesadilla (which was only 1/2 the usual size!). The carne asada plate was actually more pleasant with a decent enchilada on it and red sauce on it as well as some greased up beans that tasted good but that felt like they were clogging your arteries the second they went down. We don't even want to think about where the meat was from! Don Juan's was about what we were expecting, so there was no disappointment. Three stars. They were nice and trying hard. read more

We tried this place for the first time with take out. $72 for 3 people and all 3 orders were incorrect. They forgot the nachos on the botanas. They put chili beans on the chimichanga instead of spicy queso. My seafood chile relleno was supposed to have tequila cream sauce, it had queso. I called and was told there was nothing they could do about it. He said he had written it down correctly and the kitchen/cook messed it up, not him. He then tried to tell me what nachos were, etc. I asked for a manager, there wasn't one. I asked for a supervisor and was told they don't have one of those either. He said I should bring everything back and let him check it out. Not driving 30 minutes there late at night in a thunderstorm. Food was not bad, not great, not worth $72. ***Called back the next day and spoke with a supervisor who offered to replace our order correctly upon our next visit.*** read more

Absolutely delicious. The dip with spinach that they bring out with the salsa and chips is amazing and completely unexpected. I had the street tacos with steak. The salsa they bring out with that is just as good. read more

Save yourself all the trouble and just go get a Mexican food tv dinner from Walmart. I tried here and didn't care for it. I went back and the same thing. Taco Bell and Don Juan's are the perfect pairing for low end food. read more

Once upon a time, this was a great place. Over the years it has lost its consistency "being good". l look for cleanliness and good food. It falls short on both. read more

Came in to get some dessert - stayed for some spinach quesadillas and were pleasantly surprised. Service was great - chips with salsa to begin with, then spinach quesadilla and finally some yummy fried ice cream. Good Mexican restaurant.in Marshall TX. read more

Very friendly, cozy restaurant. Cool music with lots of Mexican 80s hits like Luis Miguel. Surprisingly one of the best margaritas on the rocks I've had around too! Menu looks pretty diverse, lots and lots of options include enchiladas of some sort. Options for many different meats and seafood as well. The seafood enchilada was fantastic. Flautas were pretty good too. Portions were good as well. Staff were super nice too. A nice spot that we found incidentally and would def recommend for a nice relaxing and filling meal. read more

Food is amazing! Service is friendly! Margaritas are awesome! Definitely worth the stop!!

A chile relleno burrito is usually a flour tortilla with refried beans spread all around, add the Chile relleno that's filled with ground beef & cheese, then wrapped like a burrito and toasted on the outside!!! read more

Can you rate lower than a 1? Service awful. Food was awful. Waitress was nice but she was on here own and it was like her third day! Poor girl. Food was bland and just drenched in queso. No bueno! Don't wast your money. They make taco bell look great. read more

Best Mexican Restaurant in Marshall . Great price and giant portions . The food has quantity and quality . The waitress was amazing and super nice. Fast refills on drinks and sauce . 5/5. 10/10. Coming here again read more

Love the Chili Relleno when it's done correctly and served HOT...Last visit it was barely warm even!

Service is waay too slow food is marginal prices are high for small portions I will still go there sometimes but would generally prefer the Mexican food at a few other places. read more

JG score of 7.5/10 (+3 for the Fish Tacos and the chips and green sauce, 0 for atmosphere, +1 for price, +1 for fountain Diet Dr Pepper, +0.5 for service and +2 for we always look forward to going here) The Fish Tacos are our favorite of all the places we try and we have eaten many a fish taco. They are loaded and generous and best with the white ranch and not the thick creamy chipotle sauce. Other items are good there too including the fajita nachos, the pechuga chipotle or pechuga michoacana and a recent the enchiladas rancheras. This is all good Tex-Mex though....you probably can't go wrong with much that is here. The atmosphere is okay, nothing exceptional. They do have TVs to watch and many times tuned to the cooking channels. The price is always very good here and mostly under $15. They do have fountain Diet Dr Pepper. The service is mostly fast here. All of the wait staff have helped us at some point. They are nice and some more so than others. The young lady who is always smiling is our favorite but we like the older chip lady and the young Mexican waitress is always friendly. But really most all of them there are too. To say we will go back is an understatement. We go probably 1-2 times a month. In all, we have probably been here several dozen times. read more

Street tacos , sour cream enchiladas, and the steak tampocena are always on point. Service is always fast and friendly. I go probably once a week. read more

This review is in need of an update. I believe, as do many other that I have talked to, that Don Juan's has slipped significantly in quality in recent months. I can't put my finger on what has changed, but the food, in general, seems less fresh and less tasty. The service is still OK (although their best witness Shenna is no longer there). But it's in danger of dropping to two and a half stars in my book. read more

So underwhelming. Ordered the shrimp dish and beef enchiladas. Shrimp was meh and enchiladas were salty. Two stars for the friendly lady who served us chips and salsa. read more

We were traveling and tired of the typical Freeway fair so found this little gem to eat dinner. The tamales were soft and full of flavor. The wait staff was friendly and attentive. Great experience. read more

One of the best Mexican food places I have had to eat, the food was very good, waiteress was on the ball and the owner was very nice. Bravo, what a pleasure it was to have eaten here! read more

Good food. Fast service. Chips and salsa are fresh-flavorful but not too spicy!

The food is amazing and very tasty, the chips and salsa is what I compare other establishments too. The staff is very polite, and very helpful frankly it's my favorite Mexican food restaurant ever been to, and trust me I've been to many restaurants nationwide try to find something that even compares to this place! I highly highly highly highly recommend this place you will not be disappointed! read more

Loved this little Mexican restaurant. Service was great and food was very good and portions were quite big. Favorite of the whole meal was their complimentary creamy green sauce that comes out with the chips. Would good back! read more

Pretty typical Tex-Mex, from my limited one-time experience. However, they have a special deal on (as of July 19, 2011) that if you say "I HEARD IT ON QXFM" you will get a free order of Sopapillas. read more

I eat at Don JUANS about twice a month. Good food, great service at a fair price. The cheese enchilada covered in beef fajita meat is the best. read more

Food came out cold...took 15 minutes before she came to table to ask if we needed anything after she put the food on our table and took off to the back. Fajitas not sizzling at all...plus no tortillas with fajitas. Chicken chimichanga came out with beef ...2nd time came out with chicken and room temperature..3rd time wife did not eat it. Tried to slip us regular caso instead of white caso and I know for a fact she knew it was wrong. Refried beans with fajitas were almost black and swimming in grease...everyone else's beans were almost white....wtf. rolled the dice and crapped out. read more

Awesome food and fast service! A must visit if you like Mexican food!

I love the food at Don Juan's. I love Sheena at Don Juan's. I don't, however, love the cockroaches at Don Juan's. Been there the last two times in a row, and they've been crawling up the dining room walls. If I want Don Juan's, I'll go to the one in Jefferson. read more

Great food. Very fast. Two of the best waitresses in the industry work here, and will take great care of you.

1-4-16 Ordered side of guacamole $1.50 they sent out the large order $4.50 . I sent it back and they sent back the smaller order ( waitress did not understand english very well ) Went to pay for it and they would not take it off , charged me the $4.50. We eat there three or four times a month and there are six to eight of us in the party. Will not be back. read more
