    Juan Miguel's offers great service and an overall decent dining experience. Pricing is a bit higher than the average Mexican restaurant. My wife and I started off with some drinks, the blueberry lavender margarita and the mango sunrise. The first thing that came to mind when I tried the former was "Mexican long island." The mango sunrise was delicious, and one of the better margaritas I've had locally. As for the food, we began the meal with complimentary chips and salsa and bowls of chicken tortilla soup. The chips were a bit stale. I order chicken tortilla soup most times it's on a menu, and this one was solid. For our appetizers, we got Miguel's nacho grande and a deep fried flour taco. Of these, I definitely preferred the nachos over the taco. I also preferred the flour chips from the nachos over the regular corn chips. For our entrees, my wife got cheese quesadillas, and I got the trio fajita. The quesadillas were run-of-the-mill. The trio fajita includes chicken, shrimp, and steak, and is quite a hearty dish. For dessert, we got the flan, which was to die for. My 3 favorite dishes from the meal were the soup, the nachos, and the flan. I would rather drive down to Mexicantown to get my fix of Mexican, but Juan Miguel's is a spot I would go back to.

    I always love going to Juan Miguel's. Our food was fresh and the margaritas tasted great. Our server was super nice and welcoming and the ambiance was calming. They had live music playing: a man playing guitar instrumental Christmas music. I forgot to take a picture of it but I also ordered the fried ice cream. I definitely recommend the wet burrito and fried ice cream because they are both tasty and portioned well.

    We have tried this restaurant in the past and remember it being pretty good. I don't know if today was an off day or what happened but the food just wasn't very good. The veggie fajitas almost tasted sweet and had an off flavor. The beans were almost tasteless, and the salsa had a smoky flavor. Just wasn't the experience we were looking for. The service was great and the food came super fast. The music was almost so loud it was hard to hear our conversation. Not sure we will try again.

    I've been to this place so many times and don't know why I've never given the 5 star review it deserves!!! I've never had a bad meal or a bad experience!!! Always have had wonderful service and there's a guy who appears to be the manager...maybe he's actually Juan Miguel!!! He comes around and checks to make sure all is well. Their fajitas are amazing the fire goes up to the ceiling!!!! I've had taco salads...burritos..all great! This time I tried the fish tacos and they didn't disappoint...fresh cod prepared perfectly. My date had the Hungry Burro...very good. All around one of my favorite, nice Mexican restaurants in the area. Always clean and welcoming.

    Best Mexican around. The chips are served warm. The staff is very friendly, helpful and accommodating. This chicken tortilla soup is insane!!! The birria tacos were delicious. So tender and flavorful. They don't skimp on the portions. The waitress surprised us with fried ice cream and singing to help celebrate my friend's birthday.

    First time here and we had a great time ! Super friendly staffs! The prices are incredibly reasonable for almost 2025, the portions are huge ! The house provided sample margaritas, but the size was big enough as normal drink! We will definitely come back again, I can't believe I just discovered this place now ! It's freaking awesome! Love it!

    Went here with my family on a Saturday. Pretty busy! The bar had the games on if you wanted to eat there. Otherwise, you can get a table. The dining area was busy, but there was plenty or room. I ordered the fish tacos, which come as 3 tacos, rice, and beans. The waiters brought in the fajitas and ignited them as a little show for us, kinda like how they light saganaki in Greek restaurants. I didn't expect that in a Mexican restaurant. Otherwise, I'd get a video. Nice portions as well. Would go again.

    Muy Bueno. Someone…read moreelse posted that if you are used to mainstream Mexican food. Mi Pueblo Express may surprise you. Let me tell you, if you want some authentic Mexican Food? Add this restaurant to your list. Visit soon and enjoy the food.

    I suppose this is the rare instance where I'm glad I did not read the reviews before I ate here…read more We've been to the original in Detroit many times, but had not yet tried this place. Tonight was the right time to change that. They make very good use of the small footprint this place has. There is ample seating, if I counted right there's something like 12 tables and five or six high top options. Their primary business is carry out of course, but we found it nice to relax at a table and enjoy the ambience a little. Neither of us had a drink but we made a note of the full bar including a variety of margaritas. I'm sure they are well prepared. The somewhat limited menu is actually kind of a good thing. It means that most of their items can be brought out quickly. My wife and I both had tacos. She went with steak, and I went with pastor. Both were perfect and very well prepared. I was especially pleased at how favorable mine were with nice fresh onion and cilantro. The refried beans were also terrific, not too chalky or cakey but not too greasy either. I didn't care for my rice, but my wife enjoyed it. We also each had a flan for dessert. It was presented in a plastic container, but again this place is intended primarily for carryout. The flan was delicious and tasted freshly made. The staff were all in their young 20s but were all very friendly and accommodating. I'm looking forward to coming back here soon.

    Thoughts on a Monday afternoon. Most booths taken - no big parties or tables taken…read more First thought: Why is this menu so complicated?! Horrible service: 3-4 Waitresses on staff. All working "alone". You have to ask for everything. Water. Straws. Napkins. Chips. Refills. With 3-4 waitresses walking around, why not work as a team?! Chips/Salsa/Cheese: Not house made/fresh. Just under a warmer. Food was okay, they ran out of Carnitas (Pork). I'd prefer to go to other Mexican establishments in the area. Birria tacos barely had any meat. When you watch workers walk over the same crumbled up napkin on the ground near the "bar"over and over, clearly no one cares or pays attention! Also, I found it odd that they didn't have a designated area for their personal waters. They just had it all over the bar counter. Very disappointing!

    Terrible service and rude staff! I went here to pick up an order for a customer (delivery service)…read moreand the young man stated that the printer was broken....so it seemed like he didn't know the order. He wasn't being clear of what I needed to do as the delivery driver. I started to call the customer to get the order and clarify that their food was not ready when an older man came over with an attitude as if I was the one causing a problem. I do not control YOUR lack of a printer or getting a proper order from a customer for your food! As I further attempted to get the order from the customer, the older man started shooshing me...one thing I will not tolerate is rude staff at any establishment, I would NeVER spend my money here!

Then when I went to pick up the order, I saw the row of sauce bar, all arranged from mild to hothothot, with to-go plastic cups and lids. This was a variety, not all just red and green! There was one with avocado, another with pineapple, all different sauces. At home, we tried each salsa, and neither of us could decide which one(s) we like the best. The tacos were addictingly good and a bit of a problem: I'll have to have both kinds of tacos next time, but still want to try other things on the menu. But then, as my husband said, then, we'll have to have everything else we tried, and I we shouldn't really have one of everything on the menu each time! The chips - they must have made them, as they were perfection, what you knew chips should be like but never had it, until now. Perfect beans, some still whole, some mashed, complex luxe flavor cooked in, could have a meal of beans and chips. Well, with the guac, which is the best in the entire Metro area. Where have they been my whole life? 100 stars.
