I came in hungry so I was ready for a solid meal. The place has street parking and it's ample. The vibe in this place is pretty good,played decent music and the service was really good-our server was that perfect balance of attentive while letting us enjoy our dinner in peace if that makes sense. My party ordered various margaritas for dinner-while I ordered an Old Fashioned($9.00). I can say for sure this was the most full Old Fashioned I've ever had,pretty stiff and was probably my favorite part of dinner. We also ordered chips and salsa($4.00)-Flavorless salsa and bland tortilla chips. I ended up ordering their namesake dish the Flying Burrito($17.00) which features Skirt Steak, Chicken, and Creole Shrimp. The steak and chicken were fine, but the shrimp was a completely different story. It was extremely fishy and had a rubbery texture that made it nearly impossible to enjoy. I instantly thought, "Yep, this is probably going to make me sick." I checked the walls and this place has won many local awards so maybe they were just having a bad night but yeah didn't love much about this place outside of the Old Fashioned. read more

Came in for a late lunch and wanted some good nachos. I had heard about this place so we decided to give it a try. Once we arrived, we were greeted and seated promptly. Our server came over and took our drink order. She then came back and asked if we had been here before and gave us a little history about the restaurant. She then told us about the menu and gave us some good recommendations. We had the nachos grande and the jerk chicken nachos. If you're not hungry, don't come here! The nachos were massive!!!! All the ingredients were fresh and they were hot. The only down fall was that the cheese needed to be melted more because it was a little gummed up and made it a little difficult to eat. Also, there wasn't enough queso and that made the nachos dry. Fix these things and that will be perfect. We also had the street corn dip and it was just corn with no type of sauce or cheese. That would have taken it over the top. read more

Our 1st choice for Creole Mexican. Best steak fajitas anywhere! I've never been a fajitas fan but Juan's steak fajitas are at another level. Service is always good. I would suggest however new or reupholstered seating. Some have more duct tape than material. read more

So after the Maguire's Run, we grabbed some food at this spot. When I say the hit a homerun on everything, they blew away a group of 15 ppl some of whom had never dined there before. A critical part to our experience was our server Heyden. He offered so much honest and insightful information that our food experience was exactly what we were looking for. I chose to try something new and different and went with the crawfish ettouffe. I never tried crawfish before and it was a season menu item. I was so happy with my choice and I cleaned the plate. Every dish is amazing and you won't be disappointed. 10/10 read more

Juan's is a nice place off the beaten path to stop for a drink or to take the family out for a bite. Everyone working toward very friendly and prompt. The place has a nice vibe to it. The Cadillac Marg is good but the Top Shelf Marg is best. The Breakfast Burrito #1 and Chorizo con Huevos Burrito are both fantastic and breakfast is served all day. Prices are steep but it's downtown Pensacola so it's expected. Over great choice. read more

I was out with a friend celebrating Juneteenth and we were really just looking to get out of the heat and rest our legs from walking a long distance. Food was not the first thing on our mind when we looked at the menu. I ordered water and saw that they had lemonade and also strawberry lemonade. I always go for fruit flavored lemonade so I ordered one. Now the flavor of the lemonade didn't have much strawberry for my taste but it was still refreshing nonetheless. I have to say the waiter who waited on us was very patient with me. I was perusing the menu for a while and every so often the waiter would come and check to see if we were alright. I finally picked the Jerked Nachos. The nachos were really good. It was jerk chicken but it also had some mango salsa to top it off. I didn't know what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised by the flavor. I would definitely come back. read more

My third visit with Juan's Flying Burrito. I'm very embarrassed to say that the last I visited here that I was too busy scarfing down my burrito. But this time - I took pics. Our waitress was amazing! Really, I hope management appreciates how hard they work for every customer! So, while I remembered to take pics of the food - apparently I didn't take pictures of the establishment, and for that - I'm so sorry! This place is so cute. With a bar - tv mounted - it just feels like home - you know? And as picky as I am about my food - this was 100% delicious. Please give Juan's Flying Burrito a chance bc you'll walk away very happy! PS: The Queso was bar none the best - ever, but it's got a kick to it! read more

Food was good but the place needed an update. Cracked seats in the booths. Street taco delicious!

This was our first visit here and was not disappointed. We were greeted immediately and informed today was taco Tuesday which meant all street tacos were $2 instead of $4. Th place looks like a little hole in the wall place with a laid back atmosphere. There was a steady crowd as were there at lunch but the noise level was comfortable so as you could hear your table companion. I had the Juanita Bowl and it was fresh and the vegetables were steamed perfectly. My friend had the street tacos and he stated they were really good. He said the Chorizo was the best. Our server was on his "A" game with our water and table service! We will be back! read more

April, 14, 2026.....When Juan's Flying Burrito, opened several years ago, in Pensacola, it was located at the end of Gregory Street, not far from Pensacola Hardware. I drove by many times over the years always wanting to stop in and try it. Then one day, it was suddenly no longer there, and a Pizza restaurant had taken its place. A few days ago, I saw an ad on FB for Juan's and shared the menu and pics of the food, from their website, with my girlfriend. That's when also noticed the address of their current location. The pics and the descriptions of their dishes were very appealing, so I urged my girlfriend to eat there, and we did today. I ordered the Flying Butrito, and my girlfriend ordered the shrimp quesadilla. I also had a shrimp street taco, as it was $2.00 street taco Tuesday. I had the sweet iced tea, and my girl had a specialty mixed drink, Frozen Lemon Berry. We also ordered the chips and salsa. I was anxious to see and taste the unique fusion flavors of Creole, Cajun, Mexican, and Jamaican, that Juan's is known for. To be totally honest and forthright with my dining experience at Juan's, I was mostly "Disappointed"!! The iced tea was great southern orange pekoe sweet tea, but my girlfriends Frozen Lemon Berry drink had a taste similiar to unsweetened grapefruit juice, with mojito mix, and a splash of gin stirred in. To say the least, it was completely undrinkable. The $2.00 Street Taco, wasn't worth a even a dollar....!! Not flavorful and the tiny shrimp or diced shrimp chewed like rubber. The chips and salsa were awesome, and our wonderful server even made sure we knew we could reorder as much as we wanted,!! Which was nice..!! Now to the main entrees...My order was TOTALLY dissapointing, as the Flying Burrito was a giant grilled flour tortilla wrapped stuffed with pinto beans(in lieu of black beans) and yellow rice....did I mention that there was suppose to be skirt steak, creole chicken, and "GULF" shrimp, included in the burrito....Guess what.....there was NO SKIRT STEAK, there was only 2 SMALL BEAN SIZED pieces of chicken, only 3 TINY rubber pieces of shrimp, NO guacamole, NO cheese, and definitely NO salsa la fonda, in the entire, 2+ pound burrito, which altogether was less than a 1/2 an ounce of the overall weight of the wrap. The large flour tortilla, the beans, and the rice, accounted for 98% of the total weight of the Burrito..!! My girlfriend's Luau Quesadilla, was definitely more tasty and flavorful than my Flying Burrito, however, once again, the so called "Gulf" shrimp were only diced pieces of small shrimp, and there were very few of these chewy over cooked rubber consistency pieces of shrimp inside the quessadilla!!! In conclusion, our experience, at Juan's, was a food disaster!! Also, one most notable reference that Juan's uses in their menu descriptions is "Gulf shrimp".....What few pieces of small shrimp that were in our dishes, were definitely NOT "Gulf Shrimp"....The few little pieces they provided in our dishes, tasted like, and had the consistency of, shrimp that were flash frozen, Asian pond raised, and most likely bought through a seafood wholesaler. The only thing positive i will say about Juan's, is that the venue is nice, the server we had was pleasant and very understanding, and she even took that undrinkable drink, off of our tab, and also directed us to contact the manager about the food quality. So that's what I'm doing now, through Yelp....I expect this kind of bait snd switch from tourist trap restaurants out on the beaches, but not from a downtown Pensacola venue. If this is the way that Juan's does business and continues to operate, then I won't be back, and will deter my family, friends, and acquaintances, from dining there.... I'm including a couple of pics, provided from Juan's Flying Burrito website, of the two main entrees we ordered. The first is the Luau Quesadilla @ $14.00 and the second is the Flying Burrito @ $15.00. These pics look nothing like the food we were served, today!!! TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE...SUBSTANDARD FOOD QUALITY(NOT "GULF" SHRIMP) AND PATHETIC QUANTITIES OF MAIN INGREDIENTS! read more

Blackened Fish Tacos are quite tasty, even the cilantro sauce was good, and I'm in the "don't like cilantro" camp. Just the tacos alone are filling enough without overdoing it. Indoor and outdoor seating are both nice, and servers are patient and attentive. read more

Really good burrito I ordered for takeout. Only thing is I can't justify the price. Like the burrito is awesome, but no chips or anything for how much you pay is absurd IMO. Also the presentation was a little iffy for a pickup order(I may have moved the bag around on accident to be fair) , but no impact on the flavor. read more

LOVED the food here. Their menu is amazing, so many things to choose from. I never like having to pay for chips and salsa at a Mexican restaurant, but that was the only downside of this place. Cute insides and the service was excellent. Next time we'll get the nachos. They looked LOADED. read more

We have already visited Juan's a few times, but I'm finally getting around to writing a review. The food here is great and so is the staff - go to spot for southwest grub with a southern spin! I have tried several items here and they have all been good. Their salsa, queso, guac and bean dip combo (Quatro) is great for an app. I had the crawfish enchiladas from the seasonal summer menu and they were excellent. The Luv it Bowl is a perfect size and the ingredients are seasoned well. They have a wide variety of burritos, tacos and quesadillas with several veggie options. Service has been great each time and we have sat inside and on the back patio - both great ambiance. They don't have beer on tap and I hope that changes in the future. Excellent frozen margs and cans of beer in the meantime, which is just fine with me too. This place started out in New Orleans and has expanded to Pensacola. I'm really glad they are making a new home here and I know we will become regulars! read more

I really liked the food- we had tacos, burritos and a great salad. What I didn't like was the low key shaming the waitress did when one of our party ordered a bean and cheese burrito. Come on, take the order and don't try and make someone feel crappy for not ordering the surf and turf with a side of caviar. read more

Such good street tacos! I have only been here twice and have eaten the tacos. I want to try everything else eventually! Great service and great vibes overall! Will come back when I'm in town. read more

If you place a to-go order, you need to check every item. They can't get an order right. It's actually impressive how creative they can get an order wrong. It's like an art form. That's their only consistency. I will not be back. read more

So listen, this place is absolutely amazing! Let's start with the margaritas... btw's, happy hour is everyday from 2-6. Tall for a small and they are amazing!!! Best server ever, Chairty!!!

Juan's Flying Burrito, actually didn't take much thinking, it's fun. Good, meh, but fun. Juan's is a franchise out of New Orleans, or it's one of many. The burrito was massive, and the tacos are very good. The staff was great; however, I just was overly impressed with this Tex-Mex joint. read more

Ordered quesadilla and it was greasy and no salsa, lettuce or sour cream. Service was really slow. I won't visit again.

I really really wanted to love this place. We came by for an early dinner. The waitress I think kinda killed the vibe. We felt rushed. The Cadillac margarita didn't taste as good as I'd hoped, but it was a strong drink. The house margarita had more of a margarita taste. I was put off because I asked for no salt four times and the drink came out with salt on the rim. The salsa was chunky. My husband thought they added tomato to a jarred salsa. The queso also tasted jarred, but I liked it. I think both were different from the traditional Mexican recipes I've tried. The beef and fish tacos were very good. I can see why some people really enjoy eating here. read more

I have been to this restaurant 3 times, and each time is better and better. Jess made us feel right at home with her superb customer service, and Josie is the best bartender ever!!!

Food has always been consistent but this particular evening our overly sensitive eavesdropping bartender decided she was offended by MY conversation that I was having with friend which she was not part of and preceded to tell the manager to who confronted us and asked us to leave the establishment! Over what you might ask. . The border and women's sports! Having a conversation in a public place is not a crime and being in the service requires tolerance and respect of patrons! Complete ignorance and will never step foot in this place and will tell all my clients of this experience because I am in the service industry myself. . Hairdresser! Word of mouth is the advertisement and/or downfall! read more

On our way out of Pensacola we decided to stop by here to grab some quick food. A local had recommended the spot so we went in and got chips and queso with a burrito. The burrito was unique and spicy but in the best way possible. I was happy to get a unique taste that stood out from other burritos . The chips and guacamole were okay but the burritos really stole the show The friendly service also hit the spot :) we felt very welcomed read more

Me and the wife stopped by for lunch and had a seat out front. Great atmosphere, great service and unique flavors. The chips were crispy and hot, drinks were good. I wish the meat was maybe a bit more of a grilled flavor than a simmered in spices flavor, but that is just a personal preference. Overall, I thought it was fantastic and we will continue to come back! Give it a shot! read more

Great experience at Juan's flying burrito. I ordered the flying burrito without black beans (allergy) and it was bursting with flavor and deliciousness! I'm excited to go back and try more of the menu. This place easily has my recommendation! Service was top notch. The waiter was responsive and quick to assist. The ambiance was cool. The staff seemed like they were chilling and ready for action. I came on a Monday during happy hour so I'm sure it's different when they're busy. read more

Was downtown for a meeting and stumbled upon Juan's Flying Burrito... so we decided to grab a quick bite to eat. It was Taco Tuesday and Happy Hour... what a perfect storm! $2 Street Tacos and $2.50 Tecate Beer? Ummm okay! We shared one of each (except for the tofu... nothing personal, just not my cup of tea)... and each one was super good! We also shared the Nachos Grande which had beef, chicken, cheese, beans, guacamole, salsa, sour cream, jalapeños, etc... chips were very good, and clearly home made. They also have a red salsa and a green salsa that really reminded me of the taco shops in California. Service was good... and they offer outdoor seating as well. read more

Really dig this spot if you like mission burritos, if you know what a mission burrito is then you'll want to come here, pretty sure it's the only spot as well that makes them, If you're not then you need to come by and get one. Food is really good and hours are good as well, the atmosphere is also pretty neat and you're usually sat pretty quick. Of note there's a cool spot to sit out back so check that out. For drinks they have a decent selection tequila, If you're sipping tequila fan like me then they could look to expand their selection of those types of tequilas, but overall it's a pretty decent selection. read more
