Y'all. I get it. In the blocks around this restaurant, there are many options that may seem similar. I can promise you that most of them are okay. Truly. When you're looking at a tortilla with meat, cheese, and vegetables... well there are only so many ways to roll those dice and come out ahead. Here's the first difference: the menu. Sure. Still a tortilla, meat, cheese, and veg. But you're going to have even better options. My favorite is the Kamehameha 504. Or the BLAT. I mean, sure, still ingredients you know and love, but mixed up in a most delicious way. But now, and way more importantly, let's look at the staff here. I have yet to visit and have a horrible staff experience. Roger has been my prime go-to this week (just by coincidence) and he really epitomizes the amazing experience you can expect here. He knows the menu (drinks and eats) in every way he needs to, and can take what you ask and turn it into an amazing meal. He's worth every penny they pay him (and then some). So go, visit, and tip well. The staff here truly deserves i read more

Juan's Flying Burrito - Oak Street - A double margarita during happy hour. Highly recommend. - Cajun/Creole Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

We had a mixed experience here, but the food and the bar team really made the visit worthwhile. After a long day of walking, we stopped in for some drinks and a bite. The queso and chips were excellent, and we really enjoyed the beers. We shared the shrimp burrito, which was incredibly fresh and had a perfect little "bite" to it. A huge shoutout to the bartenders, who were incredibly hospitable and made us feel right at home. We also had a great experience with our server during a previous visit on Monday, April 20th around 6pm. However, the start of our night was a bit of a letdown. We originally wanted to sit at a table, but the young man at the front (athletic build) was quite unfriendly. He felt very cold and seemed to lack the hospitality and social skills we experienced from the rest of the staff. Despite the rocky start at the host stand, the quality of the food and the warmth of the bar staff saved the evening. We'll definitely be back for that burrito! Some feedback that I would have is to be transparent about happy hour pricing on a written menu. read more

We had a great time here. The service was great and my banh mi tacos were delicious. I also got a happy hour mojito. It was watery, but I'd give them another try. It's a bit brighter than other Juan's locations thanks to the windows and the white vintage tile flooring. read more

Great dining experience! Barkeeper takes care of your order, taking care to get it just the way you want it! Food is ALWAYS 10/10. Love this place! read more

The food, the staff, the bartenders, space is always awesome. Miss having this spot in my neighborhood because the Oak Street location is my fav. Great bang for your buck' read more

Went there for first time. Food was excellent. Pulled pork and Slaw and shrimp tacos were the best l've had, especially coming from the East. Trio dips were all homemade and so tasty. The Big Bowl was a meal in itself with avocado, strips of beef, potato fries, rices, cilantro. Service super professional and atmosphere was very authentic and a nice bar as well. Highly recommend this local spot read more

can't believe i haven't yet reviewed or taken a photo of anything i've eaten here, but this place is dangerous for my wallet. i've never had a bad dish here. the veggie punk burrito, the mission burrito, the tacos, the nachos, everything has been absolutely incredible. this is my favorite neighborhood spot and i will miss it dearly! read more

In the area and decided to do an online pickup order. The bartender greeted me upon walking inside. Received a decent amount of food for the price I paid ($20). I ordered the jerk chicken nachos & one beef street taco. The jerk chicken nachos were good, but boy oh boy that street taco was amazing!! Will definitely visit here again. read more

I have a lethal (anaphylaxis) allergy to shellfish and sea food. I made a mistake when I placed the order and forgot to remove the shrimp from the order. As soon as I realized I'd forgotten to ask not to include the shrimp, I called the restaurant and explained what happened. The young lady on the other end of the phone was so polite, understanding and caring. She even asked if it would be better if they cooked it on a separate griddle! I was so grateful she understood, I came by, picked up my dinner and went home to eat. I cut into the burrito, cuz I eat with a fork and a knife, and wouldn't you believe, an ENTIRE SHRIMP came out of the burrito. Needless to say, my confidence is shot! If I'd eaten that burrito "like a burrito", I'd be in the ICU right now. Not a safe place for folks who suffer from food allergies. So disappointing. read more

Juan's Flying Burrito - Oak Street - That right there is a SHRIMP! - Cajun/Creole Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

I didn't see any flying burritos ... except the one that flew into my mouth! I stopped in here on February 4th 2024 and grabbed a burrito to go (brought it over to Oak St. Brewery). It was Sunday afternoon and the place was packed! There was a wonderful energy to the place. I had their flagship Flying Burrito. It comes with grilled steak, shrimp, and chicken. It was very good, and more that one person should consume at one sitting. But, of course, I ate the whole damn thing! I couldn't put it down! I can't wait for my next visit! read more

Juan's Flying Burrito - Oak Street - Steak, shrimp, and chicken all rolled into one delicious burrito! Enjoyed it to go at Oak St. Brewery. - Cajun/Creole Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

First visit to this location. The service was attentive and friendly, and the queso dip was pretty good. The rest of the food didn't quite measure up to the standards I've experienced at their other locations. The rice and beans had a strong cumin flavor, and the rice itself tasted a bit old. It may have just been an off day. read more

This was my first stop for dinner after touching down in New Orleans. My Airbnb was in walking distance and almost everything was closed for the night. The staff was incredibly helpful to a new visitor who just reached New Orleans. I sat by the bar and the bartender was a fun guy to talk to. He gave me recommendations about where to go in the city and how to get around. It provided a fun environment to hang out and enjoy my meal. I ordered the Flying Burrito with a house margarita. I have never eaten a burrito with steak, shrimp, and chicken all together. I have got to say it provided an interesting taste. The burrito was very large and I was able to take leftovers back with me for later. I liked their Fly Dranks menu. It was very clever title for all their different options. I enjoyed my time at Juan's Flying Burrito and would definitely come back. read more

The service was on point. The nachos were so good. The place does not have a lot of atmosphere, but you go for the food and drinks.

So I got the steak tacos. I SHIT YOU NOT they were un chewable. Like I almost broke my tooth and then on top of all this she overcharged me for everything. read more

The salsa wasn't amazing. That is the only negative thing I can say about this place. Ordered all the dips because I couldn't decide. Bacon azul quesadilla was incredible. Double margs since it was happy hour. I wish I could have eaten more because everything sounded so good. I want to go back and drown in a plate of nachos. And our server was the best, attentive but never felt cloying. read more

Dang! I just had the sickest burrito I've ever had. The flying burrito was of the chain good. Have heard about Juan's for years but living here I was never much of a Mexican food kinda guy. That was until I ended up in Colorado where I became a huge Mexican food fan. So now I'm back home and decided to try a local well established Mexican restaurant. Well, Juan's FB did not disappoint. Highly recommend this restaurant if you're looking for great Mexican. read more

I was in the area for an event and decided to pop in. It happened to be Taco Tuesday. Cool place to unwind. Great atmosphere and cool location. I wasn't all that hungry, so I just snacked on some chips and queso and had a Corona with lime. I will definitely indulge more when I return. Per their menu, they have a wide array of delicious sounding dishes and an ample supply of alcohol. I enjoyed my queso dip, and you can't go wrong with Corona and lime. The bartender Steven was great. read more

We came during Happy Hour and got the margs. Them boys are delicious and strong!! Whew, I was turnt after two of them. Our sever was awesome. The $2 Tuesday street taco deal was really great, too!! Nice-sized flavorful tacos with a kick. We loved sitting outside on the patio as well. I totally recommend coming here! read more

Cute little place. Has a bar where they will serve food. Guacamole was fantastic!! Food was so good. Definitely give this place a whirl. Just keep in mind parking is a little tougher. Add a few extra minutes but it's definitely worth it. read more

I don't like to start a review on a negative note, but there truly wasn't a thing I found positive. The place was dirty, especially the bathroom and kitchen. The service was OK. The food was mediocre at best. The drinks were just bad. I ordered a cucumber margarita and asked if I could use the bars muddle because all they did was throw a few slices of cucumber into a margaritas. The place just needs a lot of TLC!!!​ ​ read more

The food is okay. I was waiting for my food at the bar, and the waiter thought it was okay to keep getting in my personal space touching my arms and talking in my face. He kept trying to talk to me when he should've been tending to other guests or at least just leaving me alone since I wasn't someone he was serving. He was eating over the guests food and pulling chips from the baskets and shoving them in his mouth before taking their food to the table. None of the workers said anything about his behavior. I won't be going back. Especially since they're fine with someone just eating and touching peoples food. The owners reply is very condescending to imply I can't tell the difference between people who are working at an establishment vs other guests. Maybe he is also trying to imply that the kitchen or bar staff couldn't tell the difference either, and that this person was not supposed to be taking orders from the serving hatch and out to the other tables, and just assumed this "guest" worked there with them. read more

So many choices and orders are done as asked and great tasting food. Habanero salsa is great

I am a frequent of all New Orleans locations of Juan's as I find the food good and consistent with some healthy options and the margaritas I enjoy as well. On this particular visit, I was alone with my two kids who are both under five. They were not acting their best to say the least and were a challenge while trying to actually eat. The staff were laughing with me at the challenge and engaged and entertained the kids as well. Not once did they make me feel like I needed to leave or get them "under control." I just have to say thank you to the staff for making a really challenging situation a little more tolerable. read more

Fantastic!! Queso is deliciously spicy and the margarita strong!! Loved it and will definitely be back!!

A waste of time. After sitting for about 25 minutes and not receiving service, we flagged down a server and was told "This isnt my section." Finally a server came to get our drink orders and turned around right after we stated we will take waters to start and went to another table, looked to be her friends, she was hugging and laughing with them. i gave her the benefit of the doubt and didn't let it get to me. but when she went to the back and came back empty handed and went straight back to her other table (friends) and conversed with them for about 10 minutes. Still with not even our waters and sitting for 40 minutes we told her to not worry about us and we left. Very unorganized wait staff and really just inconsiderate to their patrons. read more

Although I am writing a review on the Magazine St location, we ate at the Oak St location in the Orleans Parish. Even though this location is small in footprint, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. We felt that the quality of food exceeded the price. We are not food snobs/connoisseurs , but like to have our food taste good and when it exceeds our expectations beyond price, we feel great. This is an unassuming store front on Oak Street not far from one of the streetcar garages. Our daughter brought us to this place on Thursday , October 5, 2023 after we arrived in NOLA. This location was very close to her apartment and our AirBnb. This establishment was a great respite after a long journey from Michigan (with a side trip to the Tabasco hot sauce factory). We felt that the food quality and flavor along with the salsa and chips (we didn't have to pay extra for extra salsa) [Big plus]. The walls were lined with posters stating their standing in the TexMex/Mexican standings throughout NOLA. We truly understand the love of their food as we were impressed with the quality and flavor of our meals. We highly suggest Juan's Flying Burritos over Johnny Sanchez (there is a location around the corner from Johnny Sanchez (515 Baronne St, New Orleans, LA 70113) which we felt was superiorly inefficient in quality and price related to Juan's flying Tacos. So, save yourself disappointment in the NOLA TexMex/Mexican food genre by bypassing Johnny Sanchez and heading straight to Juan's Flying Burritos. Remember, I am not a paid endorser and neither establishment is unable to sway me with free meals as we reside in Michigan and no meal anywhere is able to convince me to spend money on airfare to try their food. https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g60864-d477698-r921303195-Juan_s_Flying_Burrito-New_Orleans_Louisiana.html# read more

Food was great and Gigi was so great to us! It was super busy and she was very apologetic and got our food and drinks out really fast.

Even though this location is new, Juan's spirit is flying high here! We have loved this place since the 5500 Magazine location. The food does an excellent job of mixing tex-mex with New Orleans flare. Every dish takes you on a journey to making a memory of the night. This is also the best service I have had in awhile. Glasses stay full and the LemonBerry stays flowing! Great times great food will keep you coming back!!!!! read more

This is my favorite place in my neighborhood. The food is great but the service is even better. Devon is the neighborhood bartender that you hope to have. Every time I walk in she knows my food order (huevos rancheros with extra avocado) and makes me the most amazing margaritas. read more

Not a bad place to grab some quick creole Mexican cuisine not number one though. My girl doesn't like this place lol

Maddy was so amazing with our table, really made my experience phenomenal. I'm happy to say this is my new favorite mexican restaurant

Messed up easy take-out (specifically requested no beef on the taco salad and there was beef). Called and they said 15-20 minutes for the replacement. Rest of us ate and went back. Got there by the 20-minute mark. Had to wait another 15 minutes. You'd think they would give the wrong order replacement priority, but no. Really, really disappointing. read more

The vibes are incredible here. I live nearby and it takes all the self control in the world to resist coming here every day. Margs are very strong and the service is always fast. Chips are tasty. I even came here with my laptop to do work over a pitcher of margs once and they were completely understanding! Def my new favorite place in town read more

Came here today for a quick lunch with a friend. The waiter was super drunk and has no concept of personal space. At some point he came to our table and starts grabbing my 5 month old baby's hands and feet completely unprompted. He then looks at me and in reference to my baby (who is mixed) says "her skin is so dark! Wow I can't believe how dark she is" which is super inappropriate. Food was okay, but that definitely rubbed me the wrong way read more

our server, MK was extremely attentive, friendly, and hospitable. plus the food was bussin, I hope I can get served by MK next time.
