They have a variety of margaritas and other beverages that are always good too! I have liked everything that I've ordered. They also serve breakfast all day. It's conveniently located in the River Prairie District so it's close to the park, events, lodging, etc. There's lots of indoor seating, bar seating, and patio seating. It can be a great place for groups, a date night, taking the kids out, drinks, take out, and pretty much any occasion! It can be busy at times but the staff have always been friendly and attentive! Most recently, I ordered take out and they brought it right to my car for me which made it super easy! A great stop for food and fun!

Staying at a nearby hotel we had a taste for something Mexican and found Juanita's nearby, so we…read morethought we would give it a try. It's in a nice multi use development off River Prairie in a stand alone building shared with several other businesses. They have a great outdoor patio area as well, with some shade. So we were quickly seated by the hostess ( who also brought us tortilla chips and salsas. Within a minute a waiter(we assumed) came over and asked if we wanted to order any drinks. We give him our order and off he goes. In a few minutes another waiter comes to our table and asks the same thing. I tell him we just provided another waiter with our order. His response, oh, that's the bus boy??? ‍ So we give him the drink order and off he goes. After our drinks arrive our waiter asks if we are ready to order and we give him our order as it is starting to get busy with some larger tables filling up. We ended up ordering the carne asada plate and a chicken tamale plate with extra pork tamale. All the plates come with beans and rice as sides. Our meals arrive and they look great. Unfortunately, the carne asada was very tough. Not sure if they marinaded it at all or what,but was very tough. This is my wife's go to meal when eating Mexican, so she is very familiar with how it should taste and even cut. Sadly the tortillas were very greasy, which you can see in the pictures. Not sure if they sprayed them with oil before heating, but not great. My tamales were just ok. Meat was very dry even when I added a a lot of hot sauce. The rice and beans were ok as well. So overall kind of average. Would I come back again, probably not. There seemed to be a lot of Mexican restaurants in the Altoona/Eau Claire area that I would try before coming back.

That took a but longer and maybe 5 of our people they forgot. BUT they asked again what the entree was and our people had it in front of them in a matter of minutes.
