    Yum! This is a great seafood food truck if you are in the Yuma area. Be sure to check to see what time and days they are open. This is a cash only establishment, so don't forget to bring your bills. The food truck is located in a gated area, with a decent amount of parking spots. There are tables that are covered, with a different assortment of condiments and sauces. You order your food at the food truck, and if you are dining in, they will bring your food out to you fresh and hot. Otherwise, you can order your food to go, and they will pack it up for you pretty quickly. FYI, they primarily speak in Spanish, so be sure to brush up on your Spanish-speaking skills, or be sure to point to which type of fish or shrimp tacos you want. They also serve drinks, such as Coca-Cola in a glass bottle!

    literally, my favorite tacos in the whole entire world! I'm from Yuma and every time I visit I have to have to have JUANITAS !! I will admit, the customer service is not the best. But the tacos are the best in town always warm and super fresh!!

    Truck serving the tastiest shrimp tacos ever and giant seafood cocktails. Limited outdoor-only seating and long lines but it's worth it. We were looking for a good place to stop for lunch on our drive from Phoenix to San Diego when we came across Ed's blog. The wonderfully detailed descriptions and pictures made it a no-brainer to stop at Juanita's. This is the largest shiniest taco truck I've ever seen parked in a lot with outdoor seating and permanent restrooms. Unfortunately, they had already sold out of the fish tacos so we ordered the shrimp tacos and campechanas (cocktail with every seafood available - you can also choose just one seafood). The shrimp tacos were every bit as good if not better as Ed describes - freshly-breaded and fried small shrimp with crunchy cabbage topped with a tangy creamy sauce. The campechanas is enormous and contained jumbo shrimps, bay scallops, fresh succulent oysters, tender octopus, and abalone. Our favorite was the oysters.

    The only place I've ever been able to find shrimp cocktail this fresh is in Mexico. Juanita's is by far the best seafood available in Yuma; however, don't let the lunch truck fool ya' it's not surprising if it ends up being $15-20 per person. Totally worth it at the end of the day. I could eat here every single day of my life if my wallet would allow it.

    Stopped here for dinner on our way through Yuma and it was delicious! From the chips and salsa to…read moreboth our meals!! We will eat here again whenever we come to Yuma next!! The restaurant was small but very clean and the employees were nice. Thank you!

    Nov, 2025. Yuma, AZ. My husband and I were traveling between Palm Springs, CA and Tucson, AZ, and…read morewe decided to eat lunch in Yuma as this was roughly the half-way point on our journey. Given the proximity of Yuma to Mexico, we decided that we wanted to eat "authentic" Mexican food. We then turned to Yelp to identify Mexican restaurants with good reviews and in close proximity to I-8, which is what brought us to Tacos Mi Rancho. The restaurant was easy to find, but every single parking space was already taken; we were able to park on the adjacent side street for free and without incident. The restaurant was busy but there were a few small tables for two available. We were greeted promptly by our friendly waitress, and we were given menus and she took our drink orders. Another server immediately brought a bowl of tortilla chips and tasty salsa (gratis). My husband and I both ordered from the "Senior Citizen Portions" menu for those aged 62 Years and Older. All entrees include beans, rice, and salad for $12.50. (Note that the entrees that we selected, as well as some other menu offerings and pozole, are on special on Friday's, the day that we visited. They were $10.99 each). My husband ordered #11, two chicken enchiladas, while I got the #12, one chili relleno/one rolled taco. I also got a horchata (a sweet and creamy non-alcoholic beverage made primarily from rice, cinnamon, and vanilla), which was served in a huge glass with ice; no refills ($3.99). We split our entrees, and all of the food was well-portioned and tasty. We felt that the meals were a good value. We were also pleasantly surprised to find that the tastes were similar to those at our local Mexican restaurant back home in Virginia. The restaurant is in an old, nondescript building, but is tastefully decorated with a Mexican theme. It was clean, and workers wiped down the tables immediately after patrons left. One pet peeve was that the final bill that was given to us included only the total, so it was difficult to know whether it was correct or not. The total was $28.67, before taxes. We were able to reproduce this total as: 2 entrees at $10.99 each + 1 horchata ($3.99) + Yuma and Arizona taxes ($2.70, @ 10.41%). Overall rating: 4.5, rounded up to 5.0.
