Thank you. -

TL;DR - finally got to try this place that a co-worked recommended and I wasn't sorry for stopping by. I'll definitely make my way back to try some of their other items!

CONTEXT: A co-worker has mentioned that Juniors is one of her favorite places in town, but I hadn't gotten to try it until recently since they're only open in the middle of the day and I don't make it to that side of town super often.
FOOD/DRINKS
-- Torta milanesa - solid option for a quick lunch. It's not the heartiest choice, but I thought there was a nice balanced between the thin, fried piece of meat, the fresh vegetables, the soft bread, and their sauces.
STAFF
I only interacted with one guy who took my order and brought me my plate, but he was friendly and even made sure to point out their list of meat options when I was taking photos of their menu.
SPACE/LOCATION
I've passed by a few times when they were closed and it always looked a little small, but it's more spacious inside than I thought. There's a ton of natural light, there's a lot of seating, it's very clean, and it's not cramped. They have a good amount of parking in the back, too. -

The place is tiny, which means it gets crowded when there's a lot of people waiting to order.
I ordered the enchilada special (3 chicken or cheese enchiladas with rice and beans) and an horchata.
The enchiladas were decent, nothing out of the ordinary, but the sauce that covers the tortilla tasted homemade and not like it came out of a can. The chicken tasted as if it was grilled on a bbq grill; it was a pleasant surprise. The rice was a bit dry and some bites consisted of crunchy rice. The beans were seasoned well.
The horchata looked like it had been sitting in the ice for quite a while, making the horchata taste watered down.
Overall it was a nice place to grab a quick bite for lunch, when it's not super busy/crowded. -

Authentic, delicious, and friendly. Reasonable prices. Not the best, but a very good meal. Try it!

First and last time I'll eat there. I ordered a gordita de asada and huevos rancheros. Hubby and kids got food to and we all agreed the only good thing was the beans and tortillas echas a mano, ya de a yi everything was horrible, it was flavorless and just straight salt. The service was ok. As far as price it wasn't too crazy but it sure wasn't cheap. My kid ordered flautas ( rolled up fried chicken tacos) and it came with no sour cream or cheese so I went to order a side of sour cream and that was $1.50 extra like what!? You'd think it come with the flautas since they usually do. My husband ordered a taco and enchiladas de queso ( they messed up his order) and he also wasn't a fan of the food. Save your money, you can cook this better at home.. Oh but the agua de Jamaica is really good.
