“ Great place. Food is always good . We travel over an hour to go here all the time. ”
“ Super Gas Best Mexican Food Hands Down Sioux City And South Sioux City Step Ya Game Up Storm Lake Lajuas Hands Down The Best Location... Prices Done Got Crazy I Remember Them Tacos Used To Be 1.25 and A Burrito Was Like 4.50 Miss Them Days Back In 2007 ”
“ Absolutely the best Mexican food I've ever had. The seasoning on the carnitas was fantastic, like nothing I've ever tasted before. Next time I go back to Storm Lake I'm going to take a huge cooler and order one of everything they make to take home and try with my family. It's seriously that good! And really inexpensive, it looked too cheap on the menu so I ordered two dinners (Chile relleno and burrito dinner) but they were full size dinner plates, see photo. I had way too much food so I took some home to my wife the next day. She said we should drive 4 hours back to Storm Lake just to get some more for lunch :) ”
“ LaJuanita's is a reliable local spot for Mexican food. There are plenty of choices. The tacos never disappoint and the prices can't be beat. Al pastor and carne asada tacos are my favorite. Recently I tried the caldo de res (beef soup) special of the day and it was excellent as well. ”
