Restaurant in Anaheim, United States
One dish. Go for the carne en su jugo.
Burritos Los De Juárez on Lincoln Ave is worth a specific trip for one reason: the Burrito de Carne en su Jugo, a Jalisco-style braised beef preparation with documented recognition behind it. Walk-in only, casual format, and modest pricing make it the lowest-friction quality burrito stop in Anaheim. Come for that dish and you will not be disappointed.
Stop assuming this is just another taqueria you can breeze past on Lincoln Ave. Burritos Los De Juárez has earned specific recognition for one dish — the Burrito de Carne en su Jugo — and that singular focus is the reason to go. If you are looking for a broad menu with multiple standout options, manage expectations accordingly. If you want to eat one of the more talked-about burritos in Anaheim, this address delivers.
The Burrito de Carne en su Jugo is the reason this spot is on the map. The dish , meat braised in its own juices, wrapped in a burrito , is a Jalisco-style preparation rooted in a tradition of low-waste, high-flavour cooking where the braising liquid becomes the sauce. That technique demands quality sourcing: meat that is mediocre will not survive the process and produce a result worth repeating. The fact that this preparation has earned public recognition suggests the sourcing and execution here are doing their job. You are not paying for atmosphere or tableside theatre , you are paying for the integrity of the protein and the technique applied to it.
For a returning visitor, the next step is direct: if the Burrito de Carne en su Jugo is what brought you the first time, consider how it compares across visits for consistency. Consistent braising results are a reliable indicator of how seriously a kitchen manages its ingredient quality week to week. That consistency is the real test of whether the sourcing commitment holds over time, not just on a lucky visit.

Against Anaheim's higher-end options, this is a different category entirely. The Ranch is the go-to for a polished steakhouse evening with a serious wine list and considerably higher per-head spend. Anaheim White House offers Italian-leaning fine dining with a formal room , better suited to a business dinner or anniversary than a casual lunch stop. Neither competes with Burritos Los De Juárez on value for a quick, focused meal.
If you want a bar-led experience in Anaheim rather than a food-first visit, Strong Water is the stronger choice , rum-focused cocktails with a tiki-adjacent programme that has genuine craft behind it. For a truly occasion-driven Anaheim experience, Club 33 at Disneyland and 21 Royal at Disneyland operate on a different logic , membership-gated or invitation-only, premium pricing, and an experience built around the Disney context rather than the food alone. Neither is a peer comparison for Burritos Los De Juárez.
The honest positioning: Burritos Los De Juárez is the leading answer in Anaheim when the question is specifically a Jalisco-style braised beef burrito at a casual price point. It does not compete with fine dining venues on service or setting, and it is not trying to. For a dedicated, ingredient-driven taco and burrito format, it has a clearer identity than most casual spots in its price bracket.
The Burrito de Carne en su Jugo is the documented standout and the reason for the venue's recognition. Order that first. It is a Jalisco-style preparation where beef is braised in its own juices , the technique is specific and the result is distinct from a standard grilled-beef burrito. On a return visit, use it as your baseline to judge consistency.
Casual clothing is entirely appropriate. This is a Lincoln Ave taqueria, not a formal dining room. There are no dress expectations and no reason to overthink it.
No advance booking is needed , this is a walk-in spot. Booking difficulty is classified as easy. If you are visiting during a busy lunch window on a weekend, a short wait is possible, but you will not need a reservation.
For casual Mexican food in Anaheim, you are looking at a competitive set of independent taquerias along Lincoln and the surrounding streets. For a completely different experience at a higher price point, Anaheim White House and The Ranch cover fine dining and steakhouse territory respectively. For cocktails over food, Strong Water is the Anaheim pick with the strongest drinks programme.
Not in a conventional sense. There is no formal room, no tasting menu, and no service depth suited to a milestone dinner. That said, if the occasion is specifically celebrating great regional Mexican cooking , or you want to introduce someone to a well-executed Jalisco-style burrito , it fits that framing well. For a traditional special-occasion dinner in Anaheim, Anaheim White House or The Ranch are better suited.
There is no confirmed bar seating at this venue based on available data. Given the casual taqueria format, seating is likely counter or table-based. Treat it as a direct casual dining setup rather than a bar-dining destination.
Yes , this is an easy solo dining call. Casual format, walk-in access, no dress code, and modest pricing make it low-friction for a single diner. The focused menu means you are not weighing up complicated options alone. It is a practical and comfortable solo lunch stop.
If you are building out an Anaheim itinerary beyond this stop, Pearl covers the full range. For a serious cocktail bar, Strong Water is worth the visit. For fine dining, Anaheim White House covers Italian-leaning formal territory and The Ranch handles the steakhouse category.
