"Traveling between Albuquerque and Las Cruces, we decided to stop for lunch in Socorro, at Don Juan's Cocina. The staff was very helpful and kind, and the food was homemade and of high quality. It wasn't necessarily the absolute best Mexican food that I have had anywhere, but the freshness of the food and the ingredients really shined through. The friendliness of the staff was appreciated genuinely checking-in to be helpful. This restaurant seemed like a spot that locals/residents enjoyed, as there was a steady stream of them. In our group, we tried the burritos and tamales, and the dishes we had were very good. Everything was affordable and reasonably priced. We would not hesitate in eating here again, the next time we are in the area."

these are the best tacos I had since the move to socorro!
Alexandre
Yummy homemade beans and rice!!! Not canned beans or instant boxed rice. So delicious!
Isadore
I had the ground beef tacos. The meat was greassy, just enough to soften the bottom of the hard shell. View menu

Great food and service. Do yourself a favor and order and extra 1 or 2, or maybe 6 of the sopapilla! Add the honey, just wonderful! Stopped for lunch, traveling from Roswell, NM to Winslow, AZ.

This restaurant offers classic New Mexican cuisine with potentially fiery green chili. The dining area is straightforward yet functional. Be sure to check out their daily special offerings on the menu.

I stumbled upon this restaurant by chance and decided to order takeout. The atmosphere was lively with many locals dining, so I decided to give it a try. The food was delicious and I would definitely return. View menu

Oh, man, I tried to crush the carne adowada with her green sose burrito. it is the first nm green chile that has heat and taste. tamale was excellent. if they want to try a real heat and eat good. don juan’s cocina is the best inexpensive food in socorro. make sure they have a delicious drink to wash it. highly recommended

During our trip from Roswell, NM to Winslow, AZ, we stopped for lunch and tried the taco plate and tamale plate at this restaurant. Both dishes were delicious. However, the highlight was the sopapillas that came with the meal. I had never tried them before, but they were absolutely amazing, especially when drizzled with honey. Do yourself a favor and order an extra one or two, or maybe even six! They are heavenly!
