About Juana Taco Windsor

Juana Taco delivers authentic Mexican street food packed with rich flavor and freshly crafted drinks on High Street. Inside the quirky, art-lined dining room, diners find scratch-made tortillas pressed daily and crisp, house-prepared jalapeño poppers. The kitchen centers its craft on slow-cooked beef birria tacos—crisped on the grill with melted cheese and served beside rich, savory dipping consommé. Behind the bar, bartenders shake classic Tommy's margaritas to order with quality tequila and fresh citrus, skipping premixed syrups entirely. Guests settle into the unhurried atmosphere over fresh house salsas, grilled corn elote, and cold Mexican beers.

  • House-Made Birria Tacos: Tortillas pressed fresh daily and filled with tender beef birria, served with rich dipping consommé.
  • Fresh-Crafted Margaritas: Margaritas shaken to order with quality tequila and fresh ingredients rather than pre-mixed syrups.
  • Eccentric High Street Vibe: Relaxed evenings inside an art-filled dining room backed by warm, attentive hospitality.

Why Diners Choose Juana Taco Windsor

Discover why diners choose Juana Taco on High Street for authentic Mexican dishes, craft cocktails, and relaxed dining.

  • Authentic Birria with Consommé

    Juana Taco crafts beef birria tacos with tender pulled beef grilled with cheese onto tortillas and paired with rich, dipping consommé.

    The cheese was grilled onto the tortilla and when dipped into the consommé the tender pulled beef soaks up all the flavour.

  • Scratch-Made Daily Tortillas

    Tortillas are freshly pressed daily in-house, pairing with scratch-made jalapeño poppers rather than pre-made or frozen shortcuts.

    The tortilla is homemade daily and it’s as fresh as it gets.

  • Fresh, Made-to-Order Margaritas

    Cocktails are mixed to order using quality tequila and balanced fresh ingredients rather than pre-batched taps or commercial dispensers.

    serves authentic margaritas with decent tequila which aren't pre-mixed like all other Mexican restaurants.

  • Unhurried Hospitality

    Hospitality remains patient and welcoming even when guests arrive late or linger through closing time.

    even when our friends were hoursss late to dinner and we stayed up until close we were never rushed and she treated the situation with such grace.

  • Enchiladas

    I would recommend the enchiladas and birria tacos! The beef in the enchiladas were tender and spiced perfectly.

  • Jalapeño Poppers

    I LOVED the jalapeno poppers and am considering coming back to buy more before we head home to NSW. I was so over having frozen jalapeno poppers, so I was thrilled to find they are homemade.

    Angel Locke

  • Fish Tacos

    I always get the grilled chicken and fish. You can get 3 for $18 or 6 for $32. You’ll regret only getting 3 though!

Before you head over

Practical tips on ordering specials, customizing spice, and drink timing for your visit.

  • Check the Outside Board for Birria

    Look for beef birria tacos listed on the board outside if you do not spot them on the printed table menu, and pair them with the dipping consommé broth.

  • Request Fresh Salsas for Extra Heat

    If you enjoy heat or extra spice, ask staff directly for house-made fresh salsas to accompany your dishes, as heat levels are naturally moderate.

  • Allow Time for Made-to-Order Drinks

    Margaritas are made fresh to order with decent tequila rather than dispensed from pre-mix batches, so plan for a modest wait during peak service.
