For more than 20 years, family-owned Don Juan Restaurante has earned a loyal following with its traditional south-of-the-border fare and offbeat daily specials (think venison fajitas). A recently added taqueria menu offers quick options for those eating on the run. Favorites include the Baja fish and veggie tacos. Those looking for a more sophisticated setting can reserve one of the eight tables at Patricio, a more upscale dining room with a seasonally focused menu.
