Juanito's is a long-running casual restaurant on Blvd. Costero Miguel de la Madrid in the Las Brisas district of Manzanillo, Mexico, operating since the 1980s and known equally for its breakfast menu and its Mexican-American seafood. Signature dishes span both ends of the day: camarones al coco, coconut-battered shrimp, and breaded fish fillet for lunch and dinner, alongside huevos rancheros for the long-running breakfast service that draws expats and returning visitors. The dining room has an easygoing, beachside-strip-mall character, open from early morning until late at night, with casual seating, no dress code, and a steady, conversational noise level rather than a party atmosphere. There is no formal wine list; the beverage program leans toward coffee, juices at breakfast, and beer later in the day. Reservations are not required given the restaurant's long hours and casual walk-in format, though weekend mornings can draw a wait for breakfast among the returning-visitor crowd that has made it a Manzanillo fixture for decades.
