“Her customer service was amazing . She helps you pick out your food if you’re unsure of what you want . I got a smothers rib tip plate with Mac and cheese and cabbage it was soooo good the meat was very tender the Mac was so good . But the best part was the breakfast burrito I got it for my boyfriend but couldn’t stop eating it . It was big the meat was seasoned well . I highly recommend a ground beef breakfast burrito when you go . I definitely will be returning .“
“They sell authentic Mexican food, they're spicy salsas are delicious. My husband loves the huaraches and their Jamaica is awesome! The only recommendation I would have is for you guys to offer a non spicy salsa.Parking: It's a huge parking.Kid-friendliness: They are kid friendly. They have high chairs.“

“It gets packed here and it's across the military base, the staff is on it, got our food fast and it was delicious. Lots of seating inside and outside. A lot to choose from their wide variety menu. You do order at the counter id suggest to look at their menu beforehand so you know what to get so you're not standing there too long.“
“Food was so good, and try all the salsas as they all have amazing flavors! Food took a little long, but was worth the wait. Only item I don't recommend is the refried beans, too greasy, pinto were much better. A little worn down, but I did enjoy the outdoor seating a lot.“
“The food was delicious. I ordered the big quesabirria, it was $12.50 and came with 5 slices since it was a huge quesadilla and came with a side of consúme. The server Aldo was very nice and friendly, I recommend this place if you're looking for a bomb quesabirria place in MoVal.“
“Everything about this place is GREAT!! I have tried multiple dishes, drinks, etc, and EVERYTHING IS AMAZING. The atmosphere is very much a Mexican feel, the food is beyond amazing, and the service is always beyond great. Couldn’t say anything bad about this place.“
“This is a family owned business and fairly new to the area. We found this place on a whim. With all mariscos, it varies depending on the person making it and we all have our preferences. Personally I didn't really like it - kinda tasted more ketchupy to me. However, my boyfriend loved it. The service was very good. The cashier took the time to go through the menu with us. They have limited seating, but offer take out. Pro tip: Cash payment is cheaper than card.“
“Was iffy on trying Cafe Rio and so I pulled the trigger! And may I say, I wish I would've pulled it sooner!! The food was amazing, down to the lettuce lol. The service was phenomenal and every inch of my bowl was covered with food. I can confidently say I will no longer step foot in a Chipotle, I found my spot!“
“Very small place, very hidden. However, the service, the food, the atmosphere was the absolute best! Restaurant is a very hidden gem here in MoVal! Highly recommend their Chicken Fajitas! The chef is very talented as the food always comes out hot, fresh, steamy, and sizzling! One can tell the chef always makes the food with love, passion, and care! 5/5 Highly recommend this hidden gem!“
“The food here is consistently good with generous portions at a very reasonable price. The staff is friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable, and they have a full service bar. They also offer weekday lunchtime specials that are an excellent value. Not a fancy restaurant, but well worth a visit.“
“Been coming to Carminas since I was in high school when they were off Perris and Filaree. Best chiliquilles I've ever had. I order tamales every Christmas from here and am never disappointed. Added red chili this year and it was a huge hit for everyone for Christmas eve. If you're looking for some authentic Mexican food look no further than Carminas. 10/10“
“Whenever I crave Mexican food at any time of the day or night, my choice would be Albertacos. They're open 24 hours, 7 days a week which is very convenient. Portions are big and worth what you pay for. You can either choose the drive thru or dine in. The place is clean and the staff are very nice and polite.“

I wanted to try this place out and I was not disappointed nor dissatisfied. You can always call in and order ahead of time. If you're want to take your food to go. It was worth the wait. I recommend it to anybody. You can't get any better or fresher Salvadoran food anywhere. Don’t wait…. Go and try it! Very nice staff too!“

“My husband and I came to this place recommended by my lovely clients. Since the moment we entered we were greeted with a warm welcome by all workers and owners. Food was delicious! Everything I had was excellent! They serve the birria with warm handmade corn tortillas. They were also able to customize my lemonade drink to my own liking. I absolutely recommend this place!“
“Have just done take out but upon showing up and waiting near the bar it seems like a good atmosphere and the service was very good. Very friendly and helpful. The bar area was more populated than they're dance area but it was still early in the evening. They're carnitas family pack is awesome and affordable. Some of the best carnitas! Very tasty“
“Called about 3-4 places looking for caldo de res (Mexican beef soup) on my lunch break. They were the only place that served it. The caldo was superb, just like how I make it. As I waited for my order I noticed a couple other people had ordered it so I felt confident in my order. It was SOOOO good, I went back the next day for more! I also tried their rolled tacos! Those were delicious as well! Everything I ordered came with all the sides. The caldo came with rice , onions, lemon, cilantro and jalepenos all chopped up in a separate container. The rolled tacos/ Taquitos came with an avocado creama,lettuce , & chopped up tomatoes….. I can’t wait to try another item off the menu. Everything is so flavorful and has that homemade taste. Definitely recommend 10/10. This place definitely deserves recognition?“
“I have had many meals delivered from here but I finally went in for lunch with friends. Not much to look at and it's inside an indoor mall, but the food is worth it. Everyone enjoyed their food and service was excellent. Burritos are large and the tortillas are crispy. Quesadilla was more like a flat burrito, full of meat and huge. Give it a try, you can always shop around to work off calories.“
“Food is authentic Mexican food. Love all the natural drinks. One that my wife likes is Coconut Walnut. They had one called Punkin Orchata, Yummy!!. Believe me is worth what you pay for. There is plenty of parking lot. They have a lot of variety of meat. Lengua is one of them. They employee are very friendly. Definitly will come again. Also they do tortillas by hand.“
“Really excellent and authentic food. The carnitas and pastor were both fantastic. Restaurant has seating for about 10-12 people inside, the small tacos are small (2 bites), and the large tacos are pretty good sized and served on a yellow corn tortilla. The burrito was good sized also. They have a condiments bar with hot carrots, lemons/limes and salsa. 10 out of 10 would go back.“
“This place is a Gem! Friendly services, fast cooking, and inviting laid back atmosphere. It tastes like the food was made with love. It's so close to my job, what a great place to enjoy my lunch.I had the steak and eggs breakfast with house potatoes and hot coffee. Lovely meal“
“The food was delicious!! I've been craving a good authentic molcajete (5 months pregnant craving) , so we had a family dinner here from looking at the photos on yelp . We walked in and were surprised that it wasn't busy but that was better for us because I was starving so that meant we would get are food faster . The prices were also pretty good!! My son order the butter shrimp plate , both dishes came with rice and beans . The molcajete we ordered was perfect for two people and the tortillas were yummy aswell. We ordered the chicken, sausage, asada, and shrimp molcajete with no cheese. I can't wait to go back for my birthday dinner !!“
“4!! Great service, great food and drinks were nice and cold. I got so full couldn't eat the hotdog. Ambiance was nice they had good vibes, two sides one seemed more party style and the other sit down with tables. Located in a small parking lot with other businesses , I'd definitely be back.“
