Such a hidden gem! Super affordable. The portions are perfect, the quality of the food is amazing, and their brunch is the ABSOLUTE BEST! Delicious mimosas, and I love that they have brunch until much later than usual. A must-try within the city!

Came in for brunch, and we were greeted by our server, who immediately told us all steak options were unavailable. So I had the chorizo chilaquiles, which were very gross. It was like a plate of chili nachos. My husband ordered the Chile verde plate, and the beans were so dry and disgusting. My kids wanted the French toast, but they were out of that too. We will not come again and I will not recommend it.

Great ambiance and hands down the best Mexican food in riverside. You should expect a 20 minute wait but if you appreciate quality food you'll be blown away!

Ricardo is everything you need more! Ambience A+, Customer service A+. Food was delicious. Best rice I’ve had in a long time. Veggie enchiladas were amazing and the red sauce was flavorful.

Greeted as we entered and immediately sat down at a table. Our server was attentive and welcoming. I enjoyed the salsa which was fresh, I would’ve liked some salt for the chips but I didn’t think to ask. The chicken enchiladas with the red sauce was great and had a nice little spicy to it. The rice and beans it came with were great as well and cooked perfectly. The tamarindo agua fresca was really good! Super happy with my first experience here

The waiter was so amazing! He explained everything so well and was so nice and accomodating. I can't give him enough praise!!! However, it smelled a but like cigarettes when we walked in (this is gross for me), and the woman who served us the meals mixed up the shrimp and chicken enchiladas, so folks got the wrong ones. The food was pretty good! Again the waiter was amazing I can't stress that enough. He deserves a raise!!
