37 Best Mexican Restaurants near Running Springs

“Such a good spot- The vibe was immaculate and it was the perfect spot to take a break and recharge after a long day. The pozole was absolutely delicious and the desert was just fantastic (I would drive all the way back just for the churros!) and our waitress was amazing- so friendly and helpful! Definitely a 10/10 spot ?“

“Amazing Chile Rellenos!!! Damn, I'm craving one now. The Basura burrito is a life changer, for better or worse. We have NO REGRETS! Just for the sheer size alone and comedic aspect (it had us rollin all night whenever we'd glance over and realize we still had to finish it). This entree made our trip extremely memorable. They don't mess around with the quantity of pork and goodies they jam up in there. You must spiritually prepare for something like this, but you will be enlightened afterwards. GODSPEED! & get it wet, for sure. Half roja half verde. Service was ehhhh but it's not really about anything else but the BASURA!! Naw but really, don't skimp on the freakin salsa when we have a 10-pound burrito to take down. & smiling always helps :)“

“Had a great brunch there while attending a soccer tournament in San Bernardino. Authentic Mexican cuisine, it was fresh, tasty and the service was great, what else? I had the Huevos Mexicana, rice and beans on the side, was amazing. Had also both grilled peppers and corn tortillas to complement it, heaven on earth ?Kid-friendliness: Super kid friendly with dedicated menu“

“Absolutely 5-Star! Everything was on point. We were in Lake Arrowhead for several meals and this one was definitely the best. They also serve breakfast, so we're coming back for that as well next time. All four people in my dining party were very happy with their food. Cali Burrito. Shrimp Burrito, Chimi-style bean & cheese. They even had a chicken sandwich for our picky eater. Highly recommend!“

“Honestly best micheladas! Great food ! Most of all great customer service ! Love this place ! First impression counts and I must say I recommend this place !“

“Juanito's is a most welcome discovery for delicious Mexican food in the Inland Empire! I live in Redlands and have not been able to find a place that excites me and my wife to get tasty Mexican food! Not only is it yummy, but the prices are very affordable compared to most in the surrounding areas, like Redlands. The street tacos are excellent, the meat burritos are more than satisfying, and the potato tacos are worth the extra food you'll eat by ordering one! Their green salsa is not disappointing, very spicy, and flavorful!“

“excellent place to stop in for some great Mexican food and great customer service.“

“Although the menu has changed since the days of when I lived nearby, I still come here for the food. I now live in wisconsin, but I haul expedite loads in a sprinter van. I have been out this way about every 3 weeks. And I don't miss a visit here. It's one stop I always look forward to.“

“Note: I was so hungry I forgot to take a picture of our food. Take that as a sign...it was good. We got there early, so the restaurant was just starting to get busy for breakfast. The smells of the kitchen really hit the appetite. Very small dining area, but warm and cozy. Decor was classically Mexicano. The menu was classic. They do have adult beverages if you are dining a little later in the day, but for me - I decided on a Mexican coke to go with my meal. I had the Chorizzo con Juevo plate and my wife had the Machaca plate. Both meals were delicious and filling. The beef in the Machaca was well seasoned. The refried beans were not your canned refried beans, or at least they did not taste like it. Maybe I was that hungry. The surprise was the salsa. Homemade and delicious. They must have a lot of people asking for it as they do sell it to go. If your on your way up to Arrowhead or Big bear, this little gem is right on the highway where you decide to go left to Arrowhead or straight to Big Bear. If you're hungry it is worth the stop. Hasta Luego!“

“Some of the best food I’ve had in a while. I thought the food had a lot of flavor. We had the quesa pizza with Birria, Pastor Mulita, and Birria tacos. There was so much food for three of us and we left with extras and paid less than $50. Also one of the best cucumber aqua Frescas I’ve had. We’re gonna be back in the area again tomorrow and plan on going back. Highly recommend.“

“Muy buen servicio los tacos para chuparse los dedos cómodo y limpio el lugar excelente todo“

“The food is great!! I’m picky with my birria and let me tell you this one didn’t disappoint! The tortillas were handmade, everything cooked to perfection, and the girls were so nice! Definitely going back ❤️“

“Been there for breakfast and lunch. Food is great (love the chips and salsa bar), and the service is fast. The seating is comfortable, the ambiance is nice - family oriented, and even with the various sports tv's you can still hear each other speak without yelling. Oh and don't forget that you can get adult beverages if that suits your fancy.“

“We came to San Bernardino for a soccer tournament and we came to eat here, we called in advance to see if they would accommodate 20 people and they said yes. When we got there they were setting up tables outside so we can eat all together! Despite being 20 of us they got our drinks and food out in a timely manner. We were all very satisfied with the meals we chose. Not only were they super accommodating they also gave us free appetizers!“

“Wound up here by accident and happy that we did. The food was fresh and came out fast. The ingredients were made in house and the margaritas were YUMMY! The staff checked on us and the restaurant was clean! We’ll come back on our next trip to Lake Arrowhead!“

“Me and my wife came for the 49ers vs Seahawks playoff game. It was really busy but expected to be at this time. Food took a little while but understood with so many orders they had to fill. It was really good! We ordered chicken wings (big pieces! And we’ll done) jalapeño poppers, onion rings and a personal sized pepperoni pizza. Good family atmosphere, and wanna come back with some more friends and family!“

“great authentic Mexican food with great service at a great price. everything is always fresh. A diamond in the rough.“

“We bought carne asada tacos, very delicious. The sauces are very rich and they give you additional roasted chives and chili. The horchata very rich.First class attention. On Tuesdays they sell roast beef tacos for 1.50We will be back very often to buy because we loved the food and the service.“

“We order takeout from Cuca's 2-3 times per month. When I went on February 19, Jessica W. was working the front desk. She was super friendly, got my special order exactly correct, and was fast and effiecient. I wish she was there all the time! She will make a great server if that's what she wants to be.The food is great at Cuca's, but recently has been inconsistent, especially in portion size. Once in February my enchilada had barely any sauce and dinky portions of rice and beans, while my wife's taquitos had a very small portion of guacamole and again, tiny portions of rice and beans. Normally I can get two meals out of my order, but this time barely got one satisfying meal.“

“Probably the best mariscos place for miles. Very clean restaurant, good food. Started out with the chips and salsa. Salsa is very tasty but you are warned it is spicy. I then had the filet in garlic sauce. "Filete al mojo de ajo" definitly a 8.5 out of 10 for the garlic lovers.Not a cheap place but solid good food!!!“

“Rosa Maria is my go to place to eat dinner every time I get an opportunity when I’m working at the clinic. I get classic service every single time. Everyone has been helpful, but especially Sophie and Bonnie, who have been incredibly helpful, kind, and loving. I am a huge fan and will continue to be a fan of Rosa Maria’s.“

“they have great food, great service.“

“Love this albertos, it's my go to for my lunch break during the week, a simple bean and cheese holds me over with 4 of their salsa Verde. The lady who works the ordering system remembers me everytime I come through. 10/10 would recommend.“

“I discovered Miguel's in Corona probably 40 years ago. Way back then the owners used to wait on us! About 15 years ago some of us went to lunch together and one of the guys ordered his burrito wet style! Well I tried it and got hooked. The El Potato Burrito, wet style with sour cream and guacamole!!!!! OMG it's the BEST!!!! They cook their potato's in broth and they are delicious! When they opened the one in Redlands I wanted to throw a party! Their strawberry lemonade in the summer is also delicious! Love you Miguel's!!!!“

“We went to Papagayos on Valentine's Day. We both enjoyed our meal. I had the most delicious shredded beef enchiladas I have ever had. My husband had carnitas taco plate and he said they were full of meat and very tasty. Our server did a good job and we enjoyed the atmosphere. We will definitely come back.“

“It.s close by and I like it. Also save money. It.s a good place to go eat“

“okay , hear me out. i got some pupusas yesterday, they were pretty good. one of the best i’ve had (in san bernardino..so far) & they have a deal on the pupusas on thursdays. i paid less than 15 for 8 pupusas. now here is the only thing i noticed , they have a little kid as the cashier. he looks to be around 10-12 maybe . & that’s so cool that he’s helping his family, however , since he’s a child. he doesn’t really have that customer service. which i don’t blame him for. he’s a child. he should be doing his homework or watching movies while settling down & getting ready for bed. again, im not hating on them. i understand that family helps out family, because my family is family over everything as well. all i’m saying is, i feel bad for the kid. other than that, this place seems great. i will possibly be returning(specially on thursday’s ?)“

“Wonderful. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, pretty good food. Would come back again . Would recommend to others.“

“After a long day at the Yaamava Casino, the delicious lunch we enjoyed at this little family owned restaurant really HIT THE SPOT! We had Carnitas and Asada Nachos, Carnitas Wet Burrito and aguas frescas (Horchata and Jamaica) EVERYTHING was authentic! Servings are generous, too. The red salsa was so good I asked for some to take home with our leftovers! The customer service was warm and welcoming. We felt like family! We will definitely be back when we head to the casino again! It will be our SPOT!“

“Great Vibes great food loved the drinks“

“Hello everyone out there I just happen to stop by in San Bernardino at this amapola on del Rosa and what I like to order from there is the bean and cheese burrito with green sauce salsa in it I like to just say this the French fries that they changed over to are amazing they're crispy their light they're fluffy they're not like the ones that they had before so if you guys are fry enthusiast I would say come over here to this one to check out their fries .“

“Great food for a spot in the gas station. Only concern is the website says closes at 9p, but the lady says they close at 8p for orders...little confusing as she said they have to stop cooking at 8p so they can close by 9p. I would recommend changing the time as that is misleading to those that may want a meal coming in after 8p.“

“muy buenas las carnitas,, realmente deliciosas, super limpio y excelente atencion se han ganado un cliente frecuente FELICIDADES !!!!!“

“I just had this restaurant cater my party this past weekend. I can't say enough about what an AMAZING job they did with my order! The employees were extremely polite and very helpful. The food was so delicious! My guests kept raving about the quality of the food and they are making it a point to go and visit this restaurant in the future. They did a wonderful job in packaging the items to keep all food items warm. The food made my party a true success and I will definitely be using them again. I highly recommend this restaurant!!!! You will not be disappointed!!!“

“Clean (Restaurant/Meat Market)and had everything I needed hamburger cook out.The ground beef was excellent, the same crowd of people and same recipe, the only difference was the ground beef.. everyone complemented on the quality and juiciness of the meat.The Chorizo seco is also better quality and better tasting than other local carnicerías.Good Service.Good Prices.Clean.Quality meats, poultry and pork.Can’t give it five stars only because I haven’t tried their seafood or restaurant.“

“My wife is really craving birria so I googled birria in the area and found this place. I got a birria burrito and it was delicious! It comes in a plate with refried beans and tortilla chips! Not a bad deal at all for the price. They have every kind of salsa you could think of ,red, green ,guacasalsa…etc This is my new favorite Mexican food place in the IE!“
