Combination plate, very large portion of one taco and chicken enchilada with a lot of beans rice. The green verde sauce was quite spicy, delicious.

I had this today and I must say it was pretty good. They cooked the taco shells well, so I didn't have to worry about the tortillas being soggy. I enjoyed all of the hot sauce, the white one was very hot for everyone who likes spice, so beware! Overall, I think it was really good. I wish they would've added more limes. It wasn't enough for the amount of tacos that I had. I also got a Horchata which I would not recommend. It had a very weird taste to it and I'm not sure if it was just a one time thing, but it was kind of tangy and tart so I wasn't a fan.

Not sure how this place was on Google with 5 stars? Not easy to get to, instant coffee and powder creamer? Inside needs a make over and they really need more waitresses/help!

The posole was great, except I forgot the tortillas unless you have to pay extra for them, but nevertheless it was delicious

The food was excellent, very unique taste and more than enough. Will definitely be returning. I observed the staff, very calm although they had steady orders being picked up

Really enjoyed everything. I got carne asada, adobada, and carnita tacos and an adobada burrito. Such good flavor and will be swinging by here to eat whenever I'm in Vista.

Rito's is a proper hole-in-the-wall Mexican restaurant. It's straightforward and unassuming. I generally judge a local Mexican restaurant by how many white people are inside. If it's mostly white people, turn around and walk away. There are a few places in downtown Carlsbad that fit this description, but I digress. Rito's on the other hand seems as if most people don't know it exists. It has a very definite, neighborhood-restaurant vibe. But, all that aside, the whole reason you go is for the food. If you picture in your head what Mexican food should taste like, this is it. There's nothing flashy or extraordinary. Just, the basics done right. Excluding food trucks, I think Rito's is the best Mexican food San Marcos. Very glad I stumbled across it.
