Food, drinks, and vibe were a 10/10! I would definitely recommend, especially for a date night. My fiancé and I came for our anniversary and had a fantastic time. Our server was attentive and had a great attitude. The general manager, Justin, was awesome & made sure we had a great experience. We'll definitely be back soon! P.s. try that carne asada plate & the potato flautas--you won't be disappointed! read more

Great little bat at the Farm House Collective - food was creative and the craft cocktails are very good. They had a selection of Mexican wine too. Worth the trip. read more

First time here at the farm house, boyfriend wanted a michelada so we stopped in here. We had the pleasure to be served by the bartender Jessica who we soon learned runs the bar program as well. First off it was the best michelada either of us had ever had. We also got the potato floutas which were amazing as well. The whole place was so cute and It was all around a great experience. we will for sure be back. Thanks again Jessica for the great service and great drinks!! read more

This spot was amazing! I drive by it every day and today I decided to stop in and give this outdoor place a try ! I stopped in at this bar for a drink and decided to try the food because I was starving ! OMG I walked into a hidden gem ! This food was surprisingly amazing and the drinks as well ! I would've taken a picture but I devoured all the food because it's so delicious. Stephanie was my bartender as well as Sheena and they were so great and welcoming and attentive. It's a must try.! read more

The carnitas, The carnitas took me back home, to where my family and I would spend our summers in Michoacán, I was not expecting this. I had the honor of talking with chef Ulises, turns out his family is from Michoacán, it's a good feeling knowing our food is making it and being treated with such high standards here at Bar Ni Modo, The dinks also you taste the quality. Bar Ni Modo thank you for welcoming us in with such hospitality and care. read more

LOVE this place. I have been. Many times and I get the carnitas every. Single. Time. It is SO GOOD. We tried some new menu items this weekend and they were also delicious. I have a small request: please bring back the old octopus tostada! It was so life changing that I have told everyone about it. I was so sad that it was no longer on the menu this weekend. I appreciate this establishment so much! read more

20 minutes after leaving the restaurant and having paid the bill and tipped already, these two young morons (males) accused us of not paying our bill, just as we were headed to the parking lot. Not good. No apology, no nothing. A**holes. read more

i based this on one employee, maybe the food is good but i didn't want to deal with the attitude of a male employee starting his shift that morning . we were in line waiting to be seated when a employee walked by and said " I hate this fukin place " read more

I came in on a Saturday around 1130 and the restaurant wasn't too busy yet. I loved the candles on every table and the lighting that gave the place a relaxed vibe. Now the food was amazing. I saw a post promoting the milanesa torta online and knew I had to try it. The food was fresh and came to the table quickly. The torta was flavorful and the milanesa was juicy and cooked perfectly. The salsa for the chilaquiles was tangy and not spicy. The pickled onions on the torta gave the sandwich a nice bite. My only complaint was that the bread fell apart making the torta even messier. I asked for a mocktail to go with my lunch and the waitress came back with a lovely pineapple drink. The pan de muerto was toasted perfectly and had a beautiful crème fraiche. The peaches were caramelized and the whole thing was topped with candied pecans. Every bite was amazing. The chef even walked around and asked everyone for feedback. I will definitely be back to see what else they cook up! read more

Great food and location especially with live music. The flautas, quesadilla and Australian wagyu carnitas were so delicious !!

Tried this place with a reservation a few months back. Food was decent, I enjoyed the carnitas. Drinks were excellent and service was great! We came back at around 9:30 on a Saturday night just for drinks. We stood at the vacant host stand for about 10 minutes where none of the servers acknowledged us as they saw us standing. We finally walked in and the friends of the staff who were waiting BEHIND us got seated with a friendly greeting. The servers continued to stare at us as if we weren't supposed to be there. Finally had to ASK a server and she sat us down. The drinks were solid. They closed the bar at around 10:30, where they clearly state they are open until 11:00. I was hesitant to leave this review as I really like the concept of this place, but they really need to reevaluate what kind of restaurant they want to be. read more

Been here a few times, and will be back many more. I love the authentic menu, everything is delicious. The drinks are so thought out and pair well with the food. Staff are amazing as well. Perfect spot for a date night. read more

Amazing food and drink!! Shena was amazing!!! Husband loved the carnitas La Fresa drink was soooo delicious I had two and could drink that all day read more

The ambiance and hospitality was pretty good but other than that save your money. When I went I had gotten the aguachile, quesadilla, and carnitas. They were, in my opinion, overpriced and poorly executed. I was pretty disappointed. The aguachile wasn't even prepared properly I'm not sure how they prep it but it was so chewy and was supremely raw (the shrimp was still grey) and it did not seem cured at all. The carnitas were really dry, and the quesadilla was mediocre. Honestly the best part of the meal were the salsas. This was honestly a let down since I have tried their other restaurants, Arcade, which I think are great. I think this was a great idea and the concept is really cool but the food was just not it. read more

We came here on our way back to LA. Just ask Chat GPT for recommendations for good Mexican food and cocktails and lead us to here. They made a a skinny spicy margarita and is delicious. We had the best Guacamole with salsa Macha. And my husband had the best breakfast burrito. The carne Asda is to die for too. I want a big thank you to our girl Selena for my free dessert Churros. They r the best !!! read more

Cute little spot in the farmhouse collective! Loved the set up of everything. Cocktail list was small, but I'm sure they could've made anything not on the menu. Lost me when I saw the mole margarita though. I got aguachiles and they have hibiscus in them- so they were pink. Honestly a little weird and not my favorite. This is my favorite dish elsewhere but this was a mistake in my opinion. Very pricey for any food item and expensive. My friend got small portion quesadillas. Those were fine. The service was great. It was slow in there but the host sat us immediately and the server was attentive. All in all I am glad I tried it but would try somewhere else before going there. read more

Second visit! Great date night spot. Enjoyed the special cocktails. Munched on the quesadillas. Treated by the corn ice cream. Lovely spot on a summer night and will be back soon. read more

Very cold customer service. Came on my husbands birthday and bartender did not talk at all. Other girl that was there took the menu out of my hands when I was still looking at it. Drink was okay. We were the only people in there so you'd think that they would be more outgoing. Would not go back based off service. read more

This food was sooooo disgusting! I should have taken a pic lol because we order several items on the menu and didn't eat any of them! We tried to but it was just horrible! Everything about it! I'm not even upset because the service was excellent and at least now we know. We still tipped well because we of feel bad for the server and host. Looking forward to trying the others restaurants at this location. read more

Really delicious cocktails and food. The plates are tapas size so I think they are fairly pricey. Ambiance is nice and service was fine (same folks at Arcade coffee roasters). Place is tiny so if doing a weekend evening you should def make a reservation. read more

we went during happy hour. the mole with carnitas was really fire. we got a paloma and como la flor mixed drink which was also really good. ximena was our server we love her!!! read more

Bar Ni Modo - Mole with carnitas - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Riverside, California

I went during their Bar Ni Modo x Aruba bar takeover - spectacular cocktails by Frida Lucia and Jessica! The food was incredible and complimented well with their drinks. Carnitas with mole and freshly made tortillas were the icing on the cake for this up-and-coming gem here in Riverside. The servers, bartenders, and chefs are kind and welcoming. And just the entire ambiance, good energy, and uniqueness of Ni Modo makes this a stand-out at Farm House! Will be back soon (frequently). read more

If you're looking to impress your girl and have some great drinks COME HERE!!! The drinks are 15/10 and the food is great. They have 10/10 service also definitely recommend. read more

Anywhere you sit at the Farm House Collective gives one a very comfortable vibe which is lacking when considering the rest of University boulevard here. It's like a safe little bubble away from it all, and Bar Ni Modo is no exception. Our service was great. I didn't get the hostesses name but she was really nice, blonde hair. Our waiter and busboy Aleks and Cameron were very cool as well. Loved our food which was tapas sized; perhaps not a place you want to go if you're really hungry. I don't drink alcohol so I had a mocktail instead. All in all it was a great evening. read more

Jess, freedom, Alyssa, Gabe, and Jimena were so welcoming! Definitely coming back! The drinks were so good too!!! Highly recommend it. 10/10

Food coming out looked good but didn't try. Atmosphere was good. Bar is small and offered craft beers. Good vibe. Need to try the food on my next stop. read more

Our experience here started off okay. We happened to be there right when it opened so it was just us at a table, a few customers outside, and a guy at the bar. The guy at the bar already seemed drunk and he wouldn't stop staring at me/ my chest. We tried to ignore him, but he wouldn't stop and when my sister asked him if he had a staring problem he took that as initiative to continue to stare and now openly talk to us. When we told our server we were uncomfortable and asked if this guy was a regular and constantly stared at women, he just laughed and said, "Yeah he's a regular. He's a looker." We just had a drink and left because clearly they valued his money over ours since he was a regular and they are aware that this guy makes other customers uncomfortable. They gave us a coupon for a free mole on our next visit for what I'm assuming is because of our situation, but I assure you we will not be back if they have regulars who don't leave women alone and staff that doesn't treat concerns with respect. The guy also moved seats at the bar when we left so he could see us walking around the rest of the Farmhouse Collective. He continued to wave at us and try to talk to us even when we weren't at the restaurant. Also it's a gentrified af Mexican restaurant with $25 octopus tostadas. This bar is owned by Arcade Roaster so do what you will with that info! read more

This spot is super cute, great service, perfect for a little date night spot. Wish they were open for lunch. read more

First time checking out Bar Ni Modo and it was a hit! My husband and I ordered the carnitas plate and it was SO GOOD. The plate came with three salsas and the salsa macha was my favorite! Ambiance and service are both wins too. We definitely will be back and recommending it to others! read more

Cool cocktail bar in the Farm House Collective. The food is good, but on the pricier end - the cheapest option is the $5 tacos which are solid. However, the draw here are the craft cocktails. I've had most of the specialty ones on the menu and they're all awesome - I'm partial to the Tequila Milk Punch! No draft beer, but a small selection of cans available (the ube coconut beer was absolutely lovely). Servers and bartenders are very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu (good for me who had a lot of questions) - shoutout to Mark, he's the man. Great place for a drink. read more

First time at Ni Modo for lunch. I had the carnitas with their freshly made corn tortillas. It was delicious with an assortment of chile toppings. Good vibe place located in the "Farmhouse Collective.' Good Service. read more

WOW what an amazing experience i want to take everyone I know here!! They've got a wide variety of drinks that I haven't tried until coming to Ni Modo, for example the Ube Coconut beer! Great ambiance and excellent service! ***** read more

Like this bar and restaurant a lot. A lot of unique ingredients from Mexican cuisine like Oaxaca cheese, heart of palm and some really nice interesting drinks. Great brunch too. Have gone three times so far and enjoyed every time, really pretty / interesting interior that feels refreshing. Usually have server Shayna who has been good and knows the menu good. Seems like a nice place for a party or to rent out, and it's fun to walk around Farmhouse Collective after. read more

Super friendly service! However, food was too limited and not very filling. No chips and salsa, needs a few more dishes on the menu. Corn ice cream was absolutely delicious tho! read more
