Located in University Village right off the 60/215 FWY near UCR with plenty of parking. I stopped here for lunch not expecting much, but I was wrong...the food was really good. They serve Burritos (including breakfast), tacos, quesadillas, rolled tacos, enchiladas, salads, wraps, protein bowls, iced coffee, and shakes. I had the Carne Asada burrito, and it was perfect...packed with fresh steak, salsa fresca, and legit guacamole. The staff is super friendly, from the register to the cook, making it a really welcoming atmosphere. Clean, cool vibe, and plenty of indoor/outdoor seating. Overall, I had a good lunch experience here and will definitely be back. read more

While the location is ideal and the place is clean and cute, the food is not good especially for the price. I ordered the surf and turf and it was a salad wrapped in a tortilla-- little to no meat. My husband and mom ordered breakfast burritos and they stated the eggs and meat lacked flavor. The green salsa was good the red had no flavor and the fries were tasty. read more

Blue Burro - Surf and Surf -N-Turf Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Riverside, California

I am honest when I say that I was expecting more for something that cost me this much. I spent 16 and a half dollars on a Surf and Turf bowl that was smaller than something I could have gotten from a fast food restaurant. The only thing that I felt was positive was the smiling staff. read more

I recently tried this place my husband and I and we loved the potato tacos they were filling and had lots of fresh toppings and guacamole I just wish they were crunchier. We also ordered the surf and turf fries and I'm so disappointed to report that their shrimp tasted slightly fishy but I still ate it because I don't like wasting food I think it might of have been the last day they had to use that shrimp before it went bad bummer but I think we will be back to try more. The service staff was also friendly read more

First impression walking in, I was hopeful because customer service was really great. Bright atmosphere with super friendly and welcoming workers. However, food was just OK. My husband got a carne asada burrito w/ beans. Most of his bites were just guac and the tortilla which was kind of a let down. We also ordered a side of fries and ended up getting chips instead. I will say the carne asada fries made up for it; they were pretty good. Other than that, I won't be going out of my way to come back here but I'm intrigued to see how the other food tastes. read more

Stopped by here on a whim. I was looking for breakfast burrito and this place seemed decent. It is located in the university village shopping center with lots of food options. Loved the vibe here. They had good music playing and since they had just opened, I was one of the first customers of the day. The gentleman helping me was very nice. It looked like they had an ordering kiosk as well but I didn't use it. I ordered the chorizo burrito. I wish I would have payed better attention because on Tuesdays they have $2 iced coffee. Would have loved to get one but I had already ordered and paid. I just had to wait a short time and my order was ready. Took my burrito back to the office and it was pretty good. It wasn't super greasy as expected. It had chorizo, hash brown, cheese and egg. I enjoyed it very much and would love to go back to try some lunch options and maybe an iced coffee. read more

I was skeptical about trying this place out based on the name "blue burro" and the appearance not being very "authentic" looking but I'm GLAD I did. I've been here a few different times and everything has been amazing, from their agua frescas to their salsas. The employees are always super friendly and helpful. I'll continue to be back read more

Stopped by for the first time and decided to order the breakfast burrito online (love that it's served all day!). It was a great choice -- generous portion, perfectly warm and soft tortilla, and packed with flavor. I really appreciated that it wasn't greasy like some other spots -- just a clean, satisfying bite from start to finish. Service was friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant itself looked spotless, which definitely stood out to me. Overall, great first impression! I'll absolutely be back to explore more of the menu -- if everything else is as good as that burrito, I might've just found a new go-to spot. read more

I recently purchased a burrito from this place. I was excited to try it after seeing many good reviews. I drove there and picked it up myself. I ordered a Carne Asada burrito and then drove back to work to enjoy it. The size seemed fair, not too small or too large, about what I expect from a shop like this. Let me start by saying, I expected to enjoy this. I mean, I haven't had too many bad burritos. I can't remember the last time I had one I did not like. Until now that is. This was gross. It had a fishy smell to it. It had a fishy taste to it. I can totally tell that they cooked my asada steak meat without cleaning the flat stove off of the last fish taco or shrimp food they cooked. Now I like a shrimp burrito, and I love fish tacos, but I do not like my Carne Asada burrito to smell and taste like fish. It was so off putting that I could not eat it. Straight in the trash it went and I will not be back to the Blue Burro again. Its been several weeks since I ate there and just typing this out is making my stomach do flops. read more

I am very glad that I happened across this option at University Village! I was impressed by the freshness of the Pollo Asada Burrito and the Shrimp Salad Wrap. There a subtle uniquess of flavor in the meal, and the blue horchata really stood out as a tasty and unique treat! The service was prompt and friendly, and the atmosphere was fun My only complaint is that I don't believe there was a good mild option of salsa, to go with the chips in the combo. However, I believe that there are $7 salad wrap combos without chips, and I certainly plan to return! read more

I wanted to check Blue Burro out since I kept seeing the food and drinks on Instagram. Let me just say, it wasn't what I expected. The food is very average tasting and you don't get a lot of meat. I got the surf and turf fries and it was mostly fries unfortunately. It was also a small portion for $16 and nothing really tasted amazing. My husband got the chorizo breakfast burrito and he opened it up to add salsa and it was mostly tortilla. What a bummer, I had high hopes for this spot. I also got a pineapple milkshake and it lacked pineapple flavor. The staff is super friendly, but I don't think I will be back. There's better Mexican spots around the area with more meat for the same price. read more

We went in to finally try this spot and it did not disappoint. The cumber pineapple water is DELICIOUS and the Campechana burrito was yum! The burritos are a bit on a smaller side but very good. The service was also great. I think the person who took our order was named Nick. (It was the evening of 12/5 around 7pm) I even thanked him for his amazing service which is so rare to come by. The restaurant was busy with people. Overall great experience. read more

Great service!! They were extremely kind and offered sample cups to try their blue horchata, strawberry horchata, and agua fresca. We stopped by and got a blue and strawberry horchata because we were curious about the new place. It was a pleasant surprise and decked out in bright blue giving an inviting atmosphere! Will definitely be back to try their tacos and burritos. read more

What a great place for breakfast burritos! I have had it thrice and have had their catering brought to UCR. Wonderful staff and team who deliver the burritos right to you and they're so communicative and kind! Since then, I come back for their insanely packed breakfast burritos. That and their salsa is out of this world and a must try! read more

Blue Burro! Delicious burritos and carne asada fries. The service was outstanding I believe Edgar took our Oder and easy to speak with . The vibe and cleanliness was also cool. The only thing I would consider in improving it the spicy salsa. Could have a better taste. read more

Great Food, But a Bit Pricey The food here was delicious! I especially enjoyed the tacos--the meat was tender, flavorful, and the salsa added a nice kick. Each taco was $4, which felt a little steep, so I only ordered two. That said, they were generously sized and satisfying. We also tried the carne asada fries, which were tasty but also on the pricier side for the portion size. The interior was clean and well-kept, and the cashier was super friendly--he even gave us some great recommendations. My brother Joel and I enjoyed it though, Overall, if you've got some extra cash to spare, this spot is definitely worth a try. Would I go again? Maybe--if the prices come down a bit! read more

Husband and I came here after he sent me a TikTok. I LOVE horchata. But blue horchata?! We had to try it. DELICIOUS!! As well as the blue horchata shake! 10/10 Husband got the surf and turf burrito which he said was delicious. He said he would def get it again. I got the blues famous rolled tacos. This was enough for 2 meals if I say so myself. 5 rolled tacos with asada, shrimp and all the fixings. Customer service was exceptional! The place wasn't empty but we didn't wait too long for our food either read more

Food wasn't great. Expensive and definitely not what we expected. Shake was the best thing we ordered.

Awesome burritos made with awesome tortillas. The nachos I got were also pretty good. 3 bucks to make a combo.

10/10 amazing as always. Love the staff and love the food the special sauce is the best with this meal. read more

I came across Blue Burro on a social media reel. My friend and I decided to give it a try. The place was clean! The nice young lady at the counter explained their menu and gave us tips on their most popular items. I opted for an california burrito. The asada had tons of flavor! Plus side is the burrito was hot! Which means they made it all when I ordered and it hadn't been sitting. Habanero salsa was delicious. My son got the quesadilla and his 7yr old opinion was ,"mom this is so good." My friend got the asada fries which were fine. I'm more of an authentic Mexican food lover. So the taco cart in the hood is more my style. However, this place is great for a quick fix. I would definitely return if I was in the area. read more

Food is very good. Cute spot and friendly people. their Carne Asada french fries are my favorite but everything I've had is very good.

Amazing , got the surf n turf burrito , and fries with a shake . Everything was perfect, customer service was great and I'll definitely be heading back. read more

I had an exceptional dining experience at this taco restaurant. The service was outstanding -- Nick provided some of the best hospitality I've experienced in quite some time. The food was flavorful, well-prepared, and served promptly. The salsas complemented the dishes perfectly, enhancing the overall meal. The ambience was warm and inviting, creating a comfortable and enjoyable dining atmosphere. I look forward to returning and exploring more items from their menu. Highly recommended. read more

This spot is new in University Village and it is so good! Carne asada cooked perfectly and full of flavor, they do not skimp on the toppings. The green salsa is so delicious on everything. The rolled taco are perfectly crispy and piled high with toppings. The guacamole is fresh. All 3 of the Agua Fresca flavors are so good. Get the Dubai shake it is so good (beware of the gold powder though it got on my cloths and made a bit of a mess)! Great service, very friendly & welcoming. read more

The food here was pleasantly delicious and extremely inexpensive for the portion sizes and flavor. For the low price of $7 a burrito and drink, my dad and I had a great time. The service here is also very attentive, with one person at the front to help at all times. My dad enjoyed the overall atmosphere of the restaurant as he likes Breaking Bad, and found the decor funny. Would come again. read more

Let me just say customer service is spectacular. The gentleman taking orders and assisting in the kitchen was helpful, friendly, and funny. I got the Campechana burrito and my kiddo got the rolled taquitos. Delicious on both! It's a little out of our way for our typical errands, but I think it's definitely worth it. Restaurant is clean and spacious and plenty of places to sit inside. Will be back, soon! read more

I expected way more from a $20 burrito, especially from a place that supposedly specializes in them. With all the hype online, I thought I was about to have something worth the money. I ordered a California burrito, usually my go-to, but this was an absolute disaster. Easily the worst burrito I've ever had. It was sad, limp, and barely warm. Mostly just a thick, doughy tortilla stuffed with sour cream and the tiniest amount of meat. It was so overloaded with sour cream it was almost inedible, like biting into a cold, soggy mess. The salsas somehow made it worse. Watery, bland, and weirdly bitter. I felt genuinely grossed out eating it. I used to think Alberto's was the bottom of the barrel, but this place takes the crown. Jilberto's down the street is cheaper, bigger, better, and actually tastes like food. I wouldn't wish this burrito on anyone. Update next day we've got food poisoning from here. read more

We ordered via Grubhub today, the order was filled incorrectly & items missing. I had the chicken quesadilla, the meat was to salty to eat, I had to throw it away. The Pollo asada burrito was only a small amount of chicken & guacamole, nothing else. Again that chicken burrito was way to salty. The rolled beef taco & chicken taco meals were also salty, my young niece's could not finish them. We will not be ordering from this resturant again, first impression and you lost us. All of these glowing reviews makes me think they were written by staff and/or family. Guess you can't believe everything you read. read more

New spot grand opening so went there to try it out. My wife and I got caramel iced coffee and a vanilla iced coffee, both were fantastic. Got a breakfast burrito and a Carne Asada taco. Food was very very good. The menu looked really interesting, everything from rolled tacos to breakfast burritos, milkshakes, fries. Definitely going back, stoked to have them in the neighborhood! read more

I was curious about this new place, as I had never seen it until recently. The layout and decor were all in blue and white; bright. I took a look at the menu and saw how most of the menu was Mexican dishes. Cashier asked me if I had been there before. I said I hadn't. He then proceeded to ask me I wanted recommendations. I said sure and he recommended the carne asada fries and the burrito. I got the regular size carne asada fries. He asked me if wanted sauce and I told him to give me the spiciest one, which is the habanero. I asked if I could have tomato added to it and he said yes. Food took a bit to be prepared. I got my food and ate outside. Off the bat, I noticed it wasn't the best presentation. This is probably because I wanted it to go. The cheese wasnt melted and just sprinkled on there. I wasn't a fan of that. I took a bite and nothing seemed special about it. Just regular carne asada fries. I added the habanero and was disappointed that it wasn't spicy, I get that it is maybe because people can't have really spicy. I was a decent portion, so I had some to take home. Overall, it is a fine place and I can't complain. read more

Went to University Village to try a different restaurant, but left that place because we walked in and nobody was there to seat us.

Great service, good portion size, meat was really good as well. Much better than Albertos or other similar Mexican type food I've had in the area. The restaurant was clean and well maintained.
