    I like the burritos from here and the salsa selection is good. They have four hot sauce offerings and each was really good on its own. I like the tortillas, they really hold up well and didn't rip at a time. The burrito filling is good but what I hate is that it wasn't consistent. Like I could have two ingredients throughout and get a pinch of avocado in the middle and a pinch of pico de gallo at the end. It's pretty uneven and that was disappointing. The staff is helpful and the dining room is clean... so I think I will be back and just mention that issue when I order. Hopefully that will improve the experience.

    Carne Asada Quesadilla

    Came into the blue burro to try the place out as I was in the shopping center and had never been there before. They have pretty good options with decent pricing for today's economy. The service was great and so was the food. I got a carne asada quesadilla and it was good. The combo came with fries and a drink. The ambiance was pretty generic for restaurants but the place was clean overall. They offer a sofa machine, but also have options of aguas frescas. Overall, good food, and good service.

    So...let me preface by saying I'm here like...at least 2-3 times a week. With that said, this is the healthiest, freshest, tastiest spot for burritos, tacos and taquitos. Also, my caramel iced offee made with cafe bustelo is a perfect addition. The service is ALWAYS the best. It's a great spot to hang and grrruuuubbb. I love this place soooo much. I can't get enough! My favorite are Blue's Famous Rolled Tacos and Adobada burrito. Yuuuuuummmm...

    100/10 Delicious! We ordered potato taquitos, surf and turf salad and taco, and carne Adobada tacos. Everything was made fresh, w/ quality ingredients.and great service! Very clean, indoor and outdoor seating.

    Surf and Surf -N-Turf Burrito

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Does it cost to park in the center and if so, do they validate?

    Parking is free! As of January 2025 University Village shopping center no longer charges guests for parking. 🎉

    Does it serve alcohol, micheladas?

    Not at this location.

    Anchos Southwest Grill & Bar: Phenomenal fresh food,…read moreincredible service, and nostalgia! I have been coming to Anchos Southwest Grill & Bar since they first opened! Even though it has been several years since my last visit after moving out to Palm Desert, coming back reminded me why this place is so special. Dean, the owner, greeted me personally, and just as always, the service was top-notch from start to finish. You can't beat those fresh, warm tortillas right off the tortilla press--absolutely divine! Pair that with their incredible, fresh Southwest flavor and the absolute best salsa in all of the IE and OC. And of course, the margaritas are still just as good as I remembered! We came in to celebrate my big sister's birthday, as Riverside was the perfect halfway point for everyone. Even with a party of 10, the entire staff handled our group flawlessly and made us feel so welcome. Thank you, Anchos, for continuing to deliver amazing food and hospitality after all these years. We LOVE your food! Arthur Cervantes, Broker

I guess with the theme of "homemade tortillas" they use them for everything including chips. Tacos hard shell, taste more like "flautas". Drinks are way "overpriced" for the size. We will never get an alcoholic beverage again. Table Salsa needs a fast makeover, it taste very blah, very mild and had a preservative/chemical taste. Quality vs. Popularity is taking over.

    I'm usually a little hesitant about going out for Mexican food because I cook a lot of it at home,…read moreso I'm harder to impress... But I'm glad we chose Ay Mi Pa for my friend's graduation celebration. We came around 6-7 PM on a Saturday and surprisingly there wasn't much of a dinner rush yet. The place is huge with lively music and definitely gives more bar/club vibes as the night goes on. The aguachile was really good and flavorful. We also tried the espresso martini, which was a little too bitter for me. I ordered the Spicy Soltera and they accidentally brought me a different drink first. They let me keep that one and still brought out the correct drink, which was nice of them. And wow... definitely one of the spiciest drinks I've ever had. But I can't really complain when "spicy" is literally in the name. We chose the Jefe Skillet. It's massive and could easily feed three people. All the meats were really flavorful, the guacamole was great, and even the complimentary chips and salsa were good. The rice and beans were pretty average, but everything else made up for it. Overall, great food, huge portions, and a really fun atmosphere for a celebration. 8.5/10

    Tio's Tacos -- what can I say? Funky, fresh, unique, and definitely a whole vibe…read more You're getting an experience here, not just tacos. The food was tasty and my pumpkin spice horchata was SO good, but honestly, I wouldn't come here just for the food. You come for the atmosphere, the art installations, the randomness, and the whole experience. We had fun eating, wandering around, and perusing all the quirky art after. It made for such a fun date night! I could also totally see this being a big group spot to grab tacos and beers, hang out, and catch up. The patios have a full-on party vibe, and inside is casual, lively, and fun. Basically, come for the tacos, stay for the chaos.

    Terrible customer service and a menu that doesn't explain their own rules…read more We ordered the potato tacos and asked if they could be made hard shell. The woman helping us immediately gave us attitude and said they "can't" do that because the potato tacos are premade. That explanation made even less sense once the food came out. My girlfriend's potato tacos were served flat/open, while my dad's meat tacos came out hot in hard shells. So they clearly have hard shells and are actively serving them--we were simply asking for potato instead of meat in one. And nowhere on the menu does it explain that this isn't possible. In fact, the menu specifically labels other items "2 SOFT TACOS" and "2 HARD SHELL TACOS," while the potato option simply says "2 TACOS." It doesn't say soft, doesn't say they're premade, and doesn't say hard shell isn't an option. If there's some legitimate kitchen reason they can't put potato in a hard shell, that's fine. Just explain it politely and put it on the menu. Instead, the woman acted like we were asking for something completely ridiculous and was unnecessarily rude about a very simple request. Customers shouldn't be expected to know your kitchen's unwritten rules and then get an attitude for asking a question your own menu doesn't answer. Fix the menu or fix the attitude. Preferably both. We definitely won't be coming back
