    Fresh conchas, soft and delicious
    M C.

    Food was good! My husband loved the burrito. Cute inside. The fresh horchata, cafe de olla and conchas were so so good! No tamales today but when we're back in town we'll go again for sure.

    Bacon breakfast burrito and churro latte.

    My granddaughters surprised me with a trip to Buenos Dias for coffee. I had my usual, cafe de olla but this time in Mexican pottery. My girls had their iced creamy sweetness ( can't remember the names on the counter) and a bagel and bacon breakfast burrito. Service continues to be stellar and I love the new umbrellas! I love sitting outside. See you soon!

    I'm glad I found Buenos Dias cafe. I always get their loaded burrito with ham & chorizo. They have plenty of options for proteins (ham, bacon, sausage, turkey, weenies) They have some seasonal drinks that rotate - I've really enjoyed the blueberry matcha latte (not a seasonal drink, they have it all the time) Sometimes they do a military discount when I'm in uniform & that's really great, I truly appreciate it!!!

    I came here on a Monday morning to get me a coffee and some breakfast. I ordered the "La Rubia y La Morena drink which I personally really enjoyed! I also purchased their loaded burrito w/ chorizo and I also really enjoyed it! I definitely do recommend this place if you're wanting to try a new coffee shop on the area. They also had pan Dulce on display along with other pastries! If you're one to be in a rush in the mornings I wouldn't recommend this place as I did have to wait about 15 minutes for my coffee and then I was also mistakenly given someone else's burrito at first. The ambiance of this coffee shop Is definitely an eye catcher as it is very "trendy" and worth visiting for those cute IG photos.

    One of my favorite coffee shops in Riverside is Buenos Dias Cafe. Established in 2024 and owned by Mexican Latinas, this place brings a great Mexican twist to coffee. They offer drinks like horchata latte, dulce de leche latte, churro latte, and other unique flavors that you don't usually see at typical coffee shops. Their food is just as good too. I ordered the chilaquiles along with a churro latte and both were excellent. A fun surprise today was that the barista happened to be the sister of one of my basketball players, and she signed fluently to take my order, which was a great bonus for me. The shop might be located in a slightly unexpected area, but it's absolutely worth the visit if you're anywhere near downtown Riverside or just in the city in general. Great drinks, great food, and a welcoming atmosphere. I've also heard they have another location in Colton too.

    Plain bagel and cream cheese perfectly toasted.

    Cozy neighborhood cafe thats brightly decorated with traditional and contemporary Mexican art. The menu has a nice variety of Mexican favorite tortas, burritos and chilaquiles with your choice of proteins including weenies! Also a nice selection of poncho options like bagels or avocado toasts! Very witty and clever. Loved the horchata latte as well as a great selection of teas. The staff were all friendly and helpful. I would give them 5 stars except items were missing from our order. They were nice enough to fix the problem without question when I asked for the missing items.

    I came here to try their breakfast burritos and wow were they delicious!! I decided to get a strawberry matcha and that was so good! The employee recommended it and she did a great job! She was kind and helpful! The protein I chose for my breakfast burrito was turkey and that was yummy! It also had breakfast potatoes and egg inside! It is small inside but they have tables inside and outside! They also have a parking lot! I can't wait to come back!

    new obsession! I've always passed by this area but never actually stopped to check out what it was. Who knew we had this little hidden gem all along. First off, my favorite thing here is definitely the food. It's not often you see a place offer weenies as a protein for a burrito. It's simple yet so good and reminds me of being a child eating weenies and eggs. Their burritos are also pretty big so it's definitely worth it. I tried their chicken tamale as well and loved it. For my drink I ordered an iced matcha with oat milk and vanilla. I do tend to like my matcha pretty sweet and it wasn't really doing it for me upon first sip. I did ask for more vanilla syrup and then it tasted fine. I like that they also offer agua frescas. Last time I came I got my mom horchata and it tasted really good. It's just a nice little spot to hangout and get some brunch. :)

    This lil' Latin Café is located on the corner of 14th St. & Grove Ave. across the street from Abraham Lincoln High School with plenty of parking on both sides of the building. No drive-thru. The Café is on the smaller side yet enough tables to enjoy your meal, as well as outdoor seating. Clean and organized. All drinks are 16 oz, served hot or iced. My sister brought me here for coffee this morning. I tried their 'Breakfast Burrito with Bacon', an iced 'La Rubia y La Morena' drink (which is a Caramel Macchiato), and a 'Cinnamon Muffin' for the road. The burrito was incredibly delicious, simply satisfying. The Macchiato was one of the best I've had. Prices are reasonable. The service was great. Shout out to 'Araceli', who was very welcoming and friendly. Overall, we had a good breakfast experience here and will definitely return to try other menu items.

    Went here because it was near my school and wanted a quick coffee. The ambiance was super cute and they were decorating for Christmas. It seemed busy for a Monday morning and there was a lot of people so I was scared of it not being fast as I was in a hurry. I got the La Güerita latte (vanilla bean latte) and a pumpkin empanada. The latte was overly too sweet for my liking and you could not taste the coffee. It came with cold foam which was my fault I didnt know it did. The empanada was good. I feel like my rating is only based on their coffee and their food may be way better but from a coffee standpoint, not the best and not my favorite.

    Loaded breakfast burrito with ham and bacon.

    We ordered a loaded breakfast burrito, a Vietnamese coffee, and a pumpkin horchata latte. The Vietnamese coffee was really good. The burrito tasted great and it had plenty of bacon and ham. However, all of the avocado and sour cream was on one end of the burrito. My husband and I split it, and my end had no avocado or sour cream. The salsa verde that they gave us on the side has great flavor. The red salsa doesn't have enough flavor. I disliked my pumpkin horchata latte. It didn't taste like pumpkin or horchata to me. Just had a really odd flavor that I can't describe. Definitely wouldnt order it again.

    Rosa V.

    I absolutely enjoyed this place! Coffee was great. Smooth good flavors. I love that they offered Cafe de la olla. I had the horchata latte absolutely decadent of flavor! Service: friendly, helpful. Ambience: chill calm

    Chilaquiles rojos
    Christina V.

    I was pleasantly surprised by this cafe! I stopped by and decided to try their coffee and study. The chilaquiles made me curious because I thought that was more restaurant vibes, and this is a coffee shop. Wow I'm so happy I tried them, the red sauce was so fresh tasting and they were delicious! And I judge restaurants based on their chilaquiles, well these were better than many I've been too! Perfect portion size and 10/10. I ordered the churro latte and it was also very good, not too sweet which was perfect for me. I will definitely return and recommend to others! PS the staff was very helpful and friendly, which was a major plus!

The music was loud and made me think it would be best for a club atmosphere? Maybe it was just me but I felt anxiety eating because the music was so upbeat and loud. Music is a big part of the eating experience. I know some people may be fine with it. For example, we had breakfast at Tio's Taco and the music was spot on for the dining experience.

I found out about it through my cousin, who's a UCR alum, and I'm really glad I finally got to try it. The staff were super nice and attentive, constantly coming by our table to check if we needed more water, tortillas, or anything else we might want. Even with how busy it was, they still made sure everyone was taken care of, which I really appreciated. The restaurant was packed, and it actually surprised me because I don't usually see that many people at restaurants in Riverside. The energy inside felt lively but still comfortable. One of my favorite parts was the fresh tortillas. They come out hot and fresh from the oven, and you can literally watch them being made right in front of you, which made it even better. And the best part is they're free. We ordered the carne fajitas and chile relleno. The fajitas were incredible, the meat was juicy, tender, and packed with flavor, with that perfect smoky sear that comes from being cooked fresh on a hot skillet. Everything came out sizzling and stayed flavorful with every bite. The chile relleno was also really good, with a nice balance of savory and slightly creamy filling that paired well with the sauce. It was actually my first time trying fajitas, and I can confidently say I'll be ordering them again the next time I come back. I definitely plan on returning while I'm still at UCR to make up for all the years I didn't know this place existed.

We have not been here since the 90's and I have to say, it was much better back then. All in all, there is just no flavor. The salsa tasted like watery tomatoes, our waitress gave us a little side of habanero salsa to incorporate with it but that heat is the extreme for me. We ordered the Mesquite chicken and steak fajitas which were less than average. Not sure if it was just a bad day, but the taste of the protein did not match up to the wonderful smell of BBQ outside the restaurant. The tortillas were just ok, first batch was not even warm. My Michelada was good though. Bummer visit after being away for so long. Looks like the interior could stand a makeover.

So you'll see lids and the other material from cans beautifully molded into these structures. It may seem random but I found lots of humor and play thrown into the craftsmanship of it all. Some pieces are like playing I Spy. It was funner to see than a lot of museums I've gone to actually. It's truly just packed with art. I even got to meet one of the artists as he was working on something. He was really friendly. There's a few of them who work on them together and I learned they've been doing this since the 90's!
