    A solid 10 out of 10! I've been on the hunt for a good Menudo spot for a while now, and I can honestly say the search is finally over. I walked into this little hole-in-the-wall restaurant, and the Menudo was absolutely delicious. The server was kind, polite, and very welcoming. When she took my order, she even asked if I wanted grano and patita--that's when you know you're about to get some authentic Menudo! The tortillas were homemade and full of flavor. I asked for extra lemons, and the server definitely delivered--I had plenty, along with all the toppings I needed. To start, I ordered chips and salsa for the table. The salsa was incredible--fresh, flavorful, and very spicy, so if your spice tolerance is low, tread lightly. I also tried a taco de cueritos, and it was so good! I honestly can't wait to come back, enjoy more Menudo, and explore the rest of the menu.

    This little corner spot is solid. I got me a carnitas burrito, they hook it up real fat. The flavor is solid in these carnitas, accompanied with beans and rice and some salsa, you can't go wrong. Not many Mexican options in Rialto but I can get behind this one. Carnitas Burrito: 8.0/10

    This food is the most authentic it gets.It's very delicious. They have the best carnitas and menudo!!! They have great service and they're on it. The restaurant is very vibrant and full of life. They also have a young lady in a beautiful dress that sings sometimes on the weekends. If you're in town you should definitely check them out. This is my favorite place to eat.

    I was drawn in by the decor don't be fooled it's not as authentic as it looks service was incredible but I'm here to eat please don't serve chips and throw some bland salsa in call them chilaquiles...

    Showed up at 6pm , maps says they closed at 7pm . Was really happy I found a carnitas spot near home but I guess I'll have to maybe try it another time ..

    Carnitas #1 family special

    We ordered the Carnitas #1 Family Special, which is advertised as a meal for two. The food itself was great--no complaints on taste or quality there. However, the sides were really underwhelming. The portions were super skimpy--especially the rice and beans, which came in what looked like salsa cups. Considering rice is one of the most inexpensive sides out there, it felt like they were cutting corners. For a meal that's supposed to serve two people, the sides just didn't measure up. A little more generosity would go a long way.

    Came here with my family. I had the Caldo de rez. It was really good. The meat was tender. My whole family liked what they had.

    Meat has no flavor carnitas specifically! Salsa has no flavor just spicy! I believe it can be better if add a bit more seasonings.

    Family owned and operated Mexican restaurant that specializes and Yucatecan cuisine (the sign says…read moreMayan food I'm naively assuming it's the same or similar). This place is located in strip mall out in Rialto. As soon as I walked in, I can tell this place was a chill place to eat with very friendly people serving you. I was really excited to sit down and order. I ended up getting the #9 (or #5? It's been a while and they're similar). Either way, this order gives you a good sample of a lot what they have to offer. If the #9, it comes with a panucho, a salbute, a polcan, an empanada de carne, a taco de cochinita de pibil, and a taco relleno. The amazing flavors and textures. I was like a kid in a candy store with this meal. Everything was delicious all washed down with the Modelo. It's a little far for me, but definitely would love to stop by again if I'm in the area or driving through.

    Long review but I think it's important to say what needs to be said:…read more THE SHORT VERSION; First time visiting this place since reviews were generally good and it's truly something special to see a restaurant specializing in Yucatecan food only. The food was different than your standard Mexican offering and overall very good, good seasoning and portions. Pricing was not out of what would be expected for quality Mexican food. The service, unfortunately, was half baked, which is really sad for me to see as a staunch supporter of local, immigrant owned businesses and being a child of immigrants myself and knowing how much hard work is involved in maintaining a business alive. THE LONGER VERSION; It was apparent that the waitress that served us during our visit could not only benefit from more training in offering (and caring to offer) a better customer service experience / better table side communication but also needs to make the connection about how her actions affect the livelihood of a business that others have undoubtedly worked very hard for. But, I guess this assumes she wants to genuinely work there. To begin with, my party was greeted by a poorly delivered and off putting joke about making sure she served us lots of alcohol; delivered in a way that in Spanish is known as "ser llevado" or overly familiar. Odd to make jokes like that when you just met someone visiting your business for the first time, but we passed it off as just a poor attempt to connect. Fine, we moved on. The music was extremely loud. When we asked if it could be lowered somewhat, she lowered the volume from an 11 to a 2, which then made the ask not only awkward but almost passive aggressive. (I only say this because once we left, we heard the volume quickly go back to 11, as if they were just waiting for us to leave to crank the volume back up again). The waitress did explain the dishes well, letting us know what the unique ones were. However, in the middle of our conversation a guy walked through the door and it was obvious that there's a connection between them because she then got more impatient explaining things to us as said guy moved to sit at a table towards the back of the restaurant. We completed our order, she served us and then kind of disappeared to wait on the other table, we thought. When she did happen to pass by our table again, I politely asked for additional plates and silverware, when she had a chance, to which she replied that I could pick them up myself from near the register area. Her response seemed out place since we were dining in and we were under the impression that she was our waitress, so I asked her again for silverware, not plastic utensils. Again, she told me that I could pick up plastic utensils myself from the register, pointing, "see they're right there" and walked away to the kitchen. We were still processing the exchange, a bit in disbelief, when she then appeared with requested silverware and additional plates but visibly annoyed and in some kind of hurry. It was really hard to focus on enjoying our meal after that. The waitress then made her way to the back table to sit next to, one could now only presume was her boyfriend, and we never saw her again. She never checked on us, asked if we needed anything, etc. Her priority was staying seated and chatting it up with that guy. Who did come to check on us was the owner, who seems to have cooked the meals and walked out of the kitchen to speak with us. He asked if we had enjoyed the food, if it was our first time there, talked about how he sourced his ingredients, shared some of the restaurant's history. Then he walked away to continue working. Unfortunately, we were forced to engage again with the waitress (who remained seated at the back table) and had to ask her across the restaurant where we should pay. Before she answered from her chair (didn't even get up to speak with us and was getting ready to yell back at us from her seat) the owner appeared at the register and told us we could pay with him. Unfortunately, the whole service experience did negatively color our desire to return to this place again. Giving more like 3.5 stars because the food was good but not enough to overlook the unpleasant service.

    I stopped by after a friend sent me a viral video showing their chili relleno burrito with carne…read moreasada, and it immediately caught my attention. When I arrived, I was a little confused about where to order since there's a window outside and also a small seating area inside where you can order as well. It wasn't a big deal, just a little unclear at first. I'll admit, my first reaction was to question the price. At $23, the burrito definitely isn't cheap. But once I got home and opened it up, I quickly understood why. This thing is massive, seriously like the size of a newborn baby! The burrito is absolutely loaded with all the goodness you'd expect: carne asada, chili relleno, and rice. Definitely a burrito you could easily share. My only real complaint is that they only gave me two small containers of hot sauce, which didn't feel like enough considering the size of the burrito and that it also comes with chips. Other than that, the food was delicious and the portion size is no joke. If you're a fan of big, flavorful burritos, this is definitely a must-try spot!

    Took one hour to get our food. It took that long for everyone else that was there too. I was…read morehopeful the enchiladas were similar to my mom's that passed away 9 yrs ago and was from Michoacán but once they added the hot salsa juice on top of the cabbage it made them more like crunchy quesadillas that got soggy, not at all an enchilada but decent flavor. The chicken that came with it was indeed bomb. Menu doesn't come with prices and the dishes are overpriced considering the food was not what expected. One enchilada plate, wet burrito, one kids plate , one beer and one orchata was $75, we added tip to that. My husband said his wet burrito was okay but since it was just okay and it was $25 not worth getting since it's just a burrito. They give you salsa ins containers smaller than the ranch containers to go and it makes it hard to eat chips and salsa off of them. The salsas for the chips are more for tacos than to dip in. Some ones else's fish tacos looked good and I thought I'd give them a try next time since this place is in my hometown but all in all I don't plan to come back in the near future because of how long it took to get our food at the end. I was worn out from waiting for my food with my restless toddler. ***I recommend not adding that steaming hot sauces to the enchiladas that turn them to shredded quesadillas and faster service.
