There's plenty of seating inside, along with two private restrooms. A nice touch is that the sinks are located outside the bathrooms, making it easy for customers to wash their hands without waiting for a restroom to open up. Their menu is fairly extensive and includes all the typical dishes you'd expect from a Mexican restaurant. I did find the prices to be a bit higher compared to similar spots, but I don't mind paying more when the quality and flavor justify it. They also offer Taco Tuesdays from 3-9 PM, Thursdays from 4-9 PM, and happy hour Monday through Thursday from 4-8 PM. We ordered the carnitas street tacos and chicken rolled taquitos. Shortly after being seated, our server brought out complimentary chips and salsa. The chips tasted fresh, and the salsa had great flavor. The tacos were enjoyable overall, but unfortunately the taquitos fell short. They had a good crunch, but were pretty bland on their own and needed salsa to add flavor. This probably wouldn't become one of my regular spots, but I'd come back occasionally to try other menu items. read more

I recently hired this restaurant for catering an event with 250 guests and was extremely disappointed with the service. The caterers arrived nearly two hours late, which significantly disrupted the entire event schedule. They brought only two servers for a large crowd of 250 people and ran out of chips midway through service. When I addressed the delays, they took no responsibility and repeatedly claimed they had been given the wrong address. I provided a copy of the signed contract clearly showing the correct address, but this did not resolve the matter--only more excuses followed. Once their excuses were proven incorrect, they then falsely accused me of being intimidating and raising my voice. Despite paying a substantial amount for the event, I was simply holding them accountable to the contract they had agreed to. The food itself was mediocre. Combined with the poor planning, inadequate staffing, and complete lack of accountability, the experience fell far short of professional catering standards. I will not be returning to this restaurant or using their catering services in the future, and I strongly recommend that others consider alternative options. read more

DO NOT BOOK TO CATER. They were late, over an hour. They had terrible mass catering strategy. They were short on condiments, chips. And worst of all, they took 0 accountability for poor customer service. read more

This restaurant crew works hard at providing quick service, a very clean environment, and quality food. Ede, the owner, is personable & committed to the community she serves. read more

I can't handle complainers who may have simply ordered the wrong thing for them. These small businesses are full of hard working people who are trying to make it on their own. I love their carnitas tostadas. A tostada needs to be eaten in the restaurant to maintain crunch. Their's is delicious. read more

Overpriced and fcuking tiny "super" burrito. If I'm paying over 20 bucks for a single meal and drink then I expect it to be bigger then the turd I left in the toilet this morning. Save your money and go somewhere else. read more

The supper burrito had very little meat. The avocado and sour cream was plopped in the middle of the burrito only with LOTS of rice in the whole burrito. Quesadilla Had no flavor to it at all. Clean place and nice staff but the Just wasn't good food, and the price you pay for their food it should be a lot better go somewhere else read more

The food is absolutely delicious. The staff is always friendly, kind and courteous, and willing to do anything to help your dining pleasurable read more

Good food and lots more than you can eat. All hot and presentable cute little place in downtown Ripon

Smallest taco salad I have ever experienced. The whole idea of this plate is a salad. The shell is soft and soggy. Chewable I guess to last in your mouth because it was not made to eat. It's more like a heavy tostada. I keep trying this place and have not written about it but time I do. Was hoping expanded location thee would be much improvement. read more

I've always enjoyed eating at new places, especially when it comes to tacos. When I entered the establishment, I was greeted right away, but with very little excitement. Not as the second customer that came in after me. Of course, it was his bday and he seemed to be family. Here is the thing. If we all learn to treat everyone with the same energy, it makes everything worth going there. Secondly, it could be someone else's birthday, but no way to know that right? That's why treating everyone with a good level of energy, and a smile makes everyone feel welcome. And yes it was my bday also. The place is very near and clean. They had good music, and it was nice. The waitress took my order, and that's where I was a little shocked. She was polite, but I ordered four tacos, and a Pepsi in a can. Nothing was really offered and I saw they had fountain drinks after. So, four tacos. Small tortillas, asada, and one Pepsi in a can. $17.00 plus dollars. Wow! I get the inflation times we are in. I know that the prices for meat, have gone up. I know that the overhead cost may have gone up also, but four small tacos with a Pepsi can should not be $17.00. That's as much as a carne asada plate. That's at least 5 to 6 ounces of steak, a spoon or two of rice, it often comes with beans, a small side of veggies like lettuce, tomatoes, onions, avocado, and more often than not, sour cream. How does 8 small tortillas, with a small portion of carne asada, and green salsa compare to that in cost? Not even in labor. How can families of four or six fit in pictures such as these if they live paycheck to paycheck? How did the tacos taste? I've had better for a third of the cost, at a restaurant (current time), but they are not bad. Cut the oil back that drips out of them as you eat them, and it would be a bit better. Take some of the fat out and replace it with meat, and it will be a better quality taco. The price, I know it is only my personal opinion, but the math does not math-up. This seems to happen more often now because people have become slightly careless, and greed is everywhere in today's world. The last statement is not directed to this restaurant at all, but it is in relation with the food industry everywhere in our present day. Do I recommend them? Yes, of course. I am only grading one dish. Not the entire menu. read more

Amazing tasting food after a good long days work. Very kind courteous and welcoming employees Horchata is clutch !! read more

Honestly the whole visit was awful. The food, the portions, and the cost most of all were just absolutely ridiculous and awful. We order dinner and received NO BEANS OR RICE with our dinner entrees, which on the sign posted above says it COMES WITH. So for $77 dollars my family got 2 orders of taquitos and an order of carnitas. That means an order of 4 taquitos was around $15?! That's insane, disappointing and disgusting. We will never be back and hope you know we went to Esmeralda's right after to get some good food and treated well! read more

Very overpriced... food subpar and lacking flavor. ordered taquitos 4, miniature in size with no sides for 15 dollars... since they moved location a major ripoff. chicken in taquitos was flavorless and dry. had to go to another restaurant after, not enough food for the price, left hungry and disappointed. read more

I went to their new location today for the first time. They had four breakfast burritos on the menu. One was ham and egg for $14.95. I asked her if I could get that but add some potatoes to it and she said sure. She placed the order and then came back and charged me $20.95. I wasn't in the mood for an altercation, but I won't be back. read more

I've been so excited to try this place so I finally took a walk over and unfortunately was informed that both their rice and their beans have lard AND chicken stock in both of them. Just a heads up for fellow vegetarians that this is not a spot for us. read more

I went to this location for lunch time and it look like it was lunch time for the high school students and as I'm waiting for my order the lady in the register was so mean giving the student attitude she need to have better service with the students. read more

Discriminatory against service dog handlers. Even with service dog welcome signs everywhere they refused service even after answering legal questions. Told us we could sit outside with my service dog and eat THIS ONE TIME. Owner tried to invalidate everything I said. Again, my dog is a MEDICAL ALERT service dog SHE IS TASK TRAINED. If you are a handler avoid at all costs. read more

Best chili reynos and tamales in town.

The food was so gross and greasy. Also filled with cockroaches. Don't eat here if you value your health

I was a bit unsure after reading the other reviews but on Friday night in Ripon after 8P the options get slim so why not and this was an okay decision. If you can imagine going to a taqueria in Mexico that's what this place looks like inside. I ordered pastor & not sure what meat I got but it was alright. I wasn't given any chips with my super burrito or 3 pollo asado tacos which is weird to me because I've always been given chips at taquerias but whatever. The salsa's were good & the prices were fair. Not the best but I've had worst. read more

Came here to try there taco Tuesday and it wasn't really all that great. I didn't like it was only Carne asada tacos that were $1 and any other meat was $3. Plus if you paid with your debit card there was a 3.99 fee which seems a little excessive. read more

This place has the absolute worst customer service in town. Yes dollar taco night is a good deal, but they are so slow! Most of the time they don't answer their phone and if they do, they are rude! Trust me. Pay more and go to a different place in town. I can't deal with the two kids standing behind the counter literally staring at the cooks! How about you answer the phone? Or get napkins for the guy waiting.... or go help! Sheesh. Officially done with this place. read more

The taco truck tacos are really good and are only a dollar on taco Tuesday. Really good breakfast burritos too. Super friendly.

Im not sure what has happen to this place but the last three times we have been it has been quit the debacle. Our order is always wrong, we have to ask for things that we have ordered people getting served the wrong food, and then orders being filled out of sequence and then you have to wait for your food while . We will not be going back So sad that something so good and convient has fallen to the waist side when the mother use to work there she ran a tight ship and everything was wonderful read more

Went in for a late lunch. Service was fast and friendly. Chips were a mix of fresh and over cooked corn chips. Salsa was tasty and had decent heat. I ordered fish tacos. They came out with green sauce that was ok and some pico de gallo salsa that tasted like the store bought kind with may be some preservative in it. The tacos had what looked like breaded fish sticks that were chopped up and topped with shredded cabbage. I'm not hungry anymore. I probably won't try this one again. read more

I am new to the Central Valley. I discovered this place while in ripon getting a massage. The first two times I went, I enjoyed it quite well. Went back for a third time and brought a friend. First thing she said was "What is this? Spicy ketchup?" They changed the salsa. It was gross. Like watered down spicy ketchup. I ordered carne asada crispy tacos. The carne asada was mostly beef Jerky with some fat. I thought eh it's a fluke. The first two times were great. Tried it again on Tuesday. The salsa was spicy ketchup again. Gross. Same jerky carne asada and the beans were sour. I thought maybe they had lime in them? Or spoiled? Oh! I paid $4.50 for a bottle coke. That is ridiculous. No refills. Well, those beans must have been spoiled because my son and I have both had stomach issues since Wednesday morning. We visited Tuesday night. When I say stomach issues I mean like food poisoning issues. Not to mention the place needs some upkeep. The AC unit is falling out of the ceiling. The only positive is that every time I've been there, they were friendly. read more

Best tacos in the world, I want them everyday. The only thing that sucks is corona which closed them down for a while. :(... :)

Tried this place for the first time. I wanted spicy salsa for my tacos, they charged extra for the salsa. Not worth paying extra for the salsa, salsa was disgusting. Also food is overpriced. Can get better Mexican food somewhere else in town. Not coming back again. read more

overall an ok place. Standards have slipped since the owners new restaurant in Ceres has opened. Multiple times in the recent past details have been off such as fridge cold cheese in my burrito as if it was an after thought, or messing up to go orders. Tacos are a safe bet here everything else is 50/50 depending on the day. Picture below is the unrelated cheese a common problem here read more

Cockroaches !! Not just one , oh no ! I killed three with my foot while my Mom used the restroom. I was so shocked, I saw so many crawling. Walked outside and tossed the food. That was on 9/2. This place is should be closed and fumigated ASAP !!! No Stars read more

Walked in with my Pops for lunch. Walked out grinnin'. Ede's IS good, plain and simple. Did not do my usual bathroom check so I can't really say they have one. The restaurant itself was clean and maintained. I noticed a patio outside but we chose to sit in and peruse the menu while we ate. Bebidas(Drinks): Negra Modelo on tap is like winning the lottery, well close anyway. Bohemia IS like winning the lottery! Any Mexican joint that serves Bohemia is already ahead in the game as far as I am concerned. Sadly, many do not so Negra is more common. But I win on this day :) Comida(Food): Chips, Salsa, Frijoles(Beans): Chips are hot, fresh and crispy. Thin style similar to Chevy's. Salsa had great flavor but needed more heat for my dad and me. Understandable considering the demographic of Ripon however. Holy Frijoles! Beans are critical to any self respecting Mexican establishment. Unfortunately, Lard is a bit of a pariah in this day (of yoga) and age (of No GMOs). Mexican cuisine is NOT diet/health food by nature so you're kidding yourself if you think a few grams of lard is gonna be the straw that broke your burro's back. Relax, that's what Diet Coke is for right? Lay off the chips or save up your daily points/calories and treat yourself. We only go around once after all. Besides, you can't get any better on the flavor/texture scale than lard. If the beans are runny, that's oil. If the beans are like wet cement, that's just gross. Most places don't do it right, Ede's does. Tacos, Tacos, y Mas Tacos: Between my Dad, Me and My Mom's To-Go Order, I think we got em all. I ordered the small Taco Truck Tacos and Dad got the Regulars (American size). Regulars have extra ingredients like lettuce and onions. And of course, they are larger. I got those sweet little numbers you get off a legit Mexicano Truck. No Fuss, No Muss. As they had Lengua, Pastor, and Chorizo, I felt it necessary to do my part for mankind and get all three. They also had the more common Asado (Beef), Pollo (Chicken), and Carnitas (Pork) Lengua: Perfect flavor and Tenderness simply dressed on a fine corn tortilla. Flavors complemented each other while keeping the Lengua in the spotlight. Pastor: Pastor, for those who don't know, is marinated pork that is vertically spit-roasted like shawarma or gyro meat. Not sure if this particular piggy was cooked in such a manner, but it was tasty nonetheless. Again, simply dressed on the same little corn tortilla. Chorizo: Mexican Chorizo is a childhood favorite of mine and in this case, and really hit the spot.. Pan Fried to a point where it was crispy but moist. Chorizo quickly turns to carbon if you orvercook it and you are left with a pile of acrid tasting charcoal. Not good. Ede's simple yet well balanced Chorizo Taco is dressed like the previous two on the same corn tortilla and fired on all cylinders. Dad ordered Lengua Tostada and a couple Tacos like mine. The tostada looked like a tostada and my Dad looked like a happy man. We asked our server, Yavida (sorry if I got that wrong), who was very gracious and friendly. I would not hesitate to go back to Ede's even though there are two more Mexican joints yards away. read more

Taco Tuesday and Taco Thursday are a great deal! They are taco truck style tacos and the meat is carne asada. All orders come with chips and salsa. The salsa is good, but I think the chips could be tastier. They aren't too bad, but I think could be improved. Indoor and outdoor seating. Food comes out hot, tastes very fresh, and orders and filled quickly. Unfortunately closed on Sunday. read more

I used to love Ede's. They were being greedy during the lockdown and charging an extra $2 for carne asada saying it's hard to find. I have been to multiple Mexican restaurants and no one has charged extra. We canceled the order within 2 minutes of calling and we were very respectful and said sorry and they gave attitude and hung up. Ede's has definitely lost my business. It's a hard time for all of us but making an bullshit excuse to get the extra money out of people giving you business is not the way. read more

Food is pretty decent. We tried soft carne asada tacos on taco Thursday (also taco Tuesday) they offered to day after 4pm and they were good. I hot a strawberry smoothie that was so refreshing when it was warm out. It was perfectly sweetened, worth trying another flavor next visit. This is our second time coming, last time I got a green enchilada with beans and rice which was pretty good, I've had better seasoned rice but it wasn't bad. I gave a 4 star because the young ladies working provided good customer service and it's pretty clean inside. Best of all, their restroom was tidy and family friendly. I love that there was a baby changing station that wasn't dingy looking. read more
