    a menu for a mexican restaurant
    Eric S.

    I got a burrito from here for lunch and it was pretty good! It's a small family owned business and it was quickly made and served and overall just a nice little Mexican food place

    Chorizo tacos

    Lovvvvveeeeee!!! OMG so good! I've eaten at so many different Mexican spots and this is another one of my favs!! I don't read Spanish but I think it's homemade tortillas!!! They have a credit cards machine so you don't have to bring cash. Bomb! Al pastor tacos are delish!!

    Eating good food with my grandma.

    I meant to post this the day we were there…read more First off, this place was packed--as expected for a Sunday around brunch time. It's obviously a popular spot. The wait was long, but it was expected, and we weren't in any rush. The service was great, and the food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the chorizo con papas, which came with beans and handmade tortillas. Everything was amazing, and I can't wait to go back. Another reason for this post is to apologize and recognize the incredible staff. We ended up staying about an hour after closing because my friend and I hadn't seen each other in nearly two years. We got so caught up talking and reminiscing that we didn't even realize we were the only ones left in the restaurant. Not once did anyone ask us to leave or make us feel like we had overstayed our welcome. We know staying that long after closing is inconsiderate, and it was never our intention. We sincerely apologize for that. Thank you to the entire staff for your patience, kindness, and hospitality. We truly appreciate you giving us the time to catch up, and we'll definitely be back--for the amazing food and the exceptional service.

    It's a place I like to visit with my husband every other Sunday. I always drop by for the cafe de…read moreoya iced and their delicious corn pancakes. My husband loves their carner en su jugo (unfortunately today did not have it but we trying their paloma salsa) It's always busy and bustling but the wait is worth it. I recommend not to come if you are hungry because the wait might be a little long. The staff is always great.

    Lunch on Taco Tuesday in Temple City, Los Angeles, California…read more.. My friend, Rosemarie, highly recommended El Ruizeñor Grill because she had been there in the past for a Yelp event. She described the food, the prizes, and the fun - wow! Let's go! Parking on the street was easy. We arrived before the lunch crowd, so several tables were available. Afterwards, the place was packed in the colorfully decorated and festive atmosphere! Service was attentive, friendly, and helpful! The Taco Tuesday deal was great! We got pollo, papa, al pastor, and carnitas tacos for $1.56 each, and a carne asada taco for $2.56! Everything was tasty and beautiful! I also enjoyed a generous, refreshing horchata! Thanks, Rose for the fun foodie adventure! I appreciated the complementary crunchy chips and non-spicy salsa! Yum!

    There was a Yelp event held at El Ruizenor Grill in Temple City. I didn't get confirmed in for the…read moreevent. All good. I never worry. After reading some great reviews, I came here to support this biz. Luckily, I got free street parking. I'm not sure if they have their own parking though. They do have tables and chairs outdoor and indoor for dining. It's small space was a bit dark due to the dark furniture. They weren't super busy with only a handful of tables preoccupied. Staff was friendly and amicable. I did take-out instead of dine-in. Menu had good selections of different authentic Oaxacan cuisine, including dishes like tlayudas, mole, and chilaquiles, alongside traditional Mexican entrees. Since mole with chicken was a highlight dish at the event, I decided to get it with one Iced Jamaica drink. Wait time was a bit long which I find odd because they weren't super busy. Maybe they make their chicken mole to order. Chicken was super moist! Mole sauce was not overpowering with spices which I enjoyed very much. Rice could have been fluffier. Black beans was a bit plain... wished it had more flavor. Jamaica drink was very light in taste unfortunately... I should have gotten it with no ice. I may return to give them another chance to WOW. Maybe I'll dine-in next time. Best of success El Ruizenor Grill!
