Lengua burrito with everything in it ($14.99): 3/5. It's not a large burrito, but about three-quarters of it filled me up for breakfast because of the rice and beans. The tortilla was soft and thin, which I appreciated. Lengua was delicate yet underseasoned, almost to the point of getting lost in each bite amongst the rice, beans, and cheese. The optional green and red salsas saved this bland burrito, so I recommend getting both salsas with whatever you get just in case. Service: 5/5. Knowledgeable staff. The girl who helped us at the register was friendly and down-to-earth. Food didn't take too long to come out, but it wasn't suspiciously fast, either. Our burritos arrived neatly wrapped and piping hot. Atmosphere: 4/5. Very casual, no-frills place. Inside tables and bathroom were clean. Extremely loud music was blasting from the fitness studio next door, but it wasn't super annoying since we were just gonna eat and go. Parking is free and aplenty in the plaza.

Salsa and Fries
Monique R.

Food was good. Place was clean. Cashier was nice. Plates came out quick. Coming from Santa Ana home of some of the best tacos and salsa its been very hard to compare. I try to always go back a second time because sometimes,it might just be what I ordered. Friendliness & cleanliness & customer service was a 9! Food and flavors I would give a 7. I guess the hunt for the best tacos in Riverside still continues!..

All I have to say is wow! My burrito was so well put together. The ingredients were so fresh and tasty. I decided to try something different, which was their tongue burrito with cilantro, beans, cheese, rice, and pico de gallo. If you're out and about in Riverside, and in need of solid Mexican food, this is your place!

Shrimp nachos
Anna G.

Stopped by Green Taco and tried a few things, the Breakfast Burrito with asada, a regular Asada burrito, and the Shrimp Nachos. The food was actually really good. The asada had great flavor, the breakfast burrito was super satisfying, and the shrimp nachos were loaded and definitely worth ordering again. Service was friendly and quick. Everyone behind the counter was welcoming and the food came out fresh. The only downside is the location. It's a little sketchy outside, and I found myself keeping an eye on my car because of a couple of tweakers hanging around. Nothing happened, but it definitely made me more aware of my surroundings. Overall, great food and great service, just be mindful of the area when you go.

Carne Asada (Steak) Taco
Lance G.

Great food and an even better experience! The restaurant was clean and spotless, the service was fast, and everyone was incredibly friendly. I had the carne asada taco and the carne asada nachos--both were delicious. The salsa was excellent too. I'll definitely be back!

Steak feels like a good baseline on how to judge a Mexican restaurant. I don't think I will be back. Friendly staff and my food came out quick. The steak needed seasoning and it and dry. It was decent when you put the entire plate into a tortilla, but the steak on its own needs help. Pretty good horchata. Go and add a splash of French vanilla creamer. The sides of rice and beans are okay. Nothing to write about. Guacamole and pico are good enough where they add a bit of freshness; this also includes the lettuce. Music in the background, place is pretty clean. The only reason why I came here I was the guy from Tik Tok who reviewed this spot. Good luck and positive vibes to this restaurant!

Breakfast Burrito
Skyy _.

Easily the best Breakfast Burrito I've ever had. - I got a three meat breakfast burrito w/ asada, chorizo, and bacon! Another stand out was the service and how amazing the staff was, given my first time here. Will definitely be back!!

Bacon breakfasts burrito
Enrique V.

Great food, great service at a reasonable price. Everything looked so clean as well. The bacon breakfast burrito was really flavorful and not greasy at all.

Carne Asada (Steak) Burrito. (Too small)
Aaron A.

I went here because they say it was a hidden gem on TikTok said they had giant burritos and this place was really good. Unfortunately, the burritos were average size. Maybe even on the smaller side. Paid $31 for one burrito and a couple of street tacos. Definitely not worth it. Disappointed, the taste was really good but for the price and the portion size could've got a much bigger burrito from chipotle or something, and probably save money. This is also one of those burritos where it's 85% beans and rice 15% meat. The staff was really good no complaints. They get offered me a lot of hot sauce, but besides that I won't be coming back.

Mini-taco
Jason F.

This review is long overdue for one of my favorite small Mexican places in Riverside. The mini tacos are always good especially the pastor! Big menu with breakfast too, long hours and the wait time is minimal, family owned place I get my lunch at all the time! Shout out to Gabby and Reuben!

Menudo!

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

4th time in about 5yrs. Food was "ok". Sorry to say, you…read morewon't find real "street tacos" thedse are soft tortilla or hard shell. 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

The food was absolutely delicious, and there was so much to see throughout the property. The atmosphere made me feel like I had been transported to a colorful, nostalgic spot in Mexico. Music was playing outside, and the entire place had such a fun vibe. We even walked into the little chapel, which looked like a beautiful church you might come across somewhere in Mexico. The owner is incredibly creative and made the artwork using recycled items. Everywhere you look, there is another interesting piece to discover. It was such a unique experience, and I will definitely be coming back!

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.
