It is fabulous. I also like that they offer Mexican drinks like Coke, Sprite, and orange Fanta. The service is always great here. They are super helpful and patient, whether it is in person or over the phone. The ambiance is so relaxed and clean. I have done both eating it there or taking it to go.

The worker acknowledged me right away and was ready to place my order. The menu was pretty big so it did take me a while to decide what I wanted. I ended up getting the carne asada fries but with tongue instead. The menu stated we can get other meat instead of carne so that's what I did but I didn't know there would be an extra charge of $4 ish. I also ordered a shrimp burrito. I waited probably no more than 12 mins to get my order which wasn't too bad. The thickness of the burrito was average but it was longer than a typical burrito which I was happy about. They put in a decent amount of shrimps. I was able to get a piece of shrimp with almost every other bites. I also like the sauce they used and like how they put bigger chucks of tomato. The fries were also yummy! Similar to the burrito, they put a lot of protein and the fries were crispy. Would definitely come back to try their other dishes

If you love authentic regional Mexican food, El Ruizenor Grill is an absolute gem. This is the kind…read moreof small business you feel good supporting--deeply rooted in tradition, made with care, and run with heart. Deborah, the owner, is incredible and truly passionate about sharing Oaxacan cuisine the right way. You can feel that intention in every dish. The guacamole is fresh, vibrant, and beautifully balanced--simple ingredients, done right. Their Oaxacan horchata deserves special recognition: lighter, more nuanced, and less cloying than the typical version, with a flavor profile that feels thoughtful and refreshing rather than overly sweet. This was also my first time trying chapulines, and it couldn't have been a better introduction. Knowing they're sourced directly from Oaxaca adds so much meaning to the experience. Earthy, savory, and surprisingly approachable--an authentic taste of regional tradition that you don't find easily. El Ruizenor Grill isn't just a restaurant--it's a cultural experience. If you appreciate food with history, integrity, and soul, this spot in Temple City is a must-visit. I'll absolutely be back.
