    Great customer service, very clean and the food was great. Excited to come back for dinner. We arrived at 9:00am for breakfast. Located off of limonite closer to van buren , next to the Carls Jr.

    Molcajete

    I came here last night and was surprised at the great service and food here. I was a little deterred by some of the other reviews but I was glad I gave this place a chance. I was looking for a last minute Mexican food restaurant that had molcajetes on the menu. I was frantically calling different places in Riverside and was disappointed most places close at 9pm or 8:30pm on a Thursday night. But thankfully Paracho Mexican and Seafood saved the day! I called ahead and was told they closed at midnight on a Thursday night and was assured the restaurant was family friendly (all ages welcome). Our table ordered two molcajetes, camarones a la diabla, oysters, carne asada sopes, birria tacos, and shrimp fajitas. All dishes came with a side of rice and beans. We all greatly enjoyed our food. Everything was made to order and came out sizzling hot. But they did not have hand made tortillas. They had packet tortillas. And like other reviewers mentioned, the beans do seem like they are canned beans. If you are okay with those two things, then the rest of your meal will not disappoint. The ambience can be really loud at times. It is a restaurant with tons of televisions on their walls hooked up with a loud surround system. Depending on what song is playing, you can barely hear yourself speak. I would assume this would be great to enjoy a sporting event. The staff was incredibly nice. I brought my grandparents here which are Spanish speaking only and the staff are bilingual. They were easily able to speak to my grandparents in Spanish and myself in English for our service. I really appreciated that. Overall, I'd recommend this place if you were in the mood for a sit down Mexican restaurant that was open late at night and you are okay with the loud ambiance. My grandparents loved this place and I would definitely be bringing them here again in the future.

    I do plan to give this place a second chance in hopes of having a better experience but I'll be honest, for my first time, it wasn't the best. My dad and I went a little after noon on a Sunday to have lunch and the restaurant wasn't busy at all. We were quickly seated but after that it took a long while to even be attended, not even a quick drink order. We saw two groups that came after us be attended much faster which was truly disappointing. It wasn't until we said something that a waitress came and there was no apology for the wait and to be honest, not the best hospitality service either. We proceed to order our food and just make the best of it. I had their mole cheese enchiladas and over all rating 3/10. I wouldn't consider their food authentic Mexican food but it's not horrible either, it does a decent job. I also ordered an horchata which taste like it came out of a machine which was a bummer as well. I did notice the restaurant had many tvs and read good surround sound which makes sense since they host tv sporting events so I think this might be a fun place to come watch a game or fight with friends. Like I said, I plan to give this place a second chance but first experience was a bit disappointing.

    This place is always bomb. The food, the staff, the chips and salsa and the drinks! They have a variety of salsas and some hot, which we love. Carlos is the best. Happy hour Monday-Friday all day. Enchilada plate is our favorite and me and my husband split it: Only advice would be, have a taco Tuesday :)

    MY MONDAY GO TO SPOT!!! $5 margaritas all day Monday and they're BOMBBBB! Carlos is amazing and the food is delicious! (2 thumbs up) and (5 stars)

    Taquitos

    This place was pretty good! It's a small place located in Jurupa Valley but it's a really cool environment. Games we're on the TVs and service was great. Great music in the background too. The beef taquitos were good, not great, but good. My wife had the enchiladas de camaron (shrimp enchiladas) and those were delicious! I would definitely return to eat here

    $3 jump on receipt to sign AFTER the itemized receipt said $96
    Devianna C.

    Came in on Sunday at 1130 for brunch with a friend. We weren't even sure of where to enter through because they don't have a main entrance front desk or sign. We walked in and the girl behind the bar just looked at us. It was not a warm welcoming. The service unfortunately was bad. The girl that was taking our order just took forever to continue coming back to us. After the first time she took her order. We had to wait for her to come back so that we can order our drinks and ask about the drink menu they don't have regular handout menus either we had to keep using our phones to scan the barcode there's no prices on the drinks which I feel needs to be updated. The food was also not the best. We paid $35 for our aguachili with octopus not worth it at all. A normal aguachilie plate cost around 22. I've never seen a plate go as high as 35 and come out looking as plain as this one it was definitely not worth $35. I ordered the enchiladas Verdes. And they were good, but not the best. The enchiladas were also very, very small. I wish I could say I would come back for the drink but I ordered the spicy mango and the mango was good but the drink had so much syrup in it. It was too thick and didn't taste good. I kept trying to stir it to make it better but it wasn't happening. The service was terrible. Every time we looked at her she was talking to the other girls or talking to people at the bar, but she wasn't paying attention to us. We had to wait every time we needed something else it took us 45 minutes to leave after we were ready to go. We had to wait awhile just to ask for boxes . She didn't bring our check we had to ask for it again which also took another long while once we got our check, our bill was $96. Yet when she brought the receipt for us to sign all of a sudden it was $99 a three dollar jump but yet the itemized list was 96. So they changed the receipt that we were signing and updated by three dollars. Double check your receipts people because that's not a normal mistake. I'm giving two stars because the parking lot is spacious the one restroom they have was clean . And the food was decent, but I wouldn't come back for the food or the drinks. And even though it was only a three dollar on our receipt we're very confused on how something like that happens. so if you're coming here, enjoy the atmosphere,they do have several large tvs playing soccer. The bar is a good size with what looks like lots of options.

    Nereyda at the register keeping busy ignoring our table.

    Went on a Friday before dinner time and as we walked in we were not greeted we were stared at by a server at the register near the Bar. Eventually Nereyda (our server according to the receipt) sat us at a table and told us to scan the QR code to look at the menu. The menu needs some work there are no prices on some food items and on alcohol. This means if the management can't decide on liquor prices then I'm not buying it from here. We put in our food order and waited 45 minutes to get the food to the table. The wet burrito is smothered in canned tomato sauce with absolutely no seasoning. The fish tacos were dry and flavorless. Nereyda was absolutely not in a good mood as she kept herself busy sweeping and ignoring the only two tables she was serving. She did not check up on us until it was time to pay. We didn't get the usual "have a nice day" or "thank you" - nothing at all. We won't be coming back to this location. Unfortunate because the music was great but the servers need some training in customer service.

    $14 Burrito de Asada not worth it there barley any meat  I'm just better off going to bakers or del taco!
    David C.

    Wow talk about being rip off lol $14 burrito nah not worth it! Very little meat. Nothing but rice. Will not be coming back.

    This photo is Cielo mar , y Tierra  If your looking for authentic MEXICAN FOOD this is not the spot .

    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

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

Very spacious location, decor has you feeling like you're in Cancun, really good setup. Music is BLASTING, there's a Dj and large screen playing music videos and the music selection when I was there was on point! 5/5 for the vibes! We started off with a mimosa, standard drunk so nothing out of this world about it. Chips and salsa were brought out for the table and both were really good! Chips were warm and made in-house so they were perfect. Salsa was a pico de gallo finely chopped. For my main course I ordered the huevos rancheros and that was a 3/5. Overall flavor was good I will say but the dish was a little cold upon the first bite. Loaded with sour cream and salsa, it was a little too much. The dish came with asada (steak) inside and the meat was really chewy and only a few pieces of it. I was too thrown off by the food being slightly cold but otherwise, it wasn't terrible. Very modern take on Mexican food. Service was quick and our waiter, Jose was super nice! No complaints there whatsoever. This place is definitely more for the vibe itself. Good spot to grab some appetizers or a quick small bite, or just drinks themselves. Overall, 3.8 stars from me!

Their Mojarra for one, is amazing with some corn tortillas, beans and rice, and lettuce. The lime garlicky sauce on that one, is what I've been dreaming of. It was THE star of the show. And we also got their wet supreme burrito mojado, with the mole sauce all over it Also tried their agua fresca, loved the cucumber and lime flavor! Great size for two to share, and we had a blast just eating and enjoying the sights laid out to see. Their pickled onions got a spicy kick to it! I loved the added crunch instead of just having the typical hot salsa. Service was great, with the waiters and waitresses checking in on us every now and then, and I liked that we pay first then eat, so we just leave after we're done! Excellent experience as the weather was perfect too, the outdoor seating has some mosquitoes but be sure to go when it's not molting hot outside! After food we got to go on a photo spree and it was wonderful.

    Terrible customer service and a menu that doesn't explain their own rules…read more We ordered the potato tacos and asked if they could be made hard shell. The woman helping us immediately gave us attitude and said they "can't" do that because the potato tacos are premade. That explanation made even less sense once the food came out. My girlfriend's potato tacos were served flat/open, while my dad's meat tacos came out hot in hard shells. So they clearly have hard shells and are actively serving them--we were simply asking for potato instead of meat in one. And nowhere on the menu does it explain that this isn't possible. In fact, the menu specifically labels other items "2 SOFT TACOS" and "2 HARD SHELL TACOS," while the potato option simply says "2 TACOS." It doesn't say soft, doesn't say they're premade, and doesn't say hard shell isn't an option. If there's some legitimate kitchen reason they can't put potato in a hard shell, that's fine. Just explain it politely and put it on the menu. Instead, the woman acted like we were asking for something completely ridiculous and was unnecessarily rude about a very simple request. Customers shouldn't be expected to know your kitchen's unwritten rules and then get an attitude for asking a question your own menu doesn't answer. Fix the menu or fix the attitude. Preferably both. We definitely won't be coming back
