This food was gross. Everything was from can,nothing fresh, except maybe the lettuce,but it was wilted. Frozen chille relleno, chips and Taco shells weren't fresh. They were prepackaged and made in lard. Even restaurants that we thought were bad were better than Ray's Tepeyak. read more

This place STANDS alone in cuisine perfection, breakfast, lunch or dinner! ‍Truly. Never disappoints. Menu is so extensive I'll posting forever read more

Chips and salsa are great. Warm and fresh. Wet pollo burrito needs a little something. Maybe use less shredding of the chicken meat. Was more a paste then shredded chicken like it was blended. Other food has been great . Possibly get the sauce on burrito warmer sometimes arrives cold. Looks like they will get liquor license soon. read more

I loved the food and the huge Micheladas! Great place to enjoy happy hour or for dinner with the family. I'll be back!

I have been coming to the restaurant for over 15 years my Family & even with out of town family since the last owner!!! Unfortunately today was the worst day ever, I almost walked out because of a very rude hostess (DIANE)!!! Since the time that she took my name for the list & after that I was paying!!! She has no respect to the customer that are keeping the restaurant in business... & even the staff!!! She not a Team player!!! The worst was that she & another person were talking About the workers being so slow & that they were not going to help them!!!! She said that they needed to work faster even after know that they short staffed!!!! This was all said in front were guest were waiting to be seated for all of us to hear... She needed to learn what it is to work in customer service or find somewhere else that she does not deal with the public!!!! read more

Our first time dining here today and we both have no complaints about this place, only complaint I'd have to mention is their corn tortillas, they're too dry and stale. But other than that DELICIOUS!!!!!!! The beer are very cheap and the micheladas are so good and cheap. Loooove that! The food reminds me of my moms little town in Mexico home cooked meals delicious. Never had a Mexican restaurant taste this good MUST TRY THIS PLACE!!!!!! we are definitely coming back soon. read more

I never been to Rays ... my girlfriend brought me and we had the Chile Verde Burrito fire!! And the Apple chimichanga double fire!!!

**ZACATECAS BURRITO IS DELICIOUS** The place gets VERY busy. Expect to wait a while. Parking isn't great. Excellent customer service. Everyone kept refilling our drinks and chips! I ordered enchiladas suizas no cheese. They were very salty in a good way ( if that makes sense). I suggest some sour cream on top. My husband and our friend got the zacatecas burrito. One with the works the other with no cheese and the rice on the side. I'm not a burrito person at all. My husband insisted I try the meat and wow!!! So much flavor. I wish I had the zscatecas made into enchiladas. If that's at all possible DO IT!!! The restaurant is stuffy, it could use some upgrades. Not terrible not great. I'm happy I went. Buen provecho!!! read more

Came here for a work lunch. The servers kept the chips and salsa coming and they were pretty good; I found myself constantly reaching for them. Ordered a carne asada burrito with everything and it was standard. I can't say it was the best I had. While the flavor was pretty good, the sauce was pretty watery and the beef seemed to be overcooked. Parking situation is a bit weird, so drive carefully and make sure you're going in the right direction when looking for a spot to park. read more

Favorite Mexican restaurant third generation coming here best salsa, hands-down. Service is good.

Hey Ray's. Did you forget your giant sign says open at 8am ? You are definitely not open at 8am. Still gonna give you 5 stars though, cuz the huevos rancheros are the best around! read more

Ray's Tepeyac - Sign says open at 8am. We waited till 830 and no one came to open up the restaurant. On a tues. - Mexican Near Me - Covina, California

Went back to Ray's Tepeyac despite all the bad reviews. We had been going for a really long time. We hadn't tried the new owners. Well, we were greeted so friendly and got a table quickly. Then, we ordered our drinks and given the menus. We immediately recognized our waiter! Great guy. He brought our drinks and took our order. He kept the drinks coming! It was happy hour from 4pm-6pm, and the Margaritas were awesome. He brought our food. The plates made our mouths water. They looked so good. I'm so glad we didn't listen to the Bad reviews! I honestly don't understand them! Please if you're in the area, looking for Mexican food, you must go to Ray's Tepeyac. read more

Service : 10/10 You can definitely tell this is a family ran business. Everyone is so kind and attentive. I would return solely for their service Food: 10/10 So yummy! Their chips and salsa are delicious! I love their hard shelled tacos and enchiladas. Their rice is flavorful and fluffy. The portions are big and it's reasonably priced. 100% would recommend and come back read more

Excellent service and food as well. Definitely a must. One of the best Mexican restaurants I have tried.

If there was a zero star option it would be my choice. Came here today. Ordered a caldo de res (beef soup) and taquitos literally no flavor at all in the food very bland. The soup had no flavor and the veggies still had the skin and not peeled and had spots of mold or rott. Told the waitress and she gave horrible attitude she said "we can't please everyone" so that's why you can use salt and lemon to give the flavor of you liking". Was told upon ordering this soup was fresh clearly it wasn't. I ain't ever coming here again save your self a waste of time and money as this ain't real mexican food this place is a joke and they need to learn how to treat people. read more

I give this place 2 stars. Horrible customer service from the older lady at the cashier desk her name is DIANE, this business is no longer family owned and seems to be selective with their clientele. After dining here for 30 plus years we won't be back. The food is decent, but customers service HORRIBLE. Nothing comparing when RAY was the owenr.so sad. read more

The food was disgusting. First time for dinner, we had taquitos and hardshell tacos with beans and rice. It was all horrible! No flavor and the taquitos tasted frozen! I'll never come back read more

Ok place. I ate at better Mexican restaurants. Good service. The atmosphere is ok they to redecorate and make more homely

My husband and I came in on a Sunday afternoon for a casual late lunch. We were seated rather quickly and were brought complimentary chips and salsa. Pretty standard for a Mexican food place. The chips were okay as was the salsa. Nothing special. I ordered the taco, enchilada and Chile relleno plate and my husband the Azteca burrito. The portions were huge and all in all we thought the food was delicious. The price was reasonable too. Only $22 for two people. Score! Or so we thought..not more than fifteen minutes after finishing our meals we both began to have severe stomach pains. I don't want to go into details but let's say it wasn't pretty. Not at all. As disheartening as it is we will never return. On a good note I'm sure we both lost at least two pounds that night!! read more

My second review of Ray's. I had the Albondigas soup. It was bland. Lacked flavor. Very disappointing. Add some spice and chop the veggies into smaller pieces. The good news. The wet shredded beef burrito lunch special reminded me of my Dad. He loved wet burritos. This one was huge and really good. $9.95. My first review featured the carnitas which are epic. Enjoy. read more

horrible service and not very good food. we were never given menus and finally after ten minutes we had to go up to the counter and ask for some. our server was very unattentive, impatient, and unfriendly. i could tell he was in a rush, but he could have at least made an effort to make us feel welcomed. guacamole was gross. it was soupy and covered with cheese on top for some reason. chips tasted store bought. enchiladas were pretty good, but a little undercooked. only way i'd come back is if staff were friendlier and guacamole didn't taste/look storebought. i will say the guy in the front with a pink beanie was the only friendly staff member we interacted with. the others need to take some lessons. read more

Excellent food no matter what time of the day you go it's always same very consistent

This is great spot for a quick sit down authentic Mexican meal. I really love there lunch combos! Very filling for cheap! My go-to is the chili relleno and beef taco. The sauce over the relleno always has such a good flavor! The taco is hard shell and never soggy. Some places that I go to, by the time I get to the taco the bottom is soaked, but definitely not at Rays! The do not skimp on the cheese and salsa has a nice kick. Close to work so we come here often! Definitely recommend!!! read more

Horrible customer service from an older lady long straight black hair with bangs (I didn't see what her name was unfortunately) The food was OK, not authentic Mexican food, more like American "Mexican food" read more

COVID Review: I returned to my hometown area after 20+ years and was so happy to see Rays is still going strong. The familiar aroma of outstanding authentic Tepeyac food being cooked up made me smile as I walked in to pick up our to go order. Had my wife try it with me for her first time and watched her eyes light up when she tasted the mole. I went with what I always got as a kid/teen. Two shredded beef tacos combo plate. It tasted as amazing as it always did. Other than my personal nostalgia and fond memories growing up coming here, the food is still excellent and warrants a try of all of your favorite dishes. They do offer outdoor dining during current restrictions. The food will be just as delicious to go as when you eat there because it makes you feel like you're at home anyway. Every time I'm in the LA area, this is always a must have. read more

Ray's food is top notch! Our family loves Mexican food and we have yet to find a place we enjoy as much as Ray's. Everything is always piping hot and flavorful when it arrives at your table. The staff are warm and efficient. Prices are comparable to other restaurants in the area. Give a try, it won't disappoint! read more

The place is nice but the food wasn't that great this time. The beans taste like can store bought beans and the potato tacos didn't have any salt. Very dual. The service was great though and the workers were really nice. read more

VERY GOOD FOOD Shrimp In butter and garlic BOMB Great chips and salsa A+A+A++++++ if you're in Covina California stop in and have some of the finest Mexican food in town read more

I understand we are just starting to reopen but this was my first indoor experience since we shut down. My recommendation for them is to make sure if customer and their party walk in without masks that they ask them to please put on. As per CDC you can take off when eating. This is my opinion on this matter but a important one to this nurse. We are still trying and want to stay open so please follow guidelines. They are posted in their restaurant and you can help by following them. All the servers had their mask on and did distance customers. read more

Amazing food!! Honestly the pictures speak for themselves, super cheesy, full of flavor and delicious. I always come here when I need a good comfort Mexican food that won't disappoint. read more

My favorite Mexican food place. Always worth the drive. Family atmosphere and great service... our favorite waitress is Anna

Ray's Tepeyac used to be one of my favorite restaurants but last year it didn't even make it to my list. Not sure what happened but the food became too greasy. My husband and I both had stomach pains one day after eating Ray's. I ate the cheese enchiladas and I can't even describe how greasy they were. You could literally see them drenched in grease. My parents used to come from East LA because they liked their food too but again, last year in November they ate there and my mom said they were disgusted by the amount of grease the food had. My mom said the beans tasted old and out of a can and the rice was hard. Not sure what happened because Ray's was our to go place for celebrations but like I said, as of last year it just no longer made it to my list. read more
