This is the only Mexican restaurant we go to, nobody else we tried is better. Thursday is margaritas on special day, they are a few bucks less. They have Luz on the tableside guacamole cart, making it just how you want it. Their frijoles are superb, so much that we skip the rice and say double frijoles, no arroz! They have many many dishes, but we usually stick with tacos or tostadas as that is our favorite. Their chicken is just the best around flavored very well. Many of the waiters have been here for years. The only ding I would give them is that the lights could be a little less bright for a better atmosphere, but it is decorated very nicely. read more

Checked out this okay Mexican restaurant in Aurora. It may look like another one of those shady strip mall ones but it's actually better. Rito's is bigger than it looks. For sure there's enough room for a fiesta. The prices are okay especially when there's a special. Basically the menu has about what you expect. It's got a lot of alcoholic beverages including of course margaritas. The food is mostly things like burritos and tacos. Also there's some other good finds. It's about $9 for a Paloma. This is a classic with lime, pop, and tequila. It's about $9 for the Mexican Nachos. Kind of a redundant name but whatever. Actually just nachos topped with guacamole, refried beans, and also sour cream which I left off. This was enough for us to munch on. As for entrees they have quite a bit. There's also seafood if not wanting the usual beef or chicken in burritos, tacos, and others. Got to say it was better than expected. It's closed Mondays. This is located in the strip mall on Montgomery at Frontenac along with a Chinese restaurant. read more

Common sense could be improved. I ordered a combination plate (which was fine) alongside a flauta kids meal for pick up. Received this flauta that had more condiments than flauta. And instead of them putting condiments separately they throw it on top. So here I am on lunch struggling to eat my flauta and making a mess because I can't pick it up by hand, tried using utensils and it falls apart. Such a waste of money and time. Called to see what could be done and was told I didn't order it plain and that was it. No other options...definitely my last time ordering pick up or delivery. Apparently I have to be in store to make sure the food I pay for is what I receive. read more

Decent food, interior quite run down. Last time I was there was a while ago so hopefully it's in better shape

Rito's, I've heard, is amazing. Their guacamole and sangria, yes! Everything else seemed like IF I grew up with this place, I'd have a different opinion than if my first time walking in was Friday. There's slots in the back that are annoying distracting. There's giant signs everywhere featuring menu items and also a multi page menu. I was thrown off by allllll of the above, but the fun was awesome and or server Arturo was wonderful! Beware of the red salsa- it's spiiiiiicy! Arturo, more water please! Also for a party of 10, drinks and apps was just over $100. Love that! read more

We've been here a couple of times sometimes with friends and often times just a family dinner. The first thing we ordered are their margaritas. It was made fresh that I ordered another one! I love steak tacos so that's what I always ordered, my daughter and husband both had burrito. The restaurant was busy as it was Friday night but our server was always checking in to see how we are doing. Some of the tables are a bit wobbly already but it didn't bother us we just requested to be transferred to the other side of the restaurant. I would come here not just for the margaritas but their food too. read more

Excellent food and drink family favorite . Great dish served in volcanic rock (can't remember the name ) delicious

We had steak tacos, chimichanga, regular steak burrito and it was all really good Thank you

Friendly staff and good food. Fun atmosphere. We ordered carry out and it was ready promptly.

Food always good, the service is great and just a friendly neighborhood feeling, Rito is always there with a welcoming smile and hello

The food was amazing and the drinks are just as good! Great atmosphere and the service is great. They make you feel like family here. Good daily specials! Definitely recommend! read more

For starters I smashed 5 tiny bugs on the table. I let the waiter know about it and he just shrugged and smiled. Should have left right then and there. My friend ordered a burger and fries and the fries looked overcooked and were soggy. She asked for a new order but they declined. 2 out of the 3 of us dining had stomach issues later. We have been there before and everything was fine. This time, not so. Also, it was a Saturday and there were only a few tables being occupied. Now we know why. Don't waste your time. read more

The food was very good and the servings were plentiful. Very tasty and authentic. The server was outstanding

Been here 3 times. Food was never great, but edible. The second time we came we got the best guacamole I've ever had in my life from the girl with the guac cart. I was craving it again so we decided to come back on New Year's Eve. We order guacamole. It was totally different guacamole. Pre-made, no jalapeños and had the texture of avocado mousse. Ok not off to a great start but edible. I ordered an original flavor margarita. It was the most vile margarita/drink/alcohol beverage, I've ever tasted in my life. The menus say these are the best margaritas in town and I'm terrified to know what they are comparing them to; because it was horrifying. The last time we were here another customer at the bar was saying she mixes another liquor into it because she doesn't like the flavor of them either; but I always like to try things for myself before judgement. Such a bad idea. The margarita mix is nothing like I've ever tasted before. I ordered a taco salad with shrimp. The server told me the shrimp would be an up charge. Totally normal so I said okay. The taco salad comes out, not only is it tiny but it is disgusting. Literally just full of shredded lettuce and dripping wet refried beans. There were maybe 5 tiny shrimp in it. The taco shell was stale and flavor was off. I have eaten a lot of taco salads in my life, and have never had a bad one, let alone one that was this disgusting. Churro dessert was good, but then we get the check and see that our server has charged us $20 for shrimp fajitas. The online menu prices do not match the in restaurant prices. So what I thought would be an 10ish dollar taco salad, jumps to $13 dollars, then jumps to $20 when we get our check. We asked him about it and he said "sorry that's what they told me to do". I was not in the mood to argue, just decided then and there we will not return. Fast forward to the middle of the night I wake up with horrible stomach cramps. Proceed to vomit across my entire bathroom. I have never experienced food poisoning to this degree before. Happy new year to me, thank you Rito's read more

Fun place with amazing food and margaritas. We love, love, love their food. I had Cancun combo and my husband had chicken fajita. We also had their delicious guacamole. Great time and food!!! read more

This was just not good food. I had the Cancun Combo which came with a crispy beef taco, chicken enchilada and a pork tostada. I didn't like any of the meat. The beans were just ok. A lot of people ordered the Margarita's so maybe they were good? I don't think I will go back. read more

great food! great drinks ! and drink specials every day .. the staff is nice. very personable. definitely recommended!

I have been here at last 30 times. If u want to get drunk - fast - go here . Hey the original margarita , if u r coming for good Mexican food - hard pass The salsa is not good. Food is ok. Margaritas are spot on. Don't eat the chips. They are reused and put back in a garbage can by the bar in a bag. Again..... margaritas are spot on. Don't eat there if u want good Mexicans food . read more

I feel like this restaurant is sketchy because they sold me 3 tacos from take out and I later checked my transactions they added on $2.40 from what the receipt said in the restaurant. This was for a take out order so I did not authorize any type of tip. I was charged $12.01 in the restaurant and they charged my card $14.41 read more

Good Mexican fare with a great selection of food on the menu. Well-priced, with good portions and quality. About the only weak spot would be the margaritas, with limited options and only a way too sweet regular margarita and no cadillac or golden margarita available. TIP: Great guacamole! read more

This only gets 1 star for the fishbowl margarita. Otherwise, this was the most disgusting food I've ever eaten in my life. Unseasoned beef with unwelcomed carrots, potatoes, onions, and peppers cooked in my beef. Did not know the queso would be tomato flavored mozzarella string cheese. Do not recommend read more

Great food, clean, attentive, fun, drink specials, diverse crowd and Covid-19 safe! Great music too! read more

Don't bother to come here. It is quite bad. The margarita was good but the food is awful and they took a long time considering only three tables, one of which was served when we arrived. I ordered a pork burrito with rice and beans. The beans tasted bland like out of a can. The rice was bland too. But the burrito was gross. Eighty percent was lettuce, cheese, and sour cream. There was a thin layer of pork which included a sauce and onions. The meat tasted sweet with cinnamon or similar. Yuck! It felt like a sour cream bag as soon as I tried to hold it. My wife's fajitas were slightly better but the steak tasted cheap, rubbery, and sweet too. Yuck They ended up charging me an extra $1.30 or so saying pork and steak are extra, meaning anything but chicken is extra. What misers, considering the portion. Salsa also tasted like it came from a food company. First time, last time! read more

Wonderful family owned restaurant with great service and even better food. Ambiance can get a little loud because it's usually busy!

It was just ok. I LOVE molcajete, and my friends said good things about this place, but all the meat in it was dry and the sauce was essentially non-existent. The peach margarita was ok though. I probably won't go again. read more

OMG! This place is outstanding! If you ever think that a Mexican restaurant in the burbs would water down their menu just to appeal to the local residents you could not be more wrong. This place is *authentic*, fairly priced, and incredibly delicious. If you are craving Mexican food and are around Aurora, go here. You'll thank me later. read more

This is at least the third time I ordered Carne asada medium RARE & the steak was served MEDIUM! Sent it back & received another one, which was also MEDIUM! What kind of chef doesn't know how to cook a steak medium rare?! I told the waiter it was okay bc I didn't want him to have to return it again. If we ever return, I guess I have to order it RARE! Happens almost every time we go to Rito's! read more

Good Mexican food, I enjoy the music in background. Great pricing too! will come again!

I've been coming back here for almost 10 years - wonderful family dining experience. These margaritas that will knock your socks off! The cuisine authentic and perfected! The experience is priced below value - meaning I'd pay considerably more for this level of exceptional service anywhere else, thank you for being a family favorite! read more

Highly recommend this restaurant. My family enjoyed the mega steak burrito, chicken tacos, chicken enchiladas, and chicken flautas with a side of rice and refried beans. read more

excellent food, service and margaritas! Best Mexican around and have tried many! The atmosphere is relaxed and non pretentious allowing for the kind of stress release and decompression that is hard to find these days. A true gem of a place! read more

I'd give this place a 2.5-3 stars. You do get a decent amount of food for the price, but the quality of the food is mediocre. I'm not sure if it's because we did take out or not. Maybe the food is better if you dine in. Granted, we live about 5 minutes from the place, so it's not like we had such a far drive that the food should have been cold. We also ordered the flan with rum. Delicious taste, but such absolute terrible to-go packaging. It was placed in a styrofoam box and leaked everywhere in the bag. Again. The amount of food is decent. But the quality of takeout is about a 2.5-3 at best. I'm not sure if the customer service. We ordered online and my husband was the one who picked it up. read more

When we first started visiting Rito's, it was amazing. The staff, food, atmosphere, they were great. We used to dine in a lot. It had been a long time since we've been, since before 2020. I decided to place a pickup order tonight. I ordered a Mega Burrito and a chicken enchilada. Firstly, I asked the person on the phone to please not put the beans inside the Mega Burrito. She said something like, "So you want a double portion of beans on the side?". I said yes, and she said then they couldn't give me rice. I was confused, so I asked what she meant. She never gave any good answer. So if I wanted the beans I paid for from within the burrito simply scooped onto the tray, vs inside, they couldn't give me the rice I paid for. So I ended up just saying no beans. So basically they stole that portion's cost from me for no valid reason. It definitely matters as this wasn't an a la carte order, so they billed me a couple bucks for the sides. The point of ordering the Mega version of the burrito is that it comes with guacamole and sour cream inside, which both were missing. So out of 7 ingredients (steak, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, guacamole, sour cream, and beans), I'm now short changed 3 of them. This effectively makes the burrito a Baby Burrito, which costs a little over two dollars less. This costed $12.35 + tax, which is way overpriced. Next, the enchilada. Inside the takeout container was a sorry, sad, luke warm chicken enchilada, a little pile of shredded lettuce, and a couple of diced tomato pieces. No sauce and soggy. That was somewhere in the neighborhood of $4 - $5. Definitely overpriced. All in all, for the quality of the items received, it should have costed less than half of the total ($17.21). I'm sorry to say that something has changed over at Rito's, and we will not ever be going back again. read more

They are very good for the drinks come for the margaritas on Thursday they are five dollars the tacos are very good as well steak for heaters and steak tacos come here whenever you feel They will treat you a good hospitality read more

Rito's Mexican Restaurant - The strongest ones trust me the waiter told me - Mexican Near Me - Aurora, Illinois

Nice food. No water bottles from outside but other than that the food was 5 star quality. I can't wait to go back tomorrow.

This was hands down the best food and service. The mole was unreal. My son said it was the best Mexican food he's had. We had tableside guacamole which was so smooth and silky. So good. Our server was so awesome and the food came fast. We have found our new favorite spot! ***Edit*** I love this place for eat in. But I won't order delivery (grub hub) again. I ordered the same guacamole that I did when I sat in and it was half the size and no where near as good. This time I ordered the chicken tacos and the not only fell apart but they were bland and dry. I asked for lime slices and those were no where in my bags. I will eat AT the restaurant again and again but I will never order out again. 8/1/19 read more

Amazing all the way!! Loved since the day they opened. Had had our wedding there. Professional and on par.

Great Margaritas & Carne Asada! Rito's Combo is a excellent choice too! Chips & salsa are just ok, wish they would have a better salsa, Guacamole is very good! read more
