I have now tried 3 Riveras locations and the food has consistently been delicious. The beef portions (fajitas) had been remarcably tender and moist. We keep trying different entrees and have yet to be disappointed. Prices aren't bad either ! read more

My husband and I visited Rivera's in Princeton for the first time, and unfortunately, it wasn't a great first impression. My husband's meal was good, but mine was served so cold that it was inedible. The cheese wasn't even melted, making it seem like it hadn't been cooked long enough. My husband's plate was hot to the touch, mine was cold. I politely brought it to our server's attention, but the service wasn't very attentive, and the only resolution offered was a 10% discount on my entrée. Since I couldn't eat the meal, that didn't feel like an appropriate response. We understand that every restaurant can have an off day, but between the cold food, lackluster service, and the way the issue was handled, it was a disappointing experience. Sadly, our first visit will also be our last. We won't be back. read more

I'm really eerie about going back the food that I ordered was not good very salty but I guess I will it just happened at one time I don't think I'll order it to go anymore I've always loved their chili relleno read more

Everything here was so good. The service, the atmosphere and definitely the food!!! We had steak tacos, chili relleno, tamales and enchiladas. They were all delicious! Will definitely be back! read more

We waited at the front of the restaurant for about 5 to 10 minutes waiting on everyone just come see us and or even acknowledge us. They brought out the queso without any chips or hot sauce. And we waiting on chips for the queso for about another five minutes. Once everything came out it was pretty good, but initially it was not that great as far as service and hospitality. read more

We've been here twice. The chips and salsa are really good. I ordered nachos the second time and I enjoyed them. The service was lacking both times, but the food was the saving grace from keeping me giving them 2 stars. My hub didn't like the chicken enchilada, said the sour cream sauce was not good, not tangy, just bad. read more

This is an amazing and very authentic plate of food, with a staff that is honestly happy to see you and proud when you say you enjoyed their cooking. That said, please go somewhere else - I don't want big crowds to ruin it, and I am pretty sure our family can support them single-handedly! read more

honestly the best food for a very decent price. quantity is a lot and the quality is super good. service CAN be slow if you go during busy hours but the waitress is always super friendly and gives good recommendations. we come here very frequently with our child and baby, it is very family friendly. they offer a kids menu and high chairs. highly recommend you try! read more

I came here with my cousin for the first time and was delighted to find out they had live music playing! Music was a little loud for conversation however it was easy to enjoy and I loved the energy. Our service was great considering the tables quickly filled with families and the two women on staff did great and answered all of my questions about the menu. Reasonably priced menu from what I saw and the servings sizes were good for the two of us. We both chowed down and liked our meals. Tipped well and will be a returning customer read more

I've been here about 3 times and each time was good. Food and Drink are excellent including the guacamole. Took my wife and mom here for Mother's Day Lunch recently and we had a wonderful time. Personally enjoy the shrimp quesadillas with sour cream and guac. Service and atmosphere are good and laid back. Definitely want to check ahead for a table though on weekends and holidays. read more

Amazing authentic food if ur ever in the area or live in Princeton this is the best restaurant for Tex mex if ur looking for real authentic food with good and fast service that makes sure ur eating good ! read more

Excellent first impression here (may update in the future as I just moved to area and will for sure be back). I never would've stopped in this place were it not for the good reviews. From the outside it looks like a place that you probably wouldn't want to eat at. But looks can be deceiving. Loved everything we ordered. Looks like it was all made fresh. Delicious chips and salsa. Sizzling plate of beef fajitas was excellent. Very pleasantly surprised by this little hole in the wall here in Princeton. I'll definitely be back at some point to try more. Hopefully they continue to be good. read more

Amazing food and service! I just recently moved to Princeton and this is by far my favorite restaurant.

The food in the restaurant was good and fresh. The menu was very big and had many options. Our server was a bit slow but she was nice and made sure everyone got what they needed. read more

The food was very good, but the service was a bit forgetful and slow. Overall, it was good and we will return!

One of the best plates of food I've ever had. Ordered the chipotle chicken zucchini dinner. Absolutely delicious. Every thing was fresh and made from scratch. Tons of street parking. Clean interior. Staff were outstanding. Food was even better. Sat at the bar - place isn't huge and was about 3/4 full on a Friday evening. Beers are gigantic and ice cold. Chips and salsa were excellent. Hidden gem. Prices were super reasonable and portions were large. I will definitely be back. read more

Love this place, our favorite spot in Princeton as locals. Frozen Margaritas are fantastic and so are their new bacon wrapped steak medallions. The service is always good and it has a nice vibe. read more

We actually walked from home just to get out a little longer. Got flautas w rice and beans, large guac and a side of beans. Called before we left the house and it was ready when we got there. Restaurant was spotless and quiet. We obviously weren't the only ones doing take-out, there were a few coming and going. Everything was great, rice could use a little spice to it. Other than that, it's all good. Salsa was a good flavor and not too spicy. Everything was still warm when we got back home. Will definitely return! read more

Best restaurant in Princeton by far. I know that's not saying much, but the food at this place is big city A++. Parrillada for 2 is huge and delicious. Substituted steamed veggies for beans. Chips and salsa are addictive. read more
