Food was ok. Nothing special. Bunch of pictures of racist John Wayne. Could do with out. Staff was friendly.

We came here to celebrate running a 5k race this morning, and what better way to celebrate than with great food and mimosas! We arrived before the Sunday morning rush. Our table was ready when we arrived and were greeted and seated! The vibe here is festive and fun. Perfect for what we were looking for at the time! This was our first visit but won't be our last!! read more

My first time here with my dad, boyfriend, & two little brothers celebrating Father's Day and it's a cute little spot. They had Father's Day balloons at every table which was really cute & festive. We were seated fast & after we took our order the food came out in less than 15 minutes. I ordered the waffle, two sausages, & house potatoes w/ og. Waffle & sausages were bomb but I was not expecting the potatoes to taste the way they did. It wasn't bad!! They were seasoned good but I'm not used to that type of seasoned potato (yes I'm picky). Overall experience was 7/10. read more

Everyone was really friendly! The food is great! My hats off to the chef, my Dad is 93 years old and he likes his eggs up no crispy edges, He was impressed with his eggs! We will continue to frequent the rodeo! read more

Excellent breakfast spot. Efficient and fresh food. The fried pancakes are delicious!

Nothing but positive raves for this spot. Hands down has the best menudo in Riverside with the best service every time without fail! : )

I moved to this area almost a year ago and have been meaning to try this spot for sometime and it did not disappoint! My husband and I love to have breakfast dates so a few weeks ago we came to Rodeo Cafe! The service was great, the environment was warm and welcoming and the coffee was very delicious! I ordered the French toast it was great and my husband enjoyed the eggs Benedict! We will definitely be back and have been telling all our friends and family they need to try this place too! read more

Menudo here is probably the best menudo I've had in the area. I was very surprised. Bowl was a good size too. My only complaint was that the service was very slow. Our waitress was super nice but it just felt like everything took forever. Anyway... come here. The food is super good. read more

The place was super busy on a Saturday morning, service was friendly and they seated us sooner than expected. The cowboy atmosphere was fun and influenced the food. Speaking of huge portions holy smokes! Go there hungry! My Mister had the country fried steak and said it was delicious. read more

Rodeo Cafe - Veggie omlettee yum! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Riverside, California

Came back for a second try and had a better experience then before. Ordered Chile verde omelette and chili cheese omelet; both with thick cut style potatoes. Hands down some of the best breakfast potatoes you could have! Chile verde omelet was delicious and flavorful, the green sauce could use a little spice but overall had a great flavor. Chili cheese omelette presentation could use some work. The chili flavor was delicious but if you're looking to taste any egg, it probably won't happen. Ordered tortillas as my side which paired perfectly. Service this time around was spot on as well. If this cafe remains consistent in this way, I'll be back for more. read more

Rodeo Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Riverside, California

Welcome to the newest restaurant to occupy the far corner of the shopping center. I wish it luck in outlasting it's predecessors. My family and I hit up this new spot Sunday morning after noticing it was no longer Dorys. I ordered the chilaquiles, my husband the chicken fried steak, and between our 3 oldest kids the 3 buttermilk pancakes, the kids half waffle meal, and the kids Mickey mouse pancake meal. My husband gobbled up his chicken fried steak, which he is usually very snobbish about, and stated it was delicious - but the biscuits and gravy unfortunately did not past muster and were declared dry and day old tasting. My chilaquiles was meh. The potatoes were not crispy, the beans were bland, and the verde sauce hardly carried any flavor. I may have been setting the bar too high but I was comparing it to the Rodeo Cafes dish in Norco and there was no comparison. ** side note I do not know if they are owned by the same people/just happen to have the same name** The kids meals were all good portions for my 5yo and 4yo but at $8.95 each I almost wish I had bought them the adult meals at only a buck or two more. In fact that's why I ordered the 3 pancakes for my 6yo because it was only a dollar more. Ordered hot chocolate at $3.95 each but I figured at that price it had to be the good stuff right? Nope, it was the packaged Swiss Miss tasting kind that probably cost 50 cents to make. Served so hot to my little kids that I had to take the ice out of my water to cool it down - most businesses when giving hot drinks to kids have the sense to make it "kid temperature" for safety reasons but all good I guess since I caught it before my kids scalded their tongues. Overall food and drinks gets a mid rating from me. The service was also hit and miss. We got seated within 5 minutes of walking in the door (good) but just to get our drink order taken was about 10 minutes into sitting (not good when you have lil kids). Our waiter was very nice but took off so fast after getting our drink order that we were not able to give our food order. Then when our drinks were delivered it was not by our waiter so again we had to wait for him to come back which took some time. Definitely need waiter assigned sections so they know if a table has been helped or not as it is a specific waiter responsibility and not a "group" of waiters responsibility. read more

Liz was very tentative and quick. We appreciate her so much. The chilaquiles were excellent.

Great local spot for some delicious food and the service was fantastic. Will definitely be back.

The breakfast dishes are good. Lots of salt in the breakfast potatoes. Lunch menu is awful. My BLT was ick and mom's wouldn't eat her sandwich after one bite, it was so bad. Avoid the older waitress with dark hair, that is pulled back. She takes cigarette breaks while serving the food, so when your food arrives it reeks like cigarette smoke and the food absorbs the smell. Won't be going back. Also, parking is horrible. This location was better as an Original Joe's location. read more

Went here with family and everyone enjoyed the service the only problem was the air conditioner was blowing right on top of us and our food got cold to fast. read more

I usually love Rodeo Café -- it's one of my favorite brunch spots! But my visit this past Sunday wasn't great. I found a hair in my orange juice, which was pretty gross, and then my sandwich wasn't made right either. When I told the waiter about the sandwich, he got rude and said I didn't specify my order -- but I definitely did. Luckily, one of the guys who was cleaning tables stepped in and helped fix everything. He was super kind and professional -- honestly, he made the situation better. I hope the café takes this as feedback, because I really do love coming here. read more

We were in the area and we have tried other Rodeo's and had to try this one. It's nice and big inside and they serve beer and wine. The food is great just like the other places. The fried pancake is a must try. Service was good and the server was attentive. Always a fan of Rodeo's read more

This place wasn't bad but it wasn't great either. Granted I did get lunch when it seems like breakfast may be their sweet spot, but I wasn't blown away by anything. I ordered one of their burgers and it was good, but nothing I couldn't make at home. The fries were crispy and hot. Ranch was extra, which I don't mind, but I wish that would have been discussed before both my friend and I ordered our own multiple sides (we could have shared). The place was packed, but even so service was fast . read more

Good food and portion size but not the quickest service. Not a big deal if you are not on a time restriction.

Good food, good coffee, solid breakfast place. The weight stuff is great, and a lot of selections available on the menu.

First time and not our last time. Food and service were great. I got the Chilaquiles and added a steak medium rare it was delicious but the chilaquiles could have been more wet with the green sauce. The wife order the country fried steak and she loved it. read more

Good food. Good service. Nice variety of breakfast options. Plenty of room and doesn't feel too crowded.

Amazing service and breakfast. We got food to go and everything was amazing and they provided a lot of extra stuff for us

Good food. Good service. I've had the pancake breakfast with eggs and bacon, the green chilaquiles are delicious. I'm very picky with chilaquiles and these are good. read more

Get a cook that knows a Tuna Melt should have cheese on it, the waitress shouldn't take the half used ketchup bottles from one table and use them to fill a bottle on another table and clean the bathrooms so you don't have to smell them when your trying to eat your meal. Won't be back. read more

Restaurant closes at 3pm, and we got there at 1:30. We thought it was closed because most of the chairs were put up on the tables, and there was a strong smell of disinfectant since one of the staff was mopping the floors. Depressing and unwelcoming ambiance! Ordered eggs with Rodeo potatoes and biscuits and gravy. The eggs and biscuits and gravy were cold! (The potatoes were good and hot, though.) I don't get it--I'm assuming they want customers. read more

I'm so full I can't even articulate the words to express how great this cafe is. I also cannot ever finish my plate as they serve big portions. I've tried several of their dishes and they're all good! It's never a fail here. The service is superb- regardless of how busy they get the staff remain attentive and courteous. The ambiance is ideal for family/friends to gather, whether if it's to drink an alcoholic beverage while watching sports, or to simply just come and have a meal w loved ones. I'm very satisfied and impressed w everything here. I have zero complaints/suggestions. read more

Horrible service the restaurant was completely empty and it took over an hour for our food to be delivered. Not to mention the extremely dirty environment i mean i LITERALLY saw spider webs on the corner and to top it all off the workers were simply just rude i mean i will FOR SURE never be returning to this restaurant again nothing about it was good and the food was honestly not too great. I wasted about 20 dollars for my meal and I honestly think i would be more satisfied with a 5 dollar mealfrom Mcdonalds. read more

I was expecting very high expectations from all the very high reviews . When ordering, I was greeted with very horrible service. The employees were very rude and took forever to hand me my food. It ruined my mood. I was not very satisfied with the overall experience ! And it had a very odd smell in the inside, ruining the entire setting. Definitely will not be coming back !!!!!! read more

Menudo can be a tricky item to order from any restaurant and for being my 1st time visiting Rodeo Cafe I have to say that I do not have any regrets. Delicious, large portion accompanied by great service. Will definitely be visiting again. read more

Overall the cafe is clean and a very nice establishment. However at the front there's a sign that says " please wait to be seated". As a first time customer I assumed a server was going to seat us and great us kindly , instead we were ignored for a few minutes and annoyingly told that we could just sit wherever we'd like. First red flag. Once we were seated a different server quickly rushed over and asked us if we would like to put our order in. I kindly responded that we would need a few minutes to look over the menu. I went to the restroom for a few minutes to wash my hands and sat down. As soon as I sat down the server came quickly and asked for our order once again. In which I politely asked for a few more minutes to look over. We ordered and received our food at around 1:20. The food was flavorful which I enjoyed however the service was not worth it. My 10 year old even felt like she was rushed, we were celebrating her and she let me know she did not feel comfortable due to the servers circling around so often. I wish I was told before hand that they were about to close or let know that they did not want to service us I would've preferred to visit another restaurant. read more

Stopped in while working a Project in the area. Saw their Yelp reviews and it looked good. They didn't disappoint! The Rib Eye Chiliquilas was a real treat. Cooked perfect and tasty... definitely get the green sauce as it is Pork Chili Verde with chunks of tender pork. Place feels warm and inviting and staff was really friendly. I will definitely visit again when in town. read more
