    Ladies restroom so cute. 2/7/26
    Yari S.

    My daughter sent me their videos from IG and so I decided to make it a mother daughter trip. We are an hour away from the place but honestly we weren't disappointed. There is plenty of parking. As soon as we walked in, we were immediately greeted and asked if it was a to go order or if it was dine in. Once we said it was dine in, we were asked to sit anywhere. I would say that the inside is clean it's brand new so nothing looks rundown or old. I ordered the papa Loca with Asada. Since it's a giant potato I feel like it needs a little bit more sauce only because the potato although it shouldn't be the only star of the show, it is quite overpowering for what is put on top. But I will say that what helped it was the quality of their meat. The asada was quite flavorful and they are generous with it. I did go to their salsa bar and they only have two sauces which in my personal taste and opinion needed more flavor more spice level and some salt. I should mention the salsa bar also has cucumber, radishes, plenty of limes, and I believe ketchup packets. No salt. Would have wanted some of that but I'm sure if you ask the ladies they will provide it. My daughter ordered the hot Cheeto burrito with asada. She loved it!! She finished it all up! The cheese sauce that is spread all over was so good it is like a mild spicy level nacho sauce. I will say it reminded a lot of the grilled cheese burrito at Taco Bell. It's one of my faves. Except this has excellent top tier carne asada of course. I will end it by saying that this place is worth a visit if you're definitely close by. I don't regret driving the hour because it was still an experience with my daughter and we had a good time. I do feel like it just needs a few retouches on some of the items that I was able to try so it tastes more authentically Mexican.

    Chilaquiles

    Dined here 5/6 11:30am. I don't understand their hours of operation. They have very few breakfast items and open at 7 AM during the week and 9 AM on weekends. The chips taste like they're out of a bag versus freshly fried. The diced meat is clearly out of a bag pre-cut and preseasoned. The rice and beans taste bagged also. It sucks because we could use a good authentic, Mexican food restaurant nearby. This was a chance for them to showcase their food and sadly we will not be back. With how slow it was (we were the only ones there), the front door glass could've been wiped, the salsa bar could've used a wipe also as well as the middle table that seemed dusty from the ceiling. The girl working was kind, but the food did not sell it for us. We'd rather go across the street to Flat Top Bar and Grill for their fresh homemade chips and salsa. Flat Top also has amazing Chilaquiles and tacos.

    2nd time and it was just as fantastic. So happy someone cares abiut food they serve. Their chicken tacos was fabulous. Also got a carne asada taco to split since it was so big. Great service and great prices. Will definitely be the weekly go to!

    Chilaquiles burrito

    I saw this place advertised on social media and it looked really good so I had to pull up and try it. Well I can't lie, I was very disappointed. I ordered the chilaquiles burrito. Firstly, they charge $4 on top of the price advertised if u add meat even though it says it comes with it,so the $13 turned into $19 and that makes no sense. 2nd the burrito wasn't very flavorful. The seasoning of the meat wasn't great and the egg was flavorless. And the burrito fell apart on me but they did give me a fork and knife. The food wasn't nasty just not much flavor. It's very unfortunate because I thought I was going to like this place. The salsa bar is legit I will give them that and it's really nice inside, but I doubt I'll be returning.

    I decided to stop in the other day to try this new place and everything was great. It was really nice inside, very clean, and the employees were friendly and helpful. I ordered a carne asada burrito, 2 carne asada tacos and 1 chicken taco. There was also a salsa bar to the side where you could help yourself to salsas/chilis/cucumbers/etc. The burrito came with rice, beans, meat, cilantro and onion. It was a decent sized burrito, and came with some chips on the side. I do wish it had a little more meat in it. I'll probably ask for extra next time. The tacos were good too. I really enjoyed the flavor of chicken taco best - cooked perfect and had great flavor. And the red and green salsas were both really good too. I did see they have a chili relleno burrito on their menu, and I look forward to trying it out next time!

    We're always excited to try new spots that pop up in Riverside, since it's home. It's a smaller location in one of the newer developments on Van Buren in the Woodcrest area. Though small, the inside is cute and trendy with the neon signage layered over foliage. I particularly liked the bathroom lol and I'm sure you can see why in the photos. The employees were very nice and welcoming. We ordered the chilaquile burrito (green, but you have a choice of red or green), the chile relleno plate (comes with two chile rellenos, rice n beans), the carne asada fries, an horchata, and a jamaica. We ordered to go at the counter and waited about 25 minutes or more for the food. The lady at the counter made sure we had our drinks while we waited, which was much appreciated. We didn't mind the wait too much, hoping that meant everything was homemade (within reason, of course). The presentation was was nice, even in the to go containers. The beans were tasty and they give you a choice of the cheese on top. The rice, chilaquile burrito, and chile relleno were a bit bland. The fries were perfectly cooked, the asada was well seasoned, and the chipotle sauce was SO good. The fries weren't the seasoned fries we saw on the menu video, so that was disappointing because it was one of the reasons we ordered those. It was our first time there, so I'm not sure if they ran out or changed it. They were still really good, though. The jamaica was good and not too sweet. The horchata seemed homemade but had a bit too much cinnamon for my taste. The food is moderately priced and they have desserts as well. We didn't try any this time, but the churros looked delicious.

    This place is new to the area and I definitely recommend it. The portions are a good size and the food is very tasty. The staff is friendly and show great customer service. The restaurant is very clean and super trendy with the cutest cleanest bathroom. Will definitely come back.

    Churros, ice cream, strawberry and chocolate.  Sorry I took a pic after I already started eating.  It started off beautifully done.

    Hot and tasty food. My favorite was the Al pastor burrito, perfection. My wife had tacos( steak and chicken) she loved them. Definitely going back soon. Oh, I indulged in an ice cream and churro dessert, absolutely delicious. Churros were crunchy, sweet and covered in cinnamon. Perfect end to a great dinner. Thank you for great food and service!!!

    Horchata

    The food here is so good and the customer service is really good I always enjoy eating food from Yeyes it's real Mexican food also the horchata is fire

    Ancho's is one of those places I honestly don't know if it's considered a hidden gem or not, but…read moreafter living in Riverside for the past 3-4 years, I can't believe I've never been here until now. I found out about it through my cousin, who's a UCR alum, and I'm really glad I finally got to try it. The staff were super nice and attentive, constantly coming by our table to check if we needed more water, tortillas, or anything else we might want. Even with how busy it was, they still made sure everyone was taken care of, which I really appreciated. The restaurant was packed, and it actually surprised me because I don't usually see that many people at restaurants in Riverside. The energy inside felt lively but still comfortable. One of my favorite parts was the fresh tortillas. They come out hot and fresh from the oven, and you can literally watch them being made right in front of you, which made it even better. And the best part is they're free. We ordered the carne fajitas and chile relleno. The fajitas were incredible, the meat was juicy, tender, and packed with flavor, with that perfect smoky sear that comes from being cooked fresh on a hot skillet. Everything came out sizzling and stayed flavorful with every bite. The chile relleno was also really good, with a nice balance of savory and slightly creamy filling that paired well with the sauce. It was actually my first time trying fajitas, and I can confidently say I'll be ordering them again the next time I come back. I definitely plan on returning while I'm still at UCR to make up for all the years I didn't know this place existed.

    I was brought here by a friend & colleague of mine whose whole family loves Anchos as it was his…read morefather's favorite restaurant. My first thought upon seeing the exterior and entering was, "OK, definitely old school", and I was right... Anchos has been around for an amazing 37 years and counting! The large open space is nice 'n brightly lit, yet somehow not too much so. As our hostess walked us to our table, we passed an enclosed tortilla-making machine where the freshest of the fresh tortillas seemed to be popping off the whirling dervish like Mexican hot cakes (which... yeah, duh). After ordering, we were quickly served a huge container of them-- so fresh, one could barely hold these 1000 degree piping hot discs. It was demonstrated to me that the classic way to enjoy the tortillas was to spread a little butter which melts almost instantaneously due to the sun-like hotness of the vessel, a quick dash of salt, and a dollop of their super freshly made mesquite-roasted tomato salsa makes for a yummy appetizer. While that was delicious, for me, the true test of a tortilla is to try it plain first. And boy, did it deliver! The style is slightly more risen than traditional, but tasty none-the-less, and I would soon find out why its actually the perfect tortilla for our main entrées-- the CARNE mesquite grilled plump skirt steak fajitas! Now I am always dubious when a restaurant calls out that one of their items is "FAMOUS" and actually prints it right on the menu, but in this case I truly get it. These thick juicy slices of mesquite grilled skirt steak are mind-glowingly muy delicioso, and YES, they are plump indeed. We ordered medium-rare, and they came out to perfection! Years ago, I wrote the steak fajitas at the Rio Grande restaurant in Boulder, CO had "the absolutely unequivocal best steak fajitas I have ever tasted in my life!", and I tell you, these really put that statement to the test. If I'm being honest, the steak itself at Anchos is truly on another level. It's not that it's the best "fajita steak" I've ever had, it's possibly the best "steak steak" I've ever had. OK, that's probably an overstatement, but it's not too far off. While I still think the accoutrements of the Rio Grande fajitas (mainly their phenomenal grilled peppers & onions) are standouts, the carne asada here at Anchos is nothing short of amazing! And those tortillas... yup, the slightly extra thickness holds up well when you fill it with with the extra thick cut carne asada, and their tasty arroz con frijoles, onions & peppers. Mi plato was WAY too much food, and I happily ate every single bite :-) All-in-all, Anchos still delivers after almost 4 decades of serving the Riverside community, and I hope it's around for decades to come because as I looked around, not only were my friends enjoying Anchos, but everyone in the restaurant seemed to be beaming with the excitement of the great food & service from this wonderful family gem.

The owner, Santiago, allowed us to come a half hour beforehand to decorate & we came in, not knowing what to expect. Upon our arrival, the birthday cake was promptly whisked away to the kitchen, we found Santiago PERSONALLY on his hands & knees fixing the electrical cords for us, our servers introduced themselves & graciously helped us rearrange the set-up to accommodate the band we brought in. Then helped us rearrange the layout yet again once we realized the band needed to be next to the electrical outlets. I was embarrassed to even ask so I started doing it myself but they jumped right in without being asked. If I'm being honest, usually I'm not a fan of buffet meals, so I wasn't expecting much. But everything served was SO delicious! The fajitas were my favorite dish, not only flavorful but also nice & moist. Not only that, but they refilled the food for us as it ran out. They brought out to-go boxes for the leftovers, & best believe my family took home every last bite! The lime margarita tower was SO yummy but also hella dangerous because it was strong!! Other restaurants will give you watered down drinks but El Patron doesn't play. We were only planning on one but it was so good, we couldn't resist getting another. From start to finish, the servers (Leslie and Cecilia) were on POINT. Their service went above & beyond expectations-- continuously checking on us, refilling drinks/food, taking photos, etc. Not only that, but also, when my young autistic nephew unfortunately got sick, they were so incredibly compassionate about it & helped clean up the mess right away. I was absolutely blown away by the attention to detail & quality of care. As my grandma is getting older, we are especially cherishing these final years with her. We spent thousands overall (venue, music, photographer, special mass, etc) but every last cent was worth seeing her happy with all of her loved ones. After many months of planning, I was super nervous about something going wrong but I can honestly say that core memories were made. Thank you to Santiago, Leslie & Cecilia for your hospitality, good food & work ethic-- it truly meant so much for our family unit.
