The staff was very welcoming and worked with a sense of urgency. I would highly recommend for anyone that wants great food and service!“

“If you're looking for fast food Mexican this is the place to go. Their food is authentic it's delicious it's affordable and they're servings are very generous. If you're looking for something a little higher class I would still recommend eating here I've been dozens of sit down Mexican restaurants and this restaurant's got better food than most of the other ones that are twice the price.“

“If you're looking for authentic Mexican food made with passion, Bubu's Restaurant is an absolute must-visit. Bubu's Restaurant

I ordered the mole chilaquiles, and they were nothing short of incredible. From the moment the plate arrived, you could see the attention to detail in the presentation. Every ingredient was thoughtfully placed, creating a dish that looked as amazing as it tasted.

The mole was rich, perfectly balanced, and full of deep, authentic flavor. You can truly taste the heart and love that goes into making it. Every bite felt homemade, comforting, and unforgettable. It's the kind of meal that reminds you why traditional Mexican cooking is so special.

To top it all off, the service was outstanding. Server was welcoming, attentive, and genuinely cared about making sure we had a great experience. Amazing food paired with exceptional hospitality is a winning combination.“

“Great food and an even better experience! Special shoutout to Matias, who was incredibly positive and welcoming. He made a point to engage with customers while we waited to order and created such a friendly atmosphere. His great attitude and hospitality really stood out. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Muy buenos los recomiendo excelente servicio“

“So glad we stumbled upon this place. Great service and excellent food. Will definitely become regulars. Recommend club sandwich and Chilaquiles!!!!“

“El fin de semana celebramos la quinceañera de mi hija en Rivera's Restaurant y todo estuvo excelente. Desde el primer acercamiento George siempre fue muy amable y comprensivo con lo que esperábamos para nuestra fiesta. La decoración y sobre todo la comida y atención a nuestros invitados fue excelente. Estamos convencidos que volveriamos a tener otro evento con ellos.“

“I finally have a local, good, and cost effective place near my house. So far I’ve had their cheese burger and fish ceviche. The burger was big and juicy. The fries were great. The fish ceviche was spiced so if you don’t like spice like me, ask them to put the vinaigrette on the side and add to your liking. But a good overall place that I recommend. They also do take out and call in for pick up. They do Door Dash and Grub hub too.“

“Yumm rica comida buen servicio el personal muy agradable muy limpio el restaurante recomendado🥰👌“

“We had a wonderful dining experience! Our server, Miguel, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable about the menu, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. He checked on us often throughout our meal and always offered to help with anything else we might like to order.
Miguel’s friendly and attentive service really added to our experience. The food and service were both great, and we will definitely be back. Highly recommend!“

“This place used to close super early despite its hours and even calling to see if it would be open but that hasn't happened in a long time... The food here is handmade and feels like it's a lot cleaner and higher quality than your typical taco stand style place. I appetite their tacos fajatos and burritos and it's honestly the best spot in town“

“First time visiting and staff is very friendly. Samantha helped me out as I was undecided with all the delicious options. I ordered the 2 Quesabirria taco plate. It came with rice, beans and consume. So delicious I order another to go. lol (Don’t judge me #foodlover). The restaurant is clean but was a bit warm. Had an AC on but in this heat, it was still a bit warm. Gave atmosphere 4 stars for that reason. Otherwise, very nice and chill spot. Samantha was great and very tentative.“

“I feel like I discovered this place - I saw about Puffy Tacos years ago but I’d never had one. And then “I” discovered Arturo’s! OMG! I’m here once to twice a week! Next week I’m bringing friends!“

“when we want a tasty meal, we come here. always delicious“

“❤️🥰😁❤️😁🥰❤️😍🤩❤️😎🥳❤️ We love Enrique's and their entire family ! They are such wonderful, kind and loving people who help so many people in need and we all love their food and we love them XOXOXOXOXOXOXO Love, Chris and Larry Laulhere“

“So delicious! Many selections for all palettes!“

“I was introduced to this place by a friend of mine who originally comes from Missouri. I would have never stopped here otherwise. It’s almost hidden and easy to pass right by. DELICIOUS tacos in a perfect little beach-friendly, local surfer type spot. Tables are literally next to the parking spots, just plopped in the lot. Come here for sunshine, great tacos and a reminder that life it full of greatness when you ditch the fluff. Great staff too! Cash only, fyi“

“We love Manny! Family owned this has the best food always. Breakfast burrito 🌯 😋 😍 to fast made to order lunches toco crunchy or soft choose of meat, burrito. Dinner specials l love the burria special the rice and beans are 👍 👌 Salsa bar. Friendly people. I 💕 this little place.“

“Definitely give this place a try! Friendly staff and delicious burritos - get em wet. The meat is very tender, the salsas and sauces have big time flavor and kick when you want it. Lots of tvs on the patio if you like that, but also open air if you don't.
Margs are wine-based, not full on tequila (But I don't think you'll notice.)“

“Delicioso, es como estar en Sinaloa“

“Love me a fish taco from taco nazo. This time I had the cravings for a shrimp cocktail as well - superb choice it turned out to be. Everything was very satisfying, good portion size, quick turn around.

They didn't have shrimp ceviche but kindly told me when they would prep more. Good service.“

“Seriously, one of the best breakfast burritos I've had, and don't even get me started on the tortas. So good!

I usually get a chorizo and egg breakfast burrito, adding chilaquiles and avocado. For the torta, I go for a milanesa torta, also with chilaquiles, and it's a ton of super delicious food. You really can't mess it up. The service is awesome, and the wait time is usually super quick. So, I totally recommend hitting up Tito's for their breakfast burritos or tortas de milanesa. And don't forget to add your favorite chilaquiles! Plus, the prices are really fair.“

“Super nice service and food“

“Alex! it's obvious you've never been to Don Ruben's Mexican food! The food is good the customer service is good I have no complaints I'm giving it a five-star review prices are excellent you can ask for more there's nothing fishy about it you need to get out and try something and if a place is good of course they're going to have all good reviews I feel sorry for you never seen a good place or tasted good Mexican food and I'm 100% Mexican so get out some try something new unless you're from another nearby restaurant trying to put a negative spin on something but don't revenge is excellent five stars for sure!“

“Great yumminess Awesome service“

“la comida estava delisiosa, el mesero muy atento . excelente servisio“

“Today was our first time here...and OMGosh...it did not disappoint! Friends & family have recommended Los Compadres and finally got to try this place! Food was sooo DELICIOUS, friendly atmosphere, customer service was EXCELLENT! We definitely will be going back...we cant wait to try other food on the menu...totally recommend it!“

“Super yummy spot with legit Mexican food, good chips and salsa too. Friendly staff - they’re just in a weird spot tucked behind Starbucks so they’re easy to miss.

If I lived closer I’d be all over this place.“

“I'm not going to Tijuana for just some tacos only if I go out to las pulgas!best club in Tijuana“

“Es mi primera ves este lugar está más que recomendado el menudo woow 🤤🤤y las gorditas regresaremos pronto para probar lo demás ♥️y quedamos fascinados con la decoración que tienen me encanto dios los bendiga“

“What a pleasant surprise! We stumbled across this place and decided to give it a shot for breakfast this morning... it instantly became our new favorite breakfast spot in OC. It was THAT good. Like, we're already planning to come try lunch here in a few days. The prices were very fair for the portion sizes (the breakfast burrito was huge!). Of course we had to try a couple of street tacos because my husband and I are kind of on a street taco kick right now, and omg. When I say their carne asada is the BEST we've tried so far - and we've tried LOTS - I am 100% serious, it is so freaking delicious! The al pastor too, soooo good. We can't wait to come back and try more! Also wanted to mention the gentleman at the counter who served us, I didn't catch his name, but he was so welcoming and kind. He might have been the owner, not sure. You HAVE to try Roman's if you're in the area... and even if you're not, it's worth going out of the way for. Amazing experience!“

“Had an amazing meal in a chic and cozy booth with spot-on decor, food presentation & atmosphere. Great margaritas!“

“Second time eating here and last time was a few months after they first opened. Tacos are still really good just a little overpriced for the size. Favorite one is la Paz fish taco on a purple tortilla. I like the 2 new added tacos which are the gobernador and the birria cheese. Michelada was ok.
The coffee stand is unique and I like their selections. Staff were all great.
Will try their menudo next time.“

“I just got back from going here with my daughter and I always recommend this spot to family and friends, I’ve been a fan of this place since I first went about four years ago.on a date. Such delicious food and unique options on the menu. I also like the atmosphere and the people that work there are always really friendly andcool people.“

“excelente customer service!! The food was amazing, not to say the portions were the best... A definitely must go and try.“

“We hosted my cousin’s birthday here with a HUGE group we basically took over the restaurant and the team handled it effortlessly!
The food was REALLY good. I had the Molcajete, and my kids loved the garlic shrimp and rice. Big thanks to Pablo in the kitchen for making everything so delicious.
The drinks were superb as well, courtesy of Lydia behind the bar. A huge shout-out to Marylou and Hector for so gracefully taking all of our orders, managing every single extra instruction, and keeping everything running smoothly for such a large party.
We will definitely be back!“

“Visiting the area and looking for a local restaurant offering fish tacos! The Fiesta Grill did not disappoint! We ordered the Asada taco and Fish Baja-Style tacos! Everything was so fresh and delicious! Highly recommend if you are looking for local and definitely non-commercial place to eat at! Friendly staff and nice atmosphere ♥️ 🌮 🥰“

“I highly recommended El Gallo Giro for the best carne asada burrito“

“This is an excellent restaurant in an attractive space with attentive service. For the quality, the price is more than fair.

The traditional ceviche with fish was fresh, complex, and came with multiple sauces. The empanadas were perfectly done, with the fish ones being a bit strong for our taste and the shrimp ones being really outstanding. We also had very rich, very filling Tacos Perrones whose fish was perfectly done. They serve fried tortillas instead of corn chips, which is both attractive and delicious. My only complaint would be that my margarita was kind of light on the alcohol.

Long Beach is lucky to have this place.“

“Great food, great music and great people! Join the Zero G Band on Saturday, July 6th from 6pm-9pm as we return to our favorite venue!“

“amazing food and customer service 👍“

“Fantastic hidden gem! Located in north long beach, this authentic Mexican restaurant is absolutely delicious. They have plenty of nostalgic dishes that you may remember a loved cooking for you. They have soups, tacos, and special dishes such as costillitas con nopales. I was left very much happily satisfied. Parking is a nightmare, they have a small lot. It is a mom and pop shop, so please keep that in mind when you arrive. Seating is extremely limited, but they have a couple chairs out front to ensure you're taken care of. Please tip if you can as I'm positive a place like this is not common anymore these days. The ladies who serve and take orders have the most cute uniforms and friendliest of service. Anything upon request!!! Please ask before you do. They have a specific seating order and will be happy to accommodate when you ask! Oh they do serve alcohol, beers and margaritas 😬“

“We spent about $100 for 3 people on the food we ordered & we couldn’t be more pleased with the food and service! Workers were so kind and we were so excited to try the food we forgot to take a picture of everything! 10/10 love this place!“

“What a fantastic dining experience I had! The atmosphere was absolutely beautiful, creating such a lovely vibe. And oh my goodness, those tacos were incredibly delicious! I'm already dreaming about going back to try the tamales next time. I can't wait!“

“The food was good! tried three a la cart items and was pleased with all of it...great pricing to boot!“
