Family Restaurants near Lytle Creek, CA

“it was honestly beautiful. the drive up there was nice and scenic, and the atmosphere was super peaceful, and the food was really good and had that delicious homemade touch to it, and the people are nice and friendly. overall i highly recommend this as a nice local spot for anyone in the area!“

“I almost never leave restaurant reviews, but this place absolutely earned one.

I ordered the chaufa de carne, but swapped the beef for chicken, and WOW. The chicken had this incredible smoky flavor that tasted like it came straight off the grill. The rice was cooked perfectly, and with the chicken and egg, the whole dish was packed with protein without sacrificing flavor.

Now let’s talk about that green salsa… as a Mexican, this is where restaurants usually lose me. 😂 If you’re going to hand me salsa, I expect it to make my mouth tingle, and this one DELIVERED. It actually has a kick! It wasn’t spicy just for the sake of being spicy either—it had amazing flavor. I’ve never had homemade chaufa, but if someone told me this is exactly what authentic homemade tastes like, I’d believe them.

On top of the food, the young man at the register was incredibly polite, welcoming, and knew the menu inside and out. He answered every question confidently and made ordering easy. Great customer service like that deserves recognition.

There was a full-on party in my mouth from the first bite to the last. I’ll definitely be back!“

“The food here is always delicious, my kids and I ate and enjoyed our time there. Our server Ms Chavez was great and super attentive. Our drinks were always full and she smiled the entire time. Definitely come to Norms in Rialto for the best service!“
