23 Best Taco Restaurants in Riverside

“Excellent Food is always fresh Service is genuinely nice“

“I stopped in briefly on Monday afternoon around 6:30/45pm. It wasn't too busy and the young man behind the counter was kind and energetic when he greeted me as I walked in. He made a few recommendations from the menu. I ordered a Birrieria quesadilla to go. It was delicious, massive, and a great value for the price. I would recommend it to anyone and everyone.“

“Awesome food. Nice people. Love the manager brought in an extra table for all of us to eat together“

“If you’re looking for top-tier vegan food in the IE, Veganvato in Riverside, is it. This all-vegan food truck is hands down one of the best in the area for vegan tacos and burritos.

I had the soyrizo taco and the BBQ jackfruit taco, and both were incredibly flavorful and satisfying. I also loved that they use two tortillas, so the tacos don’t fall apart; such a small detail that makes a big difference.

My partner ordered the al pastor burrito, and he absolutely loved it. But the real star of the show was the chile de árbol salsa, easily the best we’ve had.

Highly recommend Veganvato if you’re in the Riverside/IE area and craving amazing vegan food!“

“Some sketch behavior last time I was there from one of the employees (hadn't seen him there before) - paying people off the street, dropping bags behind that side door, calling people for cash - I dunno! I just hope nothing shady - don't want to be around it if so! He was friendly though and the food is still yummy!!!

Update 08/26/24: Been here a few more times... I keep intending to try other items, but that taco plate calls my name EVERY time! ;P And it never disappoints!! Different staff member this time but just as friendly. Keep supporting small businesses like this that offer a quality product, good value, and great attitudes/customer service!

Let me start this out by saying, I am picky about my meat!! I usually will try a carne asada taco & maybe beans/rice at a place, as a test item to see if I'll order more and go back.

Tacos here are meaty and have great flavors!! Not chopped up gristle & fat either but pure chunks of meat and each taco is generously stuffed! Staff are extremely nice and hard working! I'll be craving these and now I have to go back to try the chile relleno burrito!!

I got a generous taco plate w/ 3 (fat) tacos (beans & rice), Mexi coke bottle, and left a tip, all for around $20.

**Support small businesses**“

“The food is good. My wife had the Fajita baked potato and I had the pork chop dinner. Everything was really good. Our server was very attentive and nice. We have also been here for breakfast when it is extremely busy and our experience was the same friendly staff, good food, clean restaurant. I like the small town feel you get here.“

“Amazing food.Service is always perfect, food is always on point, and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. Always looking forward to this place. the sea food is exceptionally good!“Diana is so good with her customer service 😁“

“Great flavor on all meats pastor, asada, cabeza and other organs (soo good). The team lost some people due to the city forcing all vendors to actual food trucks, seems like they let some folks go. But the flavor is still the same. Self serve sauces, and they have this super hot one in a pour handle. If you like spice try it. The green avacado sauce is less spicy and my 2nd favorite sauce. The portion does seem smaller than prior to the food truck.“

“Had Sanchez tacos cater our wedding . Hands down the best . Set up was amazing , plenty of food and tasted Amazing. My next event I will hire them again to cater“

“I've been going here for almost thirty years it's great .it could use a makeover but whatever..the food is great..tripsas is like my aunt used to Make for me .caldo de res even fried chicken..but the rellenos..it's a no..only thing not good“

“Delicious food. Fast & friendly service..“

“This place is pretty good . We had the fish taco meal for about $13 dollars . Came with rice and beans . Let me tell you the tacos were piping hot and fresh 10/10 . They will bring you lemons and peppers witch I have to also add the pepper was seasoned, now that was a game changer , I spilt it open took the seeds out and I lace it on my tacos 10/10 . We also shared 3 rolled tacos . It was also good but I will add pretty expensive but definitely worth every penny . We used the chips they gave us as nachos with the green sauce they have and leftover beans rice and other leftover veggies . All in all a perfect meal .. I complemented the chef cause if the food is perfect the chef should know . Oh and horchata taste like Cinnamon Toast Crunch milk . 10/10 but no refill . Only juices are free refill . Next time“
