50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Running Springs

“Great place. Alex was great“

“Victoria's saves me from cooking dinner at least twice a week, and now they have delivery it might become more days! Everything is tasty, generous, fresh and thoughtfully prepared. The family and staff are so lovely and as locals we feel welcome and well fed every visit. Cannot recommend highly enough. Try the pizza. They apparently have an Italian pie genius hiding out the back. Delicious!“

“Always friendly service and consistently good food. We come back often!“

“A family member recommended this place. We ordered 3 fish tacos, and 3 shrimp tacos. I kid you not, these are some of the best dang fish/shrimp tacos I've ever had in my life! Perfectly fried, and so crispy on the outside. The salsas were great. Portions are generous. Prices are reasonable. The workers are friendly. I 100% recommend this to anyone craving some good food. Baja King is one of San Bernardino's hidden gems! 🌮🇲🇽“

“This place surprised me. I got the chile relleno. It was so fresh tasting. The chips and salsa are amazing. My man got pork Colorado. He ate his whole plate. Beans are really good and not over salted. Also got a cactus pear margarita that was the best cactus pear margarita I have ever had. The service was superb. We will be going back. Wish I would've known about them a lot earlier when I moved into highland.“

“I had a great experience at Fuego Cravings! I stopped in for a lunch break and ordered the surf and turf burrito with a horchata, and both were absolutely delicious. The food was fresh, flavorful, and definitely hit the spot after a busy day of work.

The staff was also very polite, kind, attentive, and welcoming. It’s always nice to support a local business that takes pride in both their food and customer service.

I highly recommend Fuego Cravings if you’re looking for some delicious food and great service. I’ll definitely be coming back! 🌯🔥🥤“

“Everything you order is done to perfection by Joel, a great chef. Monica treats everyone very special and remembers everyone's name. You can have taco specials on Tuesdays, and beef ribs on Thursdays. Comes with corn, potato, and cornbread made by Monica. Might not be able to finish it all. They have excellent breakfasts, hamburgers, pizza, and deserts, also. Don't miss any opportunity to enjoy this local hangout.“

“I had delish Carnitas tacos today ! Hands down true Michoacan flavor in Riverside ! Carnitas with Skin are my favorite. The managers Stephanie, Nicole, and Tony were very sweet and attentive! Loved the music and after driving 100+ miles from San Diego, I had to stop to enjoy great carnitas tacos. The food comes out hot, fresh, and packed with seasoning that actually delivers. Portions are generous, and staff are friendly, and welcoming. If I'm in Riverside this is my go-to spot. Highly recommend it !🙂“

“Chicken Garbage Burrito!!“

“Great place to eat! Great menu and taste! Desert and drinks! Friendly customer service!“

“The food was delicious! I ordered the Chile Verde wet burrito my brother ordered the chicharon burrito and soft taco de chorizo con papa's! My nephew got the nachos supreme chicharone nachos! The pork meat in the Chile Verde and the chicharones full of carne we're both really good and tasty. Abuelita in the kitchen has it going on! I highly recommend this place and the for the price was really low $43 for everything!“

“Mi familia y yo somos clientes desde que abrieron en 1991 hasta la fecha, buena comida y muy buena atención al cliente, súper amables. Cien 💯 recomendados 👌“

“We love coming here! The food is great. The staff is always so nice and the restaurant is so clean and cozy. I always get the chilaquiles and my daughter eats my beans and rice and then she adds something on. Today she added on Abondigas! She loves the selection of Jarritos and the endless chips and salsa! It's our favorite mommy and daughter date!“

“OK guys first time coming here on the Management the owner said he been running for six months now and let me tell you we ordered two birria taco asada some Cali fries and a vampiro let me tell you it did not point. The food was on point. Good flavor the Meat nice and tender plus the drink are fire .. we love the customer service. We love the atmosphere come and check them out here in San Bernardino.“

“Burritos are what we order and they are delicious…. And HUGE! Tortillas seem like they are freshly made… try the ranchero breakfast burrito with potatoes …. Carne asada combo with rice, beans, pico and comes with cabbage …. so Good. Tracy is awesome and greets with a smile!!!“

“This place is a taco stand. They have enclosed seating and outdoor seating. Very small place. Just recently heard they were opened. When I was a kid I use to eat at the location of Mount Vernon and Mill St in San Bernardino. This place took me back to my childhood. Still taste the same as I remember it.“

“Awesome menudo and service!!!“

“Best mariscos restaurant I've ever tried! You can truly taste the love and care that goes into every dish. Everything was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and authentic. The pastries were also delicious—my favorite was the flan!
The service was outstanding as well. The owner was so attentive, welcoming, and friendly with every customer, making the whole experience even more special. The ladies in the kitchen definitely know what they're doing—their seasoning is absolutely amazing.
I drive all the way from El Monte just to eat here, and it's worth every mile. I highly recommend this place to anyone who loves seafood and authentic Nayarit-style cuisine. You won't be disappointed!“

“Don't let the fact that it's in the back of a gas station throw you. There are tables where you can eat and the food is fantastic! At least the chicken tacos were--thats all I had. They come with TONS of well seasoned meat and there's a condiments bar where you can add what you like. Staff were friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!!!“

“Love this place, I’m there 2-3 times a week 👍🏽 it’s very clean and the workers are friendly“

“Carne Asada Tacos.......yummmmmm!!!!!“

“Drive Thru Pick:
LITERALLY THE BEST BURGER IVE EVER EATEN!!!
Got the number 6 and was juicy. Fries were awesome also.
( im from Louisiana so I know what those fries were) ( Thank you for that home style cajun seasoning on the fries ).
But still, BEST BURGER IVE EVER ATE!!!
Yall Are Amazing.“

“Miguel's Jr...You should go here. Marvelous place, just what I was looking for. So clean inside, the food is so fresh, and they give you real sour cream, of course, for a few cents more. The servers do not complain. I can't believe how fresh and homemade the food is. My boyfriend wants to go there everyday, but unfortunately we can't. Thank you Miguel's..

“My BFF from Redlands overnights Cuca’s to me because I miss their burritos 🌯and I live in Missouri 📦!! They’re my FAV Mexican food 😍“

“Update 7.10.26 inconsistent quality, another burrito , this time not quite as good. I think I will remove 1 star from the food category.
I ordered a Carney asada burrito with everything a few days ago, it was one really good burrito, it came with tomato salsa or pico de gallo and a generous portion of guacamole. The only problem with fast food places like this is , they're inconsistent quality, this time it was very good. What made it even better was taking it home and putting my own green sauce on it.“

“You will not find a more authentic Mexican restaurant in the area. I grew up in Rosarito Beach, Mexico where there is a variety of Mexican food from different parts of the country. The most impressive aspect is that you can order Caldo de Birria, Menudo, Pozole, De Res, De Pollo, 7 Mares , Camarón, Pescado... MOLE all from one place and on ANY day of the week(very unusual) and it’s SPECTACULAR! If someone asked me to take them out for authentic Mexican food, this would be the place I’d take them. I’ve never seen so much variety in one restaurant! Many are difficult entrees and they are all executed perfectly. Best Mexican food restaurant I’ve EVER encountered. Every dish I’ve ordered has been delicious and authentic... tastes like home. Hands down my favorite 🤩! Also, the horchata is amazing. Can’t go wrong!“

“Me and my wife came for the 49ers vs Seahawks playoff game. It was really busy but expected to be at this time. Food took a little while but understood with so many orders they had to fill. It was really good! We ordered chicken wings (big pieces! And we’ll done) jalapeño poppers, onion rings and a personal sized pepperoni pizza. Good family atmosphere, and wanna come back with some more friends and family!“

“Molcajetes are the best..“

“Although the market, it does not have the inventory of a grocery store but rather a market, has really basically turned into a market that carries a lot of Latino foods, they have a decent produce area. They have a butcher and their meat selection is okay. If you are in the mood and want Mexican food that is fresh and hot, visit the cocina. I especially like that they make tortillas fresh on site. I never buy pre-packaged tortillas any more. I rate them a four because of the lack of more varieties of certain foods and at times the cashiers can be rather rude. I've noted that the attitude is aimed at their non Latino customers.“

“The best tacos in the Del Rosa area.
They have amazing tortss, burritos, tacos,aguas, even pastries. The salsa bar is always fresh. So is the salsas. Love that you guys serve beans in the side of your plates. Makes me feel at home. When I come down to visit from out of town.
My uncle use to take me here when I was a kid. Love that they remodeled. Reminds of home in Mexico.
Clean, staff is friendly, they cook your order to your liking. The meats are always soft.
Thank you guys.

Even after covvid the food still taste the same. Not like other places.

Recommended to come here to anyone visiting from out of town and also it's always very clean in the hood but best deals you'll get.“

“Honestly, I was never a big fan of Chipotle. I always thought it was over rated.
I came in today because I got a free burrito coupon during teacher appreciation week. Well this location was excellent. The young lady making my burrito today and the young woman who rang me up were the best example of Chipotle workers I have ever encountered. They were so good at their jobs and exemplified good customer service. They made me reevaluate my position on Chipotle. Kudos to both and I'm sad I didn't get their names but it was 2:44pm on Thursday, June 4th. (Edited to make it clear this is an overwhelmingly good review)“

“Wonderful. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, pretty good food. Would come back again . Would recommend to others.“

“Good service and prices, recommend 100%“

“So GOOD!!😍 love this placeee !! Me and my hubby always get our fix when we are in town 😋😋 @amapola branch out to Nevada pleaseeeeeee you definitely make a lot of 💰💰🤑“

“Clean (Restaurant/Meat Market)and had everything I needed hamburger cook out.The ground beef was excellent, the same crowd of people and same recipe, the only difference was the ground beef.. everyone complemented on the quality and juiciness of the meat.The Chorizo seco is also better quality and better tasting than other local carnicerías.Good Service.Good Prices.Clean.Quality meats, poultry and pork.Can’t give it five stars only because I haven’t tried their seafood or restaurant.“

“I totally recommend the Figueroa virrieria, the customer service is the best, the virria has a delicious flavor, the quesavirrias together with their Salsa ♥️ I enjoyed my food very much, and they also have a very good atmosphere....I totally recommend that you ballan approve. Atte Angie..“

“Wonderful, accommodating staff, delicious food at affordable prices. Went twice during our 3 days here and each time they didn’t disappoint. My party tried the Albondigas Soup (there were 8 meatballs in a bowl of it for just under $6), the Chicken wrap (my friend said it was probably the best she’s had), both the Chicken & Ground Beef Enchiladas with refried beans (that were perfect) & rice, Shredded Beef Burrito and the al la carte Ground Beef Tostada…. And we give a thumbs on every single item. We also tried their… “Mango Margaritas”, “Long Island Iced Tea” and the “Killer Margarita”, no complaints on those either. The bartender definitely knows how to make a drink!“

“I ordered plenty of food, I had to bring some home, couldn't eat it all, but I'm not complaining I love left overs. I'm ready to go back and order more food. People friendly, food is served quick and hot. Soda fountain is open, all you can drink. Lots of seating room.

Parking: Parking is open to all who wish to park in order to enjoy their meal.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheel chairs are welcome and there's handicap parking near the entrance.“

“Great vegetarian options. However the physical menu board was just replaced. The vegetarian options are not listed on the board. This location finder came up with the correct street and address numbers. But, it was listed as Highland Park, SC instead of Highland CA.“

“Delicious tacos and soups“

“Delicious Mexican food! Made fresh in front of you. Fairly priced. House dressing is to die for. Open kinda late. Highly recommend the shredded chicken salad! Also recommend ordering online for quick pick-up though. It can get busy! ...but check your order before you leave. I've had them forget items or my dressing before. USE THE APP: great rewards, and easy to earn $10 toward future purchases. I wish there were more locations closer to me!“

“I had the carnitas nachos and they had literally 4 strands of meat. The "cheese" was liquid, the sour cream was a dollop size and had a million of jalapeño slices and 10 gazillion nachos o and maybe 2 spoonfuls of beans. Soup spoonfuls. Worst fast food ever. Boise Id“
