    I ordered medium. They gave me medium rare steak

    steak prepared incorrectly another male manager handled that appropriately free chips mistakenly charged by Vanessa I showed the offer which was sitting on table from minute 1 as I entered instead of correcting it, Vanessa the manager accused me of logging in after she printed the receipt and accused me of having an attitude! She also said "our tap to pay doesn't work, it's on the door" -- lol, No tip!

    Met three former co-workers here for lunch and we were seated in a booth in the bar area. The bartender was our server and was excellent (and had a great sense of humor). I ordered the Oldtimer Burger which came with fries. We came at the lunchtime rush so it took about 20 minutes for our food to come out. My burger had cheese, pickles, tomato, and lettuce (I requested no onion). The burger was juicy and everything on the burger was fresh and flavorful. The bun had been grilled and was very greasy - by the time I finished I felt like I'd washed my hands in a tub of Wesson oil. The fries were just fine as was my iced tea. It was a decent meal enhanced by great service. This Chili's is located at Downtown Buena Park mall so there is a ton of parking.

    1st time in Chili's, restaurant was packed tonight on Sunday.We ordered Chicken Crispers Combo, Classic Sirloin Steak w/ Mash Potatoes Triple Dipper Meal & Molten Chocolate Cake for dessert and everything was very good! Our server was Super Friendly (unfortunately forgot his name) he came back couple of times to check if everything was good and also took care couple of our requests about our meal! A well spend late evening at the Chili's!

    So many different food options and great combos at Chili's, including soups, salads, burgers, sandwiches, steaks, chicken, and pasta. Typically timely and friendly service. No complaints! Good location for dates, family dining, or any occasion

    I've come to this location with my little family already probably 10+ times, I've had a waitress named Jessica (usually in the booths by the check in ladies) about 3 or 4 times already , and she's such a sweetheart everytime we come in. I just hope she knows she makes every single encounter we have with her amazing and so easy! Every visit I've had at this location was great service and food . Management is doing great obviously cause I've never had a waiter/waitress having a bad day and visibly showing it since I've dined here. Went last night and felt very urged to make this post becus of our waitress jessica!!!

    My friends and I came to Chili's on a busy night but we were still seated pretty quickly and our server, Christian C, was fantastic! He was so attentive and friendly. This was actually my second time having him as a server.

    It was a busy Monday! Our host was very nice and we wanted to sit in the booth instead of the high chairs so we waited 15-20mins. Our server Jessica did a phenomenal job! She was very friendly and attentive. I would say she was the best sever I ever had, thank you for making our experience wonderful. Chips & salsa 7/10! Watermelon tea 6/10 Triple dipper: everything was on point crunchy and delicious. 9/10 Ultimate smokehouse 9/10! Lava cake 10/10 was very yummy

    Bought $100 for two gift cards $50/each  from Chili's. Got two $10/each extra gift cards.

    Stopped by our local B.P. Chili's after the batting cages for some delicious burgers, nachos, and fun margaritas. We were seated quickly in their cozy and comfortable little dining room and feasted on deliciousness for a while as we were catching up on stories and activities. Our awesome and friendly server delivered our meals in a timely manner and we can't wait to return soon!! Thank you Chili's

    Paula R.

    Christian was a great server. Very helpful and kind. Definitely recommend sitting with him. The smash burger is bomb and the restaurant was quiet and comfortable.

    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.

First time coming to the restaurant for all of us. The ambience was cool and I liked the fact that they made the tortillas fresh. The food was cool I guess. My grandmother got the chicken fajitas but there were no bell peppers with it, just onions. The tamale was mid. My Dad and myself ordered a basic bean and cheese burrito. I did not like the fact that it wasn't mentioned that the beans are made with bacon until AFTER we received our food! My dad doesn't eat meat and the rice is made with chicken as well. The server did bring him something else but this needs to be stated on the menu or upon ordering! We were sat right next to where they made the tortillas and can see them being made since they had glass windows around it. However, there was one gentleman that was making tortillas who was on his cell phone texting or whatever CONSTANTLY at the same time while doing this. He had a glove on one hand and no glove on the other, and was touching the tortilla dough.....We all know how dirty a cell phone is! And what made it worse is at one point he itched the inside of his nose with his finger, and didn't even wash his hands or have gloves on after that. Definitely made my stomach turn and what caused me to go and write this review. I suggest a camera be placed at the tortilla station, add the notes about bacon in the beans and chicken in the rice, and add bell peppers to the fajitas. Also, maybe give the option of meatless beans and rice for the non-meat eaters

Whether made from flour or corn, the tortilla is fried until it puffs up, creating a crispy shell with light, airy pockets--like a cross between flatbread and traditional tortilla. On this visit, I tried a ground beef, carne asada and carnitas taco. I also tried the taquitos Texanos. The taquitos were decent but nothing special. A tortilla was rolled into a tube, stuffed with ground beef, and deep-fried. The beef was a bit dry and lacked distinctive seasoning. The taqueria's salsa verde, sometimes called salsa falsa, was also lacking in flavor. Of the three tacos I tried, the carne asada and carnitas were the best. The ground beef is very traditional. The carne asada had a decent sear to it. The carnitas verged on being a bit over cooked, but were otherwise tender. Each taco was topped with shredded lettuce and cheese.

In a time where consistency is rare, this place has stayed absolutely top notch from day one. The food is always on point, fresh, flavorful, and made with care every single time. Kenny and John are some of the nicest people you will ever meet, and they genuinely make you feel like a valued customer. You can tell they take pride in what they do, and it shows in every order that comes out of the kitchen. Their hot sauce is incredible and easily my favorite anywhere. It is one of those flavors you do not forget and a big reason I keep coming back week after week. I eat here about once a week and have for years, and I can recommend just about everything on the menu. My go to is the chips and cheese, which is an absolute must, along with the shredded beef tacos, potato tacos, and enchiladas. They also have great carne asada fries, and what makes them stand out is that they use thick, golden crispy fries instead of the thin shoestring kind, which makes a huge difference. They even have something you will not find anywhere else, enchilada fries, which are fries covered in enchilada sauce and cheese, and you can add carne asada if you want. It is simple and incredible. The ambience is part of what makes this place so special. It is a small family owned spot that is always clean and comfortable. Everyone inside, including the customers, is friendly, and there is always a good vibe because people are genuinely happy to be there enjoying the food. Sometimes there is a small TV on, and other times you will hear music playing from behind the counter, which just adds to the charm. It feels welcoming, relaxed, and real. It is a cash only place, but they do have an ATM inside, so it is easy to plan for. At the end of the day, there is just nothing like Little Caboose. Places like this are rare, and I do not think there will ever be another quite like it. Once you try it, you will understand why so many people become regulars for life. Thank you for over 30 years of amazing food, consistency, and great service.

I'll go one by one as I really didn't skimp on any of it..... First off, the brisket was so tender I couldn't even get it on to my plate originally. I had to keep stabbing at it with a fork and it just kept falling into pieces it was magical. The flavor was amazing with the perfect combination of that smokey and fire grilled taste. Didn't even need to use any sauce, but don't sleep on their BBQ sauce it had the perfect flavor of not too acidic and not too sugary. It's hard to stop eating it. I had to follow it up with the brisket quesadillas because.... well because they were staring at me and I had to show them who was boss.... Again, insane flavor combo and pleasantly addicting. Next move I had to throw down on a couple of hot wings to make sure my taste buds were still jumping and ready for the upcoming situation. Just for reference purposes, nice little kick with a bit of smokey flavor. Could've eaten 20 in one sitting but was continuing on my path of BBQ destruction. We now veered over to the baby back ribs .... I think I ate 10 before I realized what was going on. Yet again, the flavor was perfect and the meat was cooked to perfection. It didn't need any sauce, but I was a big fan of loading up on the BBQ sauce for these bad boys..... Next I shifted my fat eyed focus over to the tri-tip. It had that perfect pink center looking like a medium rare meaty super model. I went a different route here and dipped it into this horseradish sauce concoction that I never seen or heard of in my life. I don't know what was in that sauce, but it was phenomenal. I could have literally eaten this stuff by itself, but everyone was looking so I didn't want to make it weird. The tri-tip itself didn't even need any sauce and was super juicy, but that sauce just elevated the taste to another level. Now we decided to go a different location on the farm pay tribute to some smoked chicken. I had to dabble with both the BBQ sauce and the horseradish sauce as my dipping/smothering choices for this tasty bird. Couldn't even tell you how great it was without the sauce, since my mind was already fading trying to fight off my meat sweat coma. Lastly for our protein portion of the evening, I had to top it off with some of that pulled pork. Now this was extremely flavorful and some of the best I've had in quite some time. I did however enjoy lathering it up with that BBQ sauce like some of his fellow plate mates I already devoured. I will give a shout out to the sides, even though I only had a brief taste of each as I was going hard on the proteins. High fives to the potato salad, coleslaw, Mac and cheese, street corn, corn bread, tator tots and collard greens. I may have possibly missed one or 2, but after gorging on disgusting amounts of food, you tend to forget things. Had to make sure to sneak some of those greens in there so my heart didn't give out.... I however did not indulge in the chips and salsa that were there since I didn't want to come off as a pig..... So instead (as I forgot to mention previously), I took the queso and poured it over some pulled pork because that's what needed to happen at that moment.... Boom! For the grand finale, we had this banana pudding dessert that literally put me over the top. If I could openly cuss on this platform, I genuinely would.... It was absolutely orgasmic. That's right, you read that correctly. I don't know what they put in that thing, but to call it amazing would be an understatement. Pretty sure I blacked out at some point while finishing my bowl of dessert. As you can read, I was not a fan of any of the food in any way shape or form.(Sarcasm ...) I look forward to going back, but I will need to wait until I awake from this painful food coma I've been fighting off since the ending of the World Cup match watching USA beat the breaks off of Bosnia with one man down. Much love on the food and I happily dedicate this extra fat fold on my stomach and the 8lb weight gain to AJ's BBQ.
