Nothing fancy, but it doesn't need to be -- the food is excellent, the staff is friendly. The only downside is a small parking lot, but there is usually easy street parking just around the corner. read more

We had a horrible experience with the owner "Maria" (her real name is Daisy btw). She is so unprofessional and thinks she can treat customers like garbage just bc she's the owner. There was no need in treating us the way she did. She needs training in customer service. Arrogant and argumentative all because of the seating area and saying our group wasn't consuming. We were waiting for the rest of our party to get there to continue to order, which I had already ordered 2 drinks and a platter in the meantime. Never again will my family, friends and I will be returning there after so many years of supporting them. Esa señora es Peleonera y altanera, necesita tomar clases para cómo tratar a sus clientes. read more

it was amazing service and the food was delicious. My date had the spinach enchiladas. I had the fish enchiladas definitely going back back. It was a to go order but next time I wouldn't mind sitting there and enjoying myself for a while while. read more

My husband and I found this absolutely quaint Mexican restaurant by accident. While using our Maps in CarPlay, we looked at the restaurant suggestions near us. I looked them up in Yelp and decided to try it out and we are so glad we did. The food was delicious, the milieu was relaxing, and the service was great. We one thousand percent recommend it. The food tastes homemade, it just doesn't get more authentic than that. I had the Sopes and they were by far the best I've ever had. Their Sope itself was soft but lightly crisp on the outside. My husband had the Enchiladas de Mole and the face he made when he took his first bite was priceless. I could tell it took him back to his younger days. This will be our new go to spot whenever we're in the area. read more

Delicious food and service. I've had the chilaquiles and green enchiladas which were both so good. Their green sauce is the best. Their salsas are so good with chips. Anytime I'm in the area I try to stop by. Great little spot. read more

As usual the Nachos (my favorite) were wonderful. Delicious bean bottom, generous fresh, not greasy nachos delicious and plenty of beef and loaded with cheese and topped with guacamole,sour cream and chilies on the side. Delivery was quick and respectful. I've been a loyal customer for years and really enjoy the food , the vibe and the exceptionally kind lady at the entrance. Thanks you very much read more

I have driven by this place several times and have always wanted to stop by. And when I did I was so happy I did. Very friendly owner amazing service delicious food!!! They're not too far from where I live and wanting to support local businesses to make sure that they stay open during this whole Covid pandemic has been a challenge but I'm glad I went here and I have had crunchy shell tacos I like the Carnitas the best. The enchiladas are very good add so is the rice and beans. I should've put this review up a couple of years ago, but I didn't. I am really working diligently at cleaning out my drafts. I stopped by there just yesterday and picked up some chicken tortilla soup which I happen to really love so I go in you know, it's always clean everyone's always friendly and I placed my order in my order comes up and I take it home sometimes I stay and eat there, but for the most part, I take it home... the meatball soup is also really tasty as well... Next time you're in the area give them a try there's always taco Tuesday! read more

Pretty standard Mexican fare, executed without flaws or enthusiasm. It' scratches the itch, tastes good, delivery preparation is fast, and best of all, it's consistent. If you don't expect white gloves and a server in a tux, you will be very happy with this establishment. read more

El Rio Bravo Restaurant - Carnitas Burrito - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Culver City, California

My wife and our 2 kids (7 and 11) come here every couple of months. The food is delicious and service is great. They are very friendly. We love their cheese enchiladas, crispy tacos, quesadillas, and carnitas tamale. I've also had the chili verde, carnitas, and wet burrito. They are all solid, as are the chips and guacamole (and salsas). The place feels like a hidden gem. We've never been there when it's crowded and it feels like our special family place to go to for mexican food. Delicious! read more

What a shame.. Had such high hopes. The food tastes old and reheated. Service was shocking for a restaurant. Took our order with an attitude then never check on our table. Dirty glasses with fingerprints on them and sticky tables. Felt rushed and very awkward during the entire time. I will pass the word to everyone I know and I wouldn't eat there even if you paid me to. read more

Low key on the outside, festive on the inside, we've been here twice now. Have tried several different dishes, love the chips and guacamole, but watch out for one of the salsas, it's hot! Service is very attentive, very anxious to please. I love spicy, but even basic food is quite spicy so ask before ordering, or taking a big bite! We will come here often now that we have found it! read more

This place has been a regular lunch spot for post-climbing workout at Cliffs Of Id. Today was my first desayuno experience and it is every bit as good as my favorite lunch (chile verde burrito). Huevos a la Mexicana is my mexi-comparison meter. Here is above average, best of the nearby spots. I'll be back to try the machaca and eggs burrito. read more

Food is good and the staff is nice. Need to have whole beans and black beans as a choice over refried.. patio needs work. I enjoyed the chips and guacamole. read more

Absolutely love this place. An authentic Mexican restaurant in Mid city. My Husband and I have been going here for years and will definitely continue and enjoy our burritos and margaritas read more

Wow, can't believe I didn't know about this place! I live only two minutes away, but I never noticed this restaurant before. Apparently, it's been around for 17 years already... Really loved the atmosphere, and how super clean it was inside. Seating was very comfortable and the service was fast and attentive. The food is even better, and extremely authentic. (I lived in Mexico for two years so I know what REAL Mexican food is like...) They have the standard fare -- like Burritos and Tacos -- but they also have dishes you might not find on a typical Mexican menu. I had the Chile Relleno combo plate and my friend had the carne asada burrito. Both were delicious, super tender, and bursting with flavor. I will absolutely be coming back soon!!! read more

We just loved the food. Very delicious and fresh. My burrito was filled to the brim with steak and beans and it was soft to cut. The tocos were fresh and very yummy my wife said . So this a great place. read more

I wanted street tacos, they said, Let's go here!" I ordered the carnitas...they were just ok, not crispy shreds like I am familiar and hung up on. The pork was served in chunks. Ive definitely had more authentic tacos. Not bad, but ok. My dining companions loved their combination meals consisting of burritos, tamales, enchiladas, rice and beans. The portions are large, everyone brought home some for later. Bottom line, Not bad, but more i like a more traditional offering read more

This place is cute and clean. I really enjoy their soups a lot. Great food and great service. Always kind to me. What more could you want?

Got charged $18 for a breakfast burrito that they didn't even put any meat in save two or three tiniest of bits of bacon. They should be ashamed for putting such sub par inadequate food and asking a obscene amount of money for it. read more

Ok ok so one of my favorite things to order at a Mexican restaurant are sopes they're these little small fried masa bowls topped with beans your choice of meat, lettuce, pico de gallo, sour cream, and cheese. Here at El Rio Bravo I have found my favorite ones! Their sope is not so thick so it gets a beautiful little crunch on the exterior they don't over do it with the beans and the meat has so much flavor. I ordered the appetizer which comes with 3 sopes 2 carnitas and 1 carne asada. The spot is very hidden and it has a very small parking lot for 2 cars and 1 handicap spot I believe there is street parking. This hidden little spot when entering your greeted by the host which has incredible customer service. The inside is nice nothing extravagant I really enjoy that the lights are fairly dim and they have big windows which depend a lot on natural lighting. I have yet to try more of the menu but with my experience yesterday I can say that this place gets a 10/10 for me just because the sopes were amazing. I would say give it a try! Enjoy a sope! Get some drinks! Definitely worth it. read more

Absolutely fantastic! Fresh, homemade ingredients made with love! I got the crispy tacos and they were fantastic.

Very delicious and quality authentic Mexican cuisine! I'm so glad I found them on Grubhub, and will never go back to the other sub-par Mexican fast food options out there. I'm very happy with ordering the guac dip, and getting a main dish. Chips are fresh! I haven't been to the restaurant but happy to get delivery from here! read more

My family and I love this place! The service is quick and our food comes out within 10 minutes every time. There's usually a sports game on and very light music, so it's a very mellow atmosphere. The food is delicious! It's reasonably priced and the portions are pretty big! I will always recommend this place whenever someone asks. There are only a couple of parking spots in the restaurant's lot, but lots of street parking. read more

Only ordered delivery, but it's always bomb. Best Mexican my husband and I have had since moving from the east side. The chicken flautas, carne asada, and tostada salad are favorites, but so far, doesn't seem like you can go wrong with anything on the menu. We've ordered delivery many times, and it's SO consistently delicious and not overly heavy. read more

It's a little hole in the wall with good food. I wouldn't drive out of my way to go there but would go back if it was close by. The service was ok. Took awhile for the waitress to get to our table, and again a delay to order the food. But after that it all went fine. read more

Great neighborhood eatery! Tonight I strayed from my favorite carnitas and ordered shrimp fajitas. My friend ordered a healthy chicken taco salad. Portions were generous and both dishes were delicious. Looking forward to returning soon. read more

I've been debating whether or not to post this because despite my being a regular customer, this place clearly doesn't give a shit about even trying to maintain decent customer service, and all I've done is pick up. So much for that. I've been ordering the same dish for a while now and when I popped in to pick up an order one afternoon last week, there was no one at the counter so I rang the bell. This girl walks in from the back and asks if I'm picking up and I'm like yeah. I can see my food on the counter. I see her then turn to someone in the kitchen and say something in Spanish as she rolls her eyes and I suddenly realize that she's probably talking about me. How professional of her to treat a regular like that. When she handed over the food, she may as well have thrown it at me because she was so bitter, lol. When I ordered the same dish two weeks ago, they missed the sauce on one of the three enchiladas dishes. I even tipped for that pickup order only to get an incomplete order. I didn't bring this up because it was said and done with but honestly, it's hard to glaze over and try to be sympathetic when this place has a general attitude problem. I don't mind the food mistakes but the attitude is enough to taint everything, which is a silly mistake to make with your customers. Guess I'm not the only one because if you filter reviews by newest first, you'll see mention of crappy customer service. In light of that, the food really is mediocre and they do nothing to keep the crispy tacos from being mush within 10-15 mins in the container. I'm done with you, Rio Bravo. I really talked you up but you turned out to be a sad disappointment. read more
