This is a popular place in the middle of downtown Gilbert. You can wait for a table or you can eat instantly at the bar as they do full service there. My crony and I sat instantly at a bar and enjoyed the casual environment. It's so casual that the workers are dressed like any of the patrons. They have taco Tuesdays. I learned firsthand what "deconstructed tacos" means by ordering The Bandit Taco Platter: it's all the ingredients on a plate and you assemble the tacos yourself. They put more ingredients than tortillas so there's a bunch of food to eat there. Overall, my experience was above average. read more

Caleigh WAS incredible! The best server you could possibly get! The food was great and the vibe in there was absolutely incredible!

Great experience at Joy Ride with fast and friendly service. Logan the manager checked in and was very nice

I love this little neighborhood gem. The atmosphere is so cute and kind of hippie. I tried the taco special of the day and it was ok. I normally stick to the shrimp taco and cucumber salads and they are honestly my favorite. Service was ok; I went on a Sunday afternoon and it wasn't busy but for some reason it still felt a little slow, I had a great service experience at another location so I was very surprised. read more

Amazing food and amazing service I really appreciate for her Isa amazing attentiveness and kindness.

Met a friend for lunch here during the week and we were seated right away. Love the big patio to enjoy the nice weather. Our server was great, brought chips and salsa and after we ordered, she asked if we have any allergies the kitchen should be aware which was thoughtful. The menu has lots of dishes that are gluten free (and clearly marked on the menu). The tacos were good, I enjoyed the crispy fish taco the most out of the 3. 5 starts for the service and atmosphere but dinged a star since the taco portions could be bigger/include more meat for the price. I'll be back to check out their happy hour menu in the future read more

The food was great. We didn't get our chips and salsa, but they were busy. Margaritas were smaller than they used to be but still tasty.

Love this place! Aubrey always takes such good care of us when we come in. She knows our drinks and everything. Cool atmosphere, AMAZING tacos and service! Our Gilbert go to. read more

Service: 5 out of 5 stars!!!!! My husband and I absolutely adore this place because of the service we receive when we come here! From the hostesses to servers to the bartenders to the management to the kitchen staff. They all go above and beyond to make this place feel like home for us. Aubri took care of us today and the fact that she remembers our order after so long is incredible! She helps make this place feel like a second home to us! Food: 5 out of 5 stars!!! The kitchen staff knows exactly what they are doing!!!!! There isn't a single dish on the menu that we don't love. Our new favorite thing to do is order the Taco of the Day without asking what it is. Do it the next time you're in and you won't be disappointed! Ambiance: 5 out of 5 stars!!!! The decor is incredible! The music playlists are all amazing! I just love the vibe here!!! read more

I was invited here & carpooled with my Yelp Bestie Marlene, & we met up with our other Yelp Bestie Ashley - they had a yelp event so I decided to join for my first meal of the day! I came with an appetite for sure. As we walked up i noticed they offered 2 patios with misters & Inside seating. The decor really captured my attention I loved the color scheme and furniture, super trendy. We were seated pretty quickly & shortly after a rush came in and they had to wait a while to be seated so we came just in time! Our server brought us chips & salsa she was highly attentive and other co workers checked in on us a lot which was a great thing. For starters I ordered the street corn (cotija, habanero aioli, cilantro, smoked paprika) I loved that it had a spicy kick to it, it's probably enough for 2 people to share at most so if you have a bigger party I would def order more. Marlene ordered the guacamole & the small size was smaller than we expected so we will def be ordering the large next time but it was so tasty. I wanted to try the ceviche (gulf shrimp, spicy pico gringo, lime, cucumber, cilantro, avocado, jicama, red onion) but I came in thinking the tacos were going to be huge from their photos on their website so I opted out. I will def be trying the ceviche next time though as it sounds so refreshing. For drinks I ordered a water & 2 margaritas. The first marg I tried was the Cucumber Serrano, as I love Spice and sounded refreshing which it was! The second marg I ordered was the Blood Orange & let me tell you right off the bat they both looked so juicy they were def not too sweet and some of the best margs I've had in quite a while. For my taco choices I picked the Carne Asada, Crispy Sprout & the rave taco which is the Chipotle Shrimp. All three were packed with flavor & very appealing but the serving size didn't match their IG or Website photos so I could have def ordered 3 more tacos at least to be full. I can't wait to come back though & try other menu items I had a great experience overall. I was going to order their fruity pebble churros but I noticed there were a few ice-cream/dessert spots around the area so I opted out, there's always next time! read more

I need an F- experience to make a bad review. Had that experience today. Server, non existent the whole hour, food C- at best. We wont be back read more

We came in for the Yelp event as my girl, Latoya B, is an elite member. We decided to sit at the bar since it was easy and available. Allan was our bar tender and server and dude was spot on. Very friendly and up-beat but not over the top. Since we planned on ordering more than the event offering, Allan made a few suggestions and that was cool because we struggled to decide. I got the fish tacos and a carnitas quesadilla while my girl got a carne asada taco and a fish taco (included with the offering) and she also got the shrooms. She got a Cucumber Serrano margarita (the virgin version) and Allen made me a strawberry lemonade. The lemonade was a little warm at first but delicious either way and once I stirred it good the ice started doing its job. Her margarita was kinda the same but I actually appreciated the little more beverage and little less ice. She wasn't totally sold on the taste of her drink but she still finished it. The fish tacos are very good and we got the crispy version. The asada taco was just as good. The roasted shrooms were very good and hey, how can you mess up a quesadilla? YOU CAN'T, but you can sure make it better with some carnitas mixed into the cheese! BTW, the chips and salsa were also good and I almost got full just on those. If you haven't done so and have a chance to check this place out, I highly recommend it and if possible, belly up to the bar and say hi to Allan and all the folks working the bar, they are all very nice. read more

We love this place! Every taco we've had has been amazing. The staff is so wonderful! We try to go for a date at least once a month here. The shrimp taco is my favorite for sure. read more

Really cool place in downtown Gilbert. Very trendy fun environment. Our server was super friendly and attentive. The decor was really nice and all the staff seemed fun and upbeat. The food was pretty good. Maybe a little more visually appealing than it tasted, however. But definitely not bad. My wife had a few of their tacos - the pork adobada, the standard, and the crispy fish. The positive was they were generous with the meat, but it was a bit salty. I had the green chili chicken burrito. It was pretty good. But also thought it was a bit salty, and couldn't taste the chorizo in it. We also the flinstone churro. That we were not a fan of. It was really dry and hard. Overall, pretty cool spot. Would definitely go back. read more

Food: It is Americanized Mexican food. The flavors are there, but it isn't authentic Mexican food. I have to admit the fried fish tacos are pretty bomb. The Chilaquiles had the flavor, but it was not drenched in sauce. Service: Our waiter was very helpful and even brought out surprise drinks for the birthday girl. We came in during happy hour from 4-6pm. Each taco was 2.50 and the fish taco was 3.5. And $6 margaritas during this happy hour. Ambiance: We waited about 20 minutes for a table. And we sat outside. The scenery is really pretty outside. Parking is hard to find since it's downtown. read more

Food. It was good. Service excellent. Atmosphere also excellent. Laid back and lively all at once.

We wanted a dinner out on a random Monday and came here because the reviews were good. We ordered a few tacos each and some margaritas. The taco of the day was delicious and the prickly pear margarita was one of the best I've had. The outdoor ambience was cute and cozy. Our server was new but they did a fairly decent job. We had a great time and plan to come back in the future. read more

Joyride Taco House... standup! Man what a great spot for food and drinks in DT Gilbert. We were running some errands that day and decided to stop in. It was Saturday around 1-2PM and we were able to get some draft beers for $6 in a pitcher and then started with the food. We got the queso dip with protein and chips... wow... this may have been my favorite item the entire lunch. We both ordered tacos (chicken, fish, carne) and everything was so fresh and portions were solid! We enjoyed the layout of the restaurant and the service was good during our time. Great spot to come by and checkout! read more

Queso rocks. Tacos rock. Killer drinks. Isabella is a fantastic server and my new best friend!

Not the worst meal I've had but everything tastes like it came out of a can or package straight to the plate.

this was my first time in and i was not disappointed at all! there was a little bit of a wait (not surprised after my experience) but we were offered drinks by the manager logan while we were waiting for a table which was so nice i've never seen that before, then our server david was amazing as well. David gave us food recommendations and he was spot on. the food was great and we were sat on the patio and it was so cute with the lights and plants i can't wait to come back! read more

The tacos were more like snack tacos than something substantial. The chicken on my taco was too salty. These are the size of about 4" tacos. They are tiny. read more

Good food, nice ambiance (super comfy chairs) and fast service. I really liked the chips. They tasted a little different from the ones you normally get at a Mexican restaurant, in a good way. The salsa and burrito were a little spicy for me but I'm pretty big baby with spicy stuff. Not the best Mexican food I've ever had but I liked it and it was reasonably priced. Even at 5 on Wednesday it was pretty busy! If they take reservations, I'd recommend making them if you're going on a weekend night. read more

Really not good. Tacos were cold and flavorless. Super busy and long wait. Not worth it

Food was delicious; our server David was awesome - super helpful and accommodating for a gluten allergy. The Baha fish taco, chipotle shrimp were fresh and delicious! read more

Joyride has changed a bit. They no longer have the amazing happy hour they used to offer as well as the staff seems unhappy. The food is predictable but, I did see some new things added to switch it up again. We tried the fries & cactus fries, we were not impressed with the dipping sauces or flavors. I am not sure if they have new management, but it for sure is not on my rotation of restaurant Choices these days. read more

This has to be one of the best experiences I have had in a long time.

FUN FUN FUn! Sit on their patio by the big fireplace! It is so wonderful. Allie G was an impressive waitress, knows her stuff and is as smart as her dragon tattoo. She was patient with our "first timers" syndrome. So we got the ceviche which was good. We got the guacamole which we liked. The shrimp quesadilla was like the best grilled cheese ever! Wonderful blend of cheeses and the sour cream dipping option was delicious. The carnitas taco is a thumbs up! The carne asada taco was good. They weee a true street taco so simple but flavorful. The drinks are a YES YES! The prickly pear margarita is my favorite hands down!! David came to check on us so we could close out our tab. It's a win win here!! read more
