Eric L.

Food: El Tri was really good, I decided to have them add pulpo to the mix. I didn't have to add any chili or lime they combination was really really good. La JAIBA was also really tasty and lemony I would highly recommend. The only one I didn't care for was the sushimi, maybe it's just not for me I didn't realize it was tuna. I thought it was salmon sushimi but that's my fault. I didn't really like the sweet sauce they put on top of it. Tasted like chamoy and fish. Not a fan but I could see why other would like it. Service: I can't complain about the service the lady that helped us was really nice and helpful. I had everything I needed. Thanks Ambiance: I like the place it's really bright inside the have tvs for the games that you can see from any seat. Clean bathroom and feels really comfortable. I will be back.

Raquel gave us amazing customer service! She was very attentive, friendly, and made our experience even better. The food at La Cruda Mariscos was delicious everything was fresh and flavorful. We actually drove all the way from Montebello to Riverside just to try this place, and it was 100% worth it. Definitely coming back! Ambiance was good love the music .

Great food and service from Jocelyn! Stopped by for their happy hour and the amount we got for the ceviche was

For years we have frequented the Mexican bakery, Yvettes, next door, but this divey little place completely slipped under our radar. We finally came, thanks to a recommendation from an acquaintance. First of all, the menu is quite limited. You will only find seafood here, shrimp, fish, oysters, scallops, octopus. It specializes in variations of ceviches, cocktails, alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks, and lots of cerveza. It is obviously a hangout for locals who had gathered at the large bar counter this particular day. But they also have seating at tables and booths for the non-barstool types among us. Loud mariachi music blared from the speakers overhead, and a small set of shelves was stocked with nibblers to buy and t-shirts donning their adorable logo, a cartoon of a very soused red shrimp holding a green bottle of cerveza in hand. It's a happy, friendly place. We came because we were craving shrimp cocktails. They offered two sizes, 20 oz and 32 oz.. and Mr B decided to order one of each size. That's a helluva lot of shrimp, but he didn't think so. Out came two cocktail glasses filled to the brim with medium sized shrimp. I loved the big chunks of avocado and all of the chopped celery, tomato, onion, cilantro, all thrown together in lime juice and a touch of catsup. Very juicy! My only complaint was the shrimp were not deveined, and most likely farmed shrimp, but overall, the shrimp cocktails were delicious. It was without a doubt way too much to eat, even the smaller size. So home it came for another two, very filling servings. A price point that is hard to beat and pretty darn great for a low-carb meal or two.

Hole in the wall!! Fresh oysters, fresh ceviche, excellent service. Happy Hour is next level... - BOGO draft or Michelada - Half off the freshly shucked oysters, the ceviche and quacamole Perfect for a date night as these items are shareable!!

Been hearing good things about this place. We got there at 10:00a.m. , right when they opened. We were immediately greeted and ordered our food and drinks. Everything looked good, looked fresh and was good , up until I got to the long hair in my ceviche. The waitress was understanding and asked if we wanted 1/2 an order to go. We said yes. When we got home, it was mainly all veggies and no shrimp. Wasn't happy about that, I should've requested a refund instead.

Great place! The service was amazing. The young ladies were attentive and helpful. It wasn't very busy when we were there but they kept busy. Keeping the place clean and tidy. Hard working women. The food was great. Really generous portions. Great flavor. We had the Agua de limo y pepino. Super yummy. We'll definitely be back when in the area.

Starting January 1, 2023 they only accept cash. They have an ATM on site if you find that convenient. The menu consists of a variety of ceviche and cocktails. They have a couple of taco options but today when we stopped in, tacos were not available. We decided to pay for our drinks and find another place to go. If you are craving ceviche or a cocktail this might be the place for you .... but bring cash! Kind of a disappointment. read more

Been looking for a place like this in Riverside for a while now. Everywhere I go has Americanized mariscos but this place had really great food. I ordered a campechana, ceviche, and a mixta. The campechana had a delicious flavor without even adding any condiments. The ceviche and mixta had good portions of shrimp and were prepared really well. The owner was friendly and we were so happy to support small businesses here in Riverside. We'll definitely be coming back here again. read more

And it would be nice to keep the customer restrooms clean, when I went last week there was no soap or napkins and the toilet look dirty...really important point of a restaurant.

I needed a ceviche fix so I decided to check out this place in Riverside close to home. This place met all my expectations and I can't wait to be back to try more of their menu items. The place is located in an odd shopping center right off the freeway, inside the space isn't very big so I assume on busy days you may have to wait for seating. The servers were both really sweet and helpful in explaining what their best sellers on the menu are. This restaurant only sells seafood nothing else so if you're bringing kids this probably isn't the best place as most kids won't eat much of the stuff on the menu. Overall, great experience great taste on the food and drinks! Also don't forget to check in when visiting you get 1 free taco I went with the Marlin taco and it was delicious. I've attached some pictures so you can eat through my eyes (: read more

I'm hesitant to give them 3 stars. But the food (crab legs, shrimp quality was great)…read more The inside of each booth is dark, dimly lit, and upon turning on my Phone light, I can see why. The walls are filthy. Mostly from all the spattering of food debris from people eating. The booth seating was a tad harsh, padding is near dead. The TV had foodball game playing. There was one server, she was nice and cordial and helpful with all my questions. I spent $39 and got the boil in a bag crab legs and shrimp with 3 taters and a corn cob. Overall the taste wasn't bad, they do need to back off on the Old Bay, there was a goopy mess of it.in the bottom of the bag. The shell crusher and meat scissors helped, but a pick would have sealed the deal for getting those little morsels of crab meat out of smaller spaces. Food: Good. Service: Great Business interior: needs a deep clean.

Star Crab

Solid 4.5 stars…read more Star Crab is hands down my wife's and my go-to spot for Cajun boiled seafood in Inland Empire. We've tried plenty of other places, and this one consistently gets it right. Service is always solid, the dine-in area is spacious and comfortable, and most importantly--the food is always on point. Their Cajun sauce is packed with flavor, not watered down or bland, and the seafood is cooked properly. Nothing is overcooked, rubbery, dry, or aggressively "fishy" (which is my biggest pet peeve at other boil spots). Service is solid, the dining area is spacious and clean, and the prices are fair for what you get. No gimmicks, no excuses, just consistently good food. Overall: good food, good service, good prices, and a clean restaurant. This is why we keep coming back while other Cajun places stay one-and-done. *Only reason for the 4.5-star instead of 5: PARKING. The parking lot is very limited, mainly because Star Crab and the Korean BBQ spot next door are both super busy. With two popular restaurants side by side, parking gets packed pretty much daily. Not a deal-breaker and totally worth it for the food, but something to be aware of before coming.

This is my favorite coffee shop in Riverside. I've gone here for over a decade and it's about time…read moreI write a review. Their coffee, tea, and baked goods are fantastic, but the main reason I love this place is because it's very cozy and the perfect place to read, study, catch up with a friend, or go on a date. They have a special, themed menu that changes every month. There is almost always seating available. They have a small book exchange, often sell local art, have cute merch, and just opened up a bakery right next door with extra seating. I'm kind of a snobbish third-wave coffee person and although this place isn't trying to be that way, it still is my favorite spot because of the overall vibe, how genuinely kind and down to earth the baristas are, and how comfortable it is. A lot of coffee shops are so brightly lit and trying to be hipster still in 2026, but this place is just kind of homey and the classic cozy coffee shop we all want to go to. So if you're a hardcore coffee connoisseur and are looking for the highest quality coffee, this might not be your spot. If you're looking for something with yummy drinks and baked goods with a chill environment you'll be very comfortable in, this is 100% your spot.

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.

If I could rate separately for service I would give it a 5…read more This place is not lacking any help in the waiter and waitress department. We have not been here since the 90's and I have to say, it was much better back then. All in all, there is just no flavor. The salsa tasted like watery tomatoes, our waitress gave us a little side of habanero salsa to incorporate with it but that heat is the extreme for me. We ordered the Mesquite chicken and steak fajitas which were less than average. Not sure if it was just a bad day, but the taste of the protein did not match up to the wonderful smell of BBQ outside the restaurant. The tortillas were just ok, first batch was not even warm. My Michelada was good though. Bummer visit after being away for so long. Looks like the interior could stand a makeover.

I had passed by this restaurant for a few months now, wondering if it was good or just another spot to get some seafood. I got off the exit and tried it out. I walked in and was greeted right away, which is always cool. Seating is open, you don't have to wait to be seated, which was also nice. I chose a booth and looked up the menu. My server Jocelyn was wonderful, she didn't take forever to get my order in, despite it being busy. Their sashimi looks delicious but I ordered the "Cevi Verde" which was refreshing and honestly really tasty. I got my food right away and ate in peace. Some servers at other restaurants are pushy or slow but mine was the perfect mix. The vibe feels chill, yet productive somehow. wether you're looking to eat some mouth watering food by yourself, friends, lover, colleagues, whom ever.. this is the place. Also, their michelada mix is on point and their selection of beers is too. read more

Absolutely amazing mariscos! The food was fresh, flavorful, and packed with authentic taste. You can tell they use quality ingredients and put real effort into every dish. The shrimp and ceviche were standouts--perfectly seasoned and full of flavor. The service was great too--friendly and fast, with a chill vibe that made the whole experience even better. Whether you're craving tacos, aguachile, or a seafood cocktail, this spot delivers. Definitely one of the best marisco spots around. I'll be coming back often! read more

My favorite waitress is Jocelyn,she always has a smile ,does small talk with us and always making sure we have what we need. She keeps us going back read more

I ordered a cocktel de Camaro y pulpo; food has no real flavor; they're just cooked. They'd have all the salsas and ketchup, so you fix it however you want it , but I would expect them to be halfway prepared, at least. Plus, I had to dig out almost 2 full spoons of purple onion. When I showed the waitress, she only said sorry. Place is clean, and there's no overwhelming loud music. read more

This location accepted a credit card payment for 114.09 from my stolen credit card on on 7/11/25 at 10:13 pm. It just shows that they do not request the proper identification promoting theft and making it easy for criminals to steal from others. Shame on them. This will not post unless a star rating was given, they deserve a thum dow. read more
