I was really surprised by this Mexican Restaurant in Upland. From the vibrant interior to their tasty menu. I recommend getting the torta Chingona which was stuffed! Their margaritas were refreshing and appetizer platter was loaded. Definitely would come back to try more menu items. Plus: Parking was easy and staff were friendly. read more

We were so excited to see this restaurant pop up on in-kind. The restaurant itself is beautiful. Stunning paintings and really nice decor. Unfortunately that's about where any of the positives end. Service was absolutely horrendous. It was a solid five minutes before we were even acknowledged. She took our order, I asked for chips and salsa. She said she would bring them, and then never came back. We flagged down another server and she brought them for us. Our food was delivered about two minutes later And again, no one ever came back. We had to flag down another server for boxes and our check. The food wasn't terrible, but I wouldn't say it was good, either. More just edible. The extreme amount of MSG made it extremely offputting and left a bad aftertaste in my mouth. We really wanted to love this place since it's only about seven minutes from our house... But unfortunately, we will not be back. read more

22 years in business and still going strong! We came to try the new menu item and were impressed across the board. The birria flautas were crispy and packed with flavor, and the Torta Chingona layered with carne asada and chile relleno was hearty and delicious. The camarones a la diabla had a great spicy kick, and the mojarra frita was perfectly crispy. Even the pancakes were fluffy and satisfying! Don't skip the drinks the giant mimosa is no joke, the margarita flight is fun to share, and the Un Día Sin Ti margarita was smooth and refreshing. Great portions, bold flavors, and friendly service. Worth the visit! read more

I can understand why this was the best torta in town! It was messy, but delicious! So big, filled with meat, chile relleno, lettuce, and tomatoes! Definitely very filling! The guava agua frescas was sweet but also refreshing. I wanted to try the birria tamale but they didn't have it. read more

The décor is super lively, and the artwork on the walls gives it such a cool, modern vibe -- perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner! Now let's talk food because... WOW. Birria Tamales - These went viral last year and I get the hype! They were incredibly flavorful, moist, and a definite must-try. 10/10 recommend! Torta - I tried their torta loaded with Carne Asada, melted cheese, Chile Relleno, and all the works. This thing was HUGE, delicious, and super filling. A total comfort food moment. Chilaquiles - So good! You can get them red or green and both hit the spot. The beans and rice were also tasty and balanced the plate perfectly. Drinks - If you're into alcoholic drinks, the margarita flight is a must! You get a variety of flavors so you can sip a little bit of everything. Loved the variety! For non-alcoholic options, the guava drink was super refreshing, and the horchata was creamy and delicious. Overall, Pueblita is such a wholesome, delicious spot for Mexican food in Upland.

The service!! Came in and was told to wait a few minutes to be seated, 15 to 20 minutes later was still waiting. Meanwhile it looked like other customers got tired of waiting and left. Other customers too were waiting for chips and drinks still did not get while we were there. The waitress/hostess made a drink for other customers and it must have not made right because they sent it back, so she was starting to remake it again and I finally had it and spoke out and asked her if she was planning on seating us and and she replied I told you it would be a few minutes. I said yes but a few minutes is 3-5 minutes not 20 minutes so we walked out. This not the first time she gave us bad service. read more

A true hidden gem! Have been here twice and the service is as impeccable as the food. Can't say enough about their amazing Mezcal drinks!

Found this place online as we were looking specifically for menudo. Not all restaurants serve it on days other than Saturdays or Sundays. We'll this was the day after Christmas on Friday and sure enough the other 3 places I called did not serve it today...until I call Pueblita. When the hostess told me they had it, we jumped in the car and got there quick. We each ordered a bowl of menudo which came with coice of corn or flour tortillas, onions, cilantro, oregano, and lemons on the side. The menudo was hot and flavorful. The portion was generous at a very reasonable price of about $14.00. We noticed many other menu items that were also reasonably priced. We'll definitely return next time we're in town. read more

I've come in before and sat down to eat. But this time I did a to-go. Ordered a carne asada burrito. Added fries. But no fries were added and it just didn't taste like when you come in and sit down. The asada was not tasty. Lots of fat. It was a disappointing visit nonetheless. read more

The service was great. Our server was very attentive and checked in frequently, the restaurant has a cool vibe, cool decorations It was definitely worth checking out for a taco Tuesday. The food was pretty good for the most part two. The drinks on the other hand were not very good at all. They were too sugary too sweet. It tasted like nothing but syrup with a small hint of alcohol. The purple martini tasted like grape cough syrup. The margarita tasted like nothing but premade sugar syrups so those were quite disappointing. But other than that, the food service was good. read more

Came in on a Sunday morning. Everyone is friendly, food is good and their establishment is clean. I had a chile relleno burrito, my brother had a ham and egg torta and dad had the enchilada platter. We all liked our food. Only reason why I gave it a 4/5 is because there's a credit card surcharge percentage charged to the total of the bill and I've never seen that, also the service is slow. Had to waive down my server for a to go container and the check. We also waited more than 10 min to get our order taken. I'd come back however. read more

Let me start by saying that I'm always looking for Mexican breakfast spots around the city of Ontario where I live. Now I work in Montclair so I tried this place at the suggestions of yelpers. This place is somewhat big compared to other Mexican restaurants, but when I walked in, it wasn't that packed. The staff was friendly and took my order right away. That's where it ends. The food was just OK. I ordered Chilaquiles with scrambled eggs and I asked for them to add ham to my scrambled eggs. 10 minutes later the waiter comes back and tells me that the kitchen cannot do that. Again, I'm always looking for good Mexican breakfast spots, and I've always been accommodated as to how I want my eggs with ham added it to them. That really bothered me because again I'm paying for my food. I'm not asking for it for free. So to end my review I'll say that the Chilaquiles were just OK and I've seen more egg on chicken fried rice. Very disappointed one last point I asked for an agua de Jamaica.. well if that wasn't the smallest cup EVER!!! very disappointed, would not be coming back. I do not recommend. read more

Literally a gem hidden away in an unassuming business park filled with insurance and accounting offices, this small place packs in some big flavors. The service is friendly and attentive, and the dining room is spacious, clean and festive. It would be a great place to have a margarita for Cinco de Mayo or a hearty Mexican breakfast on a weekend. The latter is exactly what I like to do here. Just slide in on a Saturday or Sunday for some chilaquiles, menudo or taquitos. Bomba! read more

Pueblita Mexican Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Upland, California

Came here for the first time and they were opened on the holiday (Labor Day). Seating was quick and they had $5 margaritas. Every Monday is $5 margs! Also, the chilaquiles we ordered were amazing and flavorful. I would definitely come back for the food. On the other hand, the service wasn't the best as the waiter would take off and forget us for a while. We were given the check and it took almost 20 mins for him to come back and charge for the card. But if you love food I'd definitely recommend for the flavor. Yummm! :) read more

Returned to enjoy the flavorful green shrimp enchiladas with a side of rice and beans. Chips and salsa are fresh and so good they're addicting. I got a trendy drink on the menu "La Patrona" was perfectly and refreshing. I managed to eat everything because it was so delicious. Great ambiance, and service. What more could you ask for? Will be coming back for another drink.. for sure!! read more

Alberto is an excellent bartender. He is very attentive and friendly and provides quick service. I am always happy to sit at the bar and enjoy a cocktail and have a seat and enjoy their delicious food as well. The drinks and food here are exceptional. I recommend 100%.

First time there. It was highly recommended. We were on our way to mi ranchito...unfortunately it appears it may be out of business....we seriously loved that place but haven't gone in some time. So we tried this place in a weird location on benson south of foothill on the west side of the street, in a business strip area. Weird review....ok, we liked the vibe, and the staff was SO friendly...BUT the service was HORRIBLE....food was sub par. I hope they read this review. I'm routing for you, and you're all super sweet, but there is nothing that will bring us back. I believe the chips are packaged. Salsa was good. Food ok. read more

Had the chicken fajitas... what a surprise, a couple small portion of chicken and what was more surprising is that it had no bell peppers at all. Instead it was just carrots and celery . I don't think the cook there knows what Mexican food really is. The margaritas were extremely over priced. Who makes a margarita in the small cocktail glass that was mainly ice!! We won't be going back!!! read more

OMG, how have we not heard of this place before From the outside, it's not appealing due to the construction. But even without the construction, I feel it's not a good location even though it's on a busy street (Benson). My wife found this restaurant online and she liked the menu, so we thought we'd try it out with our friends. We walked into a busy but not crowded restaurant. The waitress sat us almost immediately. They didn't have regular booths like we like when we go with a group, but they seated us at a table that had regular chairs on one side and padded bench seats along the wall. The food was great and the margaritas were even better! This restaurant is truly a place worth visiting!. The staff couldn't have been nicer! I would highly recommend this restaurant for your Mexican fix! read more

I went from far away to celebrate my birthday to this place and try it with my partner and I didn't like it, the customer service was very bad, we arrived and they served us almost 20 minutes later or more and I thought maybe they are super busy, but they hardly had any people and those who arrived after us were served quickly. We ordered guacamole with chicharrón and the avocado was already pass and very bad, my husband ordered 7 mares broth and it turns out that apart from not liking it, it had like 10 clams, many with nothing inside and no shrimp or octopus, the truth is we left with a bad taste in our mouths, I don't feel like I will give this place another chance, the place was nice they have it Mexican style I like it, just that read more

Pueblita Mexican Restaurant - I like it but the ranch was sweet and the guacamole wasn't good same reason pass avocado - Mexican Near Me - Upland, California

Also had a michilada and the mix is perfect so refreshing. I will definitely be back this might just be my new favorite Mexican restaurant in the area! read more

Pueblita Mexican Restaurant - Chorizo con huevo chilaquiles verdes with Carnitas on top - Mexican Near Me - Upland, California

Came here on Friday afternoon and it wasn't busy at all. Had to wait 10 mins for a party of 5 to get a table. There was empty tables all around but they wanted to clean a certain table for us to sit down. Got seated and it took a while for them to get our drink orders. Which we just got water and a lemonade. The service wasn't the best but it was still pretty decent. They served chips and salsa but I don't think one bowl was enough for my party. The restaurants interior was pretty nice. Very homey and a lot of art work. They also have a changing table in the restroom which was nice. They finally got our order and i know the food was made fresh but it took almost an hr just to get our food. I don't mind it being fresh but we had kids with us and they were so hungry. The food was pretty decent. No complaints. Pretty simple. read more

All of our orders were messed up, it took forever to get drinks and chips and salsa, we had a server, then he disappeared, we had to ask him multiple times for our drinks, and there was a random charge on our bill that we did get them to take off, however they were very weird when we asked about it. Food was not very good and it was cold. Service was horrible and it was pricey for what it is, really disappointing. read more

Exceptional food!! Great service and a very nice and clean atmosphere. Will definitely be back, especially for their enchiladas!

Holy Crap!! This place is so good!! I can't stop eating the beans. You hardly ever find a place with good rice and beans... this place has them. I got the 3 item combo... tamale, chicharron taco and carnitas sope... all excellent. The guacamole was amazing... the queso fundido was so yummy... everything here rocks!!! Rudy and Bianca are amazing along with the entire staff... on point. The entertainment... singer ... fantastic. We will definitely be back!! Worth the 40 minute drive... totally worth it!! read more

don't waste your time or money, food was bland for an authentic Mexican food rest. service was kinda slow due to waitress chit chatting with the cook rather than asking why my glass of tea was empty for about 30 mins. then came the bill that not surprising the waitress had to go get change at another store for the 3rd time.other custermers had to experience the same.when she gave me my change she couldn't give me change for a 20 so I got stiffed leaving her a 20$ tip. read more

I was hoping to try this place again for their mole. I dined here approximately two years ago, I'll assume they changed their menu because there was no mole in the menu. I ordered the carne asada plate with scrambled eggs and it was pretty basic in flavor and presentation. The service is okay, the young lady that greeted us was kind and polite. The waiter that was there, gave off a sarcastic attitude. The ambiance gives off a -trying too hard to be a modern Mexican look. The music is loud like the new modern Mexican restaurants. I enjoy traditional Mexican restaurants with music that is at a tolerable level. The bathroom had a very unpleasant stench. read more

Great food the customer service is a little slow and they want you to enjoy yourself there. The music was outstanding. The drinks were top-notch. I highly recommend El jefe.
