    A pile of fat from my chimi

    First off, I ordered a shredded beef chimichanga and they gave me a Carnegie asada to me. Chonga and I didn't want to start no dramas, so I took it, but that's why I don't order Carnegie asada. It's disgusting it had tons of fat in that fat that you see in the picture just came from my half of the chimichanga because I shared that with my Husband Riva's Mexican grill needs to cut the fat.

    Pozole Soup
    Lei G.

    We ordered via delivery service. We had the posole, steak fries, and pastor wet burrito. Our son raved about the posole he ordered and loved from Rivas #11 near Harry Reid Airport and was expecting the same flavor and heat from location #2. Unfortunately, the #2 location did not deliver the same quality as #15. The broth was not spicy, I tasted the posole and it was basically flavored water. There was no spicy option. No taste of chile, oregano, garlic, salt and pepper to taste. He was disappointed and so was I. I've had and can make authentic Mexican posole. I understand this is fast food takeout Mexican, but we will be ordering from store #15 from now on. However, the food was well packed, utensils and napkins included. The steak in the fries and the pastor wet burrito was well served and on point. My family and I appreciate the hard work, prep, and cooking efforts put into to satisfy the food craving we wanted for our family meal, including the posole. We spiced it up ourselves. Cheers.

    Heating up the cold menudo
    Blanca V.

    I order uber eats today from this restaurant my menudo was cold, no taste. It came with tortillas and bolillo , onions and oregano with crush peppers. I always get my menudo from Ely's but someone recommended this place. Not too much of a fan first impressions count. Packing was great, good quantity, but cold and not flavorful. I don't live that far for it to be cold, will all the packing they did.

    Steak fries
    Elisa H.

    I have been to this place twice. First time, I ordered the Shrimp fries, with everything on it. Second time, it was the Steak fries, and again, with EVERYTHING. Having recently moved to Henderson area from LA, which has a never-ending list of great Mexican food, this place was not far in comparison. Fries are thin cuts, my preferred way. Shrimp and steak were cooked to order and very fresh. Flavors mixed with beans, guac, pico de Gallo, was all to perfection.

    Rivas Burrito
    Tayvia E.

    Food is amazing I mean truly amazing seasoned to perfection But as of the late the service is horrible. This is my now 5th time standing in someone face to order saying it over and over and still getting my order wrong. Today my family spent 62.00 on Taquitos, a burritos, sopes, a quesadilla and Carne asada fries So I told Karina on my fries no beans no pico And on my burrito no guacamole no pico just rice cilantro and onions For my rolled tacos beef We get home fries have beans, burrito has no rice and has pico, and Taquitos are chicken. Mind u I have repeated myself 4 times when ordering Then I call she says I can replace the food. Ok Ty I call back to check do I bring the incorrect order back as well she says no but ask me the complete order again I repeat myself again 6th time. I also provide her my phone number because yes while I want this replaced I want you guys to realize what your doing as your food is costing as much as Texas Roadhouse. So I get my food sit down ready to eat again no rice, and I have guacamole on the burrito!!! Is this a hard thing to do add rice. Are we making my food according to what you want me to have or what? Am I allergic? Yes did you know that yes because I told you twice and my daughter also told you. What is the problem!!! The food again is great but I don't know if I can deal with the service anymore. They have had to replace my food over 5 times in 2 months. And yes I keep going back expecting a change but nothing is happening. Waiting for a response from the owner. I gave Karina my number at 1:40 pm on Saturday Feb 18th

    Steak tacos
    Mina R.

    Came in around 9pm and this place had a few customers already inside waiting for their food. There was nobody in line to order so that was fairly quick. The cashier was super friendly and always had a smile on her face. ( Thats rare in restaurants these days ) I ordered 2 steak tacos for my meal. These tacos are actually big compared to other places I've been too. Which is why i ordered 2. Lol. But kid you not. I finished it with no problem :0 The tacos were very good and fresh. I love the hot sauces. The flavors are on point. I definitely recommend this place to everyone. Friendly service and good food are hard to come by. Y'all know what I mean !

    Chicken tacos

    Food was great, cashier bubbly. Prices fair. About $25 for 2 tacos & a steak burrito; however, the cashier would not supply cups for water. That's no bueno. Especially after we added a 15% tip on the pad for the cashier. Take care of your customers & we will do the same to support local businesses. My partner ordered from there frequently on delivery and carne asada fries were A+.

    Great menudo must ask for hominy, they make it your way!
    Bev S.

    Sis & I wanted menudo, we came here the closest to us. The staff was so accommodating, kind & professional, they will add hominy if you request it! The place is clean & the food we ordered was on point so delicious! We will be back!

    Is there any entree that is gluten free here? Does this restaurant use a shared fryer for things like flour tortilla taquitos that would cross contaminate gluten free corn tortilla chips? I have Celiac disease and have to eat gluten free.

They have 2 tablets for you to order on, we got a mango slushie which was so fresh, you can taste the real mangos in it, very ripe. We also got the strawberry match boba which was good. We're strawberry people so next time we'll definitely order extra strawberry. We also got their orange chicken, spam musabi's, gyoza's and spring rolls. Everything was very fresh, made to order so expect to wait a bit, but was worth it. We made the drive to Henderson were their located from the northwest. If we're in the area we will definitely stop. They also have a drive thru which we thought was the coolest thing. They have manga's you can read while waiting and games you can play. They have anime themed vending machines, however most of them were empty. There was a SIM racing unit there but was plugged in. Hopefully, it'll be working next time and the vending machines filled. Overall great place, very friendly staff!

Girl with raccoon hair and piercing took our order and we saw her made our drinks with whole milk when I requested for almond. It's fine I'll just take a lactaid lol. But when she gave the other taro drink, we asked her as she handed it to us that it was supposed to be a large. She said oh it said Medium on the screen. We looked at my Apple Pay and thought it was too much for two medium drinks and drove back to get a receipt. We DID order a large, she just got lazy and didn't want to remake our drink.

    I finally thought I'd give the new burger spot in Henderson a fair shake…read more Ruby's Shake Shop is a more casual take on the Ruby's Diner chain from SoCal. This location opened just outside of Green Valley Ranch just last year, and I decided to invite my friend over here instead of our usual late evening burger stop. I tried the Classic Burger ($9.99). It was pretty solid, with a decent thick patty, hefty bun, some lettuce and tomato, and a burger sauce. It wasn't that exciting compared to some of the other popular burger chains though, and it was giving lots of California vibes in the sense that there wasn't a lot of fattiness. I did get it with a combo (+$4.99) though. The onion rings were crispy and mostly were bite-through-able, and they went alright with the ranch. I do think a 1:2 or 1:3 ketchup:ranch mixture might be the play, but I didn't investigate thoroughly yet. I also tried my friend's fries, which were okay but not that memorable either. My rating was really not gonna be awesome except for my drink (also included in the aforementioned combo). It was my take on an Arnold Palmer, a roughly 1:1 mix of their unsweetened tea and their lemonade. I later found out that the tea is a passion fruit tea, which is why I was getting fruity/tropical vibes that aren't usually part of this tea. And the sweetness ended up so addictively ideal that I could hardly stop drinking the thing. I will be back to Ruby's when I really crave that Arnold Palmer, and hopefully I'll figure out what to do to find a better entree on their menu. Maybe my friend's chili cheese dog could be a good starting point.
