We love Rodrigos. We have been coming here since they first open and have consistently had good service and great food. We always love the special promos that are offered for Taco Tuesday, national margarita day or their annual anniversary special. My coworkers and I frequent here for lunch because their $7 lunch specials can't be beat. We haven't been as often since COVID hit however we are sure to be back now that in-restaurant dining has returned. My husband I sat "inside" on the patio a few weeks ago and quite honestly, service was terrible. I don't fault them though because they are doing the best they can. They were crowded and likely understaffed. Food was still delicious. read more

My husband & I decided to try Rodrigo's and was very disappointed. We love Mexican food and this was the worst we've ever had. I usually Yelp but didn't. Now I wish I would have. My husband had the seafood chalupa salad and I had the Rodrigo's special. My husband's meal was aweful especially the shrimp, they were like rubber, totally overcooked! My flautas were not crunch and the meat was tough. It seemed like they were sitting for hours. The refried beans were dry and rice was not cooked. The horchata tasted like powdered drink. We will never visit again. If you want really good authentic Mexican food, this place is NOT the place to go for sure read more

We LOVE Rodrigo's! The servers are just wonderful. Always friendly, always smiling, they make you feel welcome. Their chips and salsa are fantastic. They offer super good deals for the lunch crowd. They give you plenty of food and it's really tasty. It must be good. We go about every 10 days, and so do our friends. read more

AMAZING food!!! Great service. Clean and relaxing restaurant. Definitely going back again!

I ordered the salmon de la casa. It was kinda bland and the salmon was not cooked through. I'd go back again to try the other food on their menu. read more

My wife and I ha e been coming to Rodrigo's for a years. Always have had good service and good food, our most recent visit will likely keep us away indefinitely, we visited last night and ordered our favorite dishes and of course got chips and salsa. My wife immediately found what looked like a piece of hair or fuz or who knows what in the salsa. This was actually the second time we found something like this, we were in a couple weeks ago and found the same thing, at the time we were finishing our meal and brought it to our servers attention, and he handled it properly. This time was a little different because it was the second time so in my mind there's something wrong that the restaurant knows about and there not correcting. When we brought it a servers attention he said oh it's just hair, and almost seemed upset that we were bringing it to his attention. The server then grabbed the chip with the hair laced salsa from my wife and knocked my wife's drink over. At that point neither one of us had any desire to stay and left. It's really too bad because Rodrigo's has been one of our favorite restaurants. Well never return. read more

Rodrigo's Mexican Grill - My Rodrigos girlfriend - Mexican Near Me - Temecula, California

We ate here on Mother's Day thinking that there would be a waitlist going but they seated us right away. The interior decor looked outdated and a little stuffy. There were not very much customers considering it was Mother's Day. Our waiter looked like he was waiting on wayyy too many tables. He was always on a mission every time I would try to get his attention, for sauce or our check or more water. It wasn't his fault though. He was perfectly polite and great. They probably were understaffed that day. We tipped him well though. For a dine-in Mexican place like this, I was expecting high quality Mexican food but it wasn't. Their chips and salsa was good but not great. I ordered their stuffed Pasilla Chile Relleno, it wasn't packed with flavor but it was juicy and had a good texture. I was quite surprised when I asked for hot sauce, was hoping they would give me a sauce they made from scratch but they gave me a bottle of tapatio instead -_- (very disappointing) Lastly, I asked to order their Nino soft taco plate to-go for my 4yr to eat later because he fell asleep in the restaurant and come to find out, they did not separate the tortilla in a foil wrap like how other Mexican restaurants do but instead they had the shredded beef in the soft taco making it VERY SOGGY when we arrived home. The taco was ruined, the tortilla fell apart and the shredded beef broke trough the tortilla when I picked it up. I wished I had a photo to share... we threw out the food unfortunately. read more

Excelente food excellent service and the ambience was really nice because everybody working there had a great attitude. I really recommend Rodrigo's. read more

Minor update. Still love this place, and Justin makes the best drinks in the entire southwestern riverside county. But I am not at all a fan of the computer doodads that hold my check hostage. Toast is the Devil! read more

We went here for Sunday brunch. The food is a bit institutional, but the fun and polite service is refreshing. Garrett was great! Mimosas are no longer "bottomless" but the staff is generous. read more

Wow couldn't believe the service this evening. There were only 2 tables with customers in the bar. We waited 15 minutes for a drink which we never got. While watching Justin the bar tender chat with his Friends who were at the bar. The waitresses kept apologizing. It was clear he was ignoring all of them and us. So rude!! Needless to say we walked out after we ordered our meals. Very frustrating. read more

Very plain Jane restaurant with over priced food. If you're going to charge $15 for a plate it should at least not sit under a heating lamp for 15 minutes. Won't return, this is what it is. read more

Really great food with HUGE portions! The salsa was awesome as well! Service was great and no problems with any part of my order being adjusted! read more

Can't never go wrong with my huevos rancheros, my wife had the Burrito Suprime. Top it up with nice hot cup of coffee and Caramel Flan.!!!

Food was fantastic. Best carne asada burrito I have had in a long time. Big on flavor! We will be back

The review before me, claiming Taco Bell is better, is correct. It's actually offensive how bad the food is here. Nothing appears to be made in house. Seems like it's all frozen. Average plate price is 18$. The Mexican rice was a disgrace. Shamefully bad food. If you hate flavor and love frozen food, I would check this place out. read more

My gf and I went to Rodrigo's and the service was great but the guacamole was brown, the chips were stale and the wings did not taste good.. it seemed like good ambiance for drinks but I wouldn't recommend having dinner here read more

How can this even be considered Mexican food? The beans taste canned, rice tastes old and lacks flavor, and overall food was just not good. The service was terrible despite the restaurant being empty it took so long to just grab us some hot sauce people had already finished their meal. The restaurant had a strange smell. Overall not a good experience read more

Rodrigo's deserve all the stars on here plus two thumbs up! They know customer service to a tee! Came here today for lunch with the family. Everyone here. Every. Single. Staff deserves a shout out. From the person who answered the phone, the hostess, the server, everyone was genuinely friendly. They were very sharp, on top of things, knows their game, hardworking and they communicate with each other really well. They have a great teamwork going. It shows with how they treat their customers. The food came out super fast. The portions are pretty huge and the food tasted fresh and delicious. I've had the most heartiest chicken tortilla soup ever. I have work tomorrow so I can't try their fab looking Margaritas - But I will be coming back on a weekend to try. The ambiance and mood was great and it was a pretty relaxed and casual athmosphere. We've had a really great dining experience today. My new favorite place! read more

First time eating at restaurant during COVID19. All staff in sight had masks on. They were seating customers at every other table. They are serving a Very limited menu, with High prices and small portions. They have inside dining and patio dining. They appeared to be running at half staff. read more

Over priced for simple Mexican food. But decent tasting food. Large space that is mostly empty from customers

The only good thing I can say was the staff is friendly however the service and food were terrible. Our waitress took our drink order then our food order and we never saw her again. The food took a very long time to come out and was incorrect when it did. The fajitas (which she said are the most popular item) were lacking in flavor, served with cold tortillas and the meat is something I wouldn't even feed my dog (I literally spit it out). The enchilada was not hot, the cheese tasted grainy and I only took two bites and the rice tasted like cardboard. We also saw other patrons getting frustrated while staff sat around chatting and when we ordered another beer we watched it sit at the bar for 20 minutes getting warm. Just all around bad. Honestly there are several more authentic Mexican restaurants in the area so this will be my first and last time trying Rodrigos. No wonder it was only a five minute wait on cinco de mayo lol. read more

Rodrigo's Mexican Grill has great food and drinks and we are thankful that their patio dining has been opened for some time now. Staff is helpful and friendly as always. Possible indoor dining coming in April 2021. Unfortunately, the County of Riverside has not been doing the correct SARS-Cov-2 (Covid19) PCR testing, which resulted in our numbers not dropping, according to the available approved tests by the state. Our declining numbers were not being counted. Now that Riverside County is doing more PCR testing, our declining numbers are now being recorded, allowing for indoor dining within a month. read more

This place is down the street for me and I wish it was better. I'd be there all the time. Unfortunately, this is the least Mexican Mexican food you'll have here in Temecula. I've given it several tries but it's always missing something. The food is bland but I do have to say that the servers are always kind and friendly. They also have to get rid of that stinky carpet please. read more

We're still fairly new to the area, but Rodrigo's was one of the first places we tried. Coming from San Diego, we needed some decent Mexican food. During Covid, this was one of our go-tos - whether it was just us or friends/family too. The staff has been friendly since our first visit here and the food has always been great (love the flautas!). But today, we had an even better experience. We were lucky enough to get seated in Leah's section. She was sweet, engaging with the kids, had everything we asked for within seconds and we can tell she's like this all the time. We understand how hard it is to get ANYONE to return to work following Covid, let alone someone as great as she. Keep her, Rodrigo and give her a damn raise! She's awesome. Yelpers- ask to be seated in her section. You'll guarantee a great meal. read more

The food was ok but the waitress was terrible. She had the worst attitude and was very unfriendly. The place was very busy and the food was soso. read more

Service is poor and there internet declines your card when you have plenty of money on it. I'm handicapped and only had $20 cash had to go to an atm to get more $ to pay them cause there internet was down and I was treated like a criminal. I paid them and will never go back there ever again! The service is poor and they don't care! Don't go there food sucks! read more

We came here to meet friends who picked this restaurant due to the proximity to their home. I checked the Yelp reviews and we should've walked out. But we gave them the benefit of the doubt. Food was bland as described in other posts. We ordered fajitas with shrimp, chicken and steak. We did not eat the steak after a small taste test. It was not good. Service and ambiance was good, but did not make up for the lack of flavor/quality in food. Even our friends who ordered carnitas thought their dishes lacked any flavor and were dry. Thankfully, the company we had and conversation was good. Best part was the free chips & salsa. read more

Place looks great but was a huge disappointment. Food was really bad. I ordered Shrimp tacos the Shrimp was not fresh with no flavor. My sons burrito was made not how he ordered it twice. Service wasn't horrible but wasn't good never got a refill on my drink. Was charged for a side of guacamole the we didn't order. Salsa was rough chips not fresh. I'm really surprised if anyone would go back to this place for a second time. Owners really need to get better quality food, cooks, and menus. read more

I really want to like this place. I will say this, it is clean and the staff is very kind and provides great service. Besides the chips and salsa, the food is just ok. Not great. Not bad. Just ok. read more
