Tacos Los Compadres

Horrible service, horrible carne asada fries… They got the most simple order completely wrong. Don’t think I would want to go back there ever again … And the vibes I was getting made me uncomfortable the reviews were off with this place. I thought I could trust you guys

My best friend, myself and even my mother all have ate here separately. Unfortunately I expected more after reading the reviews. My best friend lives in Los Angeles unfortunately she stated the food is not good. After she stated this I had to try it myself, food is bland. In other words «whatever».

Food is good and service is even better :) I had the taco plate. The other four I was with had the #5. My husband said his burrito was great.

Best Mexican food in the town the customer service is great, very professional and polite my personal favorite food was the torta w/​asada with no ham.

Centrally located taqueria just off Mission Blvd in Riverside. Currently going through a renovation or expansion inside the restaurant. It’ll be nice to see when it’s all done.
Variety of tacos, burritos and tortas. Ordered the Fish, Steak and Shrimp tacos. Fish tacos only come deep fried, wish they’d offer grilled as well. Both Shrimp and Steak tacos were good. Salsa bar is free and enjoyed the taste and flavors. Prices are reasonable, cashier was friendly, place was clean and food was prepared quickly.

I love the fish tacos and roasted chilies at this place and for a dollar on wed how can you go wrong.

I think this is the BEST taco place in the area. There salsa’s are amazing. The food is great! The pastor is personally my favorite but we have tried almost the whole menu and its all great. It is a little dirty but you can tell its because they have a constent flow of business. We do like to take it to go. :)

I went there today and had tacos, the asada meat was gross, like it was sitting there. The pastor was really good, the carnitas were good and so we’re the taquitos. The atmosphere not good, there was lady sitting next to us and she changed her 1 year olds diaper right there, that’s ghetto and disgusting, I don’t care if the baby would have been newborn you go to the restroom and do that. I won’t go back.

I had been loses my appetite a few weeks, since I found this place, it becomes my favorite. Every time, I only order beef sope which is the best!!!

I was here on Cinco de Mayo and they gave me a carne asada burrito with dried up, fried and hard meat. Everyone else was having seafood so maybe that’s the route to take. My burrito was gross. Bad neighborhood, sketchy parking lot area I’ll just pass compadre.

The carne asada was average It didnt taste seasoned. The fish tacos were horrible. That is what gets this place just 1 star, the fish tacos. They are nasty.

I always frequent this place when visiting clients in the area. Although there aren’t too many options to choose from when it comes to restaurants in the area, the food has always been consistently good. I especially enjoy the salsa bar, which includes one of the best green salsas I have ever had and it also offers grilled jalapenos, a must for me to complete my cravings for Mexican food. I always order the fish taco or burrito as well as the Ceviche Pescada, all three items are on sale periodically. They also have a daily special. The other meat tacos are average and I do not care for their tortas, especially since yellow cheese is used. The service is always welcoming and friendly. A coworker of mine ordered a side of guacamole, it was just a small squirt of mashed avocado with crema added, defintely meant to be included in a burrito, not as a side to dip your chips.

Always satisfied with the food and service :) i would definately recommend this place!

Kinda blew me away. I really fell in love with this taqueria. I walked in not knowing anything about this place, so I ordered a couple tacos that are my assessment of an unknown taqueria: al pastor and cabeza.
The al pastor is the best I’ve had in a long time, maybe ever (and I was in Mexico City last summer); it was bright with freshness and flavor. Quality. The cabeza was good too; big, juicy, tender pieces of slow cooked meat. Even the tortillas that the meat was on was unusually hot and soft.
There are only two types of salsa (verde, and habanero). Not that cool, but it’s alright cause the meat is so good. But what they lack in salsa choice they make up for with the grilled jalapeños, pickled carrots, and fresh radishes. I know you’re thinking «big deal, all taquerias have that stuff». True, but the pickled carrots with jalapeños were so fresh, crisp, and colorful. It was like they made it 10 minutes before I put it in my mouth. And the grilled jalapeños are not just simply grilled, they are also seasoned with some type of lemon garlic salt, and they were still warm. Plus, the jalapeños have just the right heat. sometimes jalapeños are too hot which distracts from enjoying the flavor of everything else, or sometimes they are too mild, which I might as well eat a bell pepper. These are just right. In fact, everything was just right.
This spot would get 5 stars if they served complimentary tortilla chips and if they had a couple more fresh salsas in the salsa bar. But even without those two elements, they are a solid 4 star taqueria.

This place knows my family by name now. We go in and get whatever the deal of that particular day is because there’s nothing that tastes less than great there. Kind of sketchy area to park but this is basically my neighborhood so it doesn’t bother me when I pass by to get to the boxing gym anyway. I recommend the tortas they don’t have my favorite Cuban style but you can’t beat the taste within at least a 10 mile radius. Definitely recommended.

i’m torn b/​c one time i went the fish tacos were fantastic but the second time, one was great and the second fish taco was not edible.
this place needs consistency. love the salsa bar too.
