Never disappoints! We drive far just to cure our cravings at least once a month. Always on point with the carne asada fries.

Went during lunch hours and it was busy! But they’re quick! You’ll get your food within 15 minutes. Their menu is posted on the wall inside and the taco menu were posted on the glass window area. No pricing was on the inside menu so I did not know how much each items were. I ordered 3 tacos! Which turned into 6 for me since I only use 1 of the tortilla each time. All the toppings dropped became the “2nd” taco of that meat choice. Their toppings: onion, guacamole, sour cream, cheese, and red/green sauce! You can ask for the sauce on the side like I did so it doesn’t get soggy. They have seatings around the building. Would recommend if you are craving tacos!

The food itself was pretty good, but I have to admit it was slightly greasier than what I wouldve liked. Not much you can say, considering this is a fast joint where food is made on the spot and that there is a lot of people ordering from them.One complaint I would have is not a clear pricing structure on food and I did feel like we got somewhat inflated pricing due to not knowing how things were priced. That or we werent informed what costed what and was just taken advantage of.I still would recommend this place even though we paid more than what we expected, because the portions were proportional and the taste was up to par.

I absolutely love this place. Prices have gone up recently but the food is still worth the price. Tacos are filling and food is delicious. Dont forget they only accept cash! I always order the tacos especial with red salsa.

The best tacos Ive ever had! They also make great burritos! Every time in the upper LA area I make sure to stop by here! Give it a try you will not regret it 🤘🏼

This place is mid. Burritos and tacos are solid but not great. Not sure why everyone raves about the meat quality - the asada is totally mid, and when we went, a little dry and over cooked (jerky anyone?). Better than ground beef, but not as good as expected.Al pastor was good but not great. Slightly better than avg but not better than most taco trucks.They’re also cash only… what’s up with that…? even taco trucks and stands accept cc or zelle now…

Havent been here in probably 20 years. This Local Hole-in-The-Wall Favorite has gotten a makeover since I was last here. Looks a lot better than when I was last here.Their Menu is pretty simple. All the usual Meats for Burritos & Tacos + Burgers and Fries. There are like various options to have your Burritos With Everything (The Special), Just Meat, All Meat and what not.I went with a Carne Asada Special Burrito and Orange Bang.My Burrito was HUGE and BOMB👌👌Friendly Staff.No Restrooms.Place is Clean.Plenty of Parking.Liquor Store behind.Seating on South Side of Restaurant along the Side Street.Keep in mind, this is a Grimey Area.CASH ONLY.

I cant believe I never went here back in the day when I did some work nearby. Its really good. The Asada tacos with the salsa verde was amazing. Worth the drive from Pasadena and cant wait to go back and try more things like the chile verde and the lengua (lots of people in line were ordering lengua, I heard lengua quesadilla ordered a lot).

Great place to go to for many years the combo tacos are fire 🔥. When ever you are in the area stop by for a taco or 2 you won’t regret it because you will be back.

Great guys working there, the people in line were very helpful and the carne asada burrito/carne asada tacos are the real deal. I will definately go back whenever Im on the 60 freeway.

I have been coming here since the 90’s and the food has never fallen in quality and taste.Being that I live in Palm Springs now it is difficult to visit but, when I’m passing through I make sure to get something to take home.

Update📢📢📢Dec 2022 I dont come here very often anymore but they are using rice in the burritos, this is somewhat recent. Today I asked for no rice pls, and got so so so much cabbage barely any cheese, and about 2 Tablespoons of carnitas and the rest beans. If you look carefully you might spot a piece of carnitas😂

I tried this place for the first time today. This little spot always has a line outside when I drive by, so I figured it would be good. As it turns out, I was absolutely right! I tried the carne asada fries to see how they stack up against the others. These guys are not playing around when it comes to toppings. Sometimes different places will skimp on cheese or meat-- not here! Check out the photo!! These fries are stacked and smothered. As I write this, I am dozing off into a sweet, satisfied food coma. I cant wait to go back to this restaurant and try some of their other menu items. If the carne asada fries are any indication, I am sure you cant go wrong with Taco Del Rio.

First time here and I have to say al pastor and cabeza are definitely their best meats. I would just avoid adding the shredded white cheese on your tacos....overall good spot.

Review №22

2017-04-10 23:30:57

The line goes pretty fast but they threw way too much cheese on my carne asada fries to the point where it was overwhelming and I couldnt taste anything else. Just look at the picture! That is not a normal amount of cheese.

Review №23

2023-01-12 06:16:33

I used to come here a lot when I lived in the area. The quality of the food has gone down but the customer service remains excellent. They could use one more cash register to make the line move faster when paying. Theres usually a longer line to pay than there is to order food so your food sits awhile while you wait to pay.

2022-04-29 17:07:24

If you are looking for traditional street tacos this is not the place. Meat is not cooked to order. I would say this place is “American” style food. Hot sauces have no heat or flavor. Food is expensive for quality. I went to this taco spot because of review rating. Totally misleading. Look else where if looking for taqueria.

Grew up on other side of town wasnt around here for other reasons, anyways 20 plus years later i said im gonna check it out. I stopped yesterday dont know what all the hype is its absolutely horrible. Even boca del rio is better!

I love the food here. They always give you so much meat and/or chicken.

Review №33

2022-02-27 19:40:12

I got the “Special Combo” Burrito, and while yes I got full, it didn’t really taste that good. Definitely “meh” and at $9.75 (burrito only, no drink!) I expected something amazing. I have no idea how these mundane restaurants stay afloat at these ridiculous prices. If the food was marginally good I’d understand, but honestly this burrito was mediocre at best. They also put 60/40 on beans vs. meat to make the burrito look big. This “special” version was supposed to have guacamole and sour cream, found that the sour cream pooled at the bottom end of the burrito, while the guacamole was literally non-existent! So disappointed. Don’t come here. Or at least skip the burritos, big time rip-off.

Been coming here for years.it has had some changes over the years but it still hasnt dissapointed me.Asada fries,burritos,cheeseburger special, are some of my favorites.On certain days and hours it does get super busy but what i do is call nd make an order to beat the line. Wich is Easy nd convinient. This is An Cash Only spot just a little heads up...it does have some outdoor tables to sit and eat there.Give it a try im sure youll be satisfied

2022-10-20 23:47:12

Only the outside of the building has changed but the food is exactly the same for the past 20 plus years, good stuff!! Still CASH ONLY so be aware. The guy at the register needs to be a little more friendly though and lose that cara de fuchi!! Estas feo cabron but dont be mad at the patrons...

2022-06-29 02:38:14

Lots of HATERS out there…but this place is hands down some of the best food I’ve had, always stop by on my way to my moms in Riverside, I live in Bakersfield and have been going here since I was 10 years old(now 43) always have the best carnitas with “NO” fat in it and shredded so beautifully. Special combo is the way to go!!!

The quantity of food is great. My burrito was a little cold but it wasnt too bad. Theyre very generous with their servings and have no problem giving you extra condiments on the side. I would definitely recommend Taco Del Rio for a quick lunch or dinner pick up.

Review №39

2021-10-17 13:30:03

Really love their Carne asada burrito its honestly one of the best ones. The flavor is just great. The only thing I dont like about here is that its just cash only. I think its time to change the payment method to this location. There is so many ways to take payment nowadays. I really dont understand why it hasnt changed. Theres been more times where I couldnt eat here due to not having physical cash.

2022-04-09 03:04:56

Been coming here since the late 80s..Never a disappointment.. all their food is satisfying. Burritos, tacos are delicious.. if your gonna order asada fries make sure they do the fries dorados ( crispy).. Hamburgers are very good.. menu hasnt changed much over the years.. surprised they dont have breakfast burritos or bacon for the burgers.. thats the only reason why I gave them 4 stars ..

Review №41

2021-10-18 03:16:20

Cash only. Ate here for breakfast. The beans were hot and fresh, the rice was soft and flavorful and their Salsa Verde was fire. Its well worth the stop if your staying at the hotel up top of the hill. Open late and early. A burrito, taco and med soda was $12.25.Everything had guac and cheese on it a super plus for me.

I drove by this place three days in a row and saw lines around the corner to get food. Last day that I was in the area I decided to try it out. It was definitely worth the wait in line! Great Mexican food.

I WOULD ALWAYS PASS BY THIS PLACE ON MY WAY HOME ALWAYS PACKED SO I FINALLY DECIDED TO TRY IT FOR MYSELF AND MY KIDS ORDER CARNITAS BURRITOS NOT THE BEST CARNITAS BURRITO IVE EVER HAD EVEN MY KIDS REALLY DIDNT CARE FOR IT

Review №48

2021-09-01 23:12:52

I had not been there in 3 years and I was looking forward to the Nachos con queso. But the no longer have it and they told me the never did. I know they had them so something changed my Carne Asada was as good as I remembered. Its a shame they dont have that Nachos and fries con queso. It was Awesomeness in a aluminum plate. 😒

2021-07-07 06:09:17

I don’t care if this place is considered “authentic” Mexican or not, their tacos r DELICIOUS! Their meats are seasoned to perfect and they arnt stingy with how much they give you. The tacos are piled with meat, cheese, guacamole, sour cream, onions, chili verde or rojo, cilantro, lemons and two tortillas! The prices are completely fair and though the lines are usually long, it goes quick. No matter what u order on their menu, you won’t be disappointed! So glad this place exists! 😋

Never a let down. Its very rare that you come here and theres no line. Great food, good prices, friendly employees! The Tacos Especial are a must try. The only downside is theyre cash only. A must try if you havent had food from here!

Review №55

2021-01-04 19:14:46

Not the same as it was a few months back. Burritos were smaller and less meat in them. Really surprised me. Plus the cost of beef is more expensive and they charge more for the Asada burrito. Wasnt worth it. Flavor was still good but quantity compared to before was below standard. Sadly dissapointed.

From Portland and needed a taco fix. They were great. Fresh. Carnita tacos were perfect. Counter people were very nice and quick to make my order. I will visit again before I leave the area.I read reviews that said the food was greasy. Im not sure what they ordered but mine was not and was excellent.

Review №57

2021-10-03 02:54:45

Ordered an Al Pastor burrito. The meat was flavorless and was filled with mostly rice and beans. The kind of quality Mexican food you get from Chipotle, not a real Mexican taco spot in Southern California. Youre better off getting food from a street vendor.

This is a little hole in the wall place with some of the most authentic yet simple mexican cuisine. They have a small variety of option but I promise you will not be disappointed with what they have to offer. The prices are really good because no matter what you order it is always stacked with ingredients and meat. Absolutely would recommend to anyone wanting to get a quick bite without sacrificing any taste !

Review №60

2017-08-29 14:29:46

Theyre cash only, but are worth every cent! The burritos are no joke, they are big and never skimp on the meat. Theres always a line, but the cooks keep the line moving. Awesome!

Review №61

2020-01-03 21:27:26

Its been here forever so it has to be good is what I told myself when I finally came to try it. Thank goodness. They have some of the best Mexican food in the area. Try the cabeza or lengua in a burrito or taco. Cant go wrong with it! Price is nice too.

I ordered a meat only burrito for $11 and received a huge tortilla with about 4 ounces of meat. So disappointed,plus meat was really chewy and dry. Do not recommend. Smh

I live closer to Boca Del Rio bite once I tried Taco Del Rio I never went back. I order a combo burrito with asada. With everything on it plus guacamole. Service is always quick and friendly and they treat me like family. Most importantly despite the size of the place it it kept clean and sanitary. I have never gotten sick eating there which I cant say the same for boca.

Review №64

2018-11-10 03:29:32

Best Tacos Especial this side of the Rio! Dont waste your time getting the plan regular plates of tacos that others serve. You must try the tacos all the way fully loaded as tacos especial...trust me.. soooo worth the double calories! Go big or go home people! I make it a point to drive out over 45 minutes from where I stay to eat here when in California.

Review №65

2015-03-06 01:09:52

Had the super combo burrito which comes with sour cream and guacamole...it was fabulous. Id never heard of this place. I decided to eat their because it had a line coming out the door (thats when you know a hole in the wall is good). Im glad I stopped. I will be eating their often.

This is a very popular cash only place. Lines are always long but thats a sign of good food and this neighborhood spot is well known for tasty Mexican food. Burritos, tacos come with a variety of meats. I am creature of habit and got three carne asada street tacos with everything and my daughter got a carne asada burrito. We met a super nice guy in line who recommended the burrito. I only removed one star because the line took a while. There appeared to be line jumpers..those who ordered and left then popped in at the pick up area to retrieve their food while we had to watch our food sit in line behind the window.

2020-07-10 23:50:51

Pretty good tacos and burritos. They have meat quesadillas they look good never had them and also they have super nachos look good never had them. Well worth it to taste there food. They have no chicken or fish here just beef, pork and younger and Al pastor and carnitas. 👍🌮

Tacos are decent, not anything special. They do give alot of fries. Parking isnt hard to find but its just ghetto sometimes. A big fight broke out last time I was there and doesnt seem like anyone cared nor did the business do anything..

I live across the st this is a bomb spot 💯the meat is good and juicy. But always remember to be specific how you want your order because sometimes they can add too much cheese or too much of something . Lines are always long on weekends . Your lucky if theres no line .

Heard about this spot many, many moons ago. Finally found time to have lunch with the girlfriend. Both of our 1st time here. And I cam honestly say now I understand what the lines into the parking lot mean. Yes we both got the tacos 🌮 😋 and yes they were filling and delicious. The presentation was great plate full of food the tortillas, meat (carne aside of course), cebolla (onions) & cilantro topped with cheese 🧀 😋 and their salsa verde/green sauce was all that 👌 😋 🔥. Lets just say that you better bring an appetite because they serve plenty. A must try and experience yourself as I have. As Schwarzenegger stated in The Terminator (quote) Ill be back (end quote) 👍🏽

Tacos Del Río. Youll like it. The sitting area not so much but the food is great!

Review №74

2020-01-09 22:27:39

I have been eating here since the 90s, the things that really set this taco place above all others is: their Asada/steak is seasoned to perfection, the absolute best, their red and green sauces are unique, and I have been to a lot of taco shops and never seen these available except here at Taco Del Rio in La Puente. The fact they make everything right in front of you, and take each and every order to the customers request as they like it... that is just as good as it gets... no wonder they keep a line here most of the time, it is that good! Also I have tried the sister place TACOS del Rio in Norco/Eastvale area and it is not even close... they have more of a roast beef Asada, and the sauces seem different, so make sure you visit the La Puente Taco del Rio if you want the best! I wish I could open another one just like it in Palm Springs area. The taco places in the desert are nowhere close to the great taste of Taco del Rio in La Puente!

THE BEST TACO PLACE IN L.A.Ive been eating here for nearly 20 years. Can you believe it? The same guys working here then are still there. The tacos are big, packed full of meat, cheese, onions, cilantro, cabbage and salsa. The burritos are the same. They offer asada, carnitas, barbacoa, tongue, and chicken. I usually either get the carnitas or asada. Asada is definitely the most popular, and it isnt fatty or greasy like some places. The carnitas is more hit-or-miss and Id ask to look at it before ordering. Sometimes it isnt popular and itll sit there and get dry. Sometimes it can be greasy, so I check before I get, and when I do get not-old, not-greasy carnitas it is heaven in my mouth. There is the option to order food regular which is as I describe, or extra which includes guacamole and sour cream. I do not recommend the extra. The good is wonderful as is, and the guacamole and sour cream tend to overpower the other flavors. Plus a burrito that is extra is almost inedible as it is so big around it barely can be contained in the tortilla and is more work to keep it together while eating it. Most people prefer the salsa rojo (red), which is very good red sauce. I prefer the salsa verde (green). It is more subtle, more tomatillo-ey, but still tasty. Either will work and the rojo isnt bitter of overly hot, and so works as a main choice with verde as a backup.This place is almost always busy. Saturday evenings are the worse, where youll sometimes wait over 30 minutes just to order. Once ordered, the food is pretty quick, but youll be standing there for a while. It isnt totally bad, as you can make friends with others in line knowing you have something in common: you both love Taco Del Rio.

The tacos were overloaded with toppings... The meat lacked flavor. And the torta lacked meat... More beans than anything. The salsas were so weak. Over all I was disappointed especially for what we paid. Not worth it at all.

Favorite Mexican place. The people there practically only speak Spanish and little English. This makes me feel like Im eating at Mexico. The burritos are what I usually get and the asada fries are to die for. The portions on the fries are huge!

Had the carne asada burrito. The quacamole and shredded lettuce, with cheese mix made it. I wish more places would add the crumbled cheese in burittos. It also had beans, but they way burritos are rolled, it was like a bean burrito on one side and carne asada on the others. I prefer rice in mine. Had it they way they make it, it was good. I dont come this way often, now when I do, I can stop here.

I came here in hopes of finding delicious burritos but ended up not ordering anything...I am allergic to pork products and I felt really nauseous when I saw the workers mixing spoons between the carne asada, chicken and pork meats...that is extremely unsanitary and goes against health regulations. Very disappointed.

I love the burritos theyre different: like a urroto should be made with no rice. Tortilla, beans, meat, cabbage, cheese, onion and cilantro, salsa. Sour cream and guacamole optional 🤤

My absolute favorite taco/burrito place. Good selection of meats and the food is prepared right in front of you. There is always a line, but be ready to order as soon as its your turn. The crowd can get a bit antsy if you take too long!

Best burrito ever. Im Mexican and This is Americanized food but Ill recognize a dam good burrito. Boca del Rio got nothing. Better than king tacos reheated meat and old tortillas. You can see them cook and make your food in front of you the whole time, that alone makes it that much better

This place gets a 5 star because the food is amazing!!!! Although When the line gets long its takes a long time to order your food waited about 40min last time BUT Understand that this is a small place and their are only about 4 or 5 workers working on everything so I understand, Imagine if this place had a bigger Venue they would sky rocket
