All the servers are very nice and friendly. The food is always excellent. A little pricey but worth it. Only problem I ever had was the bar not having the ingredients to make the drink I wanted off the menu.

What a gem! Fantastic food, excellent service, and the decor would make for a great date destination. Good vegetarian options, but I’m guessing the beans and maybe the rice are not veggie. The flan is tasty but not like what you might expect. There’s an extensive drink menu. The prices are a little on the high side, but totally worth it.

I was very disappointed with the service we sat for 15 minutes without a waiter even taking our drink order I had to flag one down ordered bottomless mimosas got the food before the drinks no carafe was left at the table for the mimosas my glass was empty for long periods before I got a refill we went for mothers day Sunday brunch and honestly I would never go back the waitress ruined the entire experience.

I have been wanting to eat here for a while. The food was inexpensive, and the portions were worth the cost. The drinks. The drinks were the best they have some very fun choices and it looks like a full bar. We went for brunch on a Sunday and it was low-key the ambiance was nice and the service was great

I can not say enough about this restaurant. Six weeks in and I can envision this place being the biggest hit in the IE. It’s fairly close to UCR and away from the Downtown Riverside ambience to this area that stands alone in it’s characteristics. If I may I’d say it’s a sparkling jewel in a mine. My my date and I were ushered in with a glowing energy and a soft smile in the eyes we sat and very large comfortable chairs and I can see the layout of this restaurant had a flow to it it wasn’t compromised and it wasn’t empty either. there was Urban art painted on the wall large mural, other popular historical Mexican paintings on the bar side of the restaurant. On your left hand side from the entrance you see smaller tables and coffee tables for people coming in for a nice drink after a long days of work or to catch up with some friends. The lighting was dim and romantic and the music really topped it off. I couldn’t help myself from dancing and swaying as I took in the beauty of this place it had true character a voice of its own.

This is Mexican food on another level. Don’t need to go to West LA or The Valley to get seriously tasty next-gen flavors … They’re right here in Riverside. Great wines from Mexico are an added bonus … everything we tasted was delicious … and I can rarely say that about a restaurant. If Nancy is your server, the experience is even better.

On 1/27/2019 I had the pleasure of joining The Mario’s Place crew to a post Christmas Party at this fine establishment, I must say I was blown away when I walked in, the decor is relaxing, pleasant simple color scheme, yet sophisticated.

This is a great new restaurant to try out. I got the lamb shank which comes with the polenta it was melt-in-your-mouth delicious. My friend got the carne asada which were so tender. As our sides we got the tortillas and rice. The rice was Mexican fusion with Asian flavors. For dessert we got the apple crisps which was so good. The food was excellent but the customer service was out of this world. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Absolutely horrible experience been here once and it was good I liked everything the mole enchiladas until I decided to go a second time with my girlfriend horrible evening we ordered our food and when the food came out it was cold the sauce the chicken the rice and the beans they were all cold my girlfriend ask the waiter to have them warm it up in the microwave and all they did was put sauce on the enchiladas. I can’t believe they couldn’t just reheat the plate and the sauce was poured over the cold food. My girlfriend loses her appetite and I decide to go the bathroom because my stomach started to feel funny and as I return to find out that she found A PIECE OF STEEL WOOL in her beans that’s absolutely disgusting I wish we would have taken photo my girlfriend was so disgusted she had throw it up I always told people the mole here was good but now I am never gonna recommend this place to anyone ever in my life and I will never return
