Very nice secluded place and still lively with lights, soft music and good taste. Plenty of parking as it is located just a short distance from Genoas busy main strip off of 23 but set back in the strip mall. It has a great patio area and plenty of indoor climate control seats.
Food was fresh, good and to be able to say. The beans and rice taste just like or better than home made. Fresh soft and not heated or left out as most restaurants can some times be. The tacos are loaded with meat and there is plenty of sauce too. If drinks are your favorite, margaritas in a flight and mescal mules! I say yes, and yes!!
Stop by and meet Francisco and Kristina, my 1st time there and I can say I will be back. Great host and great atmosphere, food and drinks!

This is one of our favorite mexican restaurants in DeKalb County. The staff is always professional and curteous and their food doesn’t dissapoint. I have not been there with their live bands, but I bet it provides a fun atmosphere out on their patio. Also, be very careful with their margaritas. Their margaritas are very big, but who would want a small margarita? Just be sure you have a dd because you are probably going to need one or you’ll just have to do a dance off with a little bit of salsa and chips. If that doesn’t appease your appetite, then you can ask for some hot salsa, because who would want to go mild?

The patio is nice. The skinny margarita was very good. The steak in the tacos was over cooked and dry, I would not order again. I read google reviews prior to eating here and wonder if I came on an off night.

Tucked back in the corner on a little side street behind Butera Market, Rivers’ Mexican Cantina is the little place with big things.
You’ll recognise it as the former location of Rosati’s, but they’ve changed it up. You enter into a bright foyer into a side walkway that opens to plenty of bright, roomy tables, and cozy booths that are open enough to allow you to participate in the atmosphere, but private enough for intimate conversation.
We came on a Wednesday night, a party of three, and we were seated quickly and courteously. Our waiter was polite, pleasant and engaging, he took our orders very quickly and for as busy as it was, we were served FAST!
I ordered the torta with carnitas and a side of fries. It’s absolutely enormous but extremely delicious. The bread is fresh, the carnitas very juicy and the layering of the beans, Pico, sour cream and lettuce was perfect. No runny, watery lettuce, none of that. It was delicious.
We also ordered the Genoa Enchiladas. A very generous portion of enchiladas on fresh tortillas with a healthy side of rice and beans, it tasted every bit as good as it looked.
Our third order was the Genoa Fajitas and wow! Fresh, warm tortillas and sour cream, beans, rice and sides served with a sizzling hot plate of chicken, shrimp and steak fajitas, all cooked to perfection in once again a very generous portion.
This is a great place to take the family or to have a special meal or date night. No reservations required. The price is budget friendly (for three people plus a beer, $43), and if you’re interested, also does take out if you’re just looking for a meal in your own home.
A clean and bright atmosphere with attentive staff and excellent food, this is the place to go!

Its a good Mexican restaurant with decent food. Most menu prices are around 20 a person and you won’t leave hungry. 6$ modelo and 12$ margaritas. The might have specials on certain days, went at 3pm so things were slow then.

Good food but didn’t have a couple popular beers available. Would’ve been 5 stars if they had that.

Here to celebrate Mexican Independence Day today. Authentic, flavors of my childhood. I ordered off the menu tacos de nopales, grilled cactus tacos. Delicious! Have a big hunger? Get the molcajete! You won’t be disappointed.

The building, dining area, and bathrooms are really starting to show their age and need a bit of upkeep. Holes in walls, patched areas that are not sanded or painted really draw your attention to the lack of luster. The food was typical but nothing special coupled with tables and benches that are needing some work made the experience ok, but not memorable. Hopefully this is not a trend as this is one a very few restaurants in town that are still open.
