This is a great spot. The food is mediocre, with the exception of the tortilla chips, which were great. The place is tidy – even the bathrooms. The guy who was working the counter/bar was awesome.

But I feel like I got the short end of the stick. My buddy got a huge burrito. My other buddy got a huge burrito bowl. But the chicken tacos were a rip off. $20 for 3 very small tacos and a small bowl of rice & beans.

So I would recommend going here and avoiding the tacos.

Won a giveaway a couple of weeks ago and decided to pop in for taco Tuesday. And the food did not disappoint. Everything tasted extremely fresh.

Immediately you noticed how clean and new everything is on the inside. They do have outdoor seating and wish you could bring your dog, but I’m not sure how they’re gonna handle it during the colder months. This place isn’t that big and they filled up pretty quickly after 5 PM.
This place is own and operated by the same people who run The other restaurant Riverside a few blocks up. The food was actually pretty good. All the ingredients tasted fresh like it was from the farmers market or something. I also enjoyed the fact that, even though I was sitting at the bar, I can see my food be made, and prepared, which added that comforting factor.
The bartender Joe, I believe his name was, awesome and on point even though it was just him and one other person managing the whole restaurant that evening. Plenty of TVs to watch the game, they even had some low music playing also. I went on a Tuesday, which was the perfect day because they were having taco specials three tacos of your choice for $9 and the House margaritas were $6 with $5 beer. Their prices seem reasonable for the most part but I definitely see myself coming on Tuesday to get more bang for my buck. Drinks were made really good And too perfection. That dragon fruit margarita instantly became my favorite.

I would love to see this place cater to all of the different communities in the area. I feel like that will make them even more popular.

Visited the newly opened Riverside Cantina and enjoyed every bit of it! You walk in, grab a seat, and someone is with you right away. Even though they’re still working out a few kinks as a new spot, the staff moves quickly and works hard to take care of everyone.

The team was super friendly and talkative, which made the busy atmosphere feel welcoming and relaxed. We sat at the bar and tried their signature cocktails—they were fairly priced, delicious, and generously poured.

The food was just as impressive: fresh, hot, and exactly as described on the menu. One thing we really liked was that the menu leans into a fun happy-hour and bar food vibe, but the quality and flavor go above and beyond. There’s truly something for everyone.

Give them a shot! I truly hope they stick around!

I’ve been twice now, had Al Pastor tacos first visit and the Chipotle Chicken Sandwich next visit. Both were phenomenal. Chicken was crunchy, juicy and insanely flavorful. The yuca chips were a great touch. Margaritas were delicious too! Only critique I could have is I think the lighting inside is a bit cold. Would be nice if the lights were warmer inside.

Great food options! LOVED my beef barbecoa bowl, it was HUGE. My group got beers by I had a basic/skinny Herradura marg – wish I could’ve stayed for more. Sit at the bar too. FREE chips too – so many places charge for that. Run, don’t walk to get there!

The food was very good! We had the three amigos as an app- can’t go wrong with salsa, guac and queso. The beef tacos were also delish. A bit small of a taco for the price, but still tasty. The churros were very good as well!

Had dinner last night here and it was very good! The chips are so good AND I brought the remaining ones home and they were still good later! I had steak tacos and they were just the right amount and incredibly tasty. Our server was really nice and they remade my Lone Ranger because I am a sensitive flower, and it was so tart. So word to the wise on that one. My friend said it is usually busy but we were there well after the Ravens game and it was not crowded. Still loud from the football game/speakers still playing, but that is the kind of place it is.

Going into a new, Mexican restaurant you expect the vibe to be performative and un-authentic. That is NOT what we got when we arrived here. The margaritas were expertly crafted to give me the perfect amount of confidence to go for a risky food option…Steak tacos. As soon as the tacos came out I knew it would be an unearthly and even orgasmic experience. The first bite made me feel like I was laying on the beaches of Mexico with my good buddy Theo. The only reason it did not get 5 stars was because the prices are high and I saw a fly in the bathroom.

Lovely restaurant and employees. The wife and I went here today before the ravens game and was hospitality, food, and drinks were amazing. You can tell they use fresh ingredients for all their food and drinks. Definitely will be back.

Both times I have been there, same staff and they always add a drink I didn’t have to my tab. I’m not saying they’re shady. But 2 for 2 and I am cured. I have better things to do than fight over a tab.. I still tipped and I felt guilty leaving under 20%, but I don’t appreciate it when people try to take advantage. I don’t even drink the items they add so it’s kinda egregious. It’s just gross. Grow up. Again, both times. No thanks.
