Los Cabos Tacos — Restaurant in Riverside

I’ve been to Los Cabos many times... Every single time I’ve had great service and great food! Being of Mexican descent, growing up eating real, authentic Mexican food, I must say that places like these are hard to find. When I go to a Mexican restaurant, I expect to eat food that tastes like it’s homemade. I don’t have patience for Americanized Mexican food, and that’s what a lot of places seem to serve. (Unless I’m going to Taco Bell or Del Taco, then I KNOW to expect Americanized Mexican food). I can’t stand things like: black pepper in salsa, yellow cheese, terrible tortillas, flavorless and dry Mexican rice, or horchata made from a mix. At Los Cabos you will find NONE of those things... The salsa is delicious, tortillas are soft, rice is fluffy, crema and Mexican white cheese served on fish tacos is excellent. For those giving bad reviews regarding wait times... if you want fresh food, it takes time to cook from scratch! The wait is WELL worth it. My favorites are the burritos, fish tacos, quesadillas and ceviche...

Update: I'm glad I gave them another shot today. I didn't try the horchata this time though. I got one each of the birria, pastor, and fish tacos. All delicious! Also, I didn't have to wait long for my to-go order. Fish was cooked to perfection. Pastor tasted like chorizo, but the birria was tasty and juicy. Great flavors overall. They have specials most days of the week. You'll rarely find tacos at this quality and price these days. I will continue coming back. Always clean inside too.

Last review: I haven't been in a while. I used to love love this place! I recently had fish tacos again and I didn't recognize anyone there. They handed me the wrong to go order. No big deal really, I brought it back. I used to love their horchata. When I went a few days ago, it tasted like straight milk and water. No cinnamon, no other flavor at all. Very disappointed. The fish tacos tasted good at least. It'll be a while until I go back again. Maybe it was new staff that didn't know what...

My new favorite Mexican restaurant. I like their al pastor and carnitas tacos. The California burrito is nice and very big. Asada and chicken tacos are very good too. I usually get a side of refried beans which they don't skimp on.

Taco tuesday-$1.35 tacos Wednesday-I think the specials taquitos. Very good. Thursday-$1.35 fish tacos. (not grilled, deep fried) grilled fish tacos are still $1.79.

Tacos are normally $1.79, can get a few for less than $5.

Try the queadillas, they usually let me choose whatever meat I want in it. I usually get carne asada or al pastor.

Not sure the other days but I think they have burrito specials 1 or 2 other days also.

They have tons of other items including seafood, ceviche and so on. They constantly change it add some other stuff, they added carne asada fries and buche tacos and some other items since I've started coming here.

A friend says aguachiles are good, they have them here I believe but I don't want to try alone...
