For a large chain of mostly mediocre food (they have at least 5 spins on the name in the region), I always wonder why they're so insistent on pushing their pico de gallo as a catch-all topping and filler? Across town, at another location, I once got a nachos that failed to have melted cheese and was smothered in spoiled pico de gallo. Anyhow, I hoped for a better outcome one day not long ago at this newer location just off the 60E Freeway. I like the huge tortillas they use for the burritos, but I felt a little let down by the lack of filler in the carne asada I ordered. The meat was a bit tough, cool, and really didn't have any dominant flavors. The hot sauces are now available in sealed packaging, which is pretty cool. Again, however, I wasn't wowed by either the red or Verde. Perhaps I should have asked if they could add rice and beans?I left a little bit disappointed and unsure if I'd return to try tacos or something else. The employees are very nice and the interior is spacious and clean.

Open 24 hours check. Big burritos check Good prices check! The burrito was great filled to the max. The tortilla had that little fresh bubble char on it which I enjoy. On the regular size so you may not want to share this one. Also tried their rolled tacos nice and crisp hidden under the generous topping of cheese that slightly melts as it sits. Salsa bar with individual green and red sauces. And pickled carrot jalapeño mix along with limes and cilantro onion. All kept nice and fresh on a bed of ice. Service was great! Received our food quickly and everything tasted so fresh. Inside tables, soda fountain, nice and clean. Well maintained. Kitchen was open and looked well organized and also very clean. It's a pretty popular place as the line started forming once we were heading out. Conveniently located right off the 60 fwy Main st. Exit. You can drive around the block or go through the Arco gas station if it isn't too crowded. Sometimes that area can get a little congested by the freeway entrance.

Pulled up for a late night craving. Food was cold and unappetizing. Server was unclear and slow. Would not eat here again unless I would like to risk food poisoning.

I cannot believe there is an Albertaco's in Riverside! We always make a drive out to Cypress whenever we crave it, but now we can have it without the drive. The cashier is awesome! The inside is welcoming and very clean. The food is as delicious as can be! We will probably be coming here from now on. Super excited and highly recommend.

The food is pretty good, portion sizes are great, everything comes with way too much lettuce guacamole and pico de Gallo though, always turns into a bad salad at the end of the meal even when having a bit with every bite.My biggest complaint though is how they apparently don't know what fajitas are and I frequently am given salsa Verde when asking for salsa roja and vice versa. Same thing with corn vs flour tortillas, I only ever ask for corn but Ive gotten flour several times. As someone with Celiac's disease that is extra frustrating.

This place has so much potential. Place is clean, food is made quick. BUT, the cashier and the cooks don't acknowledge clients AT ALL.. the kitchen is open and visible to the clients. A "welcome" or "thank you" goes a long way for a consumer. The cashier barely even spoke a word. And just took my order. I don't think I'll come back.

The food is whatever , definitely not worth the price they tried to charge , they also charged me a extra dollar and 3 cents , for what I have no idea there's no sign indicating they charge a fee for paying with card . I suggest paying cash if you want to waste your money on mediocre food here .

Super Fries are AMAZING. The carne asada is bomb. Beans, rice, and carnitas are decent. Not great but not bad. Most of the stuff I've tried here is pretty good overall, but definitely the Super Fries with the carne asada are the best thing I've had. 5 stars for those.However... the fish taco is total garbage. The shell is a good size, but the fish inside is a glorified fish stick. Oily and thin, with not much meat. It was way overloaded with cabbage and ESPECIALLY overloaded with pico de gallo.... Which was 90% onions with a hint of tomato and cilantro. I have an onion intolerance but I hate ordering things "special" so I would usually just scrape it off to not make things harder on the cooks. But there were SO MANY ONIONS I ended up just dumping my entire set of toppings off and scraping the fish so I didn't have to waste time picking through them all. I'm sharing a pic of both the fish and the "pile" of onions I first tried to pick out/scrape off. I don't know anyone who actually wants that many onions on their taco, even if they don't have an intolerance like me.I think overall there are one or two EXCELLENT options here, plenty of decent options, and at least one really terrible option, so I'm rating it 3 stars overall.
