My date and I were immediately taken in by the vibrant energy of the place, and the warm smiles from the staff made us feel right at home. We settled into large, comfortable chairs, and I appreciated the well-designed layout of the restaurant, which felt inviting and lively rather than empty. The walls featured impressive urban art and large murals, including several well-known historical Mexican paintings along the bar.

We often drive by this place in North Riverside and finally decided to try it out. My wife and I were pleasantly surprised by the character of the restaurant; it’s picturesque, cozy, and features a full bar. On Wednesday, I ordered Brussels sprouts, which were perfectly cooked and roasted. I’m on a diet but decided to give the green chicken enchiladas a shot. While they weren't as spicy as my wife's, they were still delicious, and the beans and rice were authentically prepared. The service was excellent as well. I’m looking forward to going back for brunch!

that is Mexican eating on another level. Do not have to go west la or the valley to get seriously delicious next-gen flavors. they are here in riverside. big wee from mexiko are an additional bonus. everything we tasted was delicious and I can rarely say that over a restaurant. if nancy is her server, the experience is even better.

Ordered the sopes appetizer it was cold and had no flavor. The carne asada was rare and when asked for well done the waiter said “we serve it medium rare”. The pasta was bland and had no flavor or cheese how it was described. Book a table now

One of my favorite hidden gems for Mexican food in Riverside! I love their chicken enchiladas, as well as the cheese enchiladas. Their guacamole is fresh and chunky. I highly recommend trying this place if you haven't yet!

We have been recommending Placita to everyone we know. The food is always delicious, especially for dinners. We wish Riverside had more restaurants like this. The chef is really talented.

The cheese enchiladas were quite tasty. The refried beans were enjoyable, but the rice lacked flavor. I requested utensils, but they were not provided.

These tacos are waaaay too small to be $15. It was a fair deal when they were only $10. Sadly, I wont be ordering from here anymore. Book a table now

The cheese enchiladas were delicious, and the portion of chips that accompanied the guacamole was just right.
