" I decided to take a chance on Rivas after hearing mixed reviews from friends. I ordered the carne asada fries and a steak taco. The fries were crispy and loaded, but the taco left me a bit disappointed—it was lacking seasoning and felt inadequate portion-wise. The service was confusing as I felt ignored at the drive-thru. I think I’ll give it one more try to see if my experience improves next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the most amazing experience at Rivas last weekend! Their carne asada fries were superb and the staff was incredibly friendly. I loved the fast service and the outdoor seating area was perfect for enjoying my meal. The price felt justified considering the portion size and the quality of the food. I highly recommend checking out their burritos—huge and filled with fresh ingredients. I’ll definitely be back here soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the chance to visit Rivas Mexican Food last weekend, and I must say it exceeded my expectations! The carne asada burrito was juicy and packed with flavor. The staff was friendly and attentive, which definitely added to the experience. I also enjoyed a refreshing horchata. I recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Mexican food. The pricing is reasonable given the quality and portion sizes. I will be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve frequented Rivas for a long time, but my last visit left me a bit underwhelmed. The shrimp tacos I ordered had too much mayo and not enough shrimp. On top of that, the server that took my order was very distracted, making it a frustrating experience. The prices are reasonable, but if the quality continues to decline, I might reconsider where I go for my Mexican fix. " (*Curated Review*)

" Rivas Mexican Food is one of the best when it comes to late-night cravings! Their breakfast burritos are deliciously filled, and the flavors never disappoint. I also love sitting in their outdoor area, especially with friends. The only drawback is that sometimes the staff can seem overwhelmed during rush hours. But overall, I would highly recommend it!

" Rivas hasn't always been a favorite of mine, as I've had a few disappointing visits. Their prices seem reasonable, but the portions are inconsistent. Some days food is delicious and other days it’s bland. I've experienced good service, but sometimes I’ve felt like they could be more attentive. Overall, it's a hit or miss, but I'm willing to give it a chance to revive my faith in it. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've had mixed experiences at Rivas, which makes it hard for me to give them five stars. Some meals are delicious while others just don't taste as good. I think it really comes down to the cooks working that day. Nevertheless, it’s a decent place to get Mexican food if you're nearby, but don't set your expectations too high. " (*Curated Review*)
