    I had some beef tacos and a side of rice and beans. They also served some chips and salsa and fresh cucumber and radish slices with it. The food was fresh, hot and delicious. The prices were reasonable. The employee at the counter was friendly and the food was ready quickly. This is a win in every aspect.

    I had a quesadilla with chicken that came with a side salad. So tasty and reasonably priced! The service was pleasant and food was out quickly. The space was full of families and has a very cozy welcoming vibe. I'll be back!

    When I'm craving some authentic tacos, Rivas is my go to. The place is kind of small which is why I always order to go. They have different types of tacos, burritos, quesadillas and more. My favorite order is the chicken tacos. Sometimes I find it hard to choose one and purchase a couple types of tacos. I love the fresh onions and cilantro they put on the tacos . They always give a bag of salsa, sliced cucumbers & radish, and fresh chips. I always get a bottle of Sidral Mundet Apple Soda with my tacos. Apple soda sounds off but it is so good! I'm a pretty big eater and I get full by two to these and the chips. If you like spicy they also add a pepper with every order. This place always hits for me. Can't wait to go back!
