Rivera's

"Heaven Authentic Delicious Family owned and run. Jorge in the front with his wife and the parents cooking. They have a hot Diablo salsa. Tangy with a kick. Some places you want to support and give your money to… this is one of them. Enjoy"

"I've lived in Long Beach for 10 years now, and never bothered to try this place out... shame on me! Finally visited last week since I heard they had a good wet burrito. I was not expecting to visit a place with amazing decor and atmosphere. This place is easy to miss given how busy 7th street is. The neighborhood is a bit run-down and parking may be a small challenge, but don't let that stop you from giving this place a shot. As soon as you walk in, you're surrounded by classic Mexican pictures, decorations, and an overall amazing atmosphere that takes you back to simpler times. They have an express entrance for to-go orders and one for the actual sit-down restaurant. My server was incredibly kind and attentive. I ordered the wet burrito and got a sizable portion. It had the perfect ratios of meat, sauce, cheese, and rice. The server brought a load of chips and salsa, which is always appreciated. It was also a nice touch to see that they had Bohemia. Not many Mexican restaurants in the area have that beer, so I definitely ordered one. As good as the burrito was, the flan stole the show. Everything from the presentation, freshness, to quality was unbelievable. Great place to visit and I look forward to coming again."

"Great little local hot spot. Food was delicious! George and Anna Rivera are super sweet people who provide great customer service. The albondigas soup with all the fixn’s (cilantro, rice, onions, lemon and green hot sauce) was especially yummy. Their mango and Cadillac margaritas were excellent."

"Where do I begin… Rivera’s on 7th in Long Beach. Wow. It was like a religious experience. Check it out if you’re in town - you won’t be disappointed! It’s as authentic as you can get, and clearly cooked with love. If Google had 10 stars, I’d give this place 20."

"Such a great spot for excellent Mexican food. I would highly recommend this place. I had the special of the day (2 carnitas with rice and beans) and it was excellent. The other people in my party highly enjoyed their meals as well. Their shredded chicken was some of the best I have ever tried and was so moist. The staff was very nice friendly and attentive.. The restaurant is quaint so I would recommend calling ahead for a reservation to make sure you can get in. They do have a to go counter so you can order and take it to the beach. House salsa is also delicious and very flavorful! Looking forward to coming back again. Only downside is the parking is a little sparse so plan ahead to look for parking."
