Castañeda's - Reviews

My experience at this restaurant has been consistently amazing. I've been a loyal customer since my freshman year of high school, and even now as a college student, I happily indulge in their delicious Chile Rellenos, burritos, Jalapeño poppers (which are better than any fast food restaurant's), and enchiladas! The food quality is outstanding, the customer service is always impeccable regardless of the time of day, and the portions are huge for the price! :)

If you're looking for good and reasonably priced Mexican food, then Casteñeda's is the place for you. The food was excellent, and the service was top-notch, both receiving a perfect 5/5. The atmosphere was also rated a 5, and it was noted as being very quiet.

My experience at this restaurant has been consistently positive. I often visit around 2 am and am always impressed by the good food that is always fresh. The staff is attentive and genuinely cares about ensuring your order is correct. I highly recommend trying it; you will love it.

My experience at this restaurant was quite disappointing. I ordered two tacos, rice, and beans, and unfortunately, the food was greasy and caused significant bloating. I'm unsure what other loyal customers are ordering that leads to such a positive perception, especially since I was surprised to learn about their extensive presence with 40 or 50 locations across Riverside and Orange Counties. After four years of hoping for improvement, both this location and the Chula Vista one have failed to impress me. The atmosphere was also a letdown, scoring a 2 out of 5.

My experience at this restaurant was disappointing, primarily due to the food quality. I ordered a chile verde burrito and was surprised to find only six pieces of meat. It felt like I essentially paid $13 for a rice and bean burrito. Based on this experience, I do not recommend this place.

I visited this place, which is advertised as being open 24 hours. Unfortunately, my experience was negative. I arrived at 4: 15 a. M. And was told via intercom that the server was on break. After waiting for approximately 10 minutes, I went to the drive-thru window, but no one was there. I then went to the front and saw a gentleman sitting down on his phone. He informed me that there was only one person working. Despite being the only customer and no one behind me, my order was not taken. I believe they could have taken my order and then gone on break after handing me my food. Due to this poor service, I will definitely not try this place again, regardless of its food quality.

My experience at this restaurant was disappointing, specifically regarding their Cali Burrito. I ordered one and discovered halfway through that it contained NO CHEESE. It was also overloaded with tomatoes and onions, to the point where I had to remove them. Upon unwrapping it further, I noticed there was barely any meat, making it essentially a French fry and tomato burrito. While I can't comment on the rest of the menu as I haven't tried anything else, I definitely won't be returning for a Cali burrito.

I used to go here a lot at night, but lately the french fries are getting smaller and smaller. Today I bought two fries, the portions are so small, it's like being in a French restaurant.

My experience at this restaurant was quite disappointing. I ordered the chorizo burrito, which unfortunately had no flavor at all. When I inquired about this, the staff claimed they used high-quality chorizo, which explained the lack of color and taste. However, the burrito itself was not good; it was rather small and dry, making it feel like a total waste of almost 13 bucks. The service also left much to be desired, as the staff seemed uncaring when I expressed my dissatisfaction. As someone of Mexican heritage who has eaten chorizo my whole life, I can attest that this did not taste high quality. To top it off, they refused to give me my money back, citing that I had taken two bites and comparing it to Denny's, which I believe would have handled the situation differently. The atmosphere was rated a 2, and the food a 1, reflecting my overall negative experience.

My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I had the best hot cheeto carne asada fries in all of San Diego. The portion size was big and the fries were incredibly tasty. The food was rated a 5, and the atmosphere was also a 5. It was a dinner meal, and the price per person was $10–20. There was no wait time.
