This place has amazing food. I came here with my wife to give it a shot. And it was the biggest surprise we've had in some time. It looks like you're walking into a gas station Store, but when you walk in, it seems to turn into an amazing restaurant. With a bar lots of t vs with sports of all types on, they are serving agua's frescas, salsa bar. And great Mexican food served to your tables. I had never had a torta before. Not sure why. But it shocked me how good it was. And it was fat. My wife loved her food too. Super great people. We got to meet them and this restaurant is spotless. Way worth a stop just off the freeway. They even have a drive through definitely worth giving it a shot. We gave it a 10 out of 10. Bar serves beer wine and wine based cocktails that are awesome.

Absolutely Outstanding Experience at Alvarado’s Mexican Grill! I had the pleasure of visiting Alvarado’s Mexican Grill recently, and I can’t say enough good things about it. The food is fresh, flavorful, and authentically prepared—but what really makes this place shine is the people behind it. The owners are genuinely warm and friendly, and their hospitality left a lasting impression. They recently hosted an event for the Jurupa Chamber of Commerce, and it was a fantastic experience. From the warm welcome to the thoughtful service, everything was handled with professionalism and a personal touch. You could really feel the love and pride they put into both their food and their service. It’s rare to find a local restaurant that combines quality cuisine with such heartwarming hospitality. Whether you're there for a casual meal or a special event, you’ll be treated like family. Highly recommend supporting this amazing local gem! —Paul A.

First time eating here. Next to a gas station, so parking is somewhat limited. Portions are small but food is good. Asada is juicy & tender.

Alverados Mexican Grill in Jurupa Valley inside the gas station is a hidden gem. I tried the Quesataco on my first visit and OMG this place SLAPS, the flavor and freshness were next level and honestly better than most sit down restaurants. I came back today and went through the drive thru, once again the food was absolutely stellar. My only complaint is that there are not enough locations because I would go all the time if there were more. If you love Mexican cuisine this is a must try, highly recommend.

I always pass by when I come for work but also on personal vacation. The horchata is the best

At first I wasn't sure if we had gone to the right place because Google Maps had sent us to a gas station until I realized that the restaurant is right next to the gas station, like when you need to go to the restroom you're sharing the same bathroom with the gas station, but it's clean like a restaurant restroom, not a gas station one. Don't let this turn you off. If not for the location, the restaurant itself is decent. When you walk in, it's clean and modern. It's a typical fast food place where you place your order at the counter, get a number, then sit wherever you want. I was happy there were some vegetarian options and the food we ordered tasted good. Even the drinks have real fruit in them, like I ordered pineapple and was given a huge cup that had big chunks of pineapple in it. The waitress who served us had a big smile and even as we left, the other waitresses waved goodbye to us with big smiles. They were also diligent about keeping the place clean, like a family at a table in front of us had barely left when the waitresses swooped in to clean everything up. One of them also started vacuuming. So yes, it's weird to park your car at a gas station, but once you get over it, it is a nice fast food restaurant.

I've been here twice. Really enjoyed the food. We came with a toddler and it was clean and they have highchairs available. Don't be bothered by the fact that it is attached to a gas station. The food Is good wuality and is served hot and fresh. There id a bar and good size tv's for watching sports. I really wish they opened earlier for breakfast but maybe in the future that can change.
