I love Wednesday's $.99 taco night. They are quick getting the order out. And their burritos are very tasty. I haven't gotten much other than that because I am a taco or burrito girl. So every Rivas Grill I've gone to is pretty consistent and quick to make the order. Check them out.

The location on N Hills Blvd is new and having a few growing pains. We had dined at the location in Sparks and loved it, so as soon as they opened we went. So did everybody else in the north valleys. A Friday evening visit was a bit hectic. The beef tacos were chicken but good and I didn't take it back. The serving size of the rice and beans was too small. Don't disappoint someone with small portions of the least expensive items you offer. Wait time was not too bad considering how many people had flooded the place. The salsa bar is a treat. Red or green or both. So jump forward a couple of weeks and try Tuesday about 2 and you have a completely different story. Beef enchiladas, rice and beans. The size of the ride and beans was what it should be and the beef in the enchiladas was tender. Way too often beef is full of gristle but not here. Because we are in the north valleys and the issues on our first visit had been resolved Rivas will continue to be one of our choices for dine in or pick up.

New to the neighborhood comes Rivas! I made the mistake of calling the wrong number and had to reorder my food when I got to the restaurant after a 15 minute wait and a mix up of whose name was who, but the young lady on site seemingly running their front of house was polite and accommodating. I ordered their steak fries, a steak burrito and their Rivas burrito combo. A bit on the pricier side I'll admit when comparing them to Roberto's or Carmelitas right around the corner. Everything was absolutely delicious. The fries were crispy, the steak well done, tender and deliciously seasoned. It was raining the evening I stopped by, but regardless it didn't stop anyone from coming in or pulling up to the drive thru which is open 24 hours. The service was a good 10-15 minute wait from the time I put my order in to when the food was ready which was to be expected and I sat inside and enjoyed a fairly chill atmosphere with your usual ambient noise and aromas of chicken, steak, pepper's and such. Overall, I had a great experience minus the hiccup. I usually get names I know, but I was thrown off by having called the wrong number and being hungry. I'll stop by again soon to take another visit and give you a better look at this new spot in North Reno. - Please note the contact number on their website for the one locally in North Hills goes to an Utah number. Please use the number on the mailer instead that reached homes a few weeks ago.
