Miguel’s Jr

Okay I moved to Moreno Valley and Miguel’s has always been my favorite since childhood. This location is clean and spacious. Food is always correct to order and taste delicious as always. Not authentic mexican food if that’s what you’re looking for but I can assure you it is the best tasting mexican fast food around. I get a chile verde burrito without rice and taquitos. ahh making me drool!

First time coming here, I ordered the Miguel Jr nachos with shredded beef. I was not impressed at all, the beef was lacking flavor, the tortilla chips were broken. Let’s just say that I wasn’t impressed and won’t be coming back.

The review is for the Riverside location.

Bad attitude. Bad customer service. I’m a huge fan and I am very disappointed at the service. I would rather drive out to the Riverside location then to eat at this location again.

Miguel’s bean and cheese you can’t go wrong. Their salsa is great. Always get 3 per item you will want more. Their shredded beef tacos are really good too. Start there and then explore. Work your way up to the el potato burrito with pork. Hold the rice. So good. Try it wet

Although this is not a traditional family Mexican restaurant, I was really impressed with the amount and quality of food at this fast food restaurant. The food is fresh and the combination plates even come with a soft drink beverage at no extra charge. The only thing that is missing (unless you pay extra) are the chips and salsa. I strongly recommend this place.

Had a carne asada burrito with guacamole it was pretty good, i didnt like how most of the tables where dirty but other then that was good food i would come again, most likely threw the drive thru

I came here on a referral and the nutritional was cold and the spicy salsa was not very spicy. This is a mediocre Mexican fast food joint. For the money I do not recommend if authentic Mexican food is the goal.

Really nice and friendly! Ordered enchilada plate, it was really good! Made sure we had utensils and all of our order and it was fast !!!

Ordered a shredded beef garbage burrito wet. I ended up getting chicken in it. Can’t really check when you go through the drive thru. But it still was good. 4 stars because they messed up.

I don’t understand why they are super stingy with the chips. If I’m ordering food for multiple people I kind of want chips as a courtesy. It’s not a unheard of or crazy demand. So finally when they charge u for chips, they barely give u any. there were literally 9 chips in a tiny bag. I asked for a salsa or pico and was told they didn’t have any and would have to settle for chopped tomato. Ridiculous. Taco Bell has much more flavor than this location. Ur portion size depends on who’s working that second. Super inconsistent. Not returning. I can chew cardboard for free. Sad excuse for Mexican food

BOMB BURRITO!
Soooo I’ve been to numerous Miguel Jr. Locations and have been a Miguel’s lover for years now. But this location… Oh this location is true to the original Miguel’s Jr quality when it first opened. The burrito was PACKED and loaded up with beans, rice, and cheese! Reminded me of the good old days when Miguel’s Jr first opened in Corona down sixth street. The burritos were always huge and super filling. I’ve noticed that recently and at other locations they skimp a little bit on how much they pack in your burrito. This location is true to the original Miguel’s Jr’s legacy! Amazing … My bean rice and cheese burrito was heavenly! So excited to come back to this one, until that happens I’ll be dreaming of my next bean rice and cheese burrito, or maybe I’ll go for a veggie burrito next time? :)

It takes a lot for me to write a bad review. In fact I rarely write reviews at all. It was 10 minutes before closing on the first day of November, 2015. The pla e was empty and there was trash all over the floor.
Hesitantly, I ordered a «wet» original Carne Asada burrito. It took all but 45 Seconds to be placed in front of me. It was served in a clear to go container with unmelted shredded cheddar cheese on top. I cut I to it with the plastic utensils they provided and took a bite… the thing was ice cold… all the way from the «wet» sauce to the beans, rice, meat and cheese… I know exactly why. The cook wanted to get out of there… he had already broke down his station, turned off the grill and cooled his «mis en place».
So instead of just telling me «you know what… we have shut down a little early… sorry,» they proceed to serve me a cold @ss burrito. To bad! The flavor of the meat was actually really good and tender.
So hence to say I took one more bite in the middle just to be sure… I mean the cheese in the middle was still like it looks in the bag, not even a little melted… and went to the counter to return it.
They asked why and I explained that it was ice cold. They offered to make me another one. But I declined, and got my money back. Didn’t want any extra surprises in my burrito if you know what I mean…
A sad day indeed for Miguel Jr.
BEWARE!!!

Miguel’s Jr gets four stars due to the value. You can get a pretty good bean and cheese burrito (it’s no Cuca’s) for a little over two and half dollars. A compliant I have with them is the structural integrity of their burritos– They always start falling apart when I am half-​way through. Also, they should think about adding french fries to their menu; sometime I’m so desperate, I end going to Portillo’s in order to get an order with my burrito.

We LOVE miguel’s Jr and we frequent them often. But there’s something about this one in Moreno Valley that is off. The beans /​rice/​cheese ratio on a simple brc is off, the fillings are not hot, the tortillas are often older and dry, and the wet sauce is never hot, rather just barely warm meaning the loads of cheese they put inside and on top are never even close melted. Every. Single. Time. And the food is not hot and fresh like the other locations. We live close to this one, but never go here anymore after giving them a chance at least 20 times. Save your money and to Grand Terrace, Corona, or the one in the Tyler mall locations.

Went yesterday (⁸⁄₂₂) and ordered the chicken nachos, which were really good. The thinned guacamole sauce is decent and the sour cream (crema) is alright. The chicken was actually tasty and I did not encounter any sketchy pieces of pollo. I can recommend this item.
Ordered two bean, rice, and cheese burritos. They are huge. They each seem to weigh over a pound! They are truly filling and I recommend for vegetarians and meat eaters alike.

This place has good food for fair pricing. I could see why this place is so successful in the Riverside county area. I would recommend to all my family and friends.
I would recommend their bean and cheese burritos.

If this is your first time here you must order the bean and cheese burrito. The best bean and cheese burrito ever. If you’ve been here before and you haven’t tried the chicken quesadilla or chicken taco drained oil it’s great. You’ll notice the people that work here are very friendly the place is very clean and you get your food quickly but not too quickly as to worry if it was already cooked before you got there because it wasn’t it is very fresh.

*** Delicious, Bomb, Mouth Watering…***
How else can I describe the Miguel’s original wet burrito besides, DELICIOUS! The Miguel’s Jr. orginal wet burrito with marinated chili verde pork is absolutely a delight to eat! The burrito is soft, moist, and full of flavor. The burrito is evenly layered so I can taste the marinated chili verde pork, rice, and re-​fried beans in every bite. This is easily my new favorite Mexican restaurant.
This is some really good home cooking brought to a fast food environment. Yum yum :-)
Food = Very good
Service = friendly
Eating area = super clean
Restroom = clean

Chile verde pork burrito will definitely have you porked! Tender chunks of pork in a mild sauce… TASTY. I’m now addicted to this porkin’ burrito: P
The shredded beef burrito did not have much flavor — SKIP THIS ONE.
Carne asada burrito is A-​OK. They use a better quality meat for the carne asada, which explains why they charge much more for a carne asada burrito. My daughter is not a big fan of beef, but she ate almost half the meat from my burrito.
I also tried a BRC (beans, rice and cheese) burrito. This is a good alternative for when the colon needs a break from too much meat. You get a nice size burrito for $ 2.39 with better quality ingredients. I’m not the biggest fan of refried beans, but the beans are good here (not canned). The Spanish (yellow) rice is decent. My only complaint is that the cheese came on ONE side.
Note to staff: please spread the cheese throughout the ENTIRE burrito. Thanks!
Minimum for a burrito w/​shredded beef, shredded chicken, OR chile verde pork is $ 4.59. This is the more plain «Miguel’s Jr Original burrito» with Spanish rice, refried beans, cheddar cheese, and your choice of meat.
Minimum for a carne asada burrito is $ 6.39 (before tax). But it can be as much as $ 8 for a «famous garbage burrito» with carne asada. The garbage burrito comes with refried beans, Spanish rice, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomatoes,
fresh guacamole & sour cream. The problem with the garbage burrito is that the guacamole and the sour cream will make everything too mushy inside the burrito.
Also, get your burrito wet style w/​enchilada sauce and cheese for an additional $ 1.19.
By the way, there’s much more on the menu (tacos, quesadilla, nachos, etc.). See link ~
but I just happen to dig burritos!
This is a growing chain in the inland empire, and they even have one location in the OC. Drive-​thru service is friendly and fast.
