Dos Hermanas Mexican Food is the comfort cuisine you’ve been looking for
Maribel Gamez-Reyes -
Dos Hermanas Mexican Food is the restaurant you’ve dreamed of when it comes to those sudden soft taco cravings, childhood home-cooked meals, nostalgic throwbacks of fiestas and taquizas with lively music.
Attracting customers since its opening in 1978, this family-owned restaurant has evolved but thoroughly maintained the consistent gold standard of Mexican food that many Riverside residents have unwaveringly enjoyed...
Accepting orders since April 1 of this year, Noods is the University of California Riverside’s (UCR) first customizable noodle bar located in Glen Mor Market. Conceptualized as a late-night spot for students living on campus, Noods will be accessible from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. Sunday through Thursday; hours are open to change in the future.

After a long day of shopping and movie-watching at Tyler Mall, take a moment to sit back, relax and indulge in some dessert goodness (it’ll balance out the large bucket of popcorn that you demolished after watching “The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes”). A plethora of restaurants around the area offer food ranging from spicy barbecue, mouth-watering tacos or...
We are currently witnessing the mainstream-ification of matcha in the United States (U.S.). While it has always been a staple in Japan, industry statistics show that this tea-based powder has become increasingly high in demand in the U.S. The ingredient can be incorporated into smoothies, boba and even lemonade, but currently, you are most likely to see it in...
