Amazing Mexican food with thick homestyle corn tortillas used for everything from enchiladas to quesadillas. The downtown Redlands secret those in the know have been going to for over 30 years! Add a little salt to the salsa to make it perfect!

Good food, great people, and a casual atmosphere. Whether it's dining in, taking out, or catering an event, Oscar's has always been satisfied. We especially enjoy the mini-combo grilled fish tacos, Ricas enchiladas, and Shrimp Poblano. Yum!!

Not a bad little place. Took my daughter here and it was OK. The friendly customer service & salsa was the best part. Little pricey for the size of the burritos. My daughter won't go here again, but I probably will
