The El Tocayo Birrieria food truck has added a new location.

The new location is at 14th and Main streets in downtown Riverside.

Paired with the truck at that location is the Supreme Churro food truck.

There’s also a challenge section in the app where users can earn bonus points.

New name

During a recent visit to Ontario Mills, I spotted a change coming to Fishbone Seafood at 980 Ontario Mills Drive, Suite E.

Signage is up indicating the location is undergoing a name change to Fish Hook.

The restaurant is temporarily closed while it receives a makeover.

Fish Hook retains the same owners and menu, which features Southern-style seafood.
