Cafe Rio Fresh Modern Mexican offers a variety of experiences. The food is described as delicious, especially the tacos on Taco Tuesday, and the restaurant features fresh-made tortillas and ice nuggets for drinks. The staff members are friendly and eager to help, with many reviewers praising their kindness and professionalism. Customers also appreciate the vegetarian options, such as grilled fajitas and the new corn salsa, which is highly recommended. The restaurant is considered a nice place to take families, with good music creating a welcoming atmosphere. While some mention issues with online ordering delays and missing items, employees are courteous and apologetic, helping to make the overall experience positive. The mint lemonade has received some negative feedback, with one customer comparing it to recycled toilet water. Despite this, the good food and friendly staff make Cafe Rio a place worth visiting, especially on less busy days. It is advised to avoid ordering sides for $1.79, as they are small and not worth the price, but upgrading to a large drink offers better value. The restaurant's great Taco Tuesday deals and app offers add to its appeal.
