Taco was soggy by the time we ate it. It fell apart. Salsa should have been separate.

Food is terrible. The workers do their best. Just like The Habit, this place is being pinched for every penny and the food suffers. These chains are just garbage now. It's a shame since it used to be good.

Service was 5 stars thanks to JP and Daniel.
We ordered our food online and they were made exactly right. And tasted good.
The bad thing was the chips. The chips were really disgustingly gross and disappointing. They tasted like they were cooked in stale oil. I had to throw them out.

Went there tonight for taco Tuesday and it was delicious! The staff was awesome the guy working the line tonight made the perfect taco nothing feel out it was perfectly proportioned. You get so much bang for your buck and the food has a quality above the competitors. Thank you Cafe Rio! Happy Taco Tuesday ✨

Usually excellent staff - today (5/20/25) they must have been training an unusual number of new employees.
I still give it 5+ stars for value and taste.

Mexican American cafeteria style similar to Chipotle but not quite there.

Menu is simple and and the protein options offered are what you expect (asada, pork, chicken) yet they also have vegan option too. Kids sizes here are a bit on the smaller end than other cafeteria style diners. The adult size are also not as large as what you expect at other similar diners too. The food server adds the greens and sides to your request. Food taste could improve. The barbeque pork tasted quite sweet however with the sides included something seems to take the taste away.

Plenty of seating both indoor and outdoor. Dining area looked very clean. Restrooms also were kept very clean. On our visit there only the soda fountain was the options for drinks. Didn't have any heathier beverage options.

Service was ok. Simple serve and onto the next.

First time visit. I would recommend checking out other similar cafeteria style diners before this one.

I come here often. The food is delicious. The staff is all usually friendly. I feel particularly compelled to give Daniel a shout out, whenever he is on shift the restaurant is always super clean and my order always turn out perfect. Daniel is also a very funny and charismatic dude, Cafe Rio is lucky to have him. Today was no exception to my usual great experience and I’m already looking forward to coming back for my next meal.
