Wow! Would leave 6 stars if I could - this place is fantastic. The skinny margarita is delicious, the free chips and salsa taste homemade and fresh, and the steak is delectable. Our server Ari was very nice and gave great recommendations.
The manager, Lucas, also checked in and made sure we had a great experience.

First time ever going to Rio. Stopped in for a quick margarita and had such a great experience we ended up eating dinner as well as having a few drinks. Our server, Ansel, was amazing with menu knowledge and being super attentive. We will definitely be back to see him!

It's starting to get a little cold at night now and my family was not prepared for that. They did their best to accommodate us and move us to a warmer area even though they were packed. Both the food and drinks were great in my opinion, the fajitas were different from what I've had but tasted amazing. I would recommend the atomic salsa!
