Tequila Rio: Mexican Cantina offers a lively dining experience along the Connecticut River. The menu features a variety of Mexican favorites, from classic tacos and burritos to unique dishes like chicaronnes (pork belly) and garlic shrimp. The food is absolutely delicious, bursting with authentic flavors, and the happy hour margarita is amazing—considered the best in the area. Guests can enjoy a scenic atmosphere with shaded outdoor seating, real plants, and jungle vibes, complemented by a beautiful river view. Live music by The Goza Rio Trio and Latin music on point add to the vibrant ambiance. The restaurant also has an indoor location, which is small but very nice, as confirmed by staff. The bar offers creative drinks, including seasonal "Fall Drinks" introduced by the bartender, Max, who is very knowledgeable and friendly. The food menu includes popular items like Barilla Eggrolls, which are highly recommended. For special occasions or casual outings, Tequila Rio remains a popular spot for Taco Tuesdays, great nachos, and spectacular drinks. Parking is convenient with plenty of open spaces close to the entrance. While service can be slow at times, the staff is friendly and apologetic, making the overall experience enjoyable.
