We took a group of 12 on a Saturday at lunch and they were very accommodating. Our waiter was very friendly and efficient. The tableside guacamole was delicious. Everyone was very happy with their food. We would recommend Rio for a group, or anytime for a great meal 🙌🏻
August 2025
The food is authentic and delicious. Service is with a smile, polite and delivered hot and fresh. It's not a chain with premeasured portions cooked identical by a line cook. They are willing to customize to your preferences. We have ways been completely satisfied with everything we have tried. If you're expecting flashy high end, this is not your spot. If you want a casual dining space with delicious food and great service, this is definitely the place to go. I highly...
