Best Mexican food in Baton Rouge, and in my opinion better than Houston! They are actually baked and melted with cheese to perfection!!!

Drinks are A-1 best even the house margaritas are top! If you’re hungry don’t come here!! Not one Mexican in site all and u can tell based on the taste of menu!!!

The service was AWFUL. The food was 2/10 at best with little to no flavor. The servers, as well as the owners, were argumentative and rude. My partner had not touched his meal throughout our time there and when we asked if it could be removed from our receipt, we were met with contempt and insults from the wait staff and owners. After going back and forth it was finally taken off but we will NEVER be back. It's not worth the money, time, nor effort. HARD pass.

Great family owned business, food is always good. Raul (owner) always comes out to talk. If your real lucky his dad comes around to make you smile. The supreme nachos are sooo good.

Been coming here for years. Love that Summer Special. If I do go to a different Mexican restaurant in town, I always wish that I would've come to El Rio Grande instead. Even when it's busy, like it was the other night, the food is yummy like it always is, and I never feel neglected. El Rio Grande is the kind of place that you can just sit around after you eat and visit with whomever you are with. I looks like you want it too. Great place for food, beer, and friends.
In Baton Rouge, if a restaurant doesn’t have good food, it simply won’t last. El Rio Grande has stood the test of time for over 60 years because the food is great, fresh and authentic! And Raul and his family and staff are authentic as their food! If you like real Mexican food, enjoy a meal at El Rio Grande. Great food, friendly staff, unique and casual atmosphere!

The food was cold once I got home and I stay less than 15 minutes away. Basic could have went to taco bell, but service was decent.
