Rio Peruvian & Mexican restaurant

This is our new go to Mexican/peruvian restaurant! Delicious food well prepared and presented. They also have daily specials from 3/6 pm. I highly recommend this wonderful place.

Went for dinner, we sat outside because the music was a bit too loud inside. Very disappointed in the food. No enchilada on the menu. I asked the waitress and she had no clue if it was or wasn't. My husband ordered steak and shrimp, the steak looked like something we shouldn't be eating. I had a steak quesadilla, it was so bland I put hot sauce on it just to try to get some taste. The meat did not look like steak or hamburger and had absolutely no taste. Salsa and chips were just ok. Cute place but very disappointed.

THE FOOD WAS ALL THAT AND MORE

Great food (churrasco!), drinks, and atmosphere!

Love the food Fantastic.

Been few times and food taste really good but the service by some servers is poor. On a not busy time the server I got last was taking for ever just to bring 2 glasses of water. When I was ready to order she took for ever to time back, took order then got lost out of dinner floor to come back like 10 min later to say the food I ordered wasn’t on the many because missing principal ingredient. Order again like 20 min and not water yet. Then later bring the water and no straws nowhere around to ask and when walked around didn’t even took to table, she didn’t removed the first order from my account and put added the new one, then got lost again long when came back starter to check another table were waiting long while 3 tables with more people by my side arrived like 15 minutes after me and were attended before me. I was still waiting for straw and I had not napkins not silverware on table e either. She came finally with one order and left needing silverware for stake then waiting waiting and nothing. I said please and thank you and I was polite all time and my partner and I were waiting very patiently but she got lost somewhere out of floor long time and when appear didn’t had what we need yet. Then is there something that servers not even offer the receipt and looks like charging even the water. Found out the server let first order they didn’t have on the account before the $$69 for only 2people and only 2 orders with a drink and water from top and chips then not receipts offered. Something else is they want take plate when you still eating from you without asking. Why can’t wait for people clearly finished or leave already? Not all servers were same not trying to be a Karen but needed to say something after few times visiting and something happened.

the only thing missing is BIRRIA. The staff is all about providing you with an unforgettable experience. The food deserves a chefs kiss. BEST MARGARITAS IN TOWN!

Unbelievable place that I’m lucky to have visited in Grand Rapids! This place has a very unique take on Mexican food and a pleasing addition of Peruvian food makes the menu very dynamic and wholesome for anyone and everyone with various types of palettes! The food was incredible and the serving sizes are great! Ben the manager was very welcoming and made sure we were happy with everything from the minute we entered the door! A must visit restaurant in Grand Rapids!

Loved this place. Definitely a family-owned atmosphere. Lights could have been dimmer. The feeling like it was a takeout place was overwhelming because of the bright lights and open area. Although the ambience lighting wasn't there the decorations were amazing. The waiter and service team was amazing!! The food go there if not for anything else the food and service!! TOP of it's class
