Food Stands in New Buffalo, MI

“Rios Mexican Grill is one of those hidden gems you’re so happy to stumble upon on a nice summer day. It’s essentially a roadside taco stand, but don’t let that fool you - the food is incredibly fresh and full of flavor. It feels very local and family-run, which adds to the charm.

We visited last August during a family trip, and the fact that my mom, who usually avoids roadside food spots, was the one who recommended it says everything. We were honestly shocked (in the best way).

Ordering is simple: you place your order, get a number, and wait for your food. There are benches available for seating, though no bathrooms, so it’s good to plan accordingly.

We ordered a variety of items - tacos, burritos, quesadillas, chips with salsa, and Jarritos, and were happy with everything. The portions were generous, the ingredients tasted fresh, and everything was well-prepared. I even enjoyed some leftovers the next day!

If you’re looking for delicious, no-frills Mexican food from a local spot, Rios Mexican Grill is definitely worth checking out.“
