Visited Rio for the first and probably last time. We met up with family who were already there. The waiter took our drink order but didn't bring more chips for the table then our when he brought our drinks. We didn't see him much, even though he had only one or two other tables. After a prolonged wait, our food arrived. It was all about room temperature, so it had been sitting in the window for some time. I had an enchilada and flautas with the usual beans and rice. In addition to being cold, everything was pretty flavorless, and all the meals on the table looked as if they'd been plated by someone who didn't know how to make them look appetizing or just didn't care. The waiter brought the check 10-15 minutes after we were all done eating and let it sit on the table, ready to be paid, for another 10-15 minutes, obliviously rolling utensils in paper napkins. Definitely a disappointing experience.
The food is consistently great! I like that I can usually get right in and sit down. The staff is super friendly and great service.
I used to love their tacos, but today while eating I found half of what looks like plastic tie in my steak taco! Absolutely disgusting. Never going back again.

Cowboy Burrito use to be awesome food is flavorful but for $23.00 I do not recommend Rio few years ago yes I understand inflation but for the price and size your better off going to Chipotle or qubdoba you get your money's worth out of them

I recently went to this place after 5 years. Still as good as last time. My one complaint is if someone is ordering a giant burrito, they should get more than a squirt of sour cream. Especially because the burrito is damn near $20. Our waitress also had somewhat of an attitude. Seemed like we were annoying her & i really didn't understand that. We were kind & polite.

Me and the buddy stopped there for dinner. I ordered a simple fajita quesadilla I wasn’t really hungry so I only ate one piece and took the rest home. After I get home, I got hungry and started eating then found metal wire in my quesadilla and chipped my tooth. HOW DOES METAL WIRE GET IN THE FOOD?!?! Are you serious. I tried calling you guys but no one picked up. I just wanted to let you know somehow there’s metal wire in peoples food.

Super friendly staff, reasonably priced options. My husband and I ordered the chicken and steak fajitas for two and all of it, from the meat to the beans and side of guacamole were absolutely delicious!!! Highly recommend!!!

4 stars for everything except value. I'd say value is about a 2. Wife and I will usually get an entree each and 20oz margaritas. The margaritas are as much as the entrees. Typical bill is around $80. It used to be be much cheaper and a fair value, now it is grossly overpriced for what it is. I've found for about the same price, Longhorn Steakhouse is a much better value and 3 times the quality of food.

Margaritas were excellent. As well as the atmosphere and waitstaff. A bit on the expensive side for Mexican food.
