We went to Rio Rata for food after a LOOONG day on the black river. The staff was amazing and super nice, the food was fantastic, and the value of what you get for what you pay is astounding. Next time I'm in lesterville, I'm making sure I stop at this great place! (Try the cheese curds, they're in a class by themselves!)

We went here after running from a nearby cabin rental (Hidden Meadows). We weren't looking to stay at a motel, but this place is very clean and the cabins we had rented were infested.The rooms at Rio Rata seem to be newly remodeled. They were very clean and I can't speak any higher of the woman running the place. We were looking for a place last minute as we couldn't stay at the last place. The restaurant was only open 3 days and we didn't get to try it but the woman did bring us some free cheesecake pudding. It was great.The only thing I would suggest putting money in is some new windows. I could hear the very little road noise there was. Thank you for being soooooo hospitable to us when we were desperate for a place to stay.

Based on prior reviews, I was hoping for a great experience and great Mexican food. Instead, it was pretty bad..both with the food and service. When my family of four arrived over Labor Day weekend for dinner, we were the third table with customers. The rest of the tables were empty. After a few minutes of waiting with no menus, my husband took two menus off a nearby table. We waited for a total of about 10 minutes before the waitress came by. We put in drink orders (including two margaritas) and an appetizer order for chips and three dips (beans, queso and guacamole).

The food was surprising good. From the cook to the taste, my wife had the burrito that was glazed with cheese ans I had a hamburger very well cook. The crunchiness of the bacon ans the fries were perfect. Very good for travelera and families after activities in the parks around. Plenty tables and a bar with enough TVs to expende the time watching sports and drinking your beer.

Friendly and quick service, great atmosphere and kid friendly. We had a large group with kids and came in to watch the Blues game. They couldn't have been nicer and food was great.
