24 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Rio Rancho

“great food enjoyed eating breakfast there 😋 thank you“

“My granddaughter and I stopped in the drive through on Unser today around 3:45. It was after a few errands and I know I was getting irritable. We were greeted through the speaker with amazing customer service. At the window after paying, my granddaughter mentioned that she really liked his positivity. He had us pull around to bring out our food and my granddaughter wanted me to tell him how we appreciate his attitude and energy. He brought our food out quickly and continued to exude friendly and cheerful service. He provided the best service and attitude I’ve received from an employee at any business that I can ever recall. We thought we’d use Facebook to show our appreciation and hope he gets recognition from his manager. The receipt showed the name Zachary. Thanks again, Zachary!!“

“Such a lovely dining experience! When I needed to change my daughter, she was incredibly kind and thoughtful, watching the door so we could have privacy. It’s these small acts of courtesy that make such a difference. Thank you, Angela, for your warmth and hospitality!“

“Ordered the Chicken tenders box. The coleslaw was amazing, the tenders were fresh and juicy. Lemonade was also good. It was just loud in there, you do have to get your own napkins and plastic ware. It felt crowded around the fountain drink area, staff was a ok. I just had a greeting from cashier and another employee did ask if we were good. First time here, food was great, but I think the atmosphere was just too loud for me. Prices was reasonable. My son and I dined in for 21$“

“Returning customer stopped going way before the pandemic hit due to poor service and missing items. Ordered Pick up service on a Saturday dinner rush. The food was ready and perfect, customer service excellent. Kudos to the workers.“

“Great Burgers 🍔 and great staff.“

“Mariah the Asst. Manager Mariah and her 2 othe remployees Zoey and Ivan, provided the best quality of service. After a long day of adventures we could not have asked for a better place to stop for fast food. Exceptional service, hands down. A must stop.“

“After having a terrible experience at the Long John Silver’s on Rio Rancho Boulevard, I decided to stop at the Popeyes on Southern—and I’m so glad I did!

From the moment I walked in, Sage and the entire team completely turned my day around. Everyone was welcoming, patient, respectful, and genuinely kind. They treated me with professionalism and made me feel like a valued customer. The service was fast, my order was correct, and the food was fresh and delicious.

What stood out the most was the positive attitude of the entire staff. After the way I had just been treated elsewhere, their kindness and excellent customer service meant more than they probably realized. It’s refreshing to see a team that truly cares about their customers and works together to create such a welcoming atmosphere.

Thank you, Sage, and the entire Popeyes team on Southern, for restoring my faith in great customer service. You turned a very frustrating day into a much better one, and I truly appreciate it. I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend this location to anyone looking for friendly service and a great meal!“

“We're traveling & come from the Midwest, so we haven't had Jack in the Box before. It was delicious! Even our kids rated it a 10 out of 10. Hoping to visit another one before we head back home.“

“Took my boy for his birthday breakfast. The morning crew treated him so well… bringing out some fun Whataburger swag. Thank you for your kindness! (And he really enjoyed the pancake platter!)“

“The personnel here are very attentive and knowledgeable“

“My husband and I stopped in after not being to a Pizza Hut in quite some time. We weren’t sure what to expect, but gave it a shot.
We were next door due to an issue with our truck.
We had our dog with us and we were super hungry so we went in and spoke with Mark at the front.
No joke, Mark was amazing! I don’t like stringy cheese so my husband got a pizza and Mark made some awesome recommendations for me personally. He was so on point he even asked if the seasoning would be to my liking, and it was so perfect! Here I thought I was just gonna get some bread sticks and he totally sold us on the veggie pasta. He was kind to our dog and was very respectful and able to relate to us.
I gotta say It was the best part of our long day. We felt relaxed and didn’t wait too long at all.
We had such a hard time and car trouble isnt fun. We really enjoyed our food and we will come back again.
Other employees were on it with keeping the “hut” clean and made my order exactly how Mark had described. Mark made sure they understood and didn’t put shredded cheese on my pasta and hooked up the veggies.
Very knowledgeable and helpful crew you guys have over there!
Thank you for helping me with my new favorite pasta! Mark is a keeper!“

“Easily my most favorite Del Taco in the city! It's always clean and quick, the size and location almost give the feel of a hidden gem.

It seems like everytime I go I get Coleen helping me and I wouldn't have it any other way! She is kind, efficient and always ensures my order is correct and exactly what I wanted!

I can already tell I'll be coming back often enough to call it a habit.“

“The amount of respect and level of service I got here was a great experience nice place to sit down and eat food was delicious tried the bacon Burgur with cheese curds and the fresh root beer was very sweet never tasted that in that way will be coming back again sometime :)“

“The Big Kahuna is the best steak and cheese but I have found so far since I left Philadelphia. I love it without peppers and jalapeños. It is delicious.“

“The place wasn't busy yet, but the employees were busy doing their stuff for the drive up. My server was really nice and gracious. Place was clean which is nice.
The food was delicious as usual. Fries crispy. Chicken nuggets crispy but moist. This place is really great.“

“I stop by this location on Rio Rancho Boulevard fairly often when I need something quick, and they consistently do a good job. The drive-thru line usually moves at a steady pace, even during the busy lunch rush, and the staff at the window are always polite and friendly. My order is almost always accurate, the food is hot, and they actually remember to put the hot sauce packets in the bag. It is a clean, well-managed location that is great for a fast bite when you are on the move around Rio Rancho.“

“I love this McDonald's especially because they hire special needs people and they do an amazing job I am proud to say I know an employee there who is hard working,kind, 🤓 smart J you rock kiddo keep up the amazing work 👍“

“It was super delicious best meal. I've had I a long time“

“Abbygale made my sandwich today, and she was incredibly kind. She didn’t just make my food—she took the time to have a genuine conversation with me, and it made my day. The restaurant was also very clean and welcoming. Customer service like that really stands out.“

“​My food was fresh and delicious! The woman who took my order at the counter, Georgia, was professional and courteous. Thank you, Georgia, for the positive experience!

​After I received my meal, the manager went around to check in with everyone in the dining room to ensure everything was up to standard. It was an awesome experience. Thank you!“

“I eat at Whataburger a LOT, as a native Texan, it's just comfort food. I eat at pretty much every Whataburger in town...

...but THIS Whataburger is the BEST!

It's always clean, service is always excellent, and the Michael (I believe he's the manager) is always very friendly, nice and takes care of things.

As a business owner, I recognize good leadership..clearly this location has excellent leadership. The staff are all in good spirits all the time and everything is done wonderfully.

Bottom line, somebody give these people a raise!“

“My family was in town for a burial of our loved one. We stopped at Pizza Hut after. There was 20 plus of us. The waitress, Kelly, was very accommodating for all of us. She went above and beyond to meet our thirsty requests and arranged the dinner room to fit us all so we could sit together. Our pizza was delicious and fast. Strongly recommend“
