The best thing about this restaurant is the view.

Service was slow and terrible! My friend and I waited for a long time to be attended even after when our order was taken. Our drinks never arrived to the table! We also requested for our table to be cleaned and that never happened.

Nice concept in theory— tacos by the up and coming riverfront of downtown Yonkers, beautiful sunset views of the city skyline— however, I do not recommend coming here if you’re seeking better service and tastier food. The food lacked flavor— the guacamole needed help (even a little more salt would do it better), and the service was some of the worst I’ve experienced in Westchester. Upon entering the restaurant, we stood at the entrance without any acknowledgement or orientation around how the table service worked. Five minutes past before I finally spoke with the bartender inquiring if we seat ourselves, to which she replied “yeah go ahead.” Found ourselves a table and waited for about 15 minutes with no service, no acknowledgement and not even provision of water. I went back inside to try to contact a server when the server finally did acknowledge me and told me to “take menus to the table” myself and that he’d take our order momentarily… Not to mention that I witnessed this same server greet the table next to us upon their seating and bring them waters… talk about poor hospitality! Will most likely never return.

I had the chicken tacos along with chips and guacamole, and I must say, they were a complete disappointment. The chicken was bland and utterly flavorless, and the flour tortillas were far from fresh, tasting as if they had simply been microwaved. I do not recommend these tacos unless you're truly desperate.

As for the guacamole and chips, they were the worst I've ever encountered. The guacamole was poorly mixed, with tomatoes just thrown in after the fact, clearly indicating it came from a pre-packaged source. The chips were obviously store-bought and lacked the freshness you'd expect from a proper taco place. I firmly advise against choosing this restaurant.

My friends who dined with me shared the same grievances about their tacos. We all unanimously decided that this is not a place we would ever return to.

Steak tacos were good
Nachos were ok they had very little meat on them but had so many other toppings it made up for it
I wouldn't order the chicken tacos from here again. 😕

The food here actually surprised me a lot ! I've been living in Yonkers for about a year and have never bother to walk in but I'm glad I did! The view next to pier is amazing and refreshing especially on a summer day.

The shrimp tacos were amazing. The food is mexican/ seafood cuisine inspired. There's good beer and drink options.I would definitely come back here to eat.

Nice place to relax and enjoy a few drinks. The bartender 💎 is friendly, skilled and makes the experience that much better.

Great Hidden Gem! Employees here work efficiently and respectfully. The servers provided attentive service in a clean environment. Every non-sweet option we sampled was superb, looked professional and matched well. Quality food and helpful service. We plan to return!

Came to TaqueRio on a Thursday night for a drink and Diamond was behind the bar! She was super attentive and sweet. I had a passion fruit margarita and some delicious nachos! I’m so glad I came here. The atmosphere was so fun! Had a great time! Will be back.
