I love Tio’s! Whether meeting friends and colleagues for lunch (or happy hour! The best sangria in town!) or enjoying a meal with family I can always count on delicious food, friendly service, and a lively atmosphere.
June 2025
The food is great!
WARNING: the parking lot is MOSTLY for Cornell Arms apartments next door. Tio's put up a VERY strange sign that could make you think the whole lot is theirs. IT IS NOT. You will be TOWED if their VERY FEW spaces are full and you try to park elsewhere in the same lot. BE SURE to read the REAL signs that say Cornell Arms Parking ONLY if you expect to find your car where you left it. Tow trucks come QUICKLY. Enjoy the good food and good luck parking.

I have always thought Tio's was pretty enjoyable. It's the right combination reasonably-priced, pretty good food, and the restaurant not trying too hard to have an obnoxiously trendy atmosphere.
