The Barbacoa here is really good. The tamales were a little bit dry but still had good flavor. I really enjoy their salsa flavors. The employees there were very friendly and readily help out their customers. The only drawback is that the food is a little bit more expensive than I'd like, but it is still worth it.

I got the 1lb of barbacoa and 1 dz pork tamales, and both had very good flavor. The only thing that stopped it from getting 5 stars was the tamales. They were a little on the dry side. The meat to masa was a good ratio. Definitely would eat again. Atmosphere was good, the downfall was the AC being out and standing in line at 90°F on the thermostat was not comfortable. The place was clean just needs some TLC in the beautification department.

Love this place! Barbacoa is delicious, tamales are great. Not a big menudo eater, but my father-in-law who is 99 yrs. old loves the menudo from here. Only place he'll eat it from. Highly recommend Rios

Best barbacoa and tamales in town! Barbacoa is not greasy and has perfect seasoning. Tortillas are thin and tasty. Tamales are great ratio of pork to masa and full of flavor
