I love the Rio grande Cafe. The new location is very nice and open. Good covid precautions by all staff. The recipes are the same as the old location. Love the chips and salsa and the guacamole is wonderful. My party had shrimp enchiladas beef flautas and the Taco roco all were very tasty and large portions.

Great staff and service was so attentive. The chips and salsa were fresh and had a great tomato flavor along with the queso blanco it was an amazing start to dinner. The entrees were well portioned and well balanced. Such a tasty dinner and wonderful time. They also had great distancing, clean and sanitizer available.

The new location is great and the food is fantastic as always! Love Rio Grande! Always get the Number Seven Pork Smothered! Best Chips and Salsa in town!

They moved! I must admit, I loved the old train station location but apparently last year's earthquake forced them to leave that location.The new location trades the train station vibe for very nice old fire station vibe. Very clean, nice mix of old an modern and the remembered to bring the "taco lady"!Food was very good and plenty of it! The salsa was a good as I remember it being... nice and fresh!We'll definitely go back!

This was my first time at this restaurant, I never tried the old location. I ordered the shrimp enchilada and it was delicious. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and the sauce had a great flavor. The service was also wonderful. I will definitely return.

No longer here. Drove a long way to find it and found Rio there instead. There is still one sign that says porcupine.

I love porcupine. I always leave here satisfied. The nachos and artichoke dip are my go too's. I love their soups too. Friendly staff and a good atmosphere.

Really good. Nothing too special to mention though. Might try again another time in town. A bit pricy too.
Bob K.

Not bad, not great. Server was friendly. Everything seemed a bit slow. Took awhile to order. To get drinks. To order food. To get the food. And so on.The food itself was great, so hoping this was just a fluke and normally the service is just as good.

Where's my creamy chicken noodle?! Wah!!! When it's cold (or hot!) I wanna warm up with the most delicious creamy chicken noodle to hit the town. Is this a seasonal item or what? Beer is great. Breakfast is great. Fish tacos are excellent.Nachos are eh. Salads are great. Ahi salad is excellent -order the small/regular as it's HUGE!! Oktoberfest out in the patio is a must. Beer and sunshine. What more could you ask for?
