Cafe Rio Fresh Modern Mexican offers a mixed experience. Some customers find the food just okay, while others love it and call it the nicest Cafe Rio in Salt Lake, worth the drive. The staff speaks both Spanish and English, and the portions are generous—some reviewers mention how the lady making their bowl really loaded it up. While the Saturday special caused a slight delay in the past, the overall love for Cafe Rio remains strong.
Recent changes include a touch of remodeling to accommodate pick-up orders, with stickers now labeling each dish for clarity. Utensils are also included in to-go bags. Prices have gone up, and portions like the side of beans or niño quesadillas are smaller, though the quesadillas now come with an orange slice. Some customers note occasional mistakes, like missing pico de Gallo or dressing, but the food is still really good. The sweet pork salad disappointed one diner with a hard, cold tortilla, but others recommend taking advantage of daily deals and reward points for free food. The parking situation remains stress-free, and the place is kid-friendly with cheap quesadillas.
