Rio Grande Tex-Mex Grill

We visited this place for dinner on a Monday night and they have dollar tacos on Monday.
They had plenty of staff however it took a little longer than normal to be served drinks and take our order. As the order arrived it was now 9 apparently they close at 10. I didn't know this until I noticed everyone was focusing on cleaning and sweeping and mopping as if it was a priority over serving us. We needed napkins and drink refills but we were basically ignored. The food was probably not worth a dollar. Tacos were small and over cooked in my opinion. I could have gotten better at taco bell. I also ordered a gordita and it was full of oil and welted lettuce. Again they seemed not to care. I probably will not visit this place again. There are way to many Mexican restaurants to accept service and food like this. Good luck if you want to take a chance.

First time here and it was pretty good. Very low key for lunch. Friendly staff, clean restaurant and restrooms, fast service. I was craving birria tacos but they also had $1 papusas so I got some to go for dinner. I really enjoyed the thick white sauce, salsa, and chips that came complementary. I went on a Thursday but maybe their specials change week to week. I’m usually not in this area so it was nice to find this lovely place.

I had the shrimp enchiladas and they were absolutely delicious! The cheese sauce blended perfectly with the shrimp, and the rice and beans on the side were full of flavor. I finished it off with a sopapilla for dessert, which was the perfect sweet touch. Great flavors all around and excellent service. Highly recommend Rio Grande Tex-Mex Grill!

They honestly have the best flavored carne asada (with the crispy grilled pieces in it) besides Blue Habanero. Papusa, Refried Beans, Margaritas can be good and strong depending on bartender! It's a good spot.

If you are anything like me, once you eat here you will never want to go to any other Mexican style restaurant again. All the others don't even compare (and we've been to a lot!) Everything even down to the rice and beans are amazing. I'v seriously never had Spanish rice that good. Very unassuming from the parking lot...but very clean inside, very nice servers and front staff. We usually get the lady who I think is owner/manager or something and she is a delight. We. LOVE. this. Place!! Oh and my wife says the margaritas are STRONG. Jeeze now I want to go!!!!

Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible inside and out as it's all level no steps.

Surprisingly good! Not a run-of-the-mill, out-of-the-can, fajita joint. The dishes are unique, ample, and definitely made by the abuela using her family's secret menu. Next time I'm in Bon Air or at Johnson Willis, I'll forget all those disgusting chain joints and head just a few blocks down to the Rio Grande.

Their steak tacos are to die for, best I’ve had in midlo/richmond. Their margaritas are amazing aswell and they have a great happy hour, although they don’t advertise the happy hour so you have to ask about it. Also their fajitas have the best meat I’ve ever had in fajitas.
