Went for my grandsons 21 birthday and my other grandsons girlfriends birthday. We have done mexican restaurants over the years to celebrate with the big hat and singing ..This place shocked all of us by smashing a napkin full of whipped cream in their faces when done..It got all down my grandsons shirt and shorts and my future grandaughter had just had her lashes done and hair colored for her birthday and that cream was smazhed into her face getting all into her lashes and hair. So our fun night out to go birthday shopping ended with everybody mad and going home to get showers to get that sticky crap off . NEVER will any of us go there again. Food not that great anyway since the chips they use under the nacho supreme were clearly leftovers tasting stale..hopefully not off somebody elses plate before me but who knows ..just eat there at your own risk and if you want to celebrate and have a fun birthday..dont go here...they will ruin it .

This place fantastic. The carnitas tacos are the best I’ve had. The portions are big AND the food high quality. The staff is super good.

seasoned just right... cheese and salsa was delicious 😋. Very attentive servers and it looks better on the inside than the tinted windows from the outside lead you to believe. Give them a try!

Best Mexican restaurant in the area in my opinion.

Went for taco Tuesday and to be honest for the price you can't beat the good food. The beef is actually seasoned and flavorful unlike most Mexican restaurants in the area. Also the shredded chicken tacos are delicious and flavorful and definitely not dry either which is the most surprising. All in all for taco Tuesday this is one of the best places in Roanoke.

I was really impressed by El Rio's menu and prices! The dish I had , Cazuelon?, was awesome with steak, chicken, shrimp, rice, beans... all for under $14! Tons of food and cooked right.

I went on taco Tuesday. The taste of the food was good but they have reduced the amount of filling in the tacos (the used to be stuffed) and the went up on the price. Service was ok but not fantastic. I would go again if I am in the area but will not go out of my way.
