Very mediocre Mexican restaurant. Had to ask for hot sauce twice, waiter rarely came around, hardly any alcohol in the margaritas, and the food was bland. The interior was pretty cool. About the only interesting point about this place.

Water was gross, table was falling apart, and food was not good. Chips and salsa were good but that’s about it

Good restaurant. 4 star only because a 5 would have blown us away. We don't find 5's everyday!

We are new to the area, so we're getting to know the restaurants around us. We heard good things about El Rio, so we gave it a try. Whenever we try a new Mexican food place, we get the fajitas so we can compare to other places. El Rio didn't disappoint. In fact, they win as the best fajitas place around this area. We've come back a couple times. They are consistent and the food tasted the same every time.

The food, service, and atmosphere here are as good as I've had at a Mexican restaurant. The complimentary chips and salsa and the loaded nachos were excellent. They made a molcajete specially for me...it was fabulous. Prices are good and they keep the place clean and authentic looking. I wouldn't think twice about going again. They also have a great selection of tequila, if you're a connoisseur
Yummy food, good service. My husband had the Durango and thought it was the best 👌

Fun decor with hand painted art and unique lighting. (giant flower-like chandeliers)
The place was mostly empty when we went (3pm on a wednesday) We were seated immediately, and was given excellent attention from our waiter.
The food was excellent, fresh looking food and the food was played with care. I had the fajitas and it was both sizzling and delicious. The lunch portions are available all day long (for a $2 up charge outside lunch hours) which provide a nice sized portion for those not wanting a heap of food.
My only complaint was with the guacamole that was served with the chips. It didn't have the fresh green glow I was expecting, but rather a more dull faded green instead. Still tasted ok, but not that Lime-fresh we were expecting.
You pay at the front counter where you can purchase small candies (this was a hit with the kiddos)
If you are in the area and hungry (A little or a lot) then give this place a shot.

Excellent all around. The food was only surpassed by the service.
