★★★★★ 5.0 Yanitza Ricardo · Nov 2025

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars I visited Café Rio this past Wednesday after going to Trader Joe’s, and I had an excellent experience. I love Mexican food, and when I saw Café Rio right in front of me, I decided to give it a try ,and it was definitely the right choice! The food was delicious, everything was super fresh, and the portions were very generous — more than enough for one person. The salad was especially amazing: fresh, crisp, and full of flavor. The atmosphere was great, with good music, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. They explained everything clearly, guided us through the menu, and you could tell they were enjoying their shift. I went with my family, and we had a really lovely time. I will definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

Decent food and drink options. Good on portion size as well

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Shayla Martin · Feb 2026

I made a pick up order and everything was wrong and sadly I didn’t notice until I got home and unpacked everything. I ordered all corn tortillas with cheese (one taco then one salad) and all the tortillas were flour, no cheese on them. My salad had pulled chicken when i paid extra for fire grilled and there were pinto beans instead of black beans and the corn salsa I ordered was nowhere to be found. Totally disappointed all around. Offered one extra star because the cashier gave me a free drink because we had to wait (for my wrong meal to be ready smh).

Good quick serve tex mex food like Chipotle and Qdoba. They use quality ingredients, but my wife thought they were 3 stars, so there you go. I also thought their prices were higher compared to the competition. Do give them a try and see for yourself!

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 wayne gordon · Nov 2025

This establishment has really taken a nose dive in the last few years. The portion size has gotten skimpy and the quality has deterated. Ordered a grilled chicken salad and chips with queso. The chicken was hard, dry and burned. The queso was curdled and watery. The guacamole was brown. This used to be one of my favorite places for carry out but I will not be returning after tonight's experience.
