Famous Cafe Rio Fan Favorites
Enchilada Style Burrito
Say hello to the enchilada-style Burrito. If you didn’t bring a knife and fork, that’s ok. We’ve got one for you. You’ll need it. A fresh, homemade tortilla is packed full with black or pinto beans, cilantro-lime rice, and your choice of protein. Then, we smother it with cheese and one of our signature sauces and bake it to perfection. Your life will never be the same! #TheObsessionIsReal #CafeRio
Sweet Pork Barbacoa
Welcome to the Home of the Original Sweet Pork Barbacoa! It’s quite possible our Sweet Pork could be outlawed for being too addictive. This delightful goodness is slow-simmered for hours in our secret spices until ready to tempt your taste buds. Make sure to stop by and try out this signature taste that made us famous! #TheObsessionIsReal #CafeRio
Creamy Tomatillo Dressing
It’s been said that our Creamy Tomatillo Dressing should be its own food group. Sure it’s great on our salads, but people love them on our tacos, quesadillas, burritos, chips, and even by the spoonful. Our Creamy Tomatillo is made from tomatillos, jalapenos, salsa fresca, cilantro, and a blend of flavor-packed spices. #TheObsessionIsReal #CafeRio
Chips & Queso
We know. Hot melted cheese is totally awesome. But our queso is made even more awesome by our mix of Mexican peppers and secret spices. Better get extra chips! #TheObsessionIsReal #CafeRio
Shredded Chicken Salad
Dive into this life-changing bowl of deliciousness! A fresh, hot-off-the-comal tortilla, black or pinto beans, cilantro-lime rice, and our shredded chicken are all nestled in a bowl of freshly chopped romaine, pico de gallo, guacamole and topped with our creamy tomatillo dressing or cilantro lime vinaigrette. #TheObsessionIsReal #CafeRio

The food had clearly been out for a long time and tasted like it- steak tasted and smelled like old fish and the guac was brown. The menu said nachos cost $11.58 and yet we were charged over $13. When I asked about the daily entree specials, I was told those no longer exist and they do “taco Tuesday” now. The restaurant was disgusting despite my family being the only people in the building ordering food (others ended up in line behind us). Trash overflowing, tables sticky and covered in food. Oh and the kicker…. STYROFOAM cups for water. Who uses Styrofoam clearly knowing the environmental implications?? I’ve uploaded pictures of what a $29 meal at Cafe Rio gets you and the wonderful ambiance you can expect. GROSS. DON’T COME HERE.

Great experience overall. Our family was visiting the state and this was the perfect stop. The food was hit and fresh, and a staff member gave us a free drink after we had forgotten to get one. Very clean and nice.

First time here, definitely a win. Shredded pulled chicken taco plate was absolutely fire!! Some places use funky chicken thigh meat for tacos but not here!! I am sooo pleased. And the tacos are HUGE. Mom and I were able to share the taco plate just fine. We’ll be back!

The place was pretty good. I got soup. It was incredibly delicious but quite small. I’m looking forward to trying out their burritos, which is their main food option. I just wasn’t that hungry.

This place is so filthy and needs to be deep cleaned! Tabletops and trays were sticky. The glass inside the store is covered with smears and drips of who knows what. The walls, floors and surfaces of this place are covered in drips, bits of food stuff, and there are cob webs in all the corners. The door handles are just straight up nasty. If this is what the seating area looks like that the public sees, I’m scared of what the kitchen and serving areas look like.

I was craving this place. It had been a long time since I’ve eaten there. It was dirty. The tables and counters were gross. The trash was overflowing and the food was mediocre. The staff was friendly though maybe just two busy

I really could like this restaurant. The food is really tasty. However, portions are inconsistent. I’m wondering if they ever clean. The place is filthy. The tables don’t sit level, and the chairs are uncomfortable. It’s definitely not cheap, so I would expect better. I wouldn’t try the Horchata if you paid me. The dispenser doesn’t look like it’s ever been cleaned.
