Famous Cafe Rio Fan Favorites
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 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
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

I was kicked out of the house for a bit so my wife could concentrate on work because I’m a distraction. I always have a hard time deciding on what to eat, especially with other people. Me and my cousin were looking for places for like a half hour before deciding to just pick somewhere close. This place is bomb, I got the sweet pork barbacoa burrito. You get quite a bit of food for the price ($17 with drink). It’s in the style of pieology or chipotle where you pick the ingredients as you walk down the counter, so I’d imagine the taste is going to be consistent every time you come. The staff is friendly and the horchata is surprisingly good. 5⭐️ highly recommend

Food is good,fresh, and amazing. By the time we placed our order and sat down was quick and that’s where the problem started all the booths were filthy! There was a spilled drink under one of the booth and it sat there the whole time we were there. The long bench had food on it as well. There was literally no place to sit. Hopefully next time we come they raise the standard on cleanliness. I gave them a strong 3 star customer service and food was great

When looking up “food near me” this place popped up. The reviews seemed okay, but the pictures of the food are what sold me. As soon as we arrived we were deflated to see it was a Subway-like experience where you choose your entree, your type of meat, sauce etcetera.

I’ve had an incredible and amazing experience eating at this place three time already and after tasting it I would recommend it for everyone who likes Mexican food , fyi it’s way better than chipotle . Cynthia is too competent in her job where she attains a great customer service management and too friendly with customers and always offer help.

Only gave two stars for atmosphere because they were cleaning up the place.. I’ve been here several times to pick up mobile orders and they will literally. Let you stand there for a minute before the actually address you to see if you hear for pickup order or if you need anything. If you’re ordering food to go your order might be late or may even be reassigned because of how long it takes for them to fulfill or help. Today the only at 3 customers in line to order their food.

Café Rio’s always delicious. Ok, maybe not always. Sometimes, the rice is hard, but the sweet barbacoa is always on point. And maybe sometimes the servers may not be the nicest, but it ain’t gonna stop me from going back.

Best burritos in Fresno. Get the steak burrito with black beans rice and cheese, enchilada style. It’s burrito perfection!

We ordered the steak salad bowls and it did not disappoint! The only reason why I did not give it 5 stars is because it is my first time ordering and we only ordered one item from their menu and we would like to order more. The salad was delicious. It was a good portion. It included rice, your choice of beans, greens, tortilla strips, a soft flour tortilla bowl, pico de gallo, and such a delicious creama cilantro dressing. Your choice of protein. We chose steak, great flavor!

I have tried Cafe Rio twice. The first time I tried the enchiladas but that wasnt what brought me back. I’ve gone back a couple of times for their delicious homemade flour tortillas and their guacamole, chips and salsa. The guacamole is pretty darn good but it turns brown fast so will eat it in one sitting only.
