I have wanted to visit El Rio Grande for years and I am so happy I did! I was impressed with the decor and the welcome from the host. The food was amazing and our waitress, Erica, took the time to offer suggestions and really craft our experience. Not only was the food delicious, it was bountiful! I ordered vegetable fajitas and my son ordered 3 tacos. We left with full stomachs and enough food for 3-5 more meals. We only ordered 2 dishes and cheese dip to go with our complimentary chips and salsa. El Rio Grande is a 10 out of 10 and our family looks forward to coming back. Kudos to all the staff for being highly attentive to customer service and delivering a quality experience.

Absolutely had the best service I’ve ever seen at a Mexican restaurant. They were super attentive, and extremely friendly – especially for closing time on a Sunday night.

We had a party of 9 that ate here. The service was great, and the food was good. The only complaint that I heard from the group was that the shrimp were overcooked. I feel it was one of the better Mexican restaurants I have eaten at lately.

I forgot to take pictures until we were almost done but I did take a few things. They have FLAN!!!! it is sooooo good! Busy but not busy enough we didn’t get outstanding service! Margaritas were very good also! Guacamole is also OUTSTANDING!!!!

Simply put those were the best damn nachos I’ve ever had. I hate myself for eating all of pile of delectable fare but couldn’t stop until gone. Kudos to you El Rio for your exemplary (a shame to call it an) appetizer. It’s a meal all by itself.
