Reviews
The service at this location is phenomenal. The staff are all super friendly and frequently remember my order. I always order a taco salad; the portion is extremely large and very filling. The salad bowl is the ultimate form of the burrito bowl; this Cafe Rio does not skimp on any ingredients and makes sure you will be full after you meal. Each salad honestly lasts me two meals especially if you include every ingredient option. If you want a satisfying meal worth the cost, check out this location! Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options can be made out of every one of the menu items. Kid-friendliness: Quesadillas and taco kids meals! Parking: In a shopping center with plenty of free parking. Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair parking is very close to store entrance.
Oredered online enchilda style with red sauce. Employee used green sauce. I didn'nt realize until too late and didn't want to deal with them.Food: 5/5
Wow, did they mess up our order. My son's birthday. He wanted a bean burrito with chicken. That's what I ordered. No rice. Instead we got a pork burrito, double rice, no beans. The lid showed the correct order so someone really screwed this one up. This isn't the first time. It's just always a mystery what will actually be in your tortilla at this location.
Pleasantly surprised with my grub hub order from cafe rio! Order was right, food was warm, and delivery was on time. Love their quesadilla and queso!!
There are many options as you can build the items yourself, choosing from burritos, tacos, enchiladas, salads, tostadas, quesadillas, and nachos. In addition to rice, beans, pico de gallo, sour cream, cheese, lettuce, guacamole, and queso, there are four levels of sauce heat: mild, medium, hot, even hotter. Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options as you build the items yourself.
UPDATED: Give me a a minute to tell a story. I've went to this Cafe Rio dozens of times, and up to a couple months ago, it was a disaster! But then, something magical happened. I walked in, and I treated with the utmost care, respect, and experience. I don't know what the management did, but it worked. Now, this Cafe Rio is exceptional. I fully recommending going to this location, and I publicly express my thanks to this management. Well done! Update: Ahhhh, but I though things would change for good. But no, they are back to their old ways. The staff was unfortunately slow, food was literally being dropped on the floor, and it took me 45 minutes to get a couple of sides. The app was not working, although they advertised it throughout the entire place, and people were in unbelief at the unsatisfactory service. This needs to improve, again, for good. This location WILL CLOSE IF THIS SERVICE CONTINUES. Management, your employees did not seem guided. Do you have someone that needs to step up and take a leadership role? Update #3: But their pickup is still great!
I love Cafe Rio!!! I always order the Vegetarian Tostada; double beans and rice. And add guac and all the veggies. This time, I also ordered chip, guac, salsa. You get alot of food here. Worth your money and the food is good!
BiriDiana & Rosa are great staff Always provide great customer service and store is kept clean Piña Colada is a yummy drink - we miss itFood: 5/5
Great staff! The queso was AMAAAAZING! Taco Tues is a good day! Handmade drinks!Food: 4/5
I don’t understand all the vitriol toward my beloved Cafe Rio. Is it true that there is one employee here that holds up lines at the register? Maybe. Is it also true that Cafe Rio makes the best mixes of lettuce, beans, rice, salsa, guacamole and tortillas? Resounding yes. Order ahead. Out of the many, many times I have ordered ahead, there has been literally ONE time when my order wasn’t ready ahead of time. And it’s always excellent. Get the sweet peak quesadilla. Mmmmmm.
