What Eric Arellano doesn't like about Cafe Rio Mexican Grill:
What a sorry excuse for Mexican food. This was my first visit. We ordered online a beef quesadilla and an enchilada style beef burro with hatch chili salsa on both.

The reviews for this restaurant are a bit mixed. Some customers were very disappointed with the food and service, citing issues like missing ingredients, poor customer service, and subpar flavors. Others, however, had positive experiences, praising the attention to detail in catering orders, the delicious homemade tortillas, and the friendly service. The restaurant seems to have a reputation for being busy but offering fast service and decently priced, tasty food, according to one review. Overall, while there are some negative comments, there are also customers who highly recommend the restaurant for its food and service.
