We were there with 20 people for a 75th birthday. The staff was excellent. Great job. Every single food plate was 5 stars. Ceviche, enchiladas, tacos, fajitas everything. Service was excellent. Thank you so much 💓 💗 💛

First time here, just saw it on Google Maps. Several boxes checked immediately: smelled good when we entered, chips were warm and crisp, salsa was delicious. We liked our very gregarious and well-informed server. Large menu, many choices. We ordered carne asada steak and chicken mole enchiladas. I'm on a personal mission to try the mole wherever I can find it, and this was OUTSTANDING! Carne asada was also good. Music was nice, didn't have to shout over it, ambiance was pleasing. We'll be back in a hot minute. 4 stars because we have to come back and try more items. Try it!

Not very busy here on this day. The bartender was our server. He did an outstanding job. Food was alright. It definitely was not bad, but it is not my type of flavors here, but the closest to what I am looking for on the east side of town. Restaurant was clean. Overall a good experience just not my type of flavoring for Mexican food. Beans and Rice were good, green chilie sauce ove burrito was sour. Taco meat was greasy and lacked flavor. I really liked the deep fried ice cream, it was different from the ones I have had before, see pictures of it, but it was yummy

I was skeptical because the atmosphere wasn’t great. But the food, some of the best I’ve ever had (chicken enchiladas with green sauce and a white boy taco. The chips and salsa is amazing, too!). My server was excellent, also. I think his name is Marco? He recommended the House margarita, which was one of the best I’ve had. And it definitely didn’t hurt that they had Dos XX Ambar! I’ll definitely be a repeat customer.

We stopped by Rio Rico on a busy Friday night and still got seated quickly, which was a great start. The service was outstanding our waiter, part of the family that owns the place, was kind and accomodating, even making a custom breakfast burrito for my daughter at dinner time. With tasty food, free chips and salsa and a welcoming vibe. This spot is definitely one we’ll be coming back to.
