Top Reviews of Rio Grande Mexican Restaurant

04/13/2025 - Porter S.
I have enjoyed dining here for many years, consistently experiencing delicious food, attentive service, and a welcoming atmosphere. The steak and chicken fajitas are particularly satisfying, and the staff always goes the extra mile, ensuring we have everything we need, like extra salsa without having to ask. Even after all this time, the quality remains impressive, making it a reliable choice for a comforting meal.

I've been a regular here for years and the food, service, and atmosphere never disappoint. It's not fancy Mexican cuisine, but it's consistently delicious. The fajitas are a solid choice, and the service always goes above and beyond to make you feel at home.
