Food was really fantastic! The skirt steak tacos were divine!!! Service was quick and perfect! And the restaurants decor was beautiful! Best Mexican food I have eaten in FOREVER!
Great service, top notch food. A little loud when it's busy for sure. We did the Carne asada and steak burritos. They were great!
Hands down the best Rio location in Colorado. Better than Boulder, much better than Denver. Atmosphere is light and bright with painted brick walls, bright & large paintings, large floor to ceiling windows. In the heart of vibrant downtown Fort Collins. Great service from Sage this afternoon. She kept the fresh tortilla chips rolling in the entire meal, which we appreciated. Delicious classic margarita with salt around the rim. Taco lunch special - enjoyed the mahi mahi taco with fresh mango salso, the chicken was just like chicken, but also got the shishito pepper taco and enjoyed it's texture and flavor. Great side of pickled onion and carrot with a smoking hot slice of jalapeno pepper - hot, but not too spicy hot. Chips were enough to quench the heat. Got the cole slaw side that was crispy and fresh, although would like a little less vinegar. Again, the fresh chips helped even that out. Haven't been this happy for a lunch out in a long while. Was surprised at how satisfied I was! :)
After ordering guac and the carnitas taco from 477 next door this past weekend, I knew this place deserved a full visit. No Walked in and after being sat at the booth, the hostess brought back the complimentary chips and salsa and a bottle of water. She was a lady of few words, which is totally fine. Came in for lunch and Raquel was my friendly server. I knew I wanted to try the green chili soup so I got the lunch special of quesadillas and green chili soup (you can pick a side salad or soup with this meal). I was undecided between the chicken quesadillas and the veggie quesadillas. I asked Raquel her opinion and she suggested the chicken. She was right! It was perfect amount, served with a scoop of sour cream and guacamole, with a little pico in the salad. Everything was delicious and the correct temperature! Since it's the past day of my vacation, I ordered the blood margarita (seasonal) and it was perfect! They are finishing up the remodel of the place and it will look great! I will be back when in town.
Guac tostada bigger than my head! #HFS This is a great Tex Mex place. Yelp says it's closed in Greeley, but that is no longer true. It's open and hopping with great service and tasty foods. Parking is plentiful and we went for a late lunch Friday afternoon with no reservations needed. I'd love to come back for tacos and libations soon!
