Cafe Rio is a favorite! Excellent food, huge portions, great prices...need I say more? Cafe Rio's dishes reflect the traditional cooking of the Rio Grande region of Northern Mexico, Southern Texas and New Mexico. My ultimate favorite is their salads! They start with a giant, freshly homemade tortilla, toast it with chees, top it with rice and beans (I recommend the black beans), add your choice of meat (try the pork barbacoa or fire grilled steak), and finish it off with crisp romaine lettuce, pico de gallo, guacamole, tortilla strips, cotija cheese, cilantro, and lime wedges. It comes with your choice of dressing: creamy tomatillo house or cilantro-lime vinaigrette (my favorite is the house). I like to dip the warm tortilla shell in the dressing. YUM! I have never had a better salad!
If you are in the mood for a burrito, make sure to order it "enchilada style" which means that they smother the burrito in a red or green sauce and bake it with cheese. Delicious!
Cafe Rio also offers daily specials with entrees that are not a part of their regular menu. You really can't go wrong with anything on the Cafe Rio Menu!
