Reviews for Rio Rio Cantina in San Antonio, TX
Unable to give 0 stars so had to go with one. This place is absolutely awful We ordered the queso thinking it was going to be a... good size just for them to bring it out and be a very small bowl for $12. I then ordered the tortilla soup and paid $10 for asmall bowl the same size as the queso. The prices are ridiculous and not worth it. Would never eat here again. Read more
We had a table of 6 dining tonight for my birthday:/. We travelled from DC to San Antonio and wanted some good Tex mex. This is... the worst PLACE!! The table was dirty, they put menus down. The service was slow and then 4 out of the 6 meals ordered werecold. My tequila shrimp was TERRIBLE!! I couldn’t eat them! They were rubbery and hard. OVERCOOKED::/!! We sent the food back,it was just as bad the second time. The Spanish rice was not good, how do you mess up rice?? All I wanted was good TEX MEX,this is NOT IT! Other tables were upset with the service and the food too. You have a great location, please fix your food. Themanager reduced the ticket and took a lot off. It was 225.00 and they took it to 106.00. It was not worth that much, such a bigdisappointment. Read more
no complementary chips and salsa, very bad food, humid and hot inside, drinks good but wouldn’t waste money on the food. The... chicken fajitas were inedible and had a ton of fat. Chicken quesadillas came with barely any cheese, and UNcooked peppers. Ourserver was awesome but not worth it. Read more
The in-house band performs songs for each table on request. Great food and cocktails. Quick service. Variety of dishes for veg... and non-veg. Only thing is I did not like black beans in mashed form. And the portion size was a bit on the heavy side.Suggested you go really hungry to finish the plate. Pet friendly place. The servers were amazing. Read more
This was a spontaneous spot to try out and I enjoyed the entire meal. I had the chicken fajita which was fresh and juicy. The... rice was what I was expecting when it comes to Mexican rice especially with the beans. The frozen magarita was a little more onthe sweet side where they weren't generous with the alcohol. The waiter did take a little long than usually in taking our orderdue to, what I am assuming is the lack of employees, to help serve the amount of people coming in. Read more
Genuinely surprised at the good reviews this place has. Our experience was horrendous. The food barely edible. Ordered the... fajitas, the meat was mostly fat, ZERO flavor. The beans and rice were complete mush, and again, no flavor at all, the blandestMexican food I’ve ever had. I’d give zero stars if I could. Read more
If you’re in San Antonio and venture out to the Riverwalk this is a staple! This is some of the best most authentic Mexican... food you can have anywhere! I would recommend the classic platter which is phenomenal. I would also recommend a spicy margaritait was the best! The chips and salsa are also fantastic and you can’t beat the venue! Read more
Great place!!! Reserved a table for the Day of the Dead Celebration. Great place and buffet for the event. Food was fabulous and... plenty of it. River float parade was disappointing. Not the restaurants fault. But they gave us a gift card to make up for theparade. Best management I have been around. Go see them the food and staff are worth a visit. We will see them again.
