fun place, lots to see, bad bad ritas – The food was pretty decent, the service staff super great, the margaritas were ungodly bad. The atmosphere, 'scenery' is great - overall a great place - just drink something different!
The Best – I love The Rio! Their margaritas are truly spectacular! The best I've had! Be careful though, because they will creep up on you! The food is pretty good, but most people come here for the margs. Chips and salsa are yummy. P.S. On the weekends there is a line just to get in!
Top Notch Margs!!! – Outstanding Margs...without using expensive ingrediants. Anybody can get a great marg with top shelf stuff. The Rio uses Cuevo Gold (an average tequila) and produces the best house marg around...strong and balanced, not too sweet like most bar margs. The Rio has recently added top-shelf tequilas and other marg flavors to the list. The food is average, but the Salsa is great and the Queso del Mar is outstanding!!! Loud and friendly atmosphere with young attractive croud. Forget the dinner wait...hang at t... read more
Joe Crow Margaritas – The margaritas are certainly potent, but good? Any margarita made with Jose Cuervo tequila is substandard at best. Ever notice that Mexcians don't drink Jose Cuervo tequila? The food is very good, however. The Camerones ala Diabla are awesome if you like that dish. The place can be very busy, so if you are worried about good service make sure you tip extra well for the first round - and then continue to tip well. (Hint: this means above 15%). Servers remember good tippers.
They have very good margaritas, but also have very good food. It seems that they are packed most of the time with people looking to "see and be seen" but in the off hours it is a comfortable place to get good mexican food.
Good Food - Excellent Bar Scene – The Margaritias here are great! If other reviews say different they area competitor who is trying to throw you off - The food is good mexican - not too tex-mex, Not Denvers' best Mexican but far from the worst - actually quite good (and I am a niative of Solo Colo) - I highly reccommend the Rio!!!
shockingly bad margs – I have had a few great margs in my day ( mostly in Santa Fe & Toas) and quite a few decent ones throughout the Denver area. When I heard that the Rio ( Denver) had "great" ones I was excited to try one. I have never been more disapointed. For starters for anyone who enjoys good tequila, you won't find it here. the best tequila they had was Cuervo Gold. You have got to be kidding! Ceurvo is gold because they add coloring to it not because it is aged like most gold tequilas . I like a marg w/a kick but A... read more
BEST MARGARITAS..NO QUESTION – The service is average, so is the food. BUT THE MARGARITAS-- Holy cow, if you like margs go here! I do not understand why this place closes between lunch and dinner (Like 2-5pm) even on weekends!! That is inconvenient for someone in the mood for a mid-day marg on a Saturday afternoon when the kids are are at grandma's. This place is PACKED come FRI AND SAT by 6-8 pm! I like the one in Boulder better.
Great Margs, OK Service – Great margaritas as everyone in Colorado knows, but the service (especially hostesses) leaves much to be desired. Some of the staff members (especially hostesses) act as if the customer owes them something. They tend to forget that although their restaurant is very popular, they still must treat their customers right! p.s. One of the best salsas in town too!
