Popped in with the GF to grab a bite in the early evening hours. I thought we might avoid crowds and be able to get in, eat and punch out. I was wrong on only one of my assumptions.......BUSY.
The parking lot is shared with another eatery and custard place. It was packed. Fortunately for us the parking fairy smiled on us and we were able to get a spot up close. I say this not to discourage anyone, it's only to say if you have to park a little bit further north do so. The walk will be good for after you stuff your face.
Despite the crowd, the line moves quickly. Everyone of the other side of the counter seemed to be busting their asses to move things along.
I ordered up a fire grilled chicken salad with a cilantro dressing that is amazing. The salad part is placed in a tortilla bowl with cheese melted at the bottom.
In addition to the salad and the GF's chicken burrito we ordered some chips and queso dip. Perhaps I could have done without that. The queso dip was a little watery for my taste.
This was my second trip to a Cafe Rio, my first at this location. I am a fan and if asked to go to Cafe Rio to dine I would absolutely go.
