" I visited El Rios for the first time and was quite impressed. The food was great, and I loved the Mexican art on the walls. The only downside was that the service was a bit slow, but the waiter was polite. The tacos were very authentic, particularly the grilled chicken ones. The ambiance made up for the wait. I'd definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Rios has quickly become my favorite place to eat in the area! The chiles rellenos were fantastic and very authentic, reminding me of my childhood. The service was great – the staff takes pride in what they do, which shows. I can't recommend this place highly enough! " (*Curated Review*)
