" Wow! The fiesta shrimp tacos are to die for! Bursting with flavor and the service was prompt. I loved the outdoor seating area, though it was a bit cramped. A great spot for a casual night with friends. Will be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food at Rio Balsas is decent but didn't quite live up to the hype for me. My tacos felt lacking in flavor. The atmosphere was pleasant enough, and the service was friendly, but I guess I was expecting something truly Mexican. I may give it another shot, but my first impression wasn't great. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, what an experience! I brought my family to Rio Balsas for the first time, and every single dish was a hit. The fajitas had generous portions and were sizzling hot! Visually stunning with peppers and onions, and incredibly tasty. Our server was friendly, although it took a while to get our drinks. Overall, a wonderful night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm usually not a fan of hole-in-the-wall restaurants, but Rio Balsas has changed my mind! The chicken enchiladas were heavenly, truly a perfect balance of flavors. The staff was eager to help select the best dish and their suggestions did not disappoint. Can't wait to bring my friends here! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ll be honest, this was not what I expected from a taqueria. While the decor suggests authenticity, the food was a bit bland for my taste. The service was satisfactory but not as attentive as I would have liked. I wasn’t disappointed overall, but it might not be my first choice next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely love Rio Balsas! The tacos are made with fresh, high-quality ingredients that truly represent authentic Mexican food. The atmosphere is vibrant and the staff are always friendly. I can't get enough of their spicy salsa - it's perfect! Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy a delightful meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, a breath of fresh air! Rio Balsas not only serves delicious food but is also one of the cleanest places I have tried. The vegetarian options were ample and I was glad to see they offer creations beyond the typical Mexican fare. " (*Curated Review*)
