I don't write reviews very often, but Rio Burritos is one of those restaurants for me that deserves high praise. All around excellent food, some of the best Mexican in the entirety of Cedar Rapids. Lovely staff, one of them started to recognize me after a bit because of my grilled onion side orders and it was always really nice to talk to them again. And the atmosphere is of course excellent - a bit on the loud side if you care but great energy.
I left the area a few months ago, but this is a restaurant I consistently miss. I wish I could still get food from here.
Rio Burrito gets it right every single time! From date nights, to solo lunch to-gos, to catering graduation parties, they are the absolute best. Best burria, best salsa and queso, best desserts, best elote, best customer service...Will be a sad day if they ever leave!!
My girl, Phoebe 😌 She doesn't miss! 🎯 I've been rocking with her and her wonderful family since she was rolling up the best breakfast burritos EVER in downtown CR! 💪🏾
Rio's is a DoorDash fav, especially on nights I want good food, made with love. I was craving the Papa Loca, but needed a few more toppings. 🤤 I couldn't edit on the app, so I called the store and they were more than happy to oblige! Everything arrived just as requested and better than ever! 🤌🏾 Amazing customer service tonight and always! Thank you! 👏🏾❤️

Best Mexican in Cedar Rapids. Excellent service I couldn’t be more happy. The food was incredibly delicious. The service was top-notch! I will be back and I will tell everyone I know to come try this place.

My daughter and I went to Rio Burritos for dinner. We ordered queso with chorizo. It was so good! For our meals, she got fish tacos and I got steak/elote tacos. Both meals had a lot of flavor. Our server was very attentive and kind. For sure my new favorite Mexican restaurant. Can’t wait to go back and try more menu items.
