I found this hidden gem while looking up nearby Peruvian or South American restaurants. From the moment we walked through the door, we knew this place was special. The decor was tasteful and minimalist, which showcased the enormous mural on the far wall. The menu, which is vast and enticing, left us with the impossible task of selecting which appetizer and entree we would order. We enlisted the help of our server and were not disappointed. I had a lovely seafood stew and my fiancé selected the paella. We started with a basket of house bread and fried dumplings stuffed with a creamy mixture flavored with duck bacon. WOW! The next time you’re near Addison, run, don’t walk to Rio’s Addison....and come hungry!
One of the best steak dinners I've had in a long time. This has become one of our favorite local places and definitely worth every penny! The food is always excellent and full of flavor. The owner and employees are all very good people as well.
This was my third time eating here, first time dining inside. Food was excellent. The appetizer was a sampler of everything. The porterhouse lamb chops were cooked to perfection, medium rare and juicy. The only negative was the steak in the second entree was a little dry and should have been cooked at medium rare. Service was great, waitress was very attentive.
What an amazing experience. The food is just awesome. Came here during a business trip and my colleague and I decided for dinner here. Both her and I loved our dishes. I had the lamb chops. She had the chicken dish. Absolutely great food and service experience. 👌🏻

Came to celebrate our anniversary with friends. This little place, from the outside, looks very unassuming. When you get inside, it's a very cozy and modern and inviting place to be. We sat all the way in the back. They have a beautiful bar in the middle. We started off with an appetizer of Alos 3 Ajies, which is a spicy ceviche with lime, pepper, and onions, served with a small sweet potato. This was not my favorite. It was a little too salty for me. I will try another item next time. The spicy, sweet, and sour were different tastes, but the salty overruled it for me. They brought out crispy strips of what looked like pita bread, along with 2 dipping sauces. The main entrees ordered were Bife De Chirizo NY strip steak, Milanesa a LA Privenzan, and 2 Arroz cin Mariscos. The steak was high quality, grass fed beef. Very tender and flavorful. The bread steak was nicely presented, and the fries were extra good. The person eating it said it tasted too much like a chicken parmesan. So, the other flavors mentioned in the description were not coming through. Two of us had the Arroz con Mariscos. There are 6 different fish in this dish. The rice has so much flavor being cooked in seafood broth, brandy, and wine. Excellent! We even had a desert! Flan and a flourless chocolate cake with raspberry sauce, ice cream, and whipped cream. Delicious! The big cherry on top of the night was the entertainment. A lady singer and a man playing the guitar. It just added to the specialness of the night. I would suggest studying the menu before coming, so many things to choose from. There is an upcharge for credit card use, they do offer a discount for cash. We will definitely be back!
I will come back!!! I really enjoyed the service and the food quality at this restaurant. I would highly recommend it. They have a great ceviche that it is must. Most of their appetizer are deep fried which make them Super tasty.
We have been here several times now. We drive over an hour to enjoy a great meal. They have a great atmosphere inside, and it seems very authentic with Peruvian music playing. I highly recommend the Bife De Chorizo with chimichurri. The portions are big, and you will leave with a full tummy 😋 The servers are all very nice and treat you well. Thank you, Rio, for such a great experience!
A quaint little place with amazing food, great drinks, and exceptional service! We highly recommend the coconut martini and anything steak. I got a dry aged NY strip that just melted and we absolutely love the Pão de Queijo as an appetizer.
We will be back for more soon!
This was my first time at Rio's and I had a great time. The service was amazing; my water cup was always full, the dirty dishes were cleared quickly, and our server was funny and accommodating. My favorite dish was the Rio's ceviche. It's a small portion, great for an appetizer dish, but it has a bold flavor. It wasn't spicy, even with the Peruvian habanero in it. The entrees were huge! Lots of food for that price and very delicious too. I will definitely come back.
Do not listen to bad reviews. Food was excellent. Service matched. I ate as a table of one and the waitress was extremely attentive. All food was excellent. I ordered the Conquistador to drink, which was similar to an American Long Island Iced Tea. It did not disappoint. Would highly recommend.
I don't live near this restaurant, but won a gift card in a school raffle. It was a bit of a drive for me, but was totally worth it! We wanted to try as many things as we could and ended up ordering 4 or 5 appetizers as well as dessert. The food was so good and the outdoor dining area was very nice. Glad to have tried something new. I will definitely go there again!
Fantastico!!!!!!
Delicious food, live entertainment, and wonderful friends!!!
