Rio Kitchen & Wine

We stumbled upon this restaurant after the restaurant we had initially chosen had a 1 hour wait for a table. Looking for a spot to rest after a long time at the Botanical Gardens, we found this cute spot. As soon as we walked in we were warmly greeted, and the service stayed excellent the entire time we were there. The decor is a cute mismash of various styles but the whole interior feels very outdoorsy. It reminded me a bit of an Italian courtyard. I imagine its wonderful during the warmer months. The food itself was reasonably priced and absolutely fantastic, with the fresh Butternut Squash ravioli with Black Truffle being absolutely incredible for $18. I would go back if I was in the neighborhood again!

I went there to eat out with my teenage daughter and we both had a great time. The food and service were both amazing and I loved that it was fairly priced and was very filling. A lot of places claim to cook authentic Italian food but sometimes full short in terms of flavor. But not this place. We had the shrimp scampi linguini and spicy rigatoni with chicken and the black truffle Flatbreadwithh pesto. The flavors were amazing. I also recommend the flight of passion drink or the strawberry blonde Mocktail. Although we were full we had to try their creme brulee which is my fave. I rate the food and service a 10/10.

Came here for brunch with friends after hearing about it from a friend. Loved the setting of this place, it felt cozy and inviting from the jump. I’m not big on pasta but I had the shrimp scampi and it exceeded expectations. Really good stuff. The drinks were delicious and our server was helpful and gracious throughout our meal. Looks like it would be a great spot for a romantic dinner as well. Will definitely be back!

My friends and I enjoyed the atmosphere and food, the service is really good. We loved the Prosciutto Flatbread and the Strawberry blonde drink. We consider the quality of the dishes we chose to be excellent (Tuscan chicken pasta, Roasted Salmon, and shrimp Scampi). Thank you to Roma for the Birthday Cocktails.

Me and my partner grabbed dinner here. Fantastic atmosphere with a very calming feel. The salad was great and pasta as well. The first time around my partner ordered spicy rigatoni with chicken which is prepared Al dente (We prefer it a little soft) I ordered the gluten free gnocchi. The pasta’s are freshly made in house which was a bonus for us (Who doesn’t love freshly made pasta?) Both dishes were amazing and filling we took some to go. Images below. Roma was an amazing host and very knowledgeable about the menu/meals.

We strolled in here on a Friday afternoon. We were seated right away. Our server (Nisa) was friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. She recommended our salmon dish and drinks all which were delicious. The owner sent over a dessert which was unique and left me craving for more (we devoured this didn’t get to take a pic). We are so glad we tried this place. We will be back for dinner and hope to try the brunch in the near future. Parking was easy, drinks were well balanced, food was excellent and ambiance was warm. 10 out of 10 thank you Viaroma for a wonderful meal
