My family loves to come to Rio Mirage. Both locations are great, but we really love this one. There is typically a wait later in the afternoon, but today we walked right in and were seated. We were greeted right away and service was friendly. I was trying to decide what to eat and the server recommended the shrimp enchilada. We filled up a bit on chips and salsa which were great and when my enchiladas came they were amazing.perfectly sauced and full. Our waitress was kind and on top of everything the entire time.
Mark was our waiter and he was amazing. The food was amazing.
Let’s talk about it for a sec because these things are hard to find. Mark started off by giving us the history and how things are done then after some fun banter he made a great recommendation and for the drinks best margaritas I have had in awhile. We will be back!!!!!
Average food. It's a little pricy for portion size but good flavor. Chips and salsa ok, chips were hard, cold, and salt less. Salsa was good. Fajitas were good, mostly vegetables. Enchilada is excellent, beef taco had no flavor and cold. Great service. We had a motorized wheelchair and they gave us a table with different heights, and it was hard for us to navigate the chair
I really enjoyed this restaurant! The service was amazing. I really loved our waiter. The chips and salsa were wayyyy too good. We ate about 3 baskets and got too full to eat our actual food, so we had to take it to go! But it was really good reheated, so I'm willing to bet it was a lot better fresh!
This is my new favorite place for salsa! Left the perfect burn on my tongue without making me feel like needing to chug a glass of milk.
A bit pricey so it's definitely a place we would go as a "treat", but worth the price.
Staff was very kind and patient with me, and even tried to teach me how to pronounce the dish name correctly 😄
Edit; Our second time here and still very amazing! And if someone higher up sees this, please give Mark the waiter a raise! The staff obviously loves him, he practically runs to make sure every table is taken care of, and he genuinely made us feel welcome and special. This man has taken customer service skills to a new level!
Another edit.
Once again, Mark is amazing. He even talked my very picky husband into trying the seasonal Birria Tacos, and he liked them! Usually you will have to threaten to break his fingers before he will even consider going out of his comfort zone when it comes to food, so this was not an easy victory on Mark's part.
Mark, our outstanding waiter tonight showed us a new mini menu featuring items specifically made for this fall. He told us how good the Birria Tacos were - and WOW, they were AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS! Best Mexican restaurant in Phoenix! Always great! If you like great Mexican food and great margaritas, this is the place!
Had dinner here for the first time. The chips and salsa are good, salsa is not spicy at all so I asked for a hotter one to mix in. Got the mahi mahi tacos, they were pretty good with the pineapple salsa added on, otherwise they were a little bland. The wait staff was very nice and service was pretty fast for a busy evening.
Food was delicious but very pricey. Waiter was amazing. And 5 stars for ambiance. We went for Cinco de mayo so of course it was packed. Only added to our experience. I would go again
The food was superb and our waiter was top notch. He was friendly and had great recommendations. He checked on us several times even though it was busy.
You should call ahead, this place is always busy. There is a reason... the food is great! Huge portions... you can get away with ordering an appetizer and you would still have enough to take home. I have tried the fajitas and a combo with red tamale and enchilada. Both meals were great. The salsa and dip trio are also amazing. A little pricey but highly recommended.
