El Rio Mexican Restaurant

Been lookin everywhere on the east coast for good Mexican food. This place is it!! Food tastes amazing. Quality and portion size was great. Thank you for the experience.

Placed a take out order. The food was good and the price was good. There is something for everyone on their menu. I'm definitely going back

Man let me tell yall something The ACP meal or APC it's one of the two. It comes with chicken rice and cheese on the chicken. Which I know would be amazing but I sub steak for chicken and added shrimp and HOT DAMN it was totally amazing. I eat only o e person Tamales and I have to say hands down they were amazing also. Well spent money thier. The waitress was on her job for real. She served everyone and checked on everyone and had time to rest she was very polite and the atmosphere was great.

My favorite meal when out, pescado, grilled veggies and salad instead of rice and beans. Fresh, fast, pretty healthy and reasonable. Ordered pico de gallo and got this huge plate of freshness. Nice!

My favorite place to eat when I'm in town. I'm always with a big group. Amazing food. ❤

Food was good and cooked to order. I will go back again.

This is the best Mexican food I've had outside of California. We left the highway to check it out and it was so worth it. Incredibly tasty. And the price is right -- 2 adult meals, 2 kids meals, and drinks were $40 including tax. The server was really attentive and accommodating as well. Make it a part of your trip.

Our fave go to. ACP (chicken, rice, cheese) is yummy for those who don't know what to order. Chicken soup is exceptional taste wise and value. Served with the spicy picco on side so you choose spice level. Great to take out as well. Personal fave is taco salad with grilled chicken.

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in this area. They are a busy establishment but tend to take care of frequent returners. They are decently priced. The Mexican soup and taco salads are my favorite items but I have never ordered anything I didn’t like from here. When my work place has events, we order from this restaurant every time. It’s a crowd favorite. Would recommend and go back.

Look past the strip mall location and the basic decor. Excellent and fresh guacamole. Delicious spinach enchiladas and potato burritos. Hot and fresh food. Service was a tad slow but they were busy

I am giving this place 5 stars, not because it's a 5 star restaurant. I'm giving it 5 stars because of the value of the quantity and quality of the food for the price you pay. The wait staff isn't overly friendly, but they are fast and efficient. I ate there for lunch three times this last week. I got water to drink, and never paid above $9 for my food. Not counting the tip I gave obviously. The burritos are large for $7. My favorite dish was the veggie fajitas. I enjoyed my food every time and had enough to have dinner too. Win-win.

My go-to for local Mexican food. Love the burrito supremo and Monterey quesadilla. Great queso cheese too!

Best Mexican food in Butner. Service was quicker than I expected as the food for our table only took about 10 minutes to come out. Will be eating there every time I go to Butner.

This is as good as it gets. Top notch Mexican food. Place is clean, great food and fast service.

Had an excellent meal! Ordered 3 soft tacos and they were loaded with beef. It was well drained and delicious. Salsa was great with a slight kick to it. Service was wonderful - staff kept my tea glass filled and regularly checked to see if I needed anything. Great place!

The waitress was friendly and attentive. The black beans are amazing. I got the steak chimichanga and chili relleno combo, both were really good. I will definitely be going back.

We were quickly seated, given our menus and took our drink order. Chips and salsa along with our drinks were brought out quickly. We placed our order and it too was brought out quickly and hot. Food overall was very good. Will visit again when traveling through. Thanks for a good hot meal.

Great people, great service, great food!😊

The Best Buy for Mexican restaurant I have ever eaten in. Besides the food being great the staff is excellent and are well managed by Alex Fuentes.

El Rio is a great place to dine in or take out. We eat there often. Their food is always great, the staff is always friendly. Their prices are good as well. I have nothing but good things to say about this restaurant and their food. We have been a frequent customer and we will continue to be a customer.
