Terrible food and even worse location. Only good thing is that it serves booze when everyone else is closed.

Been there a couple times... Horrible horrible service. Soggy food just not that good tbh.. and I had a DoorDash pickup order at 11:57 and I got there at 12:08 and they said they closed the kitchen... they were BLASTING music in the kitchen with people drinking beer, when my order was supposed to be there smh.. if it's a Saturday and your open till 1am let people know your going to close early, otherwise your wasting people's time.

Absolutely the worst, nastiest, stale and cold food I've ever been served. I'm in shock that they brought a soft taco and tried to say it's a quesadilla. The cheese dip was watered down and cold. The chips were stale. The food was just disgusting and makes me never want Mexican food again and I love tacos.

Great food, I guess, depending on who's working that day, sometimes can be a great service, but sometimes you wish for better personal.

Some of the best Mexican food I have had. Very tasty and great service. If you are in the area be sure to give them a try.

I love their taco deal on Tuesdays. They are not out of this world tacos but they are good for the price. Good service!

The food is most TexMex than authentic Mexican.l, but the waitress was nice and service prompt.

Absolutely delicious authentic Mexican food can be found here! We were greeted with fast and kind service during our visit on a Saturday night. It’s a cool vibe in here they have music playing, a pool table and step slot machines and a full bar. If your visiting the area, there are definitely a few Mexican restaurants in your vicinity, but this is by far the best one.

The food was not fresh, I felt nauseous after eating and my wife vomited as soon as we got home. It was the worst $40 I’ve ever spent. I hope they take this and do a Gordon Ramsey in the kitchen!`

I was hopeful for this place when we moved here but definitely bad bad bad. We've given it a try a few times hoping it was just a couple bad days before but unfortunately not. The young man that is always our waiter seems stoned, can barely keep his eyes open and always lays down in an empty booth between taking orders. The soda machine is some how ALWAYS down and they serve flat soda poured out of 2-liter bottles, but only Coke. When we told the waiter it was flat instead of offering to open a new bottle he just said "uhh I could fill your glass to the top if you want". Yeah, that's not going to help bud. I ordered a burrito and it maybe had three pieces of meat throughout the entire thing. I get their struggling, like everyone else, but this certainly isn't going to bring customers in. And the dirty, dusty decor and holes in the wall also doesn't help.

I should’ve just listened to all the reviews but we still decided to give it a chance?.. my husband and i went there right after we got off work and we were the only costumers until 10 mins later a couple came in too but went straight to the bar and then played at the pool.. we then got our chips and salsa and u the chips were old, it tasted too stale? then we both ordered the street tacos(3 for $10) and a side of tamales.. later on more people came but went straight to the bar area.. Mind you, it’s just my husband and i at the booth area, it has been more than 20mins and the food still wasn’t out, as i look around i saw the couple that came in right after us at bar area already eating and we were STILL haven’t gotten our food.. finally after another 15 mins we finally got our food and tell me whyyyy it wasn’t even fresh at all!! The tamales were cold and it has cheese on top of it! I’ve never seen that before! The tacos were cold as-well and so tiny and very very bland!? I have to drowned it with hot sauce and even with that didn’t help! It only took us about 10 mins to eat our food, didnt even finish it! I was too eager to get out of there bcz of hw slow and bad the food! It took another extra 15 mins to finally get the check! Seriously wasn’t worth $50?

Fajitas are not good. live right down road and would rather travel a while to go to anywhere else. bar scene is good. but that's all i would go for. manager was atrocious to me when asked for large salsa to go (charged $15). would always get salsa. $8. then $10. never same price twice. two days in a row. recently gave em another shot. fajita meat was unedible as it was nothing but grissle and fat. veggies not even attempted to be cooked. if ur looking for bar to drink at. go for it. looking for decent food at decent prices. forget it. I love hispanic food and wanna be positive but i just really cannot. Not here. Not food wise.

The older reviews would turn anyone off. I can only assume that there are new cooks and servers as I liked this place. A real diamond in the rough. Housed in the middle of an apparently dying shopping center, you will find Del Rio Mexican Restaurant. A little scary from the outside, but OK inside. We have tried several Mexican restaurants since moving out here and haven't been able to find a decent one after trying 5 others. Stumbled onto this place by looking for a place to have drinks with friends after an afternoon event. We had several appetizers with our drinks that we enjoyed. That and the warm welcome and atmosphere wiped away our initial trepidations about this place. Since then, we have come back for meals three times. All three meals were very good. As a matter of fact, their Carne Asada was off the hook! Another restaurant nearby has very high ratings, but based on several visits there, this little hole in the wall is better on several counts. Don't be put off by the location and exterior appearance. Try out Del Rio for your local Mexican food fix. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

We went at a slow time, so the staff (1 waiter) was attentive. We were presented with the smallest bowl of salsa ever for 3 people to share. All of my food came on separate plates for some reason. The margaritas were highly priced and we very lacking on the amount of tequila in them. When mentioned we were gifted 1 shot of tequila to share for both of our margaritas (by a man I'm assuming is the owner) and they were still weak drinks. Our food was good and it's a very relaxed/chill atmosphere. Including a pool table and a bar. I will definitely return soon. There's also an outside dining area, but the view is the parking lot.
