The first Cafe Rio Mexican Grill opened in 1997 in Southern Utah and, since then, loyal customers have been craving the restaurant’s fresh, made-to-order eats created from chef-inspired Mexican recipes — including tacos, burritos, enchiladas, salads, nachos, quesadillas and tostados. All dishes are fully customizable and offer something for everyone to enjoy. And Colorado is about to get another location!
