This location does what it does very well.
They are quick, efficient, and reliable.
The food is good, the staff is efficient, and they will have you in and out in no time.
Occasionally certain things seem not to have been wiped down,
but these seem to be infrequent isolated incidents.
You can frequently see the staff cleaning and ensuring things are ready for the next customer.
If you are looking for quick, reliable, Mexican style food, this is the best place in the immediate area.
Haven't been here in a long time as husband usually prefers more "authentic" Mexican restaurants but this is a nice restaurant, convenient, with good food. Husband ordered a burrito with chile roast beef. I ordered enchiladas, might have only ordered one if asked but automatically was given two, with chile roast beef. The meat was tender although I thought the chile might add spice. The sauces give whatever is ordered various degrees of spiciness. We found our meals plenty to eat. The guy in front of us ordered a vegetarian salad, so that's an option, which I found interesting as this restaurant seems to be all about the delicious meats. Not crowded on a Monday night, good amount of customers, with maybe more to go and pick up orders than dine-in.
The line was super long when I got there but they got people in & out pretty quickly!!
The food was delicious!
I got what I always get when I visit UT- The Sweet Pork Salad with tomatillo ranch!!
Got the sweet pork quesadilla for the kids
10/10 Definitely Recommend!!
I'm out of the habit of going to Cafe Rio because the last place we lived it wasn't very good. I'm impressed with the North Ogden location and we'll definitely be back. The restaurant was clean, the employees were nice and helpful, and the food was fresh and delicious.
UPDATE - a few years later and we still really like the North Ogden location. It's become a family favorite! **I love the new lids they have that hold the salad dressing cups.**
Slow and it is okay. Sure do miss their birra tacos though. Those were so good I wanted to go fight crime after dinner.
4 stars for atmosphere only because the floor was sticky where I sat. Otherwise, I love everything!
The bride and I had planned on getting our Cafe Rio go-to's but the Karen in front of us ordered a tostada and it looked so dang good we decided to try it and it's now both of our new favorites.
I also want to give a shout out to the manager or lead (blue shirt). It's 7:30pm on Aug 4th. they had such a fun personality, singing and dancing, chatting up customers in what seemed to be sincere manner. She made the small wait in line much more enjoyable. If they had a name tag I'd drop it!
Had the carne asada burrito, food was excellent, good flavors, fresh ingredients, service was very good, pleasant and friendly. The atmosphere was welcoming not terribly loud, plentiful seating. It was overall a very good experience.
I placed an order on line and when I arrived someone else had picked up my order...the staff cheerfully remade my order and threw in an extra item for my trouble...my troubles, really... great service,,
Great atmosphere, amazing people, best quesadilla I’ve ever had!!
