El Patio Rio

"Only suggestion is the checking in process which is an easy fix with a sign that states "please wait to be seated or sit yourself". Otherwise great place, good atmosphere, staff are super friendly. Food was delicious. If you're a red vs green person...neither are hot in my opinion but the red is just so tasty. If you love spicy food as I do then ask your server for the hottest thing they got...promise they are tasty ;)"

"Excellent New Mexican food and the location is prime! Very similar menu as the University location but this location has a much better Green Chile cheese burger. They chop the chile at this location and it’s so authentic and mouth watering… especially with the melted cheese. Their Green Chile Cheese Enchiladas are a classic as well. The staff is very accommodating and nice. We were there in the winter and ate inside, but they have outdoor seating with heaters as well. If we lived closer we would be here more often, but are regulars to the University location."

"Tourists! Go here, not El Pinto. Adorable atmosphere, good food and service! I had fish tacos (Friday only). Yummy fried or sautéed cod! Salsa was good for me. Prices little high, but reasonable."

"The best authentic NM food in town. If you want fast food go to Chipotle. This is the real deal NM food with amazing ambiance, service, drinks, and food! We appreciate the bartender Chris and the dog friendly patio. The atmosphere here is laid back and unhurried. They have the best margaritas and use top notch fresh ingredients. We always bring our out of town friends here and love it for a date night."
