    Excellent eatery with inventive, mouth wateringly good food with Central American influences. Attentive and efficient service complimented by a small but well chosen wine, cocktail and beer selections.
    Personal favorites:
    The Candied Swine appetizer and the Pork Shank..

    The food is excellent, Latin-American fusion. Butcher paper on the tabletop with crayons for children is a nice touch. Decor is eclectic, featuring Oaxacan style animal statues.

    We went for Sunday brunch. Churrasco style steak and eggs with Chimichurri was outstanding, as were the empanadas. Service, however was quite lacking. No table water, even after several requests. Bottles beer took over 20 minutes for delivery. My daughter had soup as an entree; when we requested bread for her to accompany it, the bread was slapped down on the table top without a plate.

    Too Grill is an comic spot and we just recently returned to find the food is even better than I could have hoped for! The pork belly sliders are fantastic and addictive! The wait staff are champions, well trained, professional and friendly! So happy to have rediscovered an old
    Favourite! Also thenowners are huge philanthropists and give a great deal back to the local community! Simply exceptional!

    I've been a Happy patron for 25+ years. But their recent memu revision has established it as a Mexican restaurant and not to my liking.

    We love the Rio Grill. Whenever we are in Carmel this is one of our go to restaurant. The menu solid across the board, not all of it is uber/ultimate foodie dream food but everything we have had has been good and a few of the items are downright excellent. I would view it as a somewhat upscaled comfort food menu. They make a top notch duck breast, with the fat from the skin rendered just enough to make it crispy but still tender and juicy.

    This is the kind of place you find locals, the staff gets to know you and you feel welcome. It's a place you can unwind. It's where we like to go when we don't really want to go out but don't really want to cook either.

    If you are looking for Michelin star, Concours de Elegance, pinkies out dining then Rio Grill really isn't the place. But if you are looking for a welcoming environment with a nice combination of just enough elegance and "Let's have that second bottle of wine" edge then Rio Grill is the place for you.

    Located in the Crossroads Mall, it is surprisingly unique and eclectic. The ambiance is fantastic in the bar area, where there are cartoons of all local and visiting celebrities. Happy Hour food in the bar is a must; tiny tacos, quesadillas, fried artichokes and roasted artichoke with red pepper aioli (main menu item). Love this place!

    This is a cozy local hangout with a fusion style if food. Some California Grill mixed with Mexican flair. Can be casual or more formal depending on where you sit.

    My half-sister is a trademark lawyer for Coke. We sit down for lunch, I order a Coke, and the waitress tells me that it "will burn your stomach". This was such an unexpected comment, but not unwelcome. Sometimes I wish my sister worked for a company that makes a healthy product.
    On another occaission, I found myself seated next to one of the Stahl Motors kids. The look on the bartender's face was priceless when I told Mr. Stahl about my experience with his father's company. Rio Grill is an interesting place.
