Costa vida > Cafe Rio, mainly cause cafe rio nachos are terrible

Cafe Rio nachos are the bomb, just pour ranch on them and you're good to go

moving from Utah to the east. People rave about chipotle (more like crapotle)

I like chipotle more. I live in the east and Mexican food tends to suck

Well, I've been to two different chipotle's and had a bad experience at both

Chipotle is sooooo far from what Mexican food should taste like it's not even

Is cafe Rio's sugar pork closer?

The terrible corn and and nasty other crap they put on ruins Chipotle

So is my wife's family and they much prefer Chipotle. And her grandma is a chef.

You are the one claiming one tastes more authentic, which neither does.

Where did I claim that? I didn't say either was authentic.

What do you take from the story that Chipotle is closing 65 stores and reworking

Who cares if Chipotle or Cafe Rio are authentic Mexican?

I agree. Never understood that criticism of Cafe Rio.

Overpriced at $8/meal? What do you consider priced right?
ManicBlue

I guess when the food sucks, any price is overpriced.

That comment pretty much seals it. Won't be taking any food advice from you ...

That's my point. Even Taco Bell is better. and it's not much

That's my point. Taco Bell isn't better than anything. I'm not sure they serve

I like Cafe Rio, not great food, but good food. Used to be better, it has gone down hill. But...it is NOT Mexican food.

That's still pretty iffy if you are actually looking for Mexican food

The actual best places are the Mexican markets.

Yup. Good Mexican American food here, just not authentic.

Then again, I'm not a fan of the "authentic" places in CA or NM either.

Cafe Rio is Americanized Mexican food.

If it isn’t “Mexican” what broad classification would you give it? Italian? Gree
