I guess when the food sucks, any price is overpriced.
$5 box at taco bell would have been better

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

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

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

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

I agree. Never understood that criticism of Cafe Rio.

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

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.
