Bajio has the best rice and sauces, cafe Rio has the best meat and tortillas

That's the one thing I miss about Bajio. If I ever go to the one in Provo, that's definitely what I'd get.

The Cafe Rio franchise has gone down hill fast. We only go to the Costa Vida now.

I’m a chipotle person but the qdoba by my house is usually busy.

10/25/22 9:05pm

Qdoba is good. A bit expensive and hard to find in Utah.

HuskerFan2

10/25/22 9:10pm

I liked Qdoba but it didn’t even last a year in St. George. Location sucked.

Costa Vida's superior horchata gives them the edge...and their tomatillo mild sauce.

BlueBlood94

Their raspberry sauce is also great. And having the option of refried beans.
