A welcoming, casual atmosphere. We went at 2:30 on a Sunday, during Christmas week. Not overly crowded, tables are well spaced. I had the braised pork, my husband had the red snapper. Both were very good. Nice portion sizes. We each had a glass of wine. It was my birthday so we ordered the Tres Leches Cake for dessert. (It came with a candle ) Overall it was enjoyed, we’ll be back.

Wow, wow, wow — absolutely amazing! The flavors are out of this world, the cocktail menu is spot on, and the service is second to none. Add in the perfect ambiance, and you’ve got a place that works just as well for a romantic date night as it does for happy hour with friends.
Three must-tries are the tequila selection, the plantains, and of course, the tableside guacamole. The only thing that topped the incredible food was the outstanding service — warm, attentive, and on point from start to finish. The atmosphere is inviting, there’s ample parking, and even outdoor seating to enjoy when the weather is nice. If I’m ever back in this area, this will be a guaranteed stop!

After spending the morning at Old Mystic Village, hubby found this restaurant right across the street while looking for one with vegan options. This restaurant has a whole vegan menu!!! The food was fresh and delicious, service was quick and friendly (we were there for a late lunch on a Friday) and their homemade hot sauce is to die for! Saving this restaurant and will probably have to make the hour trip from home to visit again.

I’m back. Tonight, pressed for time, we popped in to Rio Salado for a quick drink and appetizer on our way to a show at one of the nearby casinos.
We sat at the bar. How can simple chips and salsa, and southwestern chicken quesadillas leave such an impression… flavor. Taste their salsa and you can tell that a lot of thought was put into it. It’s not a contest of heat, because you can have heat without flavor. Rio Salado’s salsa has just the perfect amount of heat, but more importantly, the very best flavor. The quesadillas were excellent, not overstuffed, not overcooked. The chicken wasn’t dry and was very identifiable- not so smothered in cheese that you weren’t sure what you were eating.
Can’t forget to mention the excellent attention from two excellent barmaids/waitstaff. Friendly, attentive, and welcoming.
I really had no intention of reviewing tonight. I can’t wait to return.

Great meal, great service! Quickly seated for lunch, and presented with a complimentary bowl of cucumbers with tajin as an appetizer. Very refreshing on such a hot day! Fish tacos and enchiladas mole were excellent. Luis, our waiter, was attentive and upbeat, giving us little “worry dolls” at the end of the meal. Definitely recommend!

Every time we come here, we always leave satisfied. The food is always so delicious and with freshly prepared ingredients. The drinks are some of the best cocktails you’ll ever have in Mystic. Order the Pina asada and PBT cocktails!!
Always great service and the perfect date night spot or girls night out.

Very cute Mexican restaurant. Pretty decor and vibes. Cocktail was spot on. Quesadilla and cast iron tacos were awesome too. Best of all was truffle yuca fries . PS: don’t ask for salsa, they charge extra for that!

It’s hard not to give this spot 5 stars. The staff were super friendly. The atmosphere was quite nice and clean and there is plenty of outdoor seating. The food is great too with plenty of options for vegans, vegetarians, or those with allergies such as to gluten. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area.
