Paring Awesome TexMex with Potent Margaritas for a Truly Addicting Duo

  • Six Convenient Locations
  • Denver Mexican Restaurant
  • Famous Margarita Selection
From its downtown location adjacent to the 16th Street Mall and Pepsi Center, the Rio Grande Mexican Restaurant has become a staple stop on any visit to LoDo Denver. Visit the renovated upstairs bar, "Rio Cantina," to watch your favorite team on the many TVs.

This Denver Mexcian restaurant has prided itself on fresh food, award-winning margaritas, and an energetic, casual atmosphere for over 20 years. Outdoor dining on the patio is divine, but patrons of all ages can enjoy traditional Mexican music, tasteful d?cor, and a diverse menu in any dining space.

Happy Hour is Mon-Thur with $2.75 mini margaritas, $1 off select imports, and $5 appetizers like guacamole ensalada, chile con queso and empanadas. The Rio Grande also offers Mexican catering throughout the metro area.

Fun for family and friends is found at the premier Denver Mexican restaurant, the Rio Grande.

Editorial Review for Rio Grande Mexican Restaurant – by Citysearch Editor

In Short
This wildly popular place usually has a line of people waiting for a table or patio spot. Luckily it's ok to order appetizers and margaritas at the bar and check out the social scene during the wait. The restaurant is all about margaritas: Big or small, frozen or on the rocks. They're deceptively potent; so there's a three-margarita limit. For dining, fajitas hit the table sizzling and queso dip is good to the last drop.

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go
Although the restaurant doesn't accept reservations, it does have call-ahead seating. To get seated more quickly, call the morning of the day you go and get on the list.

When to Go
Hit happy hour Sunday through Wednesday (5pm-7pm) and enjoy free snacks and a dollar off margaritas and certain beers.
