Was way across town with my husband today, and I got to eat at an old favorite restaurant, Café Rio. This is a chain that we discovered in Utah, but they have one outlet here in Arizona [and I learned from the website they are also in Nevada, Idaho, California, and Colorado]. Here it’s in Gilbert. So if you are close to Gilbert or are going anywhere near or past there, you should definitely try this food.
While Café Rio offers burritos and enchiladas, you should not expect regular Mexican food. The burritos are huge, for one thing; definitely a portion worth sharing. But my absolute favorite is the salad – Fire Grilled Chicken breast with the house tomatillo dressing. This stuff is extraordinary. I’d drive all the way over there just for the dressing.
