(Translated by Google) Amazing place in downtown NY. The staff is very helpful and attentive, the dishes are good, tasty, abundant and well cared for. Sangria is very good! Prices almost below the average for a city like NY, despite our limitations with the English language, the staff made themselves available and helped us with the orders. Really good! We'll be back! (Original) Posto straordinario nel centro di NY. Il personale è molto disponibile e attento, i piatti sono buoni, gustosi, abbondanti e ben curati. Molto buona la sangria! Prezzi quasi sotto la media per una città come NY,nonostante i nostri limiti con la lingua inglese il personale si è messo a disposizione e ci ha aiutati per le ordinazioni. Davvero Bravi! Torneremo!

"Drink at Your Own Risk", is what should we advertised at El Rio Grande. The different flavored margaritas are pretty good, but also deadly. I had three over the span of two hours and was borderline drunk and wasted. I really enjoyed the guacamole being made in front us; the food was good, not great, but good. My only complaint was that my friends and I came to this place for their happy hour special ($5 margaritas), but ended up paying $11 for each. We had 15 margaritas as a group, so that added up quickly. When we asked out waiter about it, he said there's no happy hour on Friday. Mind you we were there from 5PM-7PM, a pretty typical happy hour time.

"I feel sorry for people who don't drink.  When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day" - SinatraWhy does this place only have 3 stars? Maybe people were writing their reviews first thing in the morning, with a hangover caused by the margaritas they drank the night before. Don't take your anger at your headache out on Rio Grande! Not only does this place have great food (try the loaded nachos....... pretty amazing stuff) butttt the margaritas are fantastic. A bit strong, but thats the way I like em :) The only reason they're not getting 5 stars is due to their prices..... A bit on the expensive side. Great place overall.
