This is a great place to stop for some delicious food. The beef taco had more meat than any place I've ever been. The enchilada sauce was really delicious and the beans had a lot of flavor. My server Catherine was very attentive, friendly and helpful. The chips and salsa were great too.

Having grown up on the east side, Casa Del Rio is a staple for me. It reminds me of my youth — my mom taking us as kids is always a great core memory. Any time I'm in town, I find time to eat a meal at CDR. It's exactly how I remember it.

We've been coming to this wonderful restaurant since the turn of the millennium. Back from the east, enjoying Tucson again. In town four days and ate twice at Casa Del Rio — a definite YES!

Kevin and all his staff — Amanda, Billy, George, Tyler, David, Iliana — are amazing! I would put Kevin up against any speakeasy craft cocktail bartender. His knowledge is deep, and he uses only the freshest, highest quality ingredients. I love the food too; our friends have come here for years.

It's the best little hole-in-the-wall place ever! I've been coming here since I was a kid, and this is by far the best Mexican food I've ever had. No other place comes close. It's a comfort food thing for me, and I'm so glad this place is still going strong.

I have been eating at this restaurant for 24 years and it has never failed me! Great Mexican food that is reasonably priced, and the wait staff is incredibly kind and patient. The same owners since I started eating here — that says everything.
