My husband and I came in around 7:45 on Saturday night, with our munchkins and greeted warmly and taken to a table right away. Our server asked if we had ever been to a Brazilian steak house because the concept was the same. There are two menus, one with all the apps and everything the other with salad and all the pizzas. They bring the appetizers to you and then bring pizza around. We chose the first one to try the wings, salad, bread and, meatballs. I have to say they were all amazing. No complaints. The wings were crispy and well sauced. We did the teriyaki and the lemon pepper and those were some of the best chicken wings I have had in a long time. Juicy, crunchy and, delicious. The salad was crispy and fresh. The meatballs had great flavor and the sauce was perfect for taking the bread and dunking and wiping your plate clean with it. The bread itself was crunchy and light at the same time. So so good. They brought around all different types of pizza. All fresh, all hot and from what I experienced delicious. I tried their margarita, the Hawaiian, pepperoni, calabresa and, stroganoff. Every single one was different but extremely good. The crush was lightly charred and yet still chewy and soft. Their dessert pizzas are amazing. My husband and I tried their brigadeiro, banoffee and, Nutella com Morgano. So, basically chocolate, upon chocolate with sprinkles, dulce du leche with bananas whipped cream and cinnamon and, Nutella and strawberries. I was I heaven. So good and just awesome. Personal favorite was the banoffee with the bananas and whipped cream. Pizza Rio takes the pizza buffet up not one notch but so many. It takes the idea of the pizza buffet that we know and elevates it to a different and almost glamorous level. You don't leave your seat. The pizza and sides are brought hot and delicious to you. It's taken the pizza buffet that we are used to and elevated it. It's a great place for a date or to impress family and friends with a fun and different place to eat with really good food.

Decor is beautiful with focal points being the wine vault and fireplace! The inside is beautiful with vaulted ceilings and such detail in the decor. The food is DELICIOUS!!! We loved trying literally everything! There was not one pizza we didn't like with our favorites being Broccoli Bacon, Crispy Bacon, Mushroom, and Portuguesa! The Nacho pizza I also super yummy! The sweet pizzas were just as great with our favorites being Strawberry Nutella, Banoffee, Dulce de Leche with Coconut, and Chocolate with Sprinkles! In addition to the pizzas literally every appetizer is amazing! The Caesar and House Salads are dressed well! Loved the arugula in the House Salad; it added such great peppery notes with the tomatoes and slightly sweet house dressing! The chicken wings were crispy and sauced well! We really enjoyed the Garlic Parm, BBQ, and Teriyaki! The meatballs are yummy as well; topped with a delicious marinara sauce and sprinkled with Parmesan! The Strawberry Lemonade is fresh and so flavorful! Overall, I have nothing but amazing things to say about Pizza Rio! Loved our time there eating and chatting with the staff! We are so excited to come back! Sidenote: there is plenty of parking and it was super easy to make a reservation through Yelp! We were running a little late for our reservation. We called and let them know and they were super accommodating!

My boyfriend and I shared a medium margherita pizza, add pepperoni. The crust was delicious - perfect thickness and a great crunch, with nice seasoning. The toppings were also perfect, right amount of sauce, tons of fresh mozz, and fresh basil, and a solid amount of pepperoni. I just ordered inside and they brought it to the picnic table outside for us, but all our interactions with staff were pleasant. It was pretty busy while we were there, both with carry out and on the patio, so it seemed like a consistently good place to grab pizza from. Our meal was just under $30 for the pizza with pepperoni added and a side of garlic sauce. It was plenty for us to share for dinner and my boyfriend had 2 slices leftover for lunch the next day. We would definitely return next time we're in the area!

Everything was bright and clean (even the bathrooms), there are some arcade-like games in the dining room, but it was pretty quiet and comfortable. They even have a drive-thru and take phone orders!

Wife said fish sandwich was good, son said bacon cheeseburger was somewhere between ok and good. I waited 40 minutes for a 7 inch pizza that was a 7 out of ten flavor wise but was semi- warm when it finally made it to the table and all the sausage fell off when you picked it up due to no cheese over it to hold it down. Loaded Cheese fries were decent but could have stood additional toppings....should just call them cheese fries. We were going to split a piece of cake which was reviewed highly but we ordered it and nearly 10 minutes later still no cake soooo we cancelled the cake and paid the nearly 60 dollar bill and hit the door.

We always ask for light sauce on my daughter's pizza because she cannot tolerate a lot of red sauce and they always do it just right! The staff is friendly and helpful. We look forward to our Patriot Pizza day every week! *The photos I am including are from carry out and I took them when we got home 20 minutes away.

The lasagna was amazing, I really enjoyed it. My son ended up getting the spaghetti. He ate all of his food. Garlic knots were delish! You can never go wrong with those.

So I figured a week later I would try again 2nd time, to see if was same or better or worse this time I went in, no customer whatsoever in business, ordered same, 2 10in personal 1 cheese & 1 meatlovers an 1 beverage came to $30.04. Best pizza in the area hands down
