    Parmesan cheese sandwich
    Jackie W.

    Corey was super friendly , fresh tomatoe basil soup was magnifico texture, the beet salad was fresh with roasted red pepper goat cheese. We will return for fresh pasta and sauce !!

    We got a '20 pizza 1/2 Arkansas Pepperoni and the other 1/2 being  Rio Grande, would highly recommend this place!

    Our waiter was great, the food was delicious and the wait time was good. (: The view of the Arkansas River was beautiful.

    Our view from a table on the patio! March 2nd.

    Excellent pizza! I look forward to going back. It's a bit pricey, especially if you make your own with a lot of toppings. It's in the best location and the patio views of the Arkansas River are really nice!

    Spent the day exploring Salida and had our dog with us so looking for a dog friendly restaurant and found Pizza Rio with their outdoor patio on the rooftop. Great views and loved sitting outside in a beautiful day watching people use the river and play. Served greeted us promptly and gave us time to look over the menu. We ordered the Paddler Hand-crushed tomato sauce, smoked provolone, pears, walnuts, gorgonzola & arugula, with fresh chives. Finished with a balsamic reduction glaze and added sausage to it! Wonderful. They brought the dog a water dish which was super nice Best way to enjoy a vacation lunch on a beautiful Colorado day!!

    This review does not cover the food, just service, as we did not get to eat here. We came in town from camping with our dogs and were recommended to eat here as they allow dogs on the patio. We were told to wait 5-10 minutes for a patio table. We had to wait there as there are no reservations or holds. They were kind and brought us water while we waited (odd that we were told to wait inside with the dogs but could not order food inside). Yay - our table is ready. My husband went to the table before me and was told no, we can't have the table. It was reserved. After much back and forth about whether tables can be reserved we were told it was because it was for friends of the owners. We could wait longer for another table. Um, no. Not going to do that. So we are elsewhere.

    Bloody Mary

    From start to finish, what a fantastic dining experience at Pizza Rio. The restaurant is super cute. Think beach house vibes. It was within walking distance of where we were staying and is now my first choice spot for future visits to Salida. Lots of fresh food options on the menu and top-notch service from every staff member we interacted with throughout our meal. I ordered the Cold Italian sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious. One of the freshest sandwiches I've ever tasted, and it's making my mouth water just thinking about it. My partner had a spaghetti dish that was so good, it made me regret not ordering it for myself. And of course, their spicy Bloody Mary was a deliciously perfect complement to the food. We even ordered a cheese pizza to-go for the kids, and they loved it. Fun and laid-back atmosphere that can get busy, especially for larger crowds. I didn't know much about Salida before this trip, and now I'm simply amazed by the quality of service and ingredients this town is capable of. Would love to check out the outdoor seating when the weather is warmer.

    Chicken Parmesan Sandwich

    Amazing riverside patio with super friendly service, quick and delicious food. Our chicken parm sandwich and Greek salad were just divine. The vodka sauce is not spicy at all, but real flavorful. I would definitely come back through to grab another one and try the pizza.

The restaurant was moved because a larger kitchen needed however we didn't know where. Now we found it. It's much larger and menu looks expanded. Nicky decorated and cozy. We were greeted by Trevor who sat us and waited on us as well. He was always available for any questions we had or service needed. We got a couple beers and ordered. I had shrimp pho and my wife had chicken pho. The taste was incredible ( I also enjoy a good pho ) and portions just right per size. We were attended to make sure our needs were met. Pawnee ( spelling ?? ) greeted us and thanked us for stopping in. She is the owner. She made us feel welcomed and special customer. Another couple of customers came in while we dined. We seen them get something from a cooler; so I asked what it was. Sticky rice with blueberries. I asked for one ( I've had sticky rice in Thailand before ) Trevor treated me to a serving. It was just like I remembered. Definitely will be back to dine again. If you're in Salida make it a point to stop in.

    We just had dinner with Phanny and her team at their restaurant's new location near WalMart. As…read morealways, excellent food, great service and a nice venue. We believe Little Cambodia cooks their food with an extra bit of love in each plate. Everyone clearly cares about taking great care of us, their customers. You're simply wonderful, Thanks again, Bill & Kirk
