    Keeping it Simple.

    Coming here never disappoints. The pizza is always delicious. The staff is amazing! And the vibe is super chill and cool. It doesn't get easier than this.

    As long time customers, Rio's pizza never disappoints! Always a crowd pleaser! I like the consistency in food throughout the years. Pizza slices are always thick, so cheesy and full of savory flavors! You pull that slice apart and you're instantly pulling cheese! So delicious! We've tried many toppings and they are all amazing. Pricing is average or a little above for similar pizza joints. I think the pricing is well worth since this pizza is seriously the best around! We called the order in and it was ready within thirty minutes. Upon pick up; the boxes were still very hot and steam creeping out of the pizza boxes and smelled divine. This pizza joint is always busy, clean and overall a great atmosphere for family dining and gatherings with friends.

    Saw this resturant on instagram and was in the area so I decided to stop by. I really try my best to support family restaurants, Rios was a hit forsure. The restaurant was busy but the cashiers worked fast! Ordered a pepperoni pizza with half jalapeno and pineapple. I must say the cheese pull on the pizza was a 10/10. Their bread is fluffy and they do not skimp on the cheese. Personal preference but I do prefer more red sauce on my pies. Over all a good pizza, the slices are heavy so take home was a must for me. Thank you Rio's Pizza

    Good pizza but like other smaller pizza places they can be pricey as I want a little bit of everything!!Worth it to support a local pizza place but have to do it in moderation. Place was clean and staff was nice. Would love a thinner version of the pizza.

    Pizza Goodness, mamá approved. But she's not a fan of garlic , oops !

    I have heard so much about Rios pizza that I had to come to experience it! Loved the sauce , cheese n dough! That's what makes for a great pizza! All my summers growing up I spent it in NY and I love pizza since I can remember ! I've been here 2x and the first time we ordered take out, the 2x it was dine in. The ambience is your typical pizza joint (kids , friends n family) . The counter staff at the register are hustlers taking orders. Sadly enough the front of house staff member was not friendly. I had ordered a coke/Pepsi, beer n water. The waitress finally came and it wasn't so busy at the time and she did't seem like she wanted to be there as you can tell in her demeanor. Strangely enough she was friendly to the men, but not the woman, me included. She placed the water and soda on our table pretty hard and water spilled a bit, not a care in the world . I asked her as she walked away about my beer and she replied back saying she can't give it to me , "you need to get it up front from the ladies ". I got to the counter and asked for my beer because their waitress said she couldn't give it me and that I needed to get it up front. It was frustrating ! All this time she just had an attitude and I was trying my best to keep it chill. I informed the lady at the counter what happened and if that's the process and she said no and was apologetic . I did reply that they should tell her to go home if she doesn't feel Ike working . The ladies up front were kind! I walked to the restroom and when I started to walk to my seat she's passing by me and slightly bumps my shoulder and doesn't excuse herself, very rude. Again, I'm maintaining my cool. I get to my seat and she passes by us, no excuse me or even asked if it's ok to open the blinds, she squeezes between my mother and the table to open .the blinds that is the table to the left of the door entrance . Very rude person. I asked her if there as a problem and she looked at me and walked away. She needs love in her life because behaviors like that detour good customers from coming back. . I traveled 35 miles to come here with zero expectations despite the Yelp reviews. I'm in the food hospitality business for 30 yrs as both a chef , chef instructor and food safety expert/ auditor in the industry and staff members like her kills businesses . She needs some retraining . I don't want the overall rating to suffer due to poor behavior from this waitress because the pizza was delicious I'll try this place 1 more time. Thank you and I truly hope the owner sees this comment so they are able to observe , address it and get better.

    Been coming here since 1996 and honestly its still amazing. John and the staff are friendly and welcoming even when its busy it still show loves in the place.

    All the simple, small reviews add up too big wins for local businesses

    Some of the best pizza around in the Los Angeles area MONTEBELLO to be exact I've been coming here since I was 12 years old same recipe same dough love the pepperoni the cheese with light sauce. It's definitely a family atmosphere if you're craving some good pepperoni pizza I encourage you guys to pull up to Rio's Pizza in Montebello. You won't be disappointed always good service.

    Great little spot. The pizza has a nice, chewy crust, and the prices are reasonable. The wings were tasty too, flavorful and well done.

    I love the bread at Rio pizza. It tastes like "Bolio" a Spanish bread. Fresh. Has an old school pizzeria vibe to it.

    On a Friday night in late January. My hubby and I went to dinner here. It was our first time there…read more We parked on the side street and walked to the restaurant. Inside has lots of booths and long tables for big parties. The waitress gave us a booth and menu. Nice ambiance of playing music in the background. Our server was nice and she gave us free bread and butter. I ordered chicken Parmesan with spaghetti with house salad and Pepsi drink $24.95 with chicken wings. The bread arrived and it was soft with butter pieces. Next our Soda arrived in Xlg cups with salad. I was almost full then my chicken Parmesan arrived. It's very saucy and cheesy with bites of chicken Parmesan. Also the spaghetti was cooked just right. The waitress checked in our table several times even though she has quite of customers.

    SGV is known for their Asian food but wanted to try an Italian restaurant for a change. We dined on…read morea Saturday evening around 6 pm. We were greeted by the host and waited about 2-3 minutes to be seated. There were around 4 or 5 tables that were already seated and/or eating. Setting: typical western restaurant with booths and tables. Quite dark inside. We were sat at a booth but the seats had a bunch of residual bread crumbs on them. We had to ask a waiter/busboy to clean off the seats for us. Food: This restaurant is known for their pizza so we ordered their signature pizza to share. We also ordered the fried zucchini appetizer and the spaghetti bolognese which came with a side (Minestrone soup) There was complimentary bread and butter for the table - it was soft and fluffy on the inside and had a nice crust. But it came out cold. Would have been better if it was warmed up. Fried zucchini: well breaded, came with ranch. Portion size was ok, not too big but not too little either. But quite expensive at $11 for an appetizer that did not WOW the table. Minestrone Soup: average, quite salty, given it is early in the evening, the soup should not be this salty whereas the end of the day usually means the soup has been reduced and concentrated by warming/simmering. Spaghetti Bolognese: plenty of meat in the sauce and pretty tasty as well; but the biggest flaw was that the spaghetti was way overcooked. Huge negative for an Italian restaurant - the base/pasta of your dishes should be perfect and this was far from Al dente. Petrillo Signature Pizza: loaded with toppings, they did not cheap out with the toppings and pretty tasty as well; however, another big flaw was that the dough was dry and dense - the dough did not rise. The yeast in the dough was either non-existent or was not given enough time to rise and create the fluffy dough and crust texture of a typical pizza. We basically got dense flatbread. As this was the signature pizza, it was quite disappointing. Service: Average, nothing great. The servers came by a couple times only after the food came out. Could have really stopped by a couple more time to check in. Rating: 2 stars Review summary is based on mainly food quality as the quality of the food, attention to detail, and execution all was very subpar. Given the kitchen was not super busy on a Saturday evening, the poor quality leaves much to desire.
