This was a walk to find lunch. The menu was simple and our food was fresh! I would recommend the burrito bowl! Really good! This was a one man show, the man took our order, cooked our food and brought it all out to us. The seating is minimal. Just 4 window seats. read more

Food was INCREDIBLE. Haven't been this impressed in a long time. Server was lovely and sweet as well. Can't recommend enough!

I didn't catch our servers name but it was his first day and he did amazing! Made me two delicious margaritas and was so friendly. Was a natural. Food was great and so were the portions and prices. read more

Went here looking for the amazing salad they have pictured in the reviews. It no longer exists. They also don't have guacamole or avocados at all. The restaurant smells like heavy cleaning detergents so we sat outside. The waitress was very friendly and the staff seemed nice. The red salsa was super hot and had a vinegar flavor too it .... Maybe a bit old? I'd asked to have the creme sauce for my fish tacos on the side, but it seemed like they didn't want to ask the kitchen to do that? So .... The fish on the fish tacos was thin, breaded and deep fried .... Is that normal, maybe... Anyway, the experience was mediocre at best. read more

Good food and good service. And finally a hot sauce that was actually hot. She even brought us a complementary flan for our anniversary. So very sweet! read more

I had the fish tacos and friend had the chicken tostadas. They were both excellent. Even the mojito was delicious! Great food, great service. If we lived in town we'd definitely make this a regular stop. As it is we'll have to wait for our next visit. read more

Just finishing up dinner here at this magnificent restaurant Taco Rio. This is about the best Street food restaurant I've ever had outside of Mexico. Come hungry order lots and enjoy... they will blow your mind away with their drinks and food and it is absolutely amazing. read more

The chosen venue for a late-afternoon dinner during or stay in Harrison last week. We arrived shortly after 4 pm, and asked to be seated outside on their attached patio. A nice setting. Our server was prompt in initial service of menus, but way too quick in seeking our orders. Heh, we had just sat down, and received menus. I asked for a little time to peruse what she had just brought. Service throughout the rest of the meal was fine, once I had settled down some of that initial anxiousness. And it was always friendly throughout our stay. We received two menus - a limited option 'happy hour' one, and the regular (main) one, which listed all the food and beverage offerings. Our order: from the happy hour menu - two beverages (Sleeman Honey Brown Lagers, for daughter and I), and Rio wings -- and from the rgular menu - three spicy chickem=n tacos, and beef brisket burrito. Food preparations were definitely flavourful and tasty, but 'ouch', more than just a touch too spicy hot. We would sure prefer, and appreciate having them serve their very hot & spicy sauces out of the preparations, alongside the meal, to be added as the customer wished (as we have experienced at taco stands and restaurants in Mexico). The beer and wings sure hit the spot -- the other preparations missed the mark. A fun dining experience, but service was a little awkward, and the food preparations fell a touch short for us this time. read more

Got the cauliflower tacos from here and holy WOW I was blown away! The flavours were so well balanced and fresh. I was really surprised. Definitely want to come back here again and try more dishes. Overall: impressed read more

Portobello tacos were outstanding! We really enjoyed our lunch meal! Large portions! Eat here!

What a tasty surprise! My friend and I just happened to see this spot on Yelp when we were hungry and in the area and it definitely surpassed our expectations! Our server was incredibly sweet and friendly, the food was delicious, the jalapeño margaritas were dangerous (I wanted 3 more but had to drive back to vancouver so I kept it to 1...) and the churros were the best I've ever tasted! As someone who's lived in Mexico, I do have to say that the meals felt like a much more "Americanized" version of Mexican food, as opposed to being super authentic, but it was still delicious and I'd happily go back! read more

This was a great place for us to eat with our dog. Excellent food, terrific service, lovely outdoor area. We would definitely go back!

Best Cauliflower tacos I've had. Very good service and dog friendly too. Nice outdoor covered area

Food was delicious, portions were ginormous. Service was friendly and attentive. Quaint, small Mexican restaurant with affordable prices, unlike those within Harrison Hot Springs. 5 minute drive from town (10 minute walk from our rv park), definitely recommend. read more

This place is outstanding. It is now my go to when heading out to Harrison for a ride. The outside seating is lovely and the latino music really sets the tone. The shrimp tacos were the best i have ever had. I highly recommend. read more

We just ordered a bunch of tacos from here as an afternoon snack. They were AMAZING! I wish they were open tomorrow. We would be ordering them again. So yummy! Great service ! Super safe read more

Taco "rio terrible" We gave these guys two shots as we really wanted a taco place near, ended up wasting my money 2x. First time we had the pork burrito, chicken burrito and the kids had a beef and a fish taco. It was edible but really bland with no real flavor. The second time we ordered the shrimp tacos. The soft corn tortillas were so old and stale we couldn't even chew through them, we ended up eating the contents but once again, bland. Very, very bland. I've never seen food look as good as theirs does and have it turn out to be so awful. Also the older man they have at the front desk is one incredibly odd man with no customer service or real social abilities and you can't call in your order.. you legit have to go there, order and then sit in your car until its ready as they have no dine in either. Just weird. Really disappointed as we wanted to love them! read more

Food was alright, wouldn't recommend the beans as they don't seem like your typical refried beans. The beef in the beef burrito was pretty tasty. Salsa/ guac and chips was pretty good. Wasn't too keen on the service though. Not a lot of people in the restaurant, yet it took an hour for the chips n dip. Very shortly after our food came out. I'll give this a place another go, and let ya guys know. read more

Sooo tasty. Tacos were quite substantial with the fillings. Fresh ingredients and variety of flavours. ordered online with curb side pick up. quick and easy. Will go back! read more

Finally made it here last week. Had a great leisurely lunch. A few tacos, pico de salsa and chips. And one of my favourite beers, Negra Modela. read more

Great food and customer service. The young gentleman was super friendly. With such a positive attitude. He really made us feel welcome and motivated to come back. We got the crispy chicken tacos and the Triple Threat quesidillas. All of the food was super tasty. I like spicy food whereas my bf can't handle spicy. So it was a pretty good balance. The tacos had a bit of a kick. The quesidillas were tasty and had a nice flavor. They would have been perfect if I had a side of some hot sauce or some spicy salsa. This is more a personal preference. We also had churro bites and horchata. Omg they were both delicious!!!!! read more

This was an amazing restaurant. We came here last night with a huge party of 16 people. Our server Shannon was incredible. The food was great and the service was just impeccable. read more

It may have been a bad night, but many things did not go well for our dinner. Much of the food was missing flavour and included the fish tacos, beef short rib, and refried beans. After sharing about the refried bean's lack of flavour, the waitress suggested other sides, which we chose from. Upon checking out, we were charged for all 3 sides totaling $15, with a "generous" $0.50 discounted. More money was spent getting a replacement appetizer... and it was discounted a measly 4%. The waitress was pleasant when AT the table, but could have been more attentive. We needed to leave the table and look for the waitress at the kitchen to share that the food lacking flavour. It seems like other people have had good experiences. This was not one of them. read more

Expensive for what you get. No dishes come with sides and you pay at least $20 a dish. Nice outdoor patio. Had cauliflower burrito. It was good though was heavy on the rice, not the cauliflower. Friend s chicken quesedilla was scant and only one dip. Menu could use some work, but getting there. read more

Stopped in for lunch last week. Waitress was very friendly and the food was not bad. Nothing earth shattering but a good alternative to the fifty other burger joints in the area read more

Shares the Beef and Crispy Chicken Tacos with my wife, with an Old Yale Mango Wheat beer. Fantastic!

I've been wanting to go for quite along time. Tonight the husband was out so I took my daughter for dinner. We live in Rosedale only 12 mins away. First impressions is that it is very casual. We sat outside and did not have to wait to long. We both ordered a margarita. It was very good. Dinner was the beef taco and crispy chicken taco. I did ask the waitress if the chicken was thigh or breast. She said I don't know? You think she would of inquired? She said do you want cheese on both of the meals? We said sure. We didn't wait long. My daughters meal was okay. Mine was awful. Chicken taco served in a meat tray lined with parchment. It was messy and soggy and dripping with all kinds of sauce and salsa everywhere. I had to try and eat with utensils. Well that didn't work well as the parchment paper got soggy and become part of my meal! I was disgusted. Left most behind cause who wants to eat parchment paper! We got the bill. Both meals were $20 each. No problem but to charge $4.50 each for a sprinkle of cheese was crazy! Subway doesn't even charge that! I questioned the waitress and she says again I do t know‍. Will never be back and won't recommend to anyone I know. Waitress was awful. Didn't give a care about her customers. I wish I took my daughter else where read more

Taco Rio - Margarita - Mexican Near Me - Harrison Hot Springs, British Columbia

Good location on your way to the lake...Great food especially the shrimp tacos! A great addition to the area

My friends and I decided to go for dinner here since we all love Mexican food and the restaurant appealed to us since it has a trendy feel. Unfortunately we all had a bad experience. They had no chicken, which is what most of us planned to get; getting this knowledge before we sat down would have been preferred. As well if you are going with a group, they don't split the cost of appetizers, meaning one person has to pay. We ordered chips and guac for the table which were delicious but left us feeling awkward when we had to pick one person to pay for the rest of us. Had we split it with the group it would have been about $2-3 each. None of us carry cash so we couldn't even pay back our friend that paid for all of us. Our server also messed up our bills, but she sorted it out. The food however was delicious, I recommend the pork. read more

Not at all impressed. Soggy fish taco, could hardly find the small piece of fish in the sloppy mess. Shrimp was overdone in the shrimp taco..so crunchy that it was hard to tell where the tail ended & the shrimp began. Meat in the burrito was over cooked & crunchy. Server insisted that we needed cheese on everything, but no mention anywhere of the upcharge. If there was cheese in the tacos, it must have been liquefied as it was unidentifiable. Lime margarita tasted far too sweet, tasted like pineapple juice served in an old-fashion glass filled mostly with ice cubes. Discolored, grungy looking aluminum mini-cookie sheets did not add anything positive to the dining experience. read more

The best margaritas we've ever had 10/10 recommend you must come here when going to Harrison hot springs!!!! So good we love Cynthia

It is always something with this place which is to bad considering they are close and the food has been occasional good enough to go back but 5 strikes and I'm done with you as well as no more word of mouth referrals read more

Awesome place! Me and my wife stopped by for a quick bite and were thoroughly impressed. Our server "Cynthia" (I believe that's her name) was super nice and made us feel welcome. We ordered the beef short rib rice bowl, 3 types of tacos, with churros and all were so incredibly delicious! Definitely should check out Taco Rio whenever you visit Harrison Hot Springs, you won't be disappointed! 5/5 read more

Had the crispy cauliflower burrito with jalapeño chedder. Was amazing. Whole family loved our meals.

This spot was amazing. We went for supper and then again for lunch the next day. This is actually a 5 star rating. We had fish tacos (THE BEST) and the short rib (pictured) read more

I don't like leaving bad reviews but I used to love Taco Rio but the service has declined and the burritos keep getting smaller each time. We called a few weeks ago at 7:35pm to place an order and we're declined because they closed at 8pm. It was very unfortunate. I like to give places the benefit of the doubt, so we will try again as we live local and I like supporting local businesses. read more

We are NEVER disappointed going here...Except when they were all out of churros for the night one evening but that was disappointment due to not getting a taste of their Amazing churros and Dulce hahaha. Highly recommend any Mexican fan to go here, and any non mexican fan, well you should go here too because they might change your mind... read more

Food was average, service was quite slow that day but may be due to the reopening after the pandemic. Chicken wings was my favourite part of the meal. read more

Amazing food, amazing service. It's a shame the pandemic is currently on as they can only do takeout right now; their building is gorgeous on the inside. Don't really have anything else to say about it. Eat here. read more
