Casa Del Rio

There is a reason why Casa del Rio has been packed from the minute it opened: it's got good food, great service, and a cool local vibe. I got a fajita super burro and it was a fantastic value for the price, certainly enough for two meals. Although their rice is a little lackluster, they have the best frozen margarita that I have had anywhere. For me, that and the variety of tasty dishes (try the carnitas, the mole, or #55, or #57, or so many others...) elevate this place from an average mexican restaurant to a great one.

Been coming here for over a decade, and am never disappointed. This is the best Mexican joint in the area, they have a large menu to choose from and the food is always delicious. The workers who own/run the place are all friendly too, if you want good authentic Mexican fare give this place a try.

If you love the chicken tacos here you now need to specify that you want the regular shredded chicken with the veg and sauce that’s slow roasted. They apparently have now started sending plain hunks of chicken on door dash orders because most people don’t like the original shredded chicken. So now after ordering this same item through door dash 5 times and getting the shredded chicken and peppers and onions. This order was plain hunks of chicken with no flavor. After calling to relay my issue the girl laughed at my situation and thought it was funny. Very disrespectful and was unable to solve the issue because I used door dash. This place used to be amazing. Had an issue last time with the queso being very watery and also has no flavor. Same on my current order.

I've been to this establishment twice and it was pretty nice. Reasonable prices, good drinks and food and the customer service was decent. Maybe not the fastest of some Mexican restaurants I've been to, but pretty good overall

This is a good Mexican restaurant. It is clean and there is plenty of seating. The service is polite, friendly and prompt. Apparently, they do not have black beans though. The food is good and the atmosphere is festive and bright. They have a huge covered outdoor patio that looks brand new too.

Staff is attentive and friendly, food comes hot and prepared delicious, drinks are big and tasty (BEST Margaritas in town!), booths and tables are very comfortable, everything is clean, the decor is bright open and colorful. We drive far to come to our favorite restaurant!!!! Love it here

Probably the freshest , tastiest meat I've had in a fajita in awhile. I actually ate everything. This was amazing 👏. I will be back when in the area. If your looking for a place in the area do not miss out.

If you want great Mexican food, you really should go to Casa Del Rio. I had Juan as my waiter. He is quick and eager to please his customers. Five stars is not enough 😊

The service is great. The food is great. Typical Mexican restaurant atmosphere. Love this place!

Great service. Our waiter was super friendly and fun. Food is always good-I wouldn't call it great Mexican food but it's good. If you're looking for a fun place with great service and good food, you won't be disappointed.

Super Great visit w my father. He had the Chicken Quesadilla with lettuce guacamole I didn't catch the type but regardless the thing is, it was stuffed lots of chicken and other ingredients unlike many places where you'll get a little meat and cheese and that is it! I got the Carne Sanmarco (new item) it's tender steak with whole chipotle peppers, tomato's, onion grilled zucchini served w rice, beans and sour cream salad so very very good. 3 Tortillas on the side which was a great way to gobble up a good amount of a big dish !

I moved out of town a few years ago and every time I come home... mandatory casa trip. I get the #59 with cilantro, pineapple salsa on the side. Staff are dual languages, fast and friendly. This is a Wadsworth staple for a reason.

Carryout orders. They charge 1.99 for a small container of salsa. If you eat in the restaurant it's free. Sneak around to make extra money. I will never eat there again.

Best margarita's in Wadsworth! Dine in and carry out are both always successful. We have never had a bad meal here. Even on the busy nights food is still served to us hot and correctly.

Good guacamole, fresh chips chicken taco . Service very fast. Waiter very attentive. Clean restaurant.

Great food and service. Went on a Friday night and was PACKED. Recommend looking at the a la carte items to tack on to your me as well Will def return, and will check out the express in fairlawn as well to see if any differences

I was at CDR on Sunday 4/27/2025. I think I was one of the last customers to arrive. They did not rush me at all. But the main event was the food. I got the combination with two Chili Relleno. They were fantastic. The batter was very good and egg rich which was amazing considering the price of eggs. Compared to most places the Chili Rellenos were fantastic. (Almost to the degree of Villa Y Zapota [my gold standard] or the now-closed Luchita W 117.). I would rate them "A" for sure!!! If you love Chili Relleno, this is the place to come!

Casa is without a doubt, one of the best!... I eat at restaurants three weeks out of every month as I travel for business and travel internationally for fun. Casa would hold its own to any of the restaurants that I frequent. Flavors are excellent, service is truly exceptional and I've never had a better margarita!

Come hungry! Portions are huge! We were able to be seated right away even though on a Sunday afternoon, the place was crowded. Chips, salsa, utensils and menus were brought right away to our table. Shortly afterward, our server took our drink and guacamole order. Very nice, helpful and attentive staff! The guacamole was good; very fresh and tasty! For my meal, I ordered the Azteca Sampler. Delicious! Loved it and had enough for two meals. Enjoyed having both chicken and beef in it. My spouse really liked the burro he ordered. It was also big enough for two meals. All food is freshly prepared here. The margarita--also delicious! Prices are really good here too. Enjoyed eating here!

I love this place so much I had my birthday dinner here. The food is classic Mexican, done well. It's authentic. The "boss" is Mexican as are many of the servers. They are great at making accommodations like pushing tables together, changing up menu items, etc. I don't drink, but my friends said the margaritas were great. It's a fun atmosphere out on the patio, which is covered.

This location is very busy! The servers are very attentive to our needs! Food is good too. The reason for this low star rating is .... There is hardly any room to move at this restaurant. You are in your neighbors lap and god forbid they know someone walking by, they will stand there with their purses or kids in your dinner plate. If you are claustrophobic... this is not the place for you! If you are a couple going out to eat, they place you at a table that barely fits you and your drinks let alone the dinner plates. Yikes! Not much you can do other than ... Take out!!!!!!

I absolutely love going to Casa del Rio! The food tastes great, is affordable, and the people who work there are extremely friendly. I couldn't recommend a better restaurant to go to!

The food here was amazing. The service was prompt and accurate. The staff was courteous and knowledgeable of the dishes and attentive to our needs. We had a rather large group and our server did an amazing job. The restaurant was clean and well kept. We absolutely will go again.

I can see, after having dinner here, why this place is so busy and so well-rated. It's definitely one of your best meal options in the area. I'm not sure how well it compares to other Mexican restaurants in the area, but then again, I don't feel the need to check. First, there's those drinks, particularly those margaritas, that come in sturdy, Holy Grail sized goblets. When we raised them to toast, some folks at the table needed to hold them with both hands. You get about twice as much margarita here as you might for the same price at similar restaurants out my way. Follow that with warm, delicious chips and good salsa. Then there's your food, brought out quite fast, and lots of it. This was the first time in a long time that for an order of fajitas, I actually got enough tortillas to use everything on the plate without having to ask for more. Larger groups might have a problem being seated together during busier hours, so consider being willing to break into smaller groups... fewer hands grabbing your drinks that way too.

Great food, great service, and great people! It is 100% authentic Mexican and dishes are very generous, delicious, and fast. Even carry out!

This review can be short and sweet: Casa del Rio checks all the boxes for what I expect from your town Mexican joint. They're highly rated, and I suppose that's mostly for the service and atmosphere. For me, you can't really go wrong with whatever you bring out to me at a Mexican restaurant. What is this? Did I order enchiladas, tacos, a burrito, tamales? I donno, but dang this looks good. Naturally, every table is served with complimentary chips and salsa. Of course, I always recommend a bowl of guac to go along with it. Most meals come out with rice, beans, and a little salad. Prices are already good, but come by at lunch for the best deals. Service really is fast, friendly, and unbeatable. It's worth even a drive out of your way to eat here.

Crazy busy all the time Hugh take out business Food at s good quality and consistent been there four times Service is consistent and good all be it they are very busy Having been to Mexico 30 times the food dishes and quality are very good and close to authentic although not as spicy That's probably good for most people I highly recommend Get there early or be prepared to wait 10-35 minutes on average Al

I remember enjoying Casa Del Rio when we lived in Wadsworth. I picked up carry out on my way through Wadsworth and ordered chicken fajitas. The chicken was SO DRY, salty, and unpleasant. The entire thing went straight in the trash. The side plate was watery lettuce, a tablespoon of guacamole and a small squirt of sour cream. I'll be sure to drive by next time. Salsa and chips were good... and my dinner. Bummer.

Friendly and as always incredibly fast service. One of our favorites in the area for Mexican. You can also see how hard they are trying to keep everything safe with the regulations. They have a HUGE heated outdoor tent in the back too. Their queso is so good.

No wonder the parking lot was packed when we first arrived! You are in for a real treat at Casa Del Rio! Rare do I ever comment about our excursions to Mexican Restaurants, but the staff here runs like a well oiled machine! The owner is even out on the floor like a true team player making sure his guests have everything they need to enjoy their time there. We had a party of 8 and were seated in less time than promised. The menu has an abundance of authentic Mexican Treats. Everyone enjoyed their food and we all had leftovers, since the portions were more than filling! Thank you for a wonderful evening! We'll definitely be back.

Fantastic, quick, affordable! Casa Del Rio is one of the best Mexican restaurants in the area and a place I recommend to everyone who is looking for great Mexican food. Being located directly off the highway is convenient for almost anyone. The parking lot is always full but don't let that make you hesitant because there is plenty of seating available. I didn't have to wait long despite how busy the parking lot was. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. As I was seated the chips and salsa were placed on the table and waters quickly followed. I ordered the super burrito and asked if I could swap the protein options with chorizo. The chorizo is one of the best I've had out of any other Mexican restaurants I've been to. The food came out almost as quick as I ordered it. The water and salsa were refilled throughout my meal without needing to ask. I always look forward to coming back here.

the food is always good, drinks are about average, and staff is amazing! it's your average mexican restaurant when you walk in, the p

One of my favorite Mexican places in the area! I ordered the #43 fajitas and as always they were great! Meat was cooked perfectly and the veggies had a lot of flavor. The staff is always very friendly and fun! I don't remember there being an outdoor eating area in the past but maybe it was added due to COVID but I enjoyed eating outside!

Authentic Mexican food, very fast service, good environment. Rene rocks, so do the others.

Business has Great food, done fast with good customer service. Never disappointed when we dine here.

What can be said? This is the best Mexican restaurant in the area! Plenty of parking, a lot of seating at tables and booths in a colorful and festive atmosphere. The waiters are friendly and accommodating when a substitution is requested. The generous potions of their outstanding food is served very quickly, and their frozen margaritas are quite refreshing! My wife and I are regular visitors, and so will you once you try their food, but get there early or you will have to wait!

My best friend and I love this place. We've been going to Casa for 20yrs. Have never had a bad meal here. Salsa is the best around.

Great food Service always great never any issues one of the best Mexican restaurants around

Our favourite Mexican joint in the Akron area. We live out of state now; still haven't found a Mexican restaurant better than Casa. We can't come to town without getting it at least once.

As we continue our quest to go to the entire list of the top 20 Mexican restaurants in Cleveland proper today we are going to #2 today. They sure know how to pick them. This was awesome. We passed it up the first time as it is a bit tucked behind the Marathon. We also found out that they are opening a second location in Fairlawn. A bit closer for us but we'd certainly make the trip back to Wadsworth. I had a skirt steak dish with ham and bacon and poblano peppers. What a perfect kick in spices. I put it in a corn tortilla. My husband even had one of mine as I could t drop raving about it. And of course a sangria to top it off.

Casa Del Rio is my family's and my favorite local Mexican restaurant. The foods really good, portions plentiful. We usually order it to go to eat at home and they don't scrimp on the portions for to go orders. Love their #41 with chicken, that's mine and my husbands usual order. Casa is always busy and a local favorite.

Very conveniently located right off the exit from 76. Really solid overall. It was packed on a rainy Sunday lunch yet we got seated quickly, and waited on very promptly. Our waiter was engaging and attentive. We did not have to flag him down for refills and he checked in most every time he walked by! Our drinks came quickly with the complimentary chips and salsa. My wife loved the chips - warm and very little salt (I had to add salt), and liked the salsa - mild and flavorful ( I added some hot sauce). Her chipotle quesadilla was very tasty - loved the bacon in it - but it could have used a bit more cheese. Margarita was large & good. The fajita de la casa was also good. Well seasoned and cooked like I asked - well done. Net a repeat if we are in the area again.

We have been going since they opened. Our #1 Mexican restaurant by huge margin over any other. We have tried almost everything on the menu and have not found anything we did not like. Orders come out pretty quick and are hot. The food is fresh and great tasting and portion sizes big enough to have you waddling back to the car if you can eat them without getting a to go box for later. We have always had stellar service, everyone is very friendly and takes care of you.

It's always busy, but the food is AMAZING! Always fresh, hot, and yummy. The staff is always friendly and accommodating, and the atmosphere is energetic. I highly recommend going here if you're visiting from out of town, or a local that just hasn't tried it yet!

Great Mexican plus great service! Their Margaritas are strong and worth the money. Atmosphere and friendliness are always there.

Casa Del Rio is a small Mexican restaurant just off of I-76 in Wadsworth. They offer a clean, quality, and authentic Latino environment at a pretty reasonable cost. We arrived late in a Thursday evening and to our surprise, the place was packed! However, though there was a line peeking out the door when we arrived, we were met with but only a 5 minute wait to get a table. Thereafter, we promptly received our drinks, and issued our dinner orders: I opted for their Quesadilla Supreme. (Steak and cheese, with guacamole, sour cream, lettuce, and pico on the side) Not much long after, our food arrived. The presentation was very respectable, and the flavor was excellent! The tortilla was finely toasted, and the steak cooked perfectly. For the sides, the lettuce, pico, and guacamole were very fresh and tasty as well. My only complaint was they used VERY low fat sour cream, and consequently, the latter had a very thin watery taste to it. However, this is admittedly subjective, and will not affect my rating. The service was excellent! Our waiter was very polite, and kept us stocked on drinks our entire visit. All in all, if your looking for a quality Mexican restaurant that does everything right without costing you 1 arm and 1 leg, (~$25-30 for 2 people) look no further than Casa Del Rio. The food is excellently presented, very tasty, and the staff is very friendly. Highly Recommended!

Food is average, margaritas are average, service is good. There are better Mexican restaurants within a reasonable distance.

The most overhyped restaurant in. It's not good. Way overpriced. They always forget items. They always overcharge you.

Never disappointing no matter whether you eat in or dine out! Staff is attentive and keeps drinks and food flowing

We love to visit casa for dinners when we have a lot of people to feed. This restaurant is a lot of fun and the quality of food and service is consistent.

Great little mex restaurant Best I've found in the area Help is always great and the food is ggood

Standard Mexican place. The food is ok and service is good but it's not going to blow your socks off. Margaritas are ok but the strawberry is super sweet.

Excellent Mexican food at great prices. Curbside pickup available. Great margaritas in several flavors.

I have been here a countless number of times over the years. It is great for cheap Mexican-American food. Chips and salsa come out right away and water is always refilled quickly. I would definitely recommend to a fried.

Talk about MASSIVE portions! I thought the prices were a bit high for Ohio and Mexican food but my burrito was literally bigger than my head. I got a margarita and I'm not sure if it was cheaper alcohol or what but felt sick immediately. The food was good just too much. Nice atmosphere but tables a bit close. Definitely recommend side items if not super hungry.

This place is SO good!!!! We stumbled upon it after Apple picking one Saturday afternoon. We decided to grab some lunch here and we've been hooked ever since! My favorite thing on their lunch menu is the loaded bowl. It comes with rice, beans, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, and your choice of meat (I got steak). It's the best thing on the menu!!! I like their dinner options but desperately wish they'd add a bigger bowl on there for dinner. I was disappointed when I asked if I could get the bowl for dinner and was told no. Their queso is yummy but skip the jalapeños bc they're fresh and raw.

Quick service, fun and very clean atmosphere and excellent fresh food! Casa also gives back to the community!
