The folks at Rio's are ALWAYS so pleasant and courteous! I took my father there for his birthday and he really enjoyed their amazing food, service, and the special birthday treat they surprised him with at the end of our meal. My wife usually accompanies us, but she is in Spain and really wanted to accompany us AGAIN for this most wonderful food. In all, I would say that we have dined at Rio's approximately 10 times over the past 2 years, and EVERY single time, the service is amazing, the food is perfect and in great abundance; and the price is definitely low for the superb quality of food and atmosphere. I VERY HIGHLY recommend the trip to Nazareth, PA for this superb dining experience!!!

Excellent food and service. We had the Brussels sprouts for an appetizer and the moules frites for our main course. Both were great. The mussels were served in a delicious broth. I considered ordering more fries to soak up the extra broth because it was so good. It’s worth checking out.
