About this restaurant

Innovative
Great for happy hour
Great for brunch

Chef Lynden Zuniga grew up in Honduras, CA and worked in kitchens through high school to pay rent. He quickly realized making people happy through his cooking would be his lifelong passion. Shortly after marrying his wife Sally, they dreamt of their concept of Tio's and in 2018 it became a reality!

Quality matters. We're committed to serve the highest quality steak, pork, chicken, and seafood. Our proteins are always fresh- sourced locally and domestically across the United States.

You'll hear the sizzle of the grill in our open kitchen as each meal is made to order. Pairing our high-quality proteins with our delicious salsas and vegetables, rice, beans, and tortillas is a winning combination. We pride ourselves on making great tasting food made with simple ingredients.

You might be entering Tio's for the first time as a guest, but we hope you leave as a friend. We hope you enjoy your experience. Thank you for dining with us.

Cheers,
Lynden & Sally Zuniga

We sat outside. Nice ambiance. Fed a family of 5 with an appetizer and a dessert for about $150 including a tip. That’s hard to do on the island. Food was good. Not amazing, but we were all well fed and enjoyed our time!

The food was absolutely delicious. We could tell they used fresh ingredients. We were a little misled with their online advertisement of the their Happy Hour deals, but overall, we had a great experience. I will definitely be eating there again!

We went to Tio's during Restaurant Week. We had not been there before and thought it would be a good time to try it out. They were not crowded at all. Only 2 others tables occupied. Service was not the best. Food was marginal.
