I recently ordered takeout from Tres Caminos and was very unhappy with the food, service and condition of the restaurant. My chicken taco salad was dismal: the chicken was shredded and looked and tasted dry. It was a very small serving, and the bill was More than $12.00 - more than posted on the online menu. The other item, enchiladas verdes, was a tiny serving, only one enchilada, not three as listed on the online menu. Why so stingy?? The total bill was $48.00 - wrong price and way overcharged! No beverage, no side sauces, nada! The fellow at the counter offered no explanation, and quickly looked away. The whole place was a mess - old and tired looking. I notice that your place is popular And I'm surprised. It seems like folks have gotten use to mediocre food, high prices and rundown environment. It must be the margaritas...

On Friday, April 24, 2026 myself and two other family members came to enjoy a meal and drinks as…read morewould do often. However, tonight's experience was very disappointing due to a waitress who apparently didn't want to wait on us. Upon arrival, we asked if we could sit in the bar area and was led to a dirty table. Instead of her wiping the table and removing the trash that was left behind by previous patrons, the waitress places the menus down and starts to walk away. My aunt then asked if she could remove the trash and wipe the table. The waitress looked angry, walked over to an employee who was wiping another table, took the cloth from her then proceeded to walk over to our table. She didn't bother to rinse the towel or apply more cleaner but wiped the table and walked away with an attitude. My family and I decided to leave instead of staying to see what other trifling and rude service we were in store for. When my family member called the manager, he said the waitress is nice and something must have happened to her for her to act that way. Say what?! He actually made an excuse for her nastiness towards us and thought it was ok. No thank you! We will not spend our dollars where we are mistreated. That's your job to make sure the tables are clean and to be of service. We had a very enjoyable experience with staff and food at Rio Grande! After pleasantly greeting us, the waitress said "let me make sure your table is clean" before she escorted us to a table.

As always, the service was friendly and attentive. My server had a larger group of 10 at another table, but he still was able to give me a single diner attentive service as well. Also, my Chava's Quesadilla with shrimp was top notch. I recently have become obsessed with having shrimp in my Mexican food and their version of a quesadilla with shrimp, satisfied my craving. I also appreciated their presentation on the plate and how they sliced it up into manageable pieces. My disappointment came from my Margarita and the Chili Con Queso. I always get the Top Shelf Margarita and today's, seemed very weak and the mix was also flavorless. The Chili Con Queso was the true disappointment. The menu described it as Spicy Mexican Cheese Fondue, "blended with" jalapeños, onion and tomatoes. When it was served, there was no blending. It simply was the cheese fondue with a scoop of Pico De Gallo in the middle. The complementary chips were warm and crisp. The salsa was chunky, but needed a little more spices in it give some pizzazz. I haven't given up on Chava's, I'll be back. I enjoy their main dishes too much, to mark them off my Mexican list.

The pricing was weird on the menu and I thought they might do this to cover credit card costs. I believe they still added fee for me using my card. Salsa was great. Everything else was okay.

I would suggest trying it out if you are in the area but the service lacked.
