Well I came and invited my friends out had a birthday brunch for our friend. We had one waitress and she was not so good and we got a 20% gratuity added to our bill. I don’t mind tipping when the service is good. The plates were dirty. We had to move our dirty plates and clean our table to remove everything. It just wasn’t a good experience

Been coming to this location for as long as it has been open. Something has changed, it's not the same. We've consistently received poor service and incorrect food, but this last visit was the absolute worst. Reservations at 11:30am for a high top, we were sat, chip and salsa were dropped. We waited 40 minutes before approaching the only server working the bar. From the time we sat down to the time drinks arrived was 55 minutes, food arrived at the same time. We never saw a manager and no one other than the server said anything to us. Complete disappointment, woefully understaffed for a Sunday brunch.

Rio Mambo is always great. We eat there about every other week, so I would consider myself a regular.

We came, especially for the vegetable spinach enchiladas. They are amazing. The only thing I ever order! They were definitely delicious as usual Only one thing this time we came and they changed their margarita recipe. That's not as good. My sister and I for years thought it was the best margarita not anymore. The margarita is what my sister goes for regularly. She said she won't be coming back. She'll be going to Esperanza instead. Said the mix tasted really tart just not right. Unfortunately, they changed their margarita. Hopefully, they see the mistake and go back to the regular margarita are known for. Please don't change the vegetable enchiladas.

Hi Susan, I saw that you didn't care for the margarita. We haven't changed our recipe. I sure hope you will give us another try.
