Rio Grande Mexican Restaurant is a delightful Tex-Mex spot in Denver that never disappoints! 🌟 The atmosphere is casual yet trendy, perfect for families and gatherings.

I highly recommend their sizzling spinach enchiladas, which arrive bubbling hot and bursting with flavor. And don’t skip the famous salsa; it's easily the best I've had! 🥒🍅

The margaritas are outstanding, especially the mini size for a lighter taste. Service is quick and friendly - always a plus! Overall, it’s a solid choice for a fun meal with great drinks. I’ll definitely be back! 🍹✨
