Bar Rio: Reviews & Ratings
Wow this place is amazing! The food and cocktails were delightful. We got the jibaritos, ceviche, shrimp paella, and cheesecake. Everything was top notch! Plus, the patio is a great vibe on a summer day.
My boyfriend and I stopped in here for a quick bite while exploring downtown Bend. The service was great— the staff was on-point and attentive to our needs. It was Happy Hour, so I had the tamarind whiskey sour and my boyfriend had a margarita. Both were delicious! I especially enjoyed the whiskey sour. It was so fresh and lemony. For food, we tried their current special: the middle earth flat bread. It was very tasty! I loved the goat cheese. I would definitely eat it again!
The outside seats are very nice and relaxed. The service is ok, it didn't take a lot of time to bring food. All dishes had some interesting twist or sauce with it. The Coctail that we ordered was refreshing with good tasts combination.
Had a great time at Bar Rio with live music and late night happy hour! Great margs and tapas! The tamale with egg is so good, going to have to try that at home!
Bar Rio is my new favorite spot in town! All the things that were loved from the old Barrio, but with a new elevated twist. The tapas menu is perfect for a few bites on a date night or even to share a bunch with a group. The staff is super welcoming and knowledgeable about the menu and makes you feel at home. You can tell there’s a lot of love and care being put into every cocktail and dish that’s being served. There’s a nice outdoor lounge out back that’s perfect on a sunny day or even to cool down in the evening. The interior is beautifully curated and compliments the whole vibe of the place. I’m excited to have a new cocktail bar in Bend!
My husband and I came here for lunch, and we had to stay for dinner because we wanted to try the dinner menu as well. Everything from the cocktails and food, to the music, service, and atmosphere, was absolutely amazing. We tried the gorgonzola pasta from the lunch menu and their cuban sliders from the dinner menu, and both were phenomenal. The flavors are wild and we have a plan to come back and work our way through the menu to try all the different cocktails and dishes. Can't wait for our next date night!
Their cocktails are so good! My new favorite cocktail place in town. Their paella is even better than the one that I had in Spain
Went for happy hour just after 3. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable. I had a jalapeno margarita and husband had a tamarind sour. Both were happy hour drinks and delicious. For snacks, we had the chips salsa and guacamole as well as the fried cauliflower. All excellent and fresh. This will be on our regular rotation for sure.
