Wow me and my hubby went for dinner there this evening. I can’t believe we haven’t been here before. The beef quesadilla was too die for. Hands down best guacamole we ever had! Can’t wait to return and try some other items on the menu. The staff and owner were so polite and friendly. Thank you for the lovely evening �
Could not be better. The food is just like you’d get in Mexico. The owners are very friendly. My wife and I are in High river for three days and have eaten 3 times at Rio Alto. Highly recommend.
I ate here the best Mexican food in My life.
Everythink is so fresh and natural. Very healthy food and of course tasty food. When I think about this my mouth is watering - so good. Very delcious bread .
The Owner has absolute passion for cooking . This is why this food has such a special taste.
Came across this place on our way through town. Initial service was slower due to other customers but once we were greeted the fellow was quick to bring chips and house made salsa and share the specials and recommend items. Ordered tacos and the 5 layer dip and food came within minutes and the whole meal for 2 was under 20 bucks. If you want authentic Mexican food from people who have a passion for their food take your business here.

Great place to eat, all the staff and the owner are super friendly and the food is amazing, I highly recommend eating here!
A hidden gem in downtown High River. My parents and I really enjoyed our lunch here, food was delicious, and reasonably priced. Hector was very friendly and there was no pressure to ‘eat and leave’. We will definitely be back.
I shared the mixed plater with a friend for lunch today and it was the best authentic Mexican food I have ever eaten. The portions were so generous i enjoyed the leftovers for dinner as well. The decor was lovely, service good, and the owner Hector was very friendly and took the time to come and chat with us. Highly recommended.
Had lunch at Rio Alto today for the first time. I live in Okotoks, and it is well worth the drive. Fantastic flavourful food, nice atmosphere, and personal service. The menu has plenty of options and is great value. Will definitely make this a regular part of my restaurant rotation!
Absolutely wonderful meal. I had the Soft Tacos, you can order as many as you like at $3.00 each. I had one Beef (Shredded beef, cilantro, onions, lime), 2 Chicken (Chicken tinga, cilantro, onion, roasted pineapple) and 1 Veggie (Mushrooms, roasted poblano pepper, roasted corn, crema).
It came with the lovely side salad (Fresh romaine lettuce, avocados, radishes, apples and red onions tossed in a lemon jalepeño cream dressing), pico de gallo and guacamole. Delicious!
Staff were very friendly, prices were great and the decor and ambience of the restaurant were perfect.
The authenticity of this place is unbeatable!! All food was made fresh and the presentation put into each plate was incredible!! I will be back!!
This is a great place to eat, we loved our evening , the food and staff are great ,Hector and Veronica you have a very nice restaurant every thing we had was excellent

My husband and I just had supper here for the first time for our 11th Wedding Anniversary. The owner came over and explained everything on the menu and made recommendations. Everything we had was amazing, so many flavours and so fresh. We will be back for sure.

Yum! Great lunch there today! Enjoyed a few veggie tacos and a side salad with the best dressing! Lots of flavour, will definitely be back!
I loved sitting by the fireplace on a chilly day .....the food was traditional and tasty....service was friendly .....and the wine wonderful! I will be back!
Most EXCELLENT, service was great, food was fantastic, highly recommend the platter... good for 1 if you are hungry, good for 2 if you eat normally. Both soups are tasty and hardy. Best part, they have chilli rellenos, a rarity for mexican restaurants in canada....and it was killer good!
Pretty sure this is my first 5 rating. Fresh. Subtle yet flavourful. Excellent service. Licensed. Will be back soon.
Forced to write more in this useless app before it will post.
Just wonderful cuisine, really reminds me of Puerto Vallarta right in High River!
I have eaten take out from there for last two weeks and can not get enough.
I don't know why this has such a low rating! It's really tasty, fresh, authentic Mexican food. The restaurant is clean and cozy, we shared the 5 layer dip and a platter, everything was excellent. Definitely recommend if you're looking for something other than pizza and pub food in High River.
My burrito was excellent. The cinnamon sticks for dessert with nice cream where very tasty and not to sweet. There was enough for the two of us. Green sauce for dipping chips in was top notch. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere. I highly recommend.
Always busy over lunch; good sign for great food. Owners are personable and staff is friendly. I'm especially excited they are adding mole to their menu soon!
Great great food. Had home made chorizo soft tacos. Yum! I will be back many many times! Very good food. Such good food in high river - Better than most Mexican places in Calgary. Highly recommended.
