Cafe Rio Pizza

Went and had a root beer, and 3 different pizzzas, all amazing. Bread sticks were amazing too. Worth the wait! Will be back for sure! Great food and people!

Nice place and service was decent. The pizza we had was the Rio classic, which was similar to supreme. It was ok. Didn’t have much flavor to it. Also had spicy breadsticks and those were good. They have craft soda which is pretty good.

Cozy little restaurant in the middle of town. We got there at 3pm and waited about 10mns for a table- they seem to stay very busy. Started out with their Portuguese kale soup filled with sausage, kidney beans, kale and cabbage. It was nice and hearty with just the right amount of heat. My wife and I shared their Tuscan pizza - dough and toppings were delightful. One of the best pizza I've ever had. The only thing that could have made it better would have been a cold beer, but they unfortunately don't serve alcohol. Great pizza, great service - a must try.

Grungy pizza place in the heart of Ruidoso. The Portuguese kale soup was phenomenal – it even had a little kick. The pizza was also delicious & the perfect size for 1-2 people. We customized ours. We also had local sodas that were pretty tasty.

If you’re ordering or dining in, call HOURS ahead – or go in person to jot your name down. Actually, just go in person. They get really busy (but I can see why)!

Our server was wonderful, helpful and attentive. The pizza was amazing! Great flavor of garlic and Italian seasoning, the right amount of cheese and mushrooms. The dough was thin and perfectly cooked. The atmosphere was relaxing, tight quarters, but felt like being at home with family. There was a little bit of a wait, but definitely worth it.
