“ I love their grilled chicken, so flavourful and saucy! I enjoy it more than Nando’s chicken. They grill to perfection - no anaemic chicken. The rice is so delicious and I’m not even a rice person! Garlic sauce is creamy and thin which goes well with the chips and rice! ”

“ Today I visited Rios and I was thoroughly impressed by the exceptional service and friendly staff. From the moment we walked in, she made us feel incredibly saying hi. The staff were attentive but not overbearing, which created a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience. The food was absolutely delicious, prepared with care and served beautifully. It’s clear that the staff genuinely cares about the customers, and their professionalism shines through in every aspect of the restaurant, from the ambiance to the quality of service. I visit the website for leaving a good review but shock to see the negative reviews, not gonna lie but especially about the staff, those who may feel inclined to leave negative reviews based on unreasonable expectations, even Rios is best in Croydon Instead of focusing on small flaws, we should appreciate their efforts and respect they give us ”
