Urban Rio Cantina & Grill

UrbanRio is an exciting, new Mexican Cantina and Grill located in the original Old Downtown Plano Ice House! After bringing to the area an original wood-fired pizza concept with Urban Crust in 2009, the Shea’s purchased the Old Downtown Plano Ice House at 1000 E. 14th Street (one block South of Urban Crust) and began envisioning a “sister” concept for the area. UrbanRio – “the River of the City” is just East of the DART Rail tracks in  Downtown Plano – (thus, the “Steel River” of Plano!) The exciting flavors of UrbanRio will come from all-sides of the Rio Grande River! Urban Rio will  use only the freshest and most authentic ingredients from the Rio Grande Valley area. The first floor dining room features designs from Cal Young (CYA Designs  Collective) and brings in the colors and the textures of the river valley. The  water feature (the Rio) is visible for all to enjoy as well as the hand-made and  hand-ground masa tortilla station and guacamole being created in the  authentic "over-sized" molcajete.
