Tender Crush

Located inside of the Rio hotel, the food court area. You can order via the kiosk. It's quite awkward when people are waiting behind you when you need to put your name on the big old screen tho.The chicken burger I had was a bit spicy but I like it personally. The crunchiness of it was no joke. The kale dish here is really nice, a very healthy option instead of going with the usual fries. The vinaigrette seasoning was on point. My friends and I liked it a lot.The server was very friendly and sweet, kept telling me my order is coming up. I spent $20 in total for the kale and the burger. More like a fast food atmosphere here.

Food here is made fresh and really tasty. It took longer than expected to come out but it surely didnt disappoint. Chicken is crispy and the sauces I tried were very tasty. Also had the salad and waffle fries which werent bad. They completely messed up my order but I didn't notice until I was back in my room so I just ate it anyway. It also took 15-20 minutes to get my food. Id normally give 3 stars for something like this but it really is tasty so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt

Great value priced eatery when staying at the Rio. If you're staying at the Rio, you can charge it to your room. Located in the Canteen, there are a decent amount of tables. Ordering is done via posted QR code. So there's very little interaction with servers except for picking up your order. Text confirmation of your order and order number is convenient. You get a text when your order is ready. So instead of having to stand around to wait for your order, you can take a seat or go play a couple of rounds of slots or tables. It's a bit of a wait. My assumption is that everything is made to order.There is only one gluten free option, the 3 grilled tenders for $10. They were decent sized, moist, and tender but not as lemon and other spices flavored as expected. But I would eat here and order the grilled tenders again.

This little spot is located at the food court at the Rio. We only ended up getting a soft serve ice cream here and it tasted pretty good. Service was a bit slow especially at night and we had to order through the Kiosk. (There was no one taking orders.) When we got our soft serve they forget to add the sauce that we paid for so we had to let them know. Overall food was good, service needs a bit of work.

Solid Nashville hot chicken sando. Located inside of the Rio Hotel & Casino food hall, they offer tenders, sandwiches & tasty waffle fries! Service was fast & friendly, and plenty of seating nearby. The chicken was hot, fresh, moist & delicious! I recommend Tender Crush for a quick break in your gaming!

Visited the newly renovated Rio Hotel & Casino Canteen Food Hall and came across Tender Crush. Great food menu options with different items and different spice levels. Great customer service by Tytyianna. She went over the menu and their spice levels as well as what most food items Tender Crush is known for.We ordered Crispy Chicken Sandwich Old School NY Crush with lettuce, tomato, kosher pickles, mayo and vinegar. The House Hits Jackson Heights Heat with bird pepper, chives, kosher pickles and zesty white barbecue sauce along with some Williamsburg Waffle Fries (seasoned) and yummy dessert called Boardwalk Donuts with blueberry, lemon and warm custard. So good! The dessert was not too sweet as the blueberry balanced out the zesty lemon taste with the warm custard. The chicken sandwiches were also good. Crispy and fresh chicken breast. The flavoring was just right. Jackson Heights Heat's level of spice was perfect as the kosher pickles balanced out the spice. Williamsburg Waffle Fries were seasoned and crisp to perfection. Tender Crush is definitely a spot we will visit again when in Las Vegas as we would like to try other food items on their menu.

Fun, unique, casual spot with various delicious options for its namesake product - chicken tenders! I thought the price was very reasonable for the amount and quality of tenders you get, which are very filling as a meal by themselves and many of them starting under $10. There were various sauce and heat options, although I just stuck with the grilled tenders that came with some zesty lemon type seasoning and spices.I didn't get too much more because I was visiting the new Canteen Food Hall in the Rio Hotel, where it's located, as part of a video where I was trying something from several of the spots there.I ended up being pleasantly surprised by just how much I loved Tender Crush and several of the other spots!The tenders were perfectly cooked and tasted very tender. Additionally, the grilled ones that I got were perfectly accompanied by the zestiness of the lemon and a tad bit of heat from the spices. If you're a chicken tender lover or you're looking for a quick bite at a reasonable price, this is definitely a great spot to stop by and try out!

Got the grilled chicken and kale thingy. It was not bad. Chicken was juicy and had a good quantity, and the kale was very flavorful. So full after finishing! Took a while to come out, but understandable.

Brand new food court area located on the west end of the Rio. Plenty of food options but Korean fried chicken was calling our names. The staff was friendly and answered all our questions and suggested heat options for the sauce on our chicken. Nice seating area with plenty of options and the beverage machine has literally over a hundred of options.We ordered the House hits, with 32nd st bbq sauce. Korean BBQ chicken, toasted sesame, scallion, cilantro, fresh lime atop and buttermilk dill. Look at this chicken! Delicious to the last bite! 5/5 the flavor, the juiciness and portion size was all on point.Cannot wait to come back with family and have more Tender Crush!

What a fun spot to stop and grab some tenders! Yum! This place is conveniently located in the Rio.
