'We can't wait to open in Sunderland' say Rio owners as work forges ahead

Famed for its unlimited meat offering, Rio steakhouse is one of the North East's most successful hospitality brands, where it's regularly top-rated at its branches in Newcastle and Cheshire.

Sunderland will be the eighth Rio opening and is a £500,000 investment in the city, spanning 10,000sq ft.

As work forges ahead on the site, the team is working towards a September opening with a lunchtime offering starting at £20 and an evening offering starting from £30.

It's been a long time coming since it was first announced Rio was heading to the city in 2022, and owners Howard Eggleston and Rodrigo Grassi Duarte say they are as keen as everyone to see it finally open its doors.
