Fast, convient service. Even at dinner hour on a major holiday. Food is great, prices are reasonable.
This place is AMAZING!!! The food was so good and fresh. The service was great, the waitresses were very kind and always made sure our drinks,chips,and salsa were filled. I will definitely be coming back soon.
We come here when we're craving Mexican food that's not just your norm, tacos and burritos. I love Ricardos because they have this amazing Calamari De Ajo that's just prepared so good! Unfortunately they were out last night which was a let down, HOWEVER, I was able to try their Mole Enchiladas with just cheese (I don't eat meat) and they were so yummy! Glad I had the opportunity to try something new for me and I was not disappointed. Their Mole was very tasty with just the right amount of sweetness and spiciness. Hubby had the Chicken Flautas and finished every single one them. I had their Horchata, first one was watered down but they made a fresh one which was perfect. The service was top notch, waiter kept checking with us and everything was great. The ambiance there is perfect for a date or group get together, not too quiet and not too loud. I'm so glad it's so close to where I live!
Honestly, we kinda stumbled across this place as we were in the area and craving Mexican food. We couldn't have gotten more lucky as this place was so delicious. The workers were so friendly and served us pretty quickly. We shared a Mango Margarita which was a good call as the size was huge. I ordered some Enchiladas with a side of Rice and Beans and it hit the spot. The interior was also beautifully painted with a mural and colorful walls and decals. Cool place!
A very good spot for some delicious Mexican food. There chips and salsa put them as my go to Mexican food restaurant. Locals know what I'm talking about! Service is always great and the place has a nice Mexican traditional restaurant vibe with a lady fresh making tortillas as soon as you walk in.
We decided to check out Ricardo's for Sunday dinner. After a short wait, we were shown to our table. A very nice gentleman brought our chips and salsa and took our drink order. The chips are unlike any other restaurant chips I've ever tasted; they have air pockets and the texture is different. I love them!! I ordered a pomegranate margarita and it was yummy, not too sweet and cool for this warm SoCal day. Our dinner combo came with a choice of salad or soup. Hubby and I chose the albondigas soup, it was delish. Service was awesome and waters and sodas were refilled regularly. We're going to try happy hour next time we come here. Highly recommend Ricardo's, family atmosphere and great food.
