Tacos a la Diabla are fantastic. Cool vibe inside. This is one of my favorite spots for Mexican fare anywhere. Super fast service for takeout and really friendly staff if you're dining in. The pricing is very reasonable and the food is delicious.

My wife and I decided to try Rico's tonight. We been wanting to but after going out with friends and them recommending going. We definitely had to. I ordered the Canpechanos and my wife ordered the ACP. Everything was amazing. The atmosphere of Rico's is so cool and chill. The presentation of the food was perfect and very fast service. Israel was one of the best servers I've had in a long time. I definitely recommend to try Rico's if you're looking for great Mexican food. Also the drinks are very good.

Best Mexican restaurant in Avon Lake, Ohio. I wish the had some live music or background music. Anyway, the food was fresh and plentiful. Great portion size for the price. The staff was fantastic and owner is hands on. The chips and salsa are free, that’s a bonus! The steak fajitas were sizzling, we love the sound lol. The cerreo’s dessert was delicious. Food was fresh and fast, the margarita was huge! This is our go to Mexican restaurant!

Absolutely Delicious! I moved to Ohio from a border town in South Texas. Where real mexican food is the norm & everything else is trying to be. BUT This place. This golden gem called Rico's Tacos & Tequila completely knocked it out of the park. Walked in, place was clean, smelled clean & is beautiful. The art and decor is true. There's a nice live performance stage with a fireplace. We were promptly seated by our friendly server. Service was fast, food was hot and flavorful. Appetizer was the mexi calamari. Yum! Temp was hot and flavorful. I ordered the Torta.. my number one tester in any "mexican" restaurant. I immediately smiled. Yum! (Steak Torta) My husband ordered the lunch burrito, I didn't hear which one sorry. But It was delicious. I had a piece. Chips and salsa were incredibly fresh. Guys, I was impressed. Prices are great considering other places like Don Tequila, since they raised their prices, we haven't gone back there but Rico's, oh man, great prices and great food. Highly recommend!! We dined in to support the business & employees. Give tips and meet staff. New regulars.

This restaurant is absolutely delicious. My food was absolutely hot steaming and flavorful. This place is tucked away in a small parking lot but it will not disappoint you. The servers were beautiful and the service was excellent. I drove an hour just to come to this restaurant because my sister told me that it was a great place to eat. When I am in the mood to eat Mexican food I will always make the trip.

Rico's allowed us to host a small retirement party for my father at their restaurant. We had about 13 people. The service and accomodations were incredible. They provided us with several tables, a simple set menu, and even implements to serve a cake. They were great with splitting checks for individual add-ons. We appreciate it! We had a great time! And the margaritas and chips and salsa were great!
