This place can be hit or miss. The food is good. Love the carne asada. You can only have one order of chips and salsa before they charge you. If you order a fountain drink, they may never get around to offering a refill read more

Wow great service and great food I will be back for sure!! First off the salsa and chips always set me up if I'm going to like the place or not. It didn't fail here either. So since the salsa was so good I gambled on the chicken and mole. I have only really ever liked my previous Nana in laws recipe. But this was pretty close, a little on ths sweeter side but not to far. Was not the shredded cooked all day chicken but it was still good just seemed like cut up grilled chicken with the mole poured over. But again it was good. It was taco Tuesday so grabbed a steak and carnitas they were good. Margarita was good as well. Will be back next time I'm in town. read more

Salsa was amazing. Took too long to get the table as manager / owner ? Was goofing at the bar. Finally walked towards him and he came to seat me. Waited a long time and placed a water order with someone and they brought ice tea and said ice tea ? Then we got the water and a beer corrected and my waitress came about 15 minutes later as I just got out of my seat to go to bar to order. Food was great. Service not at all. Actually witnessed multiple employees on their cells with customers waiting. Owner / manager sits on his phone watching stuff and not collecting cash just sets the example for his employees. Guess he is too cool read more

Great Mexican restaurant in Farmington. My favorite so far. It's always a good sign when you walk in and you are the only non-Hispanic person there and everyone is speaking Spanish. It is casual with Latin decor. Service was very friendly and helpful. The food was very tasty. I recommend the three item grande plate. You can pick which three items you want from a list. It was about $15 and more than filled me up. The first bowl of chips and excellent fresh salsa is free. After that, if you want more, it is $1.99. I am in Farmington every few months for work and this is my go to restaurant for when I want tasty Mexican food. read more

Go somewhere else that better appreciates your business. Who knew ordering food at a restaurant would be a massive inconvenience to the staff. Placed a solo order at 8pm and received a groan from staff. To top it off the food was mid and overpriced. At least the Pacifico was cold.. read more

I came to dinner around 6:30 on St Patrick's Day 2025. Restaurant is located right off the main road. Plenty of parking. I was seated in a booth next to the bathroom. I was greeted by a server, chips & salsa and water were brought. The chips are so fresh, light and crispy. I also enjoyed the salsa; fresh, little chunks of onions/tomatoes and not spicy. I ordered the 4 shredded beef crunchy taco plate. No beans or rice. The tacos are small. The shredded beef were on the salty size but the salsa balanced the salt. Customer service was fine. I may come back and try the chile verde. read more

Fantastic mole ... and I know mole! The beans cooked perfectly. The staff wonderful and the atmosphere authentic. This place deserves five stars. read more

I had a few Mexican restaurants in Farmington while I was there for business and this was by far the best one for me. From the welcoming and friendly staff, to the mouth watering enchiladas. Fresh salsa, and margarita specials. Both the green and red chile were fighting for my love but I was torn between the two. I came for the name but stayed for the enchis! I will be back and would recommend this place. read more

We didn't know what to expect when walking into mmm Que Rico but I will tell you this. If you are looking for good Mexican food this is the place to go. The place looks great on the interior, food service is fast. Everyone is super nice. The food is amazing, I wish I could have more! This place is definitely worth 5 stars read more

Great food and great service. Loved that the enchiladas were served hot and freshly made.

Farmington New Mexico Almost 8 o'clock Saturday night and this place is quite busy. The tables are mostly booths. We did get one table at the very back of the restaurant up against the wall by the restroom. The staff works fast and they all help each other. They immediately brought us a basket of chips and salsa. I ordered a beer and it was a Mexican beer that they lined the glass with chili pepper. It was very delicious. I ordered the chicken burrito and my husband ordered the Chipotle chicken enchiladas. Both are served with a side of rice and refried beans. I asked if they had black beans, but they said they only had refried. The rice is white rice with corn, carrots, and peas. The vegetables look like it came from a frozen mix. Had a little bit of red sauce in it. The beans were like gravy. I did not have one whole bean on my plate. Neither the rice nor the beans had any flavor whatsoever. In fact, the beans were not even tolerable to eat. They were like the texture of a bad bowel. My chicken burrito was a tortilla that was not quite warm and loaded with nothing but shredded chicken. I put the green sauce on the side but it had no cheese. Very bland, very boring for the price. I could have gone to Chipotle and got a better selection. Enchiladas were the same thing just with a different sauce and tortilla. Yelp gave this place great reviews. I don't know what I am missing. They were very busy, Service was fine, and the restaurant seem to run efficiently. But I like to have good food, and this is where they lacked. I would not come back to this restaurant. read more

We had dinner on a Tuesday night and the place was very busy. The service was polite and quick. The veggie burrito with green sauce was delicious. Price was great too! All good! The restaurant is very loud though. Very hard to have any conversation without yelling. Everyone in the place had a smile on their face and appeared to truly enjoying their evening read more

The service was quick and friendly and the atmosphere was decent. Unfortunately, most the food was not that great. It was pretty bland. The enchiladas and tacos were quite bland. At least the tamales were good, but cheese on tamales is not the best (no big deal to scrape it off). I wouldn't recommend this restaurant. read more

Food was great. Service not so much. Some of the most authentic barbacoa I've had. Nachos are good. Staff were not rude. They just were not much of anything. Glad we didn't need refills or desert because no one was going to ask and certainly didn't ask. I'm not mad. But definitely don't see a need to leave a tip when there's been no reason provided to warrant a tip. I guess I've come to expect the waiter or waitress to at the very least ask us how everything is while we have a mouth full of food. But we didn't even get that. read more

I'm visiting from Phx And Omg I loved this place! Everything from the atmosphere, the services/employees and decor is so authentic!

My favorite restaurant between Oregon and Oklahoma!! We picked the cutest Mexican restaurant ever (I picked it because of the silly name) for dinner in Farmington NM. Every booth, chair and wall was uniquely carved, sewn and/or hand painted. The service was perfect, and fast and the burritos and enchiladas were delicious!! Highly recommend. read more

Food is great, we look forward to eating there every time we are in town. Margaritas will warm you up on a cold day.

Best Mexican restaurant in the 4 Corners. Home made sauza is the best. This is more of a gourmet cuisine with lots of varieties. I eat here regularly and have never been disappointed. I grew up in the southwest and love good Mexican food, this place is at the top of my list, hands down!!!!! Que Rico es muy bueno. read more

Service and food was great. Coming back to Albuquerque from Durango and wanted to find a spot on the way home and this place lived up to the ratings. Had ceviche tostadas shrimp tacos Al pastor tacos and shredded beef burrito with fajita veggies. All was tasty read more

This place has gone downhill. 1. Their empanadas use to much larger. These are no more than 3". 2.) Normally they have a nice flakey crust. These were soggy. 3.). They give a verde (green) dipping sauce. It was sooooo salty, it could wilt a cactus. 4.). Ordered the meat empanada. I have no idea what kind of meat it was. It was like a goulash,. Ugh. Won't be back. read more

Amazing service and wonderful food! The salsa was on the thin side by the flavor was good.

Excellent food and excellent service! They all were so nice to our group of 4 as we came in later and thought they closed at nine but they actually closed at eight and we're so kind to wait for us to finish and leave. read more

We had an awesome dinner time here, we did a birthday dinner for a family member and came out great! The service was awesome and the food was great. Can't wait to go back for some more food.

It was OK. My tacos were lacking in luster by all means, not a place I will rush back to. Service was friendly but slow I got that pretty pretty early probably about 4 o'clock so they were more workers than there were people in there took forever to get my bill and pay. read more

I never leave one star, but I got the worst Mexican food takeout from the best rated Mexican Restaurant around. I ordered Chimichangas and received super soggy burritos instead (with the wrong meat but I'd have let that slide if they were actually fried) . A spoonful of refried beans that just tasted like water with no salt or spices. How is that possible? I regretted the 30% tip I left for food I could've made better in my hotel. read more

Me and my family waited 30mins and still didn't get to order our food. Our waiter just took off on us and was just serving other Yuhu Taibo people there. He didn't even our drinks correct, tried to our drinks that we wanted but the other waiters were as I said just serving the other yuhu taibo's that were there. At least I got a good nap in. Don't recommend unless you're a yuhu taibo. read more

Mmm... Que Excellente! Awesome food, and fast / friendly service -- loved it! My wife (who doesn't normally like Spanish rice) loved the rice, the salsa was right on the money, entrees were perfect. Pity we live in Denver, or we'd be regular customers for sure. read more

I got the Caldo de Mariscos which was packed full of seafood in a delightful, slightly sweet (but not saccharine) broth. There were shrimp, fish, imitation crab, octopus, bell peppers, onions, and other seafood I'm likely forgetting. The soup also comes with a choice of corn or flour tortillas, and saltine crackers. You can get it spicy in which they'll add jalapeños, but the default is not spicy. My parents got the mariscada and mojarra which they both enjoyed. The portions were huge and the value was exceptional. Normally this much seafood in a single dish costs well over $30 at other restaurants. As we were eating, the entire place filled up. Not surprised that this place is a local favorite! read more

Wish I would have taken food pics. Went on a busy Friday night. We had a party of 6. We expected a wait, we were seated within 10 minutes. (They predicted 10-15 before we unloaded kids from the van & came in) We had a delightful server make recommendations. Our chips and salsa were refilled without asking:) Just the right amount of heat for the table salsa. We had 3 additional workers asking how we were doing, refilling drinks and asking how everything was tasting! Enjoyed all our food. Quesadilla for the kids and combinations for the adults, the taco plates were the best! They let us choose 2 meats, we added the rice and beans. Yummy pork and carne asada with so much meat!! Very filling, someone shared their chile releno and it was also on point! Such a busy time, workers buzzing around busily, but orchestrating a smooth flow to reach all the diners. We didn't see anyone being lazy or rude. Definitely will come back! We went based on Yelp reviews and initially chose a different restaurant, but they were closing in 30 minutes and only taking to go orders. I felt like this was the best turn of events so we could experience this awesome restaurant! read more

So I ordered door dash bc I was not doing the whole let me go out looking like a crazy person who just woke up and is hungry AF.

I forgot to get a pic bc I inhaled it. I will be ordering again. read more

Raz has been singing the praises of Mmm Que Rico for ages, but we never seemed to manage to get me there until this most recent road-trip. Mmm Que Rico has a lovely, well-spaced dining room with high -backed bancos that provide a secluded, intimate dining experience, even in the bright, cheerful, sunny dining room. They also have patio seating in the parking lot for scaredy-cats like me who are still hesitant to eat indoors. The staff was masked and following all the state guidelines for safety, but we still decided on a to-go order since Farmington has some truly gorgeous city parks, and who would want to stay inside on a glorious, sunny afternoon? I ordered Camarones al Mojo de Ajo, because I love spicy garlic-butter shrimp, and Ras ordered the Mariscada. When we were presented with our meals, we were absolutely astounded at the portion sizes. Since we had traveled something around 300 miles, with frequent stops to do short hikes and take pictures and had completely missed both breakfast and lunch, we thought our appetites would be up to the challenge. We were somewhat right, as I did manage to polish off the entire plate of camarones which would easily have served 2 people (marveling at how the garlic seemed to infuse the very core of the shrimp while managing not to be at all greasy despite being fried in butter). I also managed to devour Raz's crab legs (since he swears that crab is too much work to eat when you have to extract it from the shell). Raz was full to bursting from the many varieties of sea creature packed on his plate. The light sauce was sumptuous and lightly spicy, and I will thoroughly split that plate with him next time we go through the area, since it would have fed us both if we hadn't been quite so famished. I only managed a few bites of the rice before an issue with a stiff river breeze rendered the rest of the rice out of my reach, but those few bites were quality, and I'd have been happy with just that side as a meal under normal circumstances. We packed the tortillas, chips, and salsa home, and I found them to be quite marvelous a couple days later when I needed a chips and salsa fix. Now that I've gone on far too long, I'll wrap up my praises of Mmm Que Rico's generous portions and quality fare. I look forward to my next visit to Farmington, if for no other reason than to visit Mmm Que Rico again! read more
