Very casual Taqueria. Plenty of booths, comfortable seating, although it is a small place. Fast and friendly service. Their menu is not extensive, mostly burritos, tacos, taquitos, quesadillas. No seafood. I think their best item is probably their super chicken tacos. I haven't had them, but my friend did and it looked really good. I've had their cheese quesadilla and super veggie taco. The taco was a flour tortilla. I do not recommend getting the flour, stick with corn. The servings aren't humongous, just keep that in mind, however, prices are very reasonable, even though my friend had remarked that they had gone up. Not a lot of of cheese in the quesadilla, but it was solid. Great taqueria. The lines are long and they even start forming around 10 AM. The lines move quickly though. read more

I went to get a quick lunch and I ordered takeout from Rico's Tacos. I got the super nachos, which were so good! It might not look like a lot at first, but it was super filling. They loaded it up with a lot of meat and plenty of toppings, which made it worth it. I think the price was about ~$15. I can't say much about the ambiance or service since I didn't dine in, but ordering was nice and easy, and everything was smooth. Definitely a solid option if you're looking for something filling and flavorful. read more

Ricos Tacos - Super Nachos - Mexican Near Me - Campbell, California

This is my favorite spot to get a burrito. My go to order when I need a quick bite is a super burrito de Carne Asada with sour cream. Extra toasted. With a sangria (non alcoholic beverage) The salsa is good. I really like the quality and seasoning of the meat! I live in the East side of San Jose so I'm used to good taquerias. I work in Campbell and this place is so close to me and it honestly never disappoints even when I door dash it. The staff is also very welcoming lol i think i got called Mija once. Which is a Mexican term of endearment! Looks like it's a family run business which is nice. Come support and eat local! They have plenty of space. read more

I eat a lot of Mexican food. Rico's are the best tacos I have had anywhere. The preparation is different as they heat up the tortilla on the grill with melted cheese added. The fresh ingredients also are a plus. Considering what you get, prices are very reasonable. Service is always great!!! read more

Tacos are always on point with the flautas! Family owned and always friendly and welcoming! Generally busy around lunch time.

My son and I were out and about and we wanted to get something to eat. He was craving cheese quesadilla so we went to Rico's Tacos nearby, where I hadn't been to for a few years. He got his cheese quesadilla and I got a carnitas taco which comes with beans and salsa. It hit the spot! And their red and green sauces were so good! Not that spicy. Service was fast and the staff was friendly. It's not a fancy place but food was pretty good. I usually take pictures of the food but I was hungry. read more

Seven to Eight years ago, I used to come to here to grab either lunch or dinner after work. I was around the area this time so I decided to eat lunch here again. I'm really glad that despite of many years has it been, it still tastes the same as how I remember it. I usually get a regular asada burrito (no beans) and use lots of their green sauce. It's my first time trying the BBQ PORK taco and it also taste good but I still prefer Asada. Definitely will eat here again when I'm around the area read more

Good food, horrible customer service. The cashier lady is hella rude. 11 tacos and 6 salsas. When i asked for more and offered to pay for 1 per she copped an attitude. Whoever the owner is needs to train his cashier lady better. read more

I got back from a trip to Seattle and I didn't feel like cooking. I ordered two steak tacos and one chicken taco via DoorDash. The food is nothing to write home about, and though I ordered crispy tacos, they weren't crispy by the time I got them. It could've just been because the meat was very wet. I almost broke my tooth biting into my chicken taco onto a fairly large chicken bone. I'm never going to order from here again. read more

Ricos Tacos - Chicken Taco - Mexican Near Me - Campbell, California

East Side flavor without the drive! Finally--an authentic taqueria in Campbell that hits just like the ones I grew up with on the East Side. This spot seriously reminds me of Super Taqueria (my old go-to), but dare I say... it's even better? The place is immaculate--super clean, well-kept, and welcoming. Service has been fast and friendly every time I've stopped by. So far, I've tried the Super Burrito and the Super Tacos, both with carne asada (because what else, right?). The meat is high quality, tender, and full of flavor. You can tell they care about doing things right here. No more 20-minute drives for a good taco--now I just walk over. If you're in the area and love East Side-style taquerias, don't sleep on this place. It's the real deal. read more

My boyfriend and I were seeing a movie next door and had a bit of time to kill before it started. We were starving and decided to grab some Mexican food. This is located in a plaza so shares a parking lot with the movie theater and a safeway. Plenty of parking. Most of the tables were full inside. We examined the menu for a bit before deciding on the carne asada nachos. We wound up sitting outside because it was pretty nice and warm. One of the workers directed us to the salsas in the fridge. Our order came out pretty quickly! Wow, this is a beautiful plate is nachos. The carne asada was nice and flavorful, guac was good, salsa was good. We forgot to ask them to omit the sour cream but my boyfriend wound up eating it. The chips were nice and crisp. Can't go wrong with nachos! We'll have to come back and try their other menu items. Service was great, food was good. No complaints! read more

The food at this place is so great!! Buche (pork cheeks) Super Tacos! The BEST authentic Mexican tacos! Yes, the lady up front can be intimidating. I have learned to approach her with confidence. I stand up straight, approach, and order what I want. I don't ask for extras (except saying no onions) I'm business-like and to the point, not rude, but not real friendly either, because that's how she operates. It's like Meg Ryan says in French Kiss: The key to French waiters: If you're nice to them, they treat you like shit. Treat them like shit, and they love you. Now, I'm not gonna go so far as to say that the lady at the register at Rico's loves me, but she's not particularly rude to me either when I talk to her the way that she talks to me. read more

Very very underwhelming torta .More mayo than anything else. Can't recommend for what they're charging. Horchata was fine . read more

Ricos Tacos - Torta sort of ... A slice of asada mayo and a little avocado. - Mexican Near Me - Campbell, California

I've discovered Rico's Tacos back in 2013 and I have been hooked ever since. You HAVE to try their Super Tacos - each taco comes with two layers of tortilla with crispy cheese in between and the texture is just so freaking delicious. Workers are so friendly and always remember me when I come in ;) Hands down my favorite taco place in Southbay. Every single person I've taken here loves their tacos. 10/10 read more

A few friends and I decided to catch a movie, "Wicked," on a Thursday evening. However, we were hungry, so we stopped by Ricos Tacos for a quick meal. Ricos Tacos is a mom-and-pop Mexican restaurant that I would consider a fast food place. ORDER You walk up, check the menu, and place your order. FOOD The food is prepared right away, and the kitchen is visible for patrons to see. My friends and I all ordered tacos. The protein options for the tacos were good, but I personally didn't enjoy the beans and cheese that were added. I was hoping for street tacos filled with onions and cilantro instead. I'm sure they have that option, but I didn't see it on the menu and would need to request it. Overall, it was a quick and affordable meal, but nothing special. read more

I really love the food here BUT anytime I order my food the cashiers are rude and look annoyed. I hate to say that the customer service is not the best but that's just what it is. Cooks are great and fast. Switch the cashiers... read more

Never been here before. Small place for a quick bite, or better yet take it to go. Ordered two super carnitas burritos approx $11, which is really good deal. Sadly, it was mainly into beans, maybe 1 oz of meat. The tiny sliver of avocado made it "super". It was pretty bland and they did not have sauce to make it wet. Came with green and red salsa, no chips. Both salsas were pretty spicy. It wasn't my idea of fun, the food was edible. On the plus side, service was very fast. Wish I would have checked reviews first. read more

Best tacos around, and the staff are super friendly. I always crave their super tacos. The pollo is shredded and so flavorful. The cheese is melty goodness and the white corn tortillas are slightly crisped, creating an amazing texture. read more

The lady at the cash register was extremely rude and unprofessional. She was already arguing with the customer in front of me, who had clearly asked for double meat on her tacos, but the cashier refused to fix her order even though it was clearly her mistake. When it was my turn, I accidentally misspoke and said I wanted four super tacos, but I immediately corrected myself and said three. She even repeated it back to me, "Okay, three super tacos." However, when I sat down and checked my receipt, I noticed she had charged me for three super burritos instead. When I brought the mistake to her attention, she growled at me, started cursing in Spanish, and shoved a $20 bill into my hand. As I waited for my corrected order, I could clearly hear her talking trash about me and the previous customer -- also in Spanish. She probably assumed I didn't understand, but I do speak Spanish. When my order finally came out, she rolled her eyes and said in a rude tone, "Here's your three tacos." On top of all that, the tacos never have enough meat in them to begin with -- which is exactly why the first customer had asked for double meat. Overall, the experience was unprofessional, disrespectful, and unacceptable. read more

Mediocre Mexican food - nothing to write home about. Unfortunately there are many other taquerias in the area with better food. I would suggest you go there. read more

Awesome little spot if you're in the area. Everything I've tried has been on point--my go-to is the asada or chile verde tacos. Always fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The green salsa is a standout--great balance of heat and flavor. I've seen reviews about the woman at the counter being rude, but that hasn't been my experience at all. She's not overly chatty, but she's efficient--takes the order, gets it done, and keeps things moving. Works for me. There are a lot of spots around to get quick Mexican food and most are mid, this one stands out and is definitely in my regular rotation now. read more

I've had tacos from here before when my daughter would get them on the way home from her then nearby work. Great stuff. This time. Some friends and my wife and I came here after a movie at the Cinelux. I chose to get the torta for my first in-person visit and thought it was a great choice. Wonderful pork filling and buttery bread around it. Loved it! The rest of our party chose assorted tacos which were all gobbled. Service, cleanliness, are all great. It is a simple restaurant so the nicely lit seating is pretty much fast food style. Costs a little more than other taquerias but is good enough to make it not an issue for me. read more

Can't believe there's some bad reviews on here!!!! This is our favorite go to taco place! Need a "fix" about once a week! Fresh, flavorful and full of great stufff! Lots of lovely avocado!

Me and my husband were in the neighborhood and were hungry for some Mexican food so we decided to give this place a try. I ordered the super steak nachos. My husband ordered the super steak burrito. There were many problems with my nachos: -the chips were way too greasy and salty -there was an enormous amount of guacamole on top of my nachos, which ruined the nachos -the guacamole was way too salty -- way more saltier than the chips itself -there was a ton of whole beans in my nachos, which made me feel like I was just eating beans with a side of chips -didn't have enough steak -there was hardly any cheese In regards to my husband's super steak burrito, there were some issues that he had with it: -there was way too many whole beans -it tasted bland -it was simple -- nothing special compared to other Mexican restaurants I ate at -there was no rice in it -had very little steak -there was hardly any cheese In regards to the restaurant itself, there isn't even a chips and salsa bar. We weren't even offered any salsa at all. What kind of establishment is that??? I do NOT recommend this place at all. So do not go here, you will regret it!!!!!!!!!!!! You're better off going to La Victoria Taqueria in downtown San Jose.....the food and ambiance is much better. read more

These place is amazing...... I work down the street their food is great their service is amazing from the lady working the front to the back. Thank you Ricos for providing me quality food read more

I've been here a few times but to be honest, it's been years. I was craving Mexican after running some errands so I popped into Rico's to grab something to take home. This place is a super simple no frills kind of place. It's family run which I love and the menu is small so you won't feel overwhelmed. I got the chicken flauta plate and it was yum. These are made to order, covered in lettuce, sour cream and quac, and since it's a "plate", it came with rice and refried beans. It took a little bit to make since it was made to order but I wasn't complaining. The restaurant is clean and the two other customers eating seemed to be regulars. The staff were friendly and joked with each other. Clearly they all enjoyed being there. Once my order was ready, I grabbed it and drove straight home. By this time I was starving and dug right in. Unfortunately that means I didn't get a picture but believe me, it's was tasty and a great portion for the price. Will I come back? Absolutely! read more

I've been visiting Rico's Tacos for about 15 years now, and I never miss a chance to stop by when I'm in the area. Their carne asada super tacos are a must try. read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE. Amazing, high-quality food, very fast service, and low prices. It's the best Mexican restaurant I've ever been to.

Was on the go and needed a quick lunch that I could take to eat later and would fill me up. Due to convenience and knowing a burrito would keep me full, Ricos it was. Went in around 11am on a Saturday and was the only one there. Hadn't been here before so quickly scanned the menu and decided on a carnitas burrito. Looked so fast I didn't even read all the meats, but it seemed like they had a good amount of choices. Burrito was made on the spot and was ready within 1 minute. Probably only spent 2 minutes in the shop which was perfect for the occasion. Burrito was good, nothing special though and I felt like it was kind of expensive for what I got, but it did the job and tasted just fine. No black beans on the menu, just pinto beans for burritos. The sauces that came with the burrito were good, both way too spicy for me and my mouth was on fire, but I still added a bit of the green because I liked the flavor when it didn't burn. Would probably come back here again if I were in a hurry and needed a filling meal. read more

They are lacking in more than one way. For starters the customer service sucks here not welcoming at all. I ordered a burrito I had to tear off the tortilla where there was no meat no nothing. To be quite honest I feel like this is a copy cat of super taqueria which is waaay better not to mention the prices are a tad bit high for quality of food. For being a hole in the wall I suggest you should treat customers better. The tables are filthy btw should take better pride in your restaurant because this ain't it. read more

Woman working register hates her life! Been coming here for years and years. I go at least once or twice a week if not more for lunch. I always tip $3 to $6 even if I'm getting to-go. Mind you, even when you eat there you order at the counter, get your own food and buss your own table. Never been hassled about salsa before. Today I ordered lunch for me and my wife. They gave me 1 small cup of red salsa and 1 green. I asked for 1 extra red and the cashier threw a fit. In the past they always have given me a few extra salsa no issue. She rolled her eyes and very rudely told me that they charge extra for salsa, I said okay. She then starts lecturing me on how "THIS TIME" she'll give it for free but next time she won't and it will be 60cents per salsa. I insist on paying for the salsa as I don't want to cause an issue. She again says snarky that she'll make an exception "THIS TIME ONLY" but that next time it's not going to be free. I walked out then decided to go back in and tell her I didn't appreciate the way she spoke to me, especially considering I come so often and ALWAYS tip, even if I get to-go. She told me "it's the same if you go to McDonalds and ask for sauce, this is a business". Business 101 is REPEAT customers. I've recommended this place FOR YEARS to so many family and friends because I really like the food here. Never again. They lost my business because of the RUDE customer service from the owners daughter working the register that doesn't want to be there. read more

Just came in today and ordered tostados and I didn't know it had beans since I'm allergic and the lady said I'd have to pay for the one I ordered already which I DIDNT have a problem doing. But it's the way she approached the situation with a nasty attitude and it's terrible service I told her why do you always mean mug me when I come in and she over reacted and made a whole scene. I work around the area and come here almost 2x a week and every time I see her she's super mean with an attitude and the other lady and her said I'm not allowed to come back which I will happily accept. All of this over me asking for a tostados with no beans. It's actually ridiculous. read more
