This is seriously THE BEST Mexican food in Coolidge, Arizona. I've been to the other location in…read moreFlorence, Arizona, and both locations are FIRE! The service is fast, the food is fresh, the employees are friendly and professional. There's a drive thru, a sit down diner, and you can call your order in ahead. The diner is clean, plenty of seating, and the service is too tier. I highly recommend the carne asada fries, the Coolidge Burrito (if you like a little spice), and the supreme burrito (if you want something truly filling). They serve breakfast platters and a la carte, lunch and dinner combos/platters as well. If you're in the mood for authentic Mexican food made fresh, THIS IS YOUR SPOT! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

We were seated immediately and requested a different table, ending up in a back room. Chips and salsa were brought out right away along with small glasses of water. The music playing over the speakers was awesome, I was singing along! Having never been here before we needed a few minutes to view the menu. I decided on the Mazatlan which included a ground beef taco, either hard or soft, and a cheese enchilada with rice and beans. I also requested a glass of Moscato. Our drinks came out right away and the food shortly thereafter. The meal was absolutely delicious, incredibly satisfying, and the flavors were amazing. Because it was my birthday, I got a free dessert and chose an apple empanada. OMG, it was SO good!!!! Our server was Jimmy, he was so charismatic and personable! His great attitude was the icing on the cake, our experience was so pleasant! With an abundance of choices for Mexican food in Casa Grande, I am really glad that we came here tonight. We will definitely be back!!

I have been going to this incredible Mexican Restaurant since 2005. They always are welcoming, and…read morethey are always caring. This Family-owned restaurant is where families have dined forever. Besides in 20 years, the guests we've taken there, really had a great time. People have different likes and dislikes, allowing them the "freedom" to decide. Here is what I would tell you if you asked, if I knew of a really good Mexican Restaurant in Casa Grande. I would recommend Mi Amigo Ricardo, and here's why . . . . . We've been going about twice a month, always enjoy going. For Lunch or Dinner, you can't beat it. Great Authentic Mexican Food, excellent service, great prices. When we get there, we feel like we are eating in a restaurant in a nice town on the coast. You eat there several times and become comfortable, and I like comfortable. It's what we should all do. "My" choice, is always Mi Amigo Ricardo. Oh, it's okay to ask for more chips anytime you want, they have lots more.

I used the restroom when I arrived and noticed that the edging was falling off the bottom of the wall. It was very quiet , no music over the speakers. The location is very dated and there is a notice on the dining room door that they are temporarily unable to serve alcohol. Once inside there was a sign to seat myself, I chose a booth towards the back. A menu, small bowl of chips, and a chilled bottle of salsa were brought out to me pretty quickly. Eventually music started playing as the dinner crowd steadily streamed in. Service was very quick and the staff are all very friendly. I ordered the number 4 combo that consisted of two cheese and onion enchiladas, rice and beans. The meal was served hot and the food stayed warm as I ate. Every bite was delicious! For desert I tried the deep fried Ice Cream, served in a fried shell, it had powdered sugar, whipped cream, chocolate drizzle and cherries on top. It was scrumptious as expected. This restaurant is tucked away off of Cottonwood and Trekkel, if you don't know it is here, you can easily miss it. I highly recommend checking it out and enjoying some very good Mexican food!

I could have used a bit more zip in the enchilada sauce but it was good. The onions could also have been chopped smaller. The chips were good but they only have one type of salsa in a squeeze bottle which was just okay. Overall good food, good service and a nice lunch.

What a great find. The food was exactly what you want after a warm Arizona afternoon--fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. Classic Mexican comfort food done right. But honestly, what made it stand out was the whole experience: relaxed atmosphere, friendly service, and the kind of place where you can sit, catch up, and lose track of time over good conversation. Between the history, the desert views, and a really satisfying meal, it turned into one of those unexpectedly perfect Arizona days. Definitely worth the stop if you're anywhere near Coolidge.

Service was excellent and we were treated as valued customers and other waitstaff checked on us regularly. So they work as a team.

Our family makes those on special occasions. I liked the variety on the kids menu for my grandkids and they serve apple juice which is healthier. Clean and warm environment. Would highly recommend.

We got the taco combo plate and 3 single tacos. I chose the chicken, pork and steak and he got chicken, steak and birria ($1.25 extra). First off, these street tacos are packed with meat which was good to see. I love trying street tacos and I've tried many. For me, the flavor of the al pastor (pork) was the best of the meats. Second to that was the steak. The others didn't have a lot of noticeable flavor imo. I did slather each of them in the red and green salsas to add some moisture and added heat. As for the side of rice and beans, I liked the beans, they were cooked well and had good flavor. The rice we got was hard and seemed to have been in a warmer or something for too long since it was crispy and dry. This could have been a "one off" type situation. The interior dining area is small but that's to be expected for this type of taco shop. The staff there today seemed nice and genuinely care about their customers.

The California burrito was very tasty, and the steak, potatoes, and onions were cut into small pieces to provide a good texture. The side of chopped lettuce and tomatoes added a freshness when mixed with each bite if the burrito. Also they had a good unsweetened iced tea which is often hard to find at restaurants. Service was very friendly. We sat ourselves, which I prefer, and each table is numbered. Menus are located table side and after the wait staff takes the order and brings the food - when you are finished, you go to the register to pay giving them your table #. Very efficient! We will be returning to try other menu items!
