Okay heres the deal - sure, Ricardos is no Michelin star restaurant. Its a classic Tex-Mex restaurant, think along the lines of a better version of Azteca. But having eaten here over 100 times since growing up, Ricardos has always been consistent, and has always delivered on its promise. Huge portions, unlimited chips and salsa (that actually tastes good and isnt watered down), giant margaritas, plenty of space, and kind servers who may not interact with you much as they fast walk to their next booth, but somehow always get you your food quickly despite seeming chronically understaffed. All my friends who I have convinced to come here know it as my favorite restaurant, and much to their chagrin, have been unable to help themselves from enjoying it too, or even requesting we go there for dinner themselves. If you are craving a big portion of some excellent, down to earth Tex-Mex without pretense, Ricardos will welcome you warmly through their doors. On my way to my wedding reception venue, my now wife and two close friends surprised me with a quick photo shoot outside the restaurant, if that is any indication of my feelings towards this place. I recommend one of the Monterrey Combinations if you have a big appetite like myself, or a Fajita plate to share. For vegetarians, the cheese and onion enchiladas with black beans are delicious. Now en route to our honeymoon in Italy, I am asking myself, do they have a Ricardos over there?
