We were at Cabela's and the family was hungry for something to eat. There were only chain restaurants nearby, so we found this spot on Yelp. It had so many excellent reviews. We stopped in and the place was not busy. The staff were nice and the food was good. The bathrooms were not clean at all. They were horrible and made us concerned how clean the rest of the place was. Prices were a bit higher than we expected. We would not come back because of the cleanliness issue. read more

Such a great place! Don't go by it as it's a tricky entrance. Food is amazing, service is friendly and you feel like you are in Mexico!

Can't give them a good rating because they apparently closed up shop! And that's really tragic because the food was authentically Mexican and fantastic. And the place was very kitschy and kind of a fun atmosphere to be in. So sad it's gone. read more

Literally in the middle of nowhere and worth the trip from anywhere. This small family owned restaurant set in a magical 1940s vintage roadside dining hall will have you stunned with the quality and imagination of their food. Pulling from various family members' backgrounds, this mostly Mexican infuses Korean bbq with Bulgogi Burritos, Korean Galbi style steak, and straight up bibimbop bowls. When one of the fathers is around, pho shows up on the menu. Most importantly, the food is delicious and exceptionally fresh. The bulgogi is some of the best flavored I've ever had in Pennsylvania. Chips and salsa homemade of course. There's a small bar menu consisting of a few beers and absolutely wonderful simple margaritas. Convenient to route 78 in the Hamburg area about 10 minutes from Cabelas, if you're driving through or you're in the Lehigh Valley, Reading, Lancaster areas you have to try Rico Casa. read more

fajitas have chewy very very thick cut meat. that sure isnt carne asada. whatever it is needs to be seriously marinated to be soft. I have never encountered fajitas like that in my life. I was iffy on trying the place being it is not an authentic mexican only restaurant meaning its vietnamese food also. the guac was ok. pretty decent but for take out even for $15 was a tiny container usually in the resturant for $15 its double that size. the chips arent corn they are home made fried to a crisp flour tortillas. they dont taste like corn tortilla chips at all. never had this kind either at a mexican restaurant i dont like them. not the worst mexican food ive had but not good enough for me to return and pay the same price i would at plaza azteca which is the best around. the burritos were pretty good not what im used to for mexican burrito but good. and the meat was a lot softer than the fajitas go figure that. I cook and I am not mexican but i can make better fajitas and salsa. I have done it many times. I like to order food or go to restaurant so i dont have to cook. read more

Excellent fresh, delicious food! We went last year and today when passing through the area. Today my family got a chicken burrito, pork & pineapple burrito, and chicken enchiladas. Free homemade tortilla chips and salsa too. Excellent customer service. Seating choices between booths and tables and chairs. I like the fusion options between Mexican and Asian food. read more

I got the taco dorado cheese for dinner which came with japchae noodles. The noodles were the highlight of the dish and were good - a solid 6/10. The tacos were similar to a taquito filled with mozzarella sticks and were underwhelming. Although the food was decent, the concept of "Mexican Korean fusion" did not come to fruition on my plate as it was simply two different cuisines presented together. Overall the place is clean and service was very quick - we got our food within fifteen minutes of ordering, and the chips and salsa were good. I think if they developed their menu and the "fusion" vision more this place could do wonders! read more

I live in Southern California where Mexican food is in abundance. Was visiting a friend who left CA for PA & we decided to check out Rico Casa. We were glad that we did. The food was yummy & the service, superb. This family-run restaurant is unique in that it offers an array of both Mexican and Korean cuisine. I had the spring rolls with peanut sauce and the chicken enchilada with black beans and rice. I added some hot green sauce to give it more zing. It was delicious as was the salsa. The food was clean; it tasted homemade. The servers were pleasant, friendly, and accommodating. If you are in, near, or passing through Shoemaker, I suggest you check this place out. Bon appétit! read more

Was a little thrown when we pulled into the parking lot and seen the sign for 2$ tacos AND pho. But we were not disappointed. Tacos were fresh and tasty and the pho was spot on. Also our waiter was super friendly and spoke to the menu incase we were confused. We will be back! read more

Delicious!!! Everything was so fresh and the staff is very friendly. I will definitely try the poke bowl next time. I wish I had room for dessert, they like ones so good!! read more

So glad we found this gem! Fantastic service, family-friendly, no wait time, and great food! What's not to love? We met one of the owners, JB, and had such a pleasant conversation with him about how his dad's dream of opening a restaurant has come to fruition. His dad is the head chef and has 28 years of experience cooking in NYC! The plating, quality of taste and ingredients show his passion for cooking. We ordered panko-crusted mozzarella cheese sticks and guacamole as appetizers. They made the guac table-side which was a nice surprise, and as fresh as it gets. Our family entrees included a chicken quesadilla with shredded carrots inside (so tasty actually!), beef and chicken enchiladas with a slightly-spicy green sauce, and a steak burrito. Everyone from a toddler to the adults enjoyed it all. They weren't as busy as they should be, having opened earlier this year. I'm going to tell everyone to come support this great family-run restaurant. You won't be sorry you tried it out. I can't wait to come back to try the Korean and Pho! read more

So I might designate this my new favorite restaurant. I have had their food twice and both times they were fantastic! The second time we actually ate there. The staff is super friendly and on the ball with drinks and salsa chips.The guacamole was delicious and fresh tasting. My wife ordered chicken tacos and enjoyed them. My son ordered the spring roll appetizer and quesadillas. He couldn't finish them because it was a lot of food. I ordered the Pho and it was delicious and filling. I am loving the whole Mexican-Asian fusion. I talked to one of the owners and he said they will adding more Korean dishes to the menu. I hope this place keeps going and we will definitely be back. read more

Rico Casa - The table side guacamole is great! - Korean Near Me - Hamburg, Pennsylvania

First off with I observed every table that was being cleared sterilized after turnover including the table top and chairs. I am no food expert I either like something or I don't and I loved the food here at Rico Casa. I tried a Mexican dish the chorizo and potato quesadilla and the bulgogi rice bowl and both were amazing. With the Korean food I have some experience from living there and this was on point! The food is a different style of Mexican cuisine different spices but equally as good as our other Mexican restaurants in Berks County. The staff were friendly and efficient. I know new restaurants tend to have growing pains but if this was in that growing pain window and they are only going to get better from an outstanding experience I had I can't wait to see where they end up. Do yourself a favor and give Rico Casa a try I hope you enjoy as much as I did. read more

It's a fun place with great food and really friendly people . Definitely coming back!

Was a little cautious since newer shop and previous restaurant never pulled through here. Lot had about 3 cars in so I gave it a shot. Great tacos, outstanding service and very fast. Had our dinner for 3 within about 10 minutes. Food was very tasty and authentic. Atmosphere was great. Will be coming again! read more

Once you try their food you are hooked! And the owners are such sweethearts that love and support good causes like animal rescues!

This place is worth a drive!! The food is EXCELLENT and the service was PERFECT. It is a family owned and run business--you can tell that their focus is providing their customers with a wonderful experience! We love about 30 miles from Rico Casa--but it will be our go to--for Mexican and Korean/Vietnamese! read more

My husband and I were driving home from NYC and wanted to make a quick stop to eat. This restaurant came up on yelp. When we pulled up to the parking area, we weren't sure we wanted to go inside, as it is out in the middle of nowhere. We decided to give it a try and you should too. The staff was very welcoming. We ordered chicken fajitas and the pho that they advertised on their sign outside. The pho was delicious!!! This was a shocker because we didn't expect this meal in their menu. If you're a fan of pho, don't hesitate to try this soup. The chicken fajitas were good. It was served with rice and beans. I missed the lettuce and tomatoes but overall a good meal. The nachos and salsa served at the beginning of the meal were also tasty. The waitress was very attentive and eager to please. read more

I was visiting family in the area and stumbled on Ricos Casa. Great environment to go in and ear. The staff were friendly and very fast on attending and keeping an eye on anything we needed. Was very impressed on their breakfast selection it felt like home cooking. Went back for lunch and their tacos and some other plates with the family.My favorite was the sweet and sour wings OMG! they were so good I had to get another order. The carne asada was amazing and seasoned perfectly and the texture of the meat was so soft almost felt like it melted in the mouth. Was very pleased satisfied and full at the end of the visit. While hanging around after paying the bill got to speak with the Owner and told me how he started the restaurant with his family. Overall great time highly recommend and definitely will return for some more wings. read more

The wife and I stopped in because we were intrigued by the taco joint that also serves pho. I got Al pastor tacos and she got bulgogi. Both were outstanding. Fresh salsa and handmade guacamole. You can tell the chef really cares about the quality of his dishes. We've since been back several times and it has become our go to place for casual food. Family owned and operated. Highly recommended read more

Family owned business with great service. Clean, fresh food, and quality food. I highly recommend this establishment as we go there often. A++ to the owners, staff and cooks. We look forward to coming again soon. Todd Brigitte Singley read more

Got Pho to go. It was very good we got the beef will definitely go back again! Would like to try more on the menu.

Stopped there today with my wife and thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We have been to a fair share of other Mexican restaurants and the two dishes we had here were excellent, I had enchiladas Verde and she had the chicken quesadillas. Both were very good and FRESH, right down to the salsa they served with the chips, it was all very clean and fresh tasting with well balanced flavors. Menu is a bit limited right now with more to come. What they do serve right now is well executed, stop by and give it a try. Very nice owners. read more

The pho is excellent, staff are friendly, atmosphere is great. Hard to ask for a better place to eat.

First of all, friendliest staff of any restaurant I've ever been. Had my doubts about it before I even tried it because the area has very limited selection of dining and not so good quality. Not so with Rico Casa. Delicious, Authentic Mexican food. They also have a few Asian dishes I have not tried yet but have heard are fantastic. Steak fajitas were perfect! Fresh made guacamole the best I've ever had. Been there a few times now and I have nothing bad to say about it. Great food! read more

I wasn't interested in trying this place at first only because nothing seems to last in the location, but when someone suggested it and swore that Rico Casa was legit, I gave in and called after work one night. I was told they were about to close in 3 minutes, but the host insisted I make an order anyway for pick up and I'm glad I did; the spicy pork and steak tocos were true Mexican style tacos and delicious and the rice and beans were even to die for. I might go broke eating here often, especially because there's nothing all that great in the shoemakersville/mohrsville/centerport area. read more

Just had street tacos from this place and the toppings you put on are out of this world. Keep up the great work

My wife and I make this a regular stop. Everything is good. Staff and owner very friendly. We love this place!

QUALITY FOOD. I mean super great food. And such unique items. But more than that, lovely family owned business. The friendliest service. We ordered through DoorDash once and DoorDash couldn't find a driver.. next thing we know, they personally delivered the food AFTER they closed and left a sweet note! Can't get enough of this place !! read more
