I wasn't a fan of Mexican food until the first time I came to this establishment for their Taco Thursday. The el pastor and tripe tacos are so good along with their green sauce. The fundido (cheese with chorizos) - yum. Place is super clean and staff are welcoming. I told a few of my friends to go and they enjoyed the food as well and have returned with their loved ones. I have been to other Mexican restaurants to eat their tacos however I continue to return to this restaurant. If you are in the Stafford area - give this place a try. read more

Currently the best taco joint to go to. It's no taco bamba but it'll do. I dined in the other day and the next day I had to get more tacos. We ordered the chimichinga and that was ok, never had one before but it was tasty, would I get it again? Probably not. The tacos was what I came for. I had me the chicken and the asada tacos. Chicken was moist, it was not dried as I thought it would be, the steak was juicy ad well. Thursday for half off tacos!! read more

When you eat food that just hugs you. This place is located in stafford , rt1. Their waiter greeted me with such a nice and welcoming smile. I think we came at the right time too, cause it was getting busy once we sat down, plus it's the weekend. I ordered pozole, and birria tacos. I made sure I wore a dress, cause you know - this is like thanksgiving for me. I need to hide that FUPA. (lol). Took a little bit for our food to be served. I was in that "i'm about to be hangry mood?" But once it was served ? It was amazing. The pozole was hot and delicious. Toss all the deliciousness in there too. ( onions, cilantro, chili, and that squeeze of lime). It was hugging me with every spoonful bite I make. The meat was so tender. The birria was good too. I would have added a little salt?. The tortilla could have been cooked a little longer too, so it can have that crust of the sauce, but it was okay. Everything was great. Only sad thing was, I wish I can drink. If i wasn't allergic, I would have ordered drinks too. They were making drinks left and right, and man, did it look refreshing!! read more

First calling this place and speaking to a young very rude woman taking my pick up order. Asking for nachos with only meat, cheese, and chips and getting everything on top and clearly an attempt to remove it judging by the finger smears. My husband arrived to pick up the order and again was greeting with attitude. We will not be going back. read more

We ordered food twice from Rico Tacos Moya from Uber eats and the food was overall pretty good. We were impressed and excited that we found a good local Mexican spot. We were out today and called in our order over the phone. They asked us to pay and I thought it was to help with COVID precautions. Food was said to be ready in about 25 minutes. Ran into Target grabbed a few items and arrived about 40 minutes later. My husband went in to pick up the food and had to wait another 30 minutes. I think they forgot to place the order but I was surprised since they took payment. The manager or staff never apologized for the wait or anything. We were just going to write it off as a bad night until we got home and realized that half of our order was missing. Churros, taco, chimichanga, and the wraps for my fajitas were missing. At this point I was just going to call to have them to refund me for the missing items since we spent $77. Long story the manager wanted us to come back and pick up the food or come back and get a the refund. My issue was I wasn't leaving back out in the rain with my kids at 8:30pm to pick up half of my order while the other half was getting cold after waiting over an hour to get the food. Also they took my payment over the phone why couldn't I be refunded over the phone and the final straw was I did not have the wraps for my fajitas and they didn't want to take anything off. I told them to keep the food and the money. We will not be returning. Pretty disappointed because the food was pretty good. read more

Ricos was really good. I've been to the other two Mexican restaurants in stafford a bunch before and was pleased to hear there was another one to try. You can tell Ricos is authentic the moment you step inside. The service is friendly, but a little slow. Their birria tacos are some of the best I've ever had. Highly recommend! read more

Birria tacos are horrible maybe the worst Birria tacos I've ever had! Asada torta was average. Agua Chile came out more agua then Chile we let the manager know but they were rude about it and added more money to our bill as a tip NEVER COMING BACK!! Terrible service read more

Finally decided to give Rico's Taco's a try and I left a bit disappointed. The restaurant is quite large and I was a bit surprised to see it so empty with there being about 30+ tables in the restaurant. The restaurant is bright and well lit with a full bar. I also got the impression it might double as a dance hall / nightclub on weekend nights as there is a DJ set up but I could be wrong so don't hold me to that if you are looking for a place to dance and drink in Stafford. The service was good and my waitress was friendly and attentive to my dining needs and checked in on me from time to time but I was only one of two customers in the restaurant at the time. The thing that disappointed me was the food though. I was given the complimentary chips and salsa but the chips were like a half basket, you run out of chips before the salsa is gone. I know so could have asked for more but I didn't want to risk a full basket and then waste it. I ordered an appetizer of the Queso Fundido with Chorizo sausage and this is where I should have read the description and not assumed it would be your typical served Queso. The Queso Fundido was mozzarella cheese and it was like a semi soft brick of cheese and was not like a melted saucy cheese. It came with 3 flour tortillas and you basically cut up the cheese and chorizo and eat it. Okay, it wasn't bad but it wasn't what I expected either so that is my fault. For my meal I ordered the mixed fajitas with chicken, steak, and shrimp. The fajitas arrived with rice and beans, a plate with lettuce, sour cream, pico, and guacamole. The meats for the fajitas were cut in large chunks and need to be cut down to eat, especially the steak. My disappointment started after I made my first fajita, the chicken was a bit tough which is not something I expected from chicken but I got through it. The second fajita was with the steak and the steak was brutal. The steak was like chewing a piece of rubber, there was no breaking it off as a bite. The third fajita was a shrimp and this was just terrible, it the mixed fajita meal they give you 3 shrimp and burrito open and grill it with the shell still on it. Leaving the shell on it and leaving the shell on made the meat shred as you removed it from the shell and the rest of the meat is stuck to the shell. So you get a teaspoon full of edible shrimp. So in all I would not recommend the mixed fajitas and go with either the chicken or rubber steak, at $18.95 the mixed fajitas are not worth it. read more

There was a LOT of comments about this one. I have to say, I think it's a bit over-hyped. The salsa is really good. A bit runny, but has a good flavor. We ordered some choriso with queso. The cheese was solid. We had to cut it with a knife and were not able to dip the chips in it. I had the steak tacos, which were very tasty, but they were a bit stingy with the meat. They were pretty small tacos. This is not bad at all, but after reading so many comments, my expectations were a bit higher than what I got. The waitstaff were friendly and the place was comfortable, though. read more

No... just don't. VA "mexican" has done it again, over promised and under delivered. The chips and salsa... weis chips warmed served with mild pace picante sauce? The Horchata... watery and pretty sure it's just a mix, nothing original or flavorful about it. Ordered three street tacos, carnitas, pastor and asada, all with cilantro and onions. Tacos served with a duo of interesting salsas. A red one with an odd flavor of liquid smoke and heat. The green sauce was served hot though had a pretty decent flavor with good heat, this should be served with the chips. Carnitas was fatty and therefore the only flavor tasted other than onion. Pastor was... well, tasted like it was tossed in a sweet BBQ sauce. Asada was okay, though a bit over cooked and tough. Why anyone would suggest this place has good tacos or otherwise is beyond me. Yet another place that fails to meet any "Tex-mex" standards that should be acceptable. Won't give this place another chance, so just move along and save your disappointment. read more

Right off the bat, no silverware is provided unless you ask for it. Had to remind multiple times about drink refills and chips & salsa (still never got it). I ordered the chicken quesadilla and there was absolutely no seasoning on the meat. The flavors are nonexistent and it's pricey. read more

I started ordering from this restaurant when I moved to Stafford two years ago. I ordered pretty much everything on the menu, my favorites being were the cabeza tacos, which used to taste awesome. With the passage of time everything, all the flavors of tacos, the size and the originality of each of the menu dishes went downhill. I ordered some food a day ago- chicken and asada tacos and trust me chicken and beef had absolutely no flavor, l felt like I was eating literally boiled meat. Only thing that is still good are churros. Im not going to order again or recommend this place to anyone. read more

Ordered take out and the food was great...the inside was very nice with plenty of seating and nice drink options. If you're looking for authentic...this is the place. The staff were very nice and helpful. read more

I stopped by after multiple people recommended this place. Let me just say it did not disappoint. I stopped by on Taco Thursday ($1.99). I finished 8 tacos and 2 cantarritos. They were delicious from the Pollo to the Carnitas. Service was fast and efficient and they were very attentive. Highly recommend you come try this place out and enjoy great tasting food in VA. Will be coming back soon especially with the chill atmosphere. It says Fridays they have live music which will be what I come check out next. read more

I wanted to love it because there were a lot of recommendations for it. My Al pastor was very salty where I couldn't even finish my taco. The chips and salsa, environment, and staff were pleasant though and my husband enjoyed his food. read more

Decided to stop in and try their tacos. Authentic Mexican street tacos and a bonus it was taco Thursday so tacos were half priced. It's truly a good. Night when I can get 5 tacos and a beer and my wife can get a jumbo margaritas and 5 tacos all under 30 bucks. I will definitely be back here with staff from my office and any friend that wants to hang out for a beer and a taco. Great service with a smile and great food. read more

Ok so this place is pretty authentic. Definitely not your standard Tex-Mex chain styled restaurant. I am hesitant to write a full on review since they have only been open for a few weeks. There are a few items on the menu that they still haven't stocked yet in the kitchen. The staff is super friendly, they are still learning the ropes as well, but all things taken into consideration they do well. If you've never had Lengua Tacos before I would highly recommend giving them a try, the meat is tender and juicy. Just try not to look at the taste buds, if you're not use to eating tongue meat it may surprise you. I am really looking forward to their full menu being available. read more

I just moved to the area and was tired of Taco Bell. I told my husband I wanted real tacos! We were skeptical as we have our "safe foods" "safe restaurants", we wanted to try something new. Firstly walking in to this place it was very welcoming. We were immediately greeted and seated! The staff were extremely friendly and it felt at home. When it came to ordering there are many choices to choose from. I got the beef tacos with rice and beans. DELICIOUS! My husband got the chicken nachos, say less because it SMACKED! We had a few margaritas which were delightful to sip on. When we ordered shots we were greeted with a CART of many choices of liquor. Never had I thought this would be so exciting. It was the coolest thing I'd ever experienced maybe that's my white side talking but we loved it! Everyone was so kind and friendly we will definitely be back. I'm glad to have found a new spot in a new area for us! read more

The food is outstanding! The servers are quick, polite , and very nice. It's a great place to relax with friends and enjoy the best restaurant in Quantico! read more

Love it. Best salsa I've ever eaten. Will be back. The service was so good, and the patio was clean and cute.

This review is based on my Husband's opinion (I have not eaten here yet). According to him, I am going to be really satisfied and the quality and freshness are on point. He said it's better than Rosa Mexicano (which we used to frequent before they started slacking). I will say this, the food looked and smells delicious, the staff was friendly, and the prices appear to be reasonable. I look forward to my visit and my updated review. read more

Ordered this through Door Dash. The chicken tacos are good, but the problem is I ordered the $8.95 fresh made large bowl of guacamole and I received a small little container of guac the size of my $2.50 order of pico de gallo -- and didn't even receive any chips. Talk about bait and switch! Including pix so you can see what their menu pictured and what I received. Normally when you order the custom guac from somewhere like El Gran Charro, they give you so much you need a big container like my dinner came in tonight to take home the leftovers as well as chips. Disappointed. Was the first and last time I'll order for RTM, since the portions they advertise and what they actually put in your order can't be depended upon. read more

Holy cow are these tacos good! We came in on taco Thursday because our children had taken a vacation to Texas and fell in love with authentic carne asada tacos. We tried a few of the local restaurants and happened upon this one. They were immediately hooked and said these tacos were even better than what they had in TX! We tried a few other styles (chorizo, beef tongue, etc) and they were all awesome. We will definitely be back. Oh and if you like chili lime, treat yourself to Michelada. Just to add, the place was outrageously packed when we went so be prepared to wait both before you sit and after you order. Maybe it was just because it was Taco Thursday but it took about 15 mins for a server to even come to our table and it took about 30 mins to get our tacos after ordering. The food is just so good I can't remove stars. Hahaha. read more

Gave this spot a second try and normally if the service or food isn't good I just don't go to the location again. For whatever reason, I decided to give this location a try again. I had ordered a Chicken and Rice with a side of chorizo for one order and for the second an enchiladas with red sauce. Got home and opened the to find that the enchiladas were wrapped in aluminum foil. We opened up the foil to find the gelatinous innards of an enchilada without the shell. I called the restaurant and asked to talk to the manager. The manager got on the phone and I introduced myself and I had to pry to retrieve his name. Which was "Jose" after explaining why I was calling. "Jose" asked what the problem was and I explained for the third time that I did not get what I ordered. I was promptly hung up on. I will not be returning to this location and if this would be the second time I going to this location; the food and management gets the one star. read more

The food is by far the best authentic mexican food i have tried , if you want real mexican tacos you have to stop by here.

It was clean. The food was okay and the margarita was good. I didn't care for the service because the waitress added her own tip to my bill. Avoided me and peeped at me around the corner to gauge my reaction. She even giggled with another employee. I had to explain to her and then another person that I choose my own tip based off of the service. They explained that they add their own tip because some people don't tip. Not me of course but some people. This isn't their policy they just do it. Based off of what? She would have gotten a better tip than the one she sneaked in had she let me make my own choice. I let it go because servers deserve their tips. In Truth it puts a bad taste in your mouth when someone helps themselves to money you earned. Let me give don't take. First and last time for me. They won the battle but lost a customer. I should have never strayed from El Gran Charro or Olla Cafe and Bar. In conclusion Not a bad place to go but pay close attention to your receipt. read more

Service was absolutely horrible. We had to keep going to the bar to ask for salsa and utensils. Our waitress never came back to help us. We waited for 25 mins to receive any type of service twice.The seats and tables were also filthy. read more

My daughter went there to pick up a door dash order the older man that helped her couldn't find the order even though they confirmed it. Instead of helping her out and taking time to fix the issue, he instead treated her like she was trying to steal food. She had a copy of the receipt, the confirmation text, the order with the name in it and everything mind you. Then after they remade the order they wouldn't give it too her. Again...SHE HAD THE RECEIPT!!! Then dude says you have to have doordash call us. But when they did he didn't answer the phone stating he was too busy. So In essence he was not only rude and treated my daughter like crap he threw away our whole order. We will never eat here again!! And I don't like to make things about race but my daughter is African American and maybe that's why he assumed she was trying to get a free meal. I will also report you to the BBB. read more
