A hidden gem! We love this place. I find the menu to be the perfect balance of classics you would expect and delicious surprises. Try the Puerco Verde! It's been sabroso! Margaritas are delicious. A hidden gem!
Delicious food and a great atmosphere.
Honestly this is one of my absolute favorite dining spots in the city the family that owns it the woman is an incredible cook chef and blends her menu in a stunning way the mushroom soup that we had this past weekend was to die for I mean who would have thought in New Mexican restaurant you could get mushroom soup but it was out of this world the family parts of the family work there on and off. The owner and host are Charming super educated very refined and not too bad on the eyes either, her whole operation sings. We stopped going there quite honestly for about 3 years because of one bad waiter they had that just turned us off completely and we decided to try again back in the middle of the summer and of course we're recharmed and red delighted and re-enthralled and we learned that that particular wait staff person had been let go and the owner was upset with us for not having told her 3 years ago instead of letting her find it out on her own So Good Humor on that. I cannot recommend this place highly enough do yourself a favor and go and enjoy.
New on this menu, mushroom soup. Ask for it. Truly one of patties best recipes.
Amazing. Patty is a true gift to hospitality and not to forget the food is incredible, hand made, and always fresh. Food specials are always outstanding and unique. HANDS DOWN the best Margarita in Chicago. In my 20yrs in the liquor industry I’m sure of it. If you find a better one I’ll buy it for you. Always hand squeezed lime makes the difference. Que Rico is/was an every Friday visit. Plus she always decorates for the holidays. Love!!!! Kid-friendliness: Very very kid friendly bc Patty is a sweetheart. But definitely not a kid zoo.
Authentic food. Great service. Wonderful people
We went to Que Rico for the first time and loved it! The food was great and the portions were huge. Free chips and salsa was great as well. The restaurant is very cute and cozy and the staff was super attentive and friendly! The house margarita was fresh and delicious as well. We will be back!
Great little local place that’s been around for years and does mexican right. Great servers amd atmosphere too!
