Ricardo's Mexican: Authentic Mexican Cuisine in Glendale

i almost didn't go in here, it was after seven already, some of the reviews made it seem like i might not be the most welcome but that was not my experience. the lady behind the counter was friendly and helpful. she helped me order the burrito i wanted the way i wanted it. was patient while waiting for me to figure out if there was anything else i wanted. after i ordered she came out and showed me the salsa bar and told me about the different ones. i got around half way through my chile relleno chimichanga when i thought i better stop before i explode. it was so delicious i ended up finishing the whole thing (i didn't explode). i probably shouldn't have had the veggie taco first, except it was also very good a i am glad i tried it. and i thought there is no way i can eat the churros but they were so good i couldn't stop myself. i got so much good food i could barely finish it and i didn't spend any more than i would have at taco bell.

Best chilaquiles in the area! This spot is a favorite for breakfast on the weekends when we are in the area. The food is always delish and the service is great too!

Food is amazing, very very good. We live in Mohave Valley and drive down to Phoenix for our children's doctor visits, stopped by here for lunch because I seen it had great reviews and the reviews were correct. We will be back to eat again. Excellent tostada's Ricardo's!! Loved them

Ricardo's Taco Tuesday Overall, everything was very fresh. Pricing for Taco Tuesday was great. I appreciate the free salsa bar. I appreciated the double wrapped soft tacos. All tacos were very full. All cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, cabbage, and pico were cold, crisp, and fresh. My husband really enjoyed the chips and the hard shells. The staff was very nice and helpful. Salsa Bar -Jitomate- mild, red, fresh, not very chunky, cilantro was tasted in a good way, I would have liked it to be chunkier -Green- medium, was not spicy but was fresh, herby, tart, went great on fish Taco, and my favorite -Ricardo’s- medium, orangish, didn't care for and unsure how to describe -Caliente- hot, red, had a nice black peppery taste to it -Torito’s- extra hot, green, didn't seem hot at first then three bites in, the spice was a sneak attack, in a good way -Hot carrots were cut into large, thick circles, nicely marinaded, spicy but not too much, soft but with a nice crunch -Seasoned onions, I thought I got but apparently didn't -Limes were nicely tart -Grilled onions were nicely cooked and soft while still having a nice crunch, I could eat -Fresh Iced Tea, tasted like Lipton and was cold and fresh -Chips were crispy, nicely salted, a great thickness to dip in salsas or guacamole -Hard shell shredded beef needed salt, was a bit bland, but once I got to the salt, cheese, lettuce, and medium green salsa it was very good -Hard shell shredded chicken was inedible, the chicken was so dry my husband had a hard time swallowing it, although he said he liked the flavor, I thought it tasted like cardboard -Hard shell veggie was basically a bean taco, which I enjoyed with some salt -Soft Fried Fish was my absolute favorite, two nice size pieces of fried fish, fresh cabbage and pico, along with really good white sauce. I added a little lime and green medium salsa, split into two tacos since it was double wrapped. I would come back for this for sure. I'd ask for sauce on the side to keep the fish crispy and I'd ask for more sauce since it was so good. -Birra Street Taco was oddly sweet but ultimately my husband's favorite -Consume was oddly sweet, a bit bland but not bad I'm sure we will be back.

I had an exceptional experience! The welcoming atmosphere and attentive staff made me feel at home. The Carne Asada burrito was incredibly flavorful, and I loved sampling the salsa bar. The bathrooms were spotless too. This place is a must-visit!

Got lucky to find this place!! I’ve been back several times now and it is really good!! Love the breakfast burritos and the salsa bar !!

This is our favourite place to come for Breakfast Burritos. They are perfect every time! We live abroad in the UK, and come back to visit my family every Xmas. We come here every other day and the quality is second to none. We've tried several places in the valley, and none of them are as good. We visit my friends in San Diego and still prefer the burritos in Ricardo's! We do want to come for dinner at some point and try the Birria.

1st time in this establishment. I believe I met Ricardo, the owner, very cool man. Cashier was very helpful, pleasant, nice and explained combo plates and my options. I got the chicken enchilada with chicken taco, beans and rice meal. The meal was very tasty and delicious. Chicken, beans and rice had the right amount of spices and tasted very freash Red sauce I will be coming back to try more! The atmosphere was very Comfortable and like the set up and theme throughout restaurant, very cool! The Salsa bar I give 5 star , Area was very clean, No flies, No finger prints and best of all everything looked fresh! On this review I give it 4 stars at this time; however, in the future may give the establishment 5 Stars after tasting more options! Delicious
