What customers say?

“ Small towns have the best food and the best service. Chicken fry was amazing. It’s worth the drive if you live in San Angelo. I haven’t had a chicken fry this good in 10 years. ”

“ Very good food for the middle of nowhere. The prices are fair for the location. You're 30 min tot he closest city, but for people who work in the area, this is good mood food. Menu has good selection. Food is always hot and fresh. ”

“ Pretty average looking place, so I was really surprised when our food came. Super friendly and on the spot with service at boot! I got the double meat cheeseburger and it was so big I had to squish it to get it in my mouth.... barely. And the french fries were delicious, some crunchies on them. ”

“ I must say, the enchilada sauce was very flavorful along with the beans and rice that was served. Hospitality, coming from someone that was in the business for over 30 years, was very warm and welcoming. ”

- Mark Gomez -

“ Many restaurants have come and gone in Mertzon, but Rico's has been here more than 15 years, with consistently high quality. Everything is delicious, from burritos to burgers, and breakfast is great too. It's not cheap, but operating in a small town never is. Rico's is a gem out here in the desert. ”

- Raymond Cherry -

“ Typical diner food and Tex-Mex dishes prepared mostly in the Concho Valley style. If you like mom-and-pop holes in the wall like I do, look no further. Pricier than I expected but I'd definitely go back again sometime. ”

- Tim Kreitz Adventures -

“ Just a small town hole in the wall. This places has been there for decades! Not sure about anything but breakfast but they have the best breakfast tacos I've had west of fort worth. ”
