Not sure why the reviews for this place are so great.
I guess people in Allen don't know better, but the food here is not good tex-mex. I had enchiladas. The ones at Taco Bueno are better. My wife had quesadillas and said the ones at Taco Bell are better. The queso was good and its not a chain, so I give it 2 stars. After reading the reviews here I set my expectations high. That was a mistake. Next time, I'll back to one of the places I enjoy... Uncle Julios, Mi Cocina, Taco Diner, or maybe even Mexi-go.

Not That Great
I'm not sure I was in the same place rated here. Best Mexican? Best Burrito? Are you people kidding? There's not even a burrito on the menu. I sense ballot stuffing. The "family recipe" queso "topped with bell peppers" had no such topping, and was a bowl of melted Mexican velveeta. Waiter explanation was that the peppers are in the cheese. Uh, yeah. The "smokeless fajitas" are smokeless because they are cooked ahead of time and rewarmed for serving. Make no mistate, this is a kids and family joint at best.

2 different experiences, same restaurant
I went to Ricardo's because it was rated so highly on citysearch. My first visit was lunch about 2 weeks ago. It was on Tuesday when they have a fajita deal. I had the chicken and steak, super generous portion. I was starving and still took half of it home and it was good value at half off. Lots of business people having office lunch parties that day. It was delicious. However, when i returned in the evening with my family one week later we had enchiladas, tacos, and the tortilla soup. They were all disappointing. Especially the bland soup. So, If you are in a fajita mood, I could recommend those, otherwise I like Luna de Noche or La Hacienda Ranch for the other tex mex fare. The service is good.

Best Fajita Fare around!
Our family loves eating the chicken fajita's with the one-of-a-kind seasoning. The seasoning on the chicken fajita's is reason enough to drive across town past numerous other Tex-Mex restaurants. Add an order of beef fajita nachos and you have the perfect combination of Ricardo's specialties.

Great Fajitas and Very Clean.
Had a wonderful visit. The fajitas were great (and they're even on special one night) and I loved the chips and salsa as well. Would def. recommend and I will def. be coming back!

No way this should be #1
I hate to say negative things about a restaurant but to rank them #1 destroys the validity of this whole process and makes me question the accuracy of anything on this website.

Taco Bueno at 10 times the price!
This place is highly rated? If you look at the dates of the positive reviews, you will notice a block of them on the same day. (see 07/18/2007). You will also notice that every profile in that block have reviewed one place: "Ricardo's". HHHHHHmmm seems a bit fishy to me but derive what you will from that.Worldwide > United States > Allen, TX > Fast Food Restaurants
