Rico’s Taqueria is a hidden gem in Nevada City, located in a charming, tiny old house. We had two amazing carnitas burritos, which were packed with flavor and perfectly complemented by their green salsa. The lady at the counter was incredibly nice, adding a personal touch to the whole experience. Highly recommend if you’re in the area and looking for authentic, delicious Mexican food!

What a gem...this quaint taqueria has amazing food. 3 of us visited, ordering 3 different items and it was all delicious! This place will be a regular for us when we have a craving for anything "south of the border."

This place is ridiculously good. By far the best breakfast burritos in town. This is a new location and it's a little hard to find at first but it's insane that there are not more people in here. It's the best.

My elderly mother and I went here last night and it was so delicious! Seemed like really healthy and good quality ingredients and so flavorful!! My mom, who has trouble eating many things, could happily eat and enjoy this food. They also have espresso and coffee drinks, chai, smoothies and delicious baked goods. ? We both had the ground beef enchiladas plate.
First time dining here and we were pleasantly surprised.? The food was wonderful ! Quiet little place ,set back away from the street. We did not know it was a Mexican restaurant. Thought it was a smoothie/coffee shop. They have a good size food menu. We dined in for lunch and had enough leftovers for dinner later. We will definitely be back. ?Yum !!

Had the fish taco plate to go and it was delicious, about $16.50 with tax. The spicy red salsa and the green medium salsa were also excellent. Looks like they used brown rice and double corn tortillas per taco. The spinach salad with pico was a nice touch. My first time here and I will return.

The cutest place! In an old house (my favorite) & cozy atmosphere. Not to mention fantastic service! We were pleased to have many vegan and vegetarian options available to us. The vegan burrito comes with cashew cheese and is ginormous! SO MANY VEGGIES! Also, I had never tried a hibiscus flower taco before which was very unique. ? Oh, and it’s not pictured here but the tortilla soup is excellent! You can tell all of the food is homemade, made to order, fresh & high quality. We loved our experience here and will definitely be back! ?
