To be honest, I was a little thrown off by all the negative reviews about this place. But when I went, the workers were friendly, and the service was quick as well. To top it off, this may have been the best acai bowl I have ever tasted! The acai was not gritty at all, unlike what some of the reviews have claimed. The fruits were all fresh and sweet too. I’m glad I gave this place a try. Can’t wait to go again!!

Went to Rico’s and paid over $18 dollars for a rainbow bowl that was terribly put together along with bad rotten fruit inside and after asking/ paying for extra Nutella (because I know they like to be stingy) I still get a dime size amount right on top. I stopped coming here for a while simply because of the customer service being terrible but that seems to not be the only thing going bad here.

Bowl was good, but not enough Acia, for $17 for a small, just would like more.

Açaí base was crumbles ice crystals, out of blueberries, small drizzle of almond butter on bowl. Waste of money and not tasty

Everything tasted great, both ladies working at 6:30pm on Sunday , September 1st, 2024, had absolutely no will to work or serve despite there being no one else in the building bedsides me. Made me feel very unwelcome and I was honestly uncomfortable waiting for my order to be ready, good fruit. Terrible service.

I started coming here on my lunch and today will be the last. The first two pictures were a small bowl that I paid 20 dollars for. They charged me 5 dollars for Nutella when there’s none to be found in my bowl?? The third picture is the large bowl that was ALSO 20 dollars but same stuff.. I don’t see how the small and large both came out to be the same price and get charged 5 dollars for Nutella that wasn’t even in my bowl as seen in the first two pictures. I will not be coming back unfortunately.
I frequently go to Rico’s and usually have a great experience. Today for lunch I ordered my to go bowls at 12:07 and picked them up at 12:35 and then had to wait another 15 minutes for my order. The girl working was very rude to me and the other costumers waiting- like we were an huge inconvenience to her. Then she wiped the sweat off her face with her gloved hand and continued to touch the food.

I absolutely love Rico's Acai. The workers are always so kind and helpful. The butterbro is my favorite bowl, and I love that we can make substitutions. The rewards program is also very helpful. Thank you for everything y'all do!

I loved eating at Rico’s until one day I went and got food poisoning. I threw up nearly 6 pounds in a short period of a day. It has been three days since I ate here and I am still unable to keep food down or any sort of liquid without throwing it up. My whole body aches and I am severely dehydrated. I read the reviews on this place and saw someone complaining about mold. I do not believe their fruit is as fresh as they say it is. I unfortunately had to go to the hospital due to the dehydration after throwing up so much.

I enjoy Rico's, there's nothing I've had that I didn't like....but really wished they would open earlier. I go to a gym around the corner and it would be convenient to stop here after. I usually end up at a competitor due to their hours.
food tasted good and the employee was nice. only problem i had was that one of the raspberries had mold on
