Rica Mex is a beloved Mexican restaurant known for its delicious and affordable dishes. The birria tacos, shrimp tacos, and rice are standout menu items, praised for their fresh, flavorful, and quick-served quality. The restaurant also offers a great kids menu and is a local favorite in the Irmo/Lexington area.
Hands down, the best and most authentic street tacos in the area, Rica Mex has become a go-to spot for families. The owner and staff are super humble and take great care of customers. Fresh, tasty food comes in large portions, with standout dishes like the 3 shrimp tacos (mango/pico/mex ranch) and birria tacos with consommé. Vegetarian options include rice, beans, chips, and quesadillas.
The atmosphere is pleasant, with a kid-friendly vibe and some outdoor seating. It’s more of a self-serve and to-go place, but the music isn’t too loud, making it easy to enjoy the food. Decent prices for both quantity and quality keep customers coming back.
