About Rico’s Seafood and Tex—Mex Restaurant

Rico's Seafood and Tex-Mex Restaurant is a hidden gem offering delicious food at reasonable prices. The catfish ceviche tostada is a must-try, and the key lime pie is highly recommended. The owner, Albert, is known for his friendliness. The restaurant also features TVs for entertainment while dining, showcasing re-runs of shows like The Lone Ranger. Many customers praise the seafood offerings, noting that the raw oysters were big and delicious, and the shrimp chalupa and shrimp cocktail were outstanding. The fried catfish is hand-breaded with cornmeal and cooked perfectly, while the hush puppies are homemade.

Although some dishes like the chips and salsa could use improvement, the seafood items have received high marks. The restaurant is clean and provides a comfortable atmosphere, appreciated especially on hot days. Despite not having a liquor license, Rico's remains a favorite among seafood lovers. However, service can vary, with some guests noting that staff may need more training. Overall, Rico's is a local small family-owned business that deserves support for its excellent seafood and friendly environment.
