Reviews for La Cocina de Ricardo in Lake Forest, CA
A lot of reviews said that service was lacking and it must have been a different staff. We sat outside and got menus and drinks... and chips and salsa right away. I loved the chips and salsa we also got gauc! The portion size for my burrito was massive and Igot it wet with red sauce and it wasnt bad. Read more
Horrific service. Food was decent. I can't complain there. The service, HORRIBLE. Our own server didn't even know that he... NEVER took our order and then he came up and asked how our meal was. We HADN'T EVEN ORDERED BECAUSE HE NEVER CAME TO TAKE IT. And no, the place wasn't busy at all. 2 tables inside were occupied and 2 outside including mine. He had no clue. I had toflag down a woman who kept catering to the only other table outside that had people so someone would take our order. The guyserver shows up and asks how it was. ???? He never took our order so he had no idea what he was doing. We hadn't even beenserved at that point. He never once came to ask if we needed anything else or refill our drinks. This guy was useless. Couldn't even bring us the check because he came up missing again. We had to go inside the empty place and chase down thecheck. Do not go here. They can't hire a decent staff. Read more
Amazing! Great chips and salsa. Our food was delicious and so reasonably priced for the quality and quantity. We each got the 2... item combo and all of our items were amazing! The shredded beef flauta was one of the best flautas I’ve ever had! The platesare served with beans, rice, sour cream and guacamole. The rice was to die for. So delicious. Read more

The place was great the service and wait staff were great. The food looked wonderful, but was tasteless. Food had 0 flavor even... the guacamole:( I would not go back here again. Every person I saw working here was Spanish, they all spoke Spanish to eachother when moving around the restaurant. I really thought this was going to be a great tastings Mexican meal. Taco Bell has moreflavor. Sorry Read more
