Riko Burrito — Restaurant in Bloom Township

My wife and I placed an order for pickup on 1/31/24. This is our first time at this restaurant. Upon arrival; the cashier had trouble taking/placing the order. Due to a language barrier between my wife and the cashier. We don't speak Spanish and the cashier don't speak English. Who cares right. As long as the food is good. Well, the food was HORRIBLE. The Al Pastor meat tacos were over cooked. I'm serious, the meat was crunchy. The chicken fajitas; the vegetables and chicken were over cooked. The sauce was tasteless and bland. Just horrible, (see picture). I would have bought the food back for refund. The weather was so bad. It wasnt worth the effort or stress. I'm confused on so many positive reviews. Was this a bad night for the cook? Was...

I had to stay in Park Forest for a week, and recently moved to rural Michigan from Chicago. There isn't a lot of good authentic Mexican food around me now.

So, looked around and the two highest rated around there were Riko's and a place off I57.

I went for Riko's. I did really like it, but I gotta say it was a little dry. I did the 3 taco dinner with 1 picadeo, 1 rib eye and 1 asada. The rice and beans were fine, and everything tasted good. The meat was the dry part.

I took 1 star off for the dry, but I'll definitely give it another shot. I will try a couple other places around there and report back...could have...

We absolutely love this place. If you want real Mexican food, this is the place. The food is extremely good and so is the service. If you like spicy food, the bistec a la mexicana is very flavorful and about as hot as you can handle. I mean really spicy. If that's too hot for you, the bistec ranchero is a better option, but still having a little bit of spice and a lot a bit of flavor. The fajitas come out sizzling fresh and is also very good. Pretty much everything is good. I can't say enough good things about this place. I hope they stay...
