Rico’s Tacos

Rico’s Tacos is in a camper in the parking lot of the 1025 E.12^th St, near where the niman ranch meat plant was.
menu: quesadillas, tortas, burritos (5), tacos, aqua fresca.
sampling: lengua (tongue) and asada (beef)1.50
–tongue was tender and soft, asada a little chewy. came with fresh radish slices and stalks of green onions…
–portions seem generous, not sparse. 3,5 stars.
frijoles refritos:
–unsure if the meats are cooked here, maybe cooked elsewhere
–pretty good service.
–parking in front or in lot.

I noticed a grand opening sign for rico’s tacos as i was passing by e. 12^th. I thought it was a restaurant, but its a taco truck inside a little lot next to the infamous green house on e12th and 10^th.
The menu is limited right now
Tacos — asada, al pastor, tripas, lengua, cabeza for 1.50
Burritos with choice of meat in reg ($ 5) and super ($ 6 w/​sour cream and cheese)
Beverages and bags of chips also available. Wanted to try their agua frescas, but only had horchata today, i passed.
Tacos were good, the meat was chewy. i would prefer to get them elsewhere, but i like that they are closer than other trucks when im visiting my parents. Expected more meat and bigger portions for paying a bit more than other taco trucks.
