    The Dishes which I have tried, barely even close to the standards of a Mexican Dish, the sauce and fillings which they serve with is not of a Mexican concepts. Literally, all dishes tasted the same, and couldn't find any differences between any. Enchilada Chicken Verde - Rice is Flavourless, Enchilada filling is the same as Taco and Nacho's. They really have to improvise on the Mexican Cuisine. Overall, for the Price we pay, I wish they can at least keep the Dining Room and Washroom cleaner.

    Best Mexican food I've tasted. Their home made tortillas are good. Friendly staff as well. You might have to plan ahead and carpool, for bigger crowd and parking spaces are limited. But Great Overall Experience! Well Done!

    Food was absolutely amazing. The food quality is still the same as the one in KB. For starters, I highly recommend the nachos (I prefer the beef). Some quesadillas and tacos (shrimp tacos is the best) as well to share. For mains, I recommend the chimichangas (a fried burrito). It can be a little too oily but it's still super good. My favourite would be the camarones a la diabla which is shrimp in chilli paste on top of Mexican rice. It taste similar to sambal prawn and just as good! For drinks, the horchata is a must try. It's a Mexican rice drink, super fragrant. You could also get it in strawberry flavour. Everything you order is amazing and I guarantee you won't be disappointed. Prices are a bit steep but it's the best Mexican restaurant in Brunei and you definitely get what you paid for! The place is lovely, very spacious and decorated nicely in Mexican themed. The service was excellent too. I am looking forward to come back again, this time nearer rather than driving to KB whenever I crave for it!

    One of the best dinings in town for the quality of food and atmosphere! A really excellent place for Mexican food even if you’re not a fan of mexican food! A must try! I do suggest carpooling as there is limited parking spaces and booking in advance especially on weekends as there tend to be big groups for dinners.

    Excellent food. The nachos portion is huge and very tasty. The jackfruit burrito is a must-try. Every drink we tried was excellent. The food is also priced well and easy to afford for a whole family. I attended their tamales tasting recently so if that's already on the menu, it's something that should be tried. The service is great. Waiters are friendly and helpful. The owner always makes a point of greeting and having a quick chat.

    Food and services are top quality. But, ventilation inside the restaurant wasn't good. All clothes and bags stay with kitchen odours after dining in the hall.

    I’m from Malaysia, and it was my first time at Ricardo. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm and friendly service. I tried shrimp tacos and beef nachos, and they were so good. I would say that it was the best Mexican food I’ve ever tasted! Their shrimp tacos are top tier. People who are fond of shrimp would definitely love it. All the products were fresh, and the dishes had the warmth of homemade food. All in all, I enjoyed my time here. The dining atmosphere, food, and service quality are excellent. I would highly recommend it to everyone who loves Mexican food. I would definitely come here again next time!

    A nice chilled atmosphere. The food was surprisingly good. The chicken quesadillas were crunchy and tasty. The carnitas tacos were delicious if a little small. The beef tacos looked a little meagre in portions, but when it was all spread out there was a good amount of food. It's more of a beef chili con carne than taco beef. Quite tasty and a good enough portion for the price. We didn't order the burritos, but they looked a good size and quality. The red salsa that came with the quesadillas was really delicious.
