This is authentic Nicaraguan food! The gallo pinto was a bit crispy just how I like it, and the cacao tasted just like back in Nicaragua. The chancho was juicy & delicious; it’s so hard to find a restaurant in the U.S. that prepares it correctly. Visiting from out of town and so grateful I stopped here.
Some of the food we really liked, the plantains and fried cheese were awesome. Parking is a little bit of a hassle but then who drives a car these days? Not in the best part of town but that is the new situation in many parts of San Francisco, unfortunately.
Love this place. Me and the wife decided to walk down mission st deciding what to eat and decided to go back to Riconcito Nica.
This time we got the house special, I call it, Fritanga.
There is so much food that is plenty for 2-3 people.
Plate is loaded with staek, pork, gallopinto, Maduro, queso Frito, and much more, and to top it off, pickled onions 😋.
Definitely a must try
Larger than it looks from out front, it might be a bit sparse in decoration, but the service is fast and friendly and the food is ample and tasty.
This was our first time here and we had the Filete a la Jalapeño and the Chancho Asado. There's a lot on the menu so we'll have to go back and try more.
The food is amazing, delicious, all the savory words! Really brought me back to grandma's cooking.
