I got the Super Greens with my normal order, my only complaint would be More Kale less broccoli. Got the Broccoli Beef this time around and it tasted fantastic as always, very juicy very delicious!"
"Plate had enough food but the broccoli for the beef and broccoli was old and didn't look very appetizing. The Chicken Egg Roll was fried too long and burnt. Rest of the food was fine. "

"I would give 6 stars if I could! Absolutely stellar 3-cheese Tortellini, extra requests were also executed perfectly."
"Wanted to give this higher. Food was fresh and tasty. 3 issues. I paid 5.50 extra for steak and got maybe 2oz. That's like 34.00 per pound steak. Need more for 5.50. Also got 2 tiny cups of spicy yogurt dressing. Each cup was half full. You and I both know you can fill those up. Finally, the olives. The olives were saltier than this review. You must have stored them in actual salt. Way beyond normal."

"The Veggie Spring Rolls and the Spicy Crispy Chicken Wontons were delicious! Hot, fresh, and the wontons were flavorful. The Mongolian Beef Dinner/w rice (I got noodles instead) was pretty bad. It doesn't look like the photo and the beef is chewy and the flavor of the sauce is bad. I don't want to take another bit to describe it better. The noodles were also pretty gross; kind of tasted like an old pan.
If the entree was around $17/18 I don't think it would warrant a review, but for the $30ish I paid, I am pretty bummed how bad it is."

I recommend 3-4 tacos because they pretty much fill you up good. The Burrito was also a decent size! Food was fresh, too."
"Food was hot and fresh. The quesadilla was smaller than usual, but it's also cheaper as well so the price to portion ratio was very fair. The burrito was delicious and packed with flavor. They weren't stingy on the meat either. Way better price/flavor/portion wise than Chipotle, and I'll definitely be ordering from Rico's again."

"Amazing and if you go in person the cashier I always get is the sweetest. The serving sizes are unbelievable and even the smaller entrees last three days. Flavor unreal, try the teriyaki skewers and try the lo mein, they are my faves so far. Oh and the sesame chicken is kinda spicy, so if you're into that it's a nice medium of spice and flavor."
"I was not feeling life and needed a real pick me up in the form of Chinese delivery! 888 can always be counted on to provide amazing fresh food from the north side of Ames to Huxley. I ordered the C4. Lo Mein with Chicken fried rice and added veggies, just an itsy bitsy spice (figured that if I wanted more spice I would add some garlic chili crunch). No need to add anything to this delightful dish... true chefs kiss! My husband ordered the C3. 🌶️Orange Chicken Medium spice level... I tried it and while I wouldn't be able to stomach that spice intensity for my whole meal I did enjoy it for the bite that I took! We will most definitely be ordering again in the future."
