RICO CHIMI Brooklyn

Fast and friendly staff, especially after a night out on the town. Food is very good

Great best food you can have

this place is an awsum spanish fast food joint! they grill it up rite before you! food is fresh, and well seasoned. they have two spots, both on atlantic ave, one near warwick street and the other near rockaway blvd. This spot, near warwick has loud spanish music play, a flat screen with videos playing and stools at the counter. helps to know spanish when ordering, friendly young dudes take your oder....but i think they get some english....lol

the menu: empanadas, sandwiches...cubano, chicken and steak, picao with steak, chicken or a mix (served with french fries or green plantains), platters of chicken or steak served with french fries or green plantains, all soughts of "fritura", fried meats such as chicken, beef, pork, langaniza and other meats,chimis, burritos, they even have burgers. My fave....Patacones....a sandwich not made with bread but held together with two giant tostones (fried plantains)! this comes in steak, chicken or pork....i get chicken, fried white cheese, lettus, tomatoes and chimi sauce.....so good!!!

prices are awsum. empandas are 2 bucks, but are big and well worth it. chicken and cheese is the best! Sandwiches are $6, food platters $10-$12, picao $9, Patacones $6
