This place is fantastic! The only thing better than the food is the service. The owner and his wife greeted us as we came in and were around several times during our stay. They are obviously very proud of their restaurant and they should be. Loved the place. Outstanding, delicious food! Do yourself a favor and give this place a try.

Delicious! The chimichurri sauce was SO GOOD. The medium spice creamy green sauce was also very tasty with a nice kick. Great place to stop for lunch.

We’ve only tried MMM Que Rico delivered through food delivery apps and we definitely plan to dine in soon. Our favorite menu item so far has been the beef burrito and we’ll even go as far as to say that their burritos better than Chipotle burritos! The tortillas are delicious, the ingredients taste fresh, and every burrito has tasted the same which means they keep good consistency.

We can't make up our mind if we love the chicken or beef taco salad best so we get both and split it. That way we get both. Best I've ever eaten

The Peruvian chicken was tasty, fried plantains slightly sweet and just caramelized. We were not familiar with the salsa and ordered it hot. Hot is HOT - but very good, came back for more. Ambiance more of a fast food than a sit down joint, but the staff is very attentive. We will take advantage of their takeout menu the next time the fam is in town.

Waited roughly 30 minutes in the restaurant for the food and the order was wrong. I’m giving it 4 stars because I’ve had positive experiences in the past, the chicken is great, and the owner is kind; however, I was somewhat disappointed this time around.

Our daughter and her family have eaten here several times over the last few months and have told us how good the food is. We tried it today and the food was delicious. Can’t wait to go back.

I’ve been wanting to try this place for a while, so glad we did today - the food did not disappoint! Everything was delish and the staff (possibly owners) were very friendly. Can’t wait to come back!

The food is delicious!! We had a party of 9 and got a variety of dishes: Peruvian Chicken, Empanadas, Plantains, Breaded Beef, and Quesadillas. Everything was so good that we want to go back again tomorrow! Great service, too! If you're ever in Calabash, NC be sure to visit this wonderful restaurant.

One of our favorite restaurants to eat at when we go to the beach. Love their tacos and rotisserie chicken. Their yuca and plantains are awesome as well. My wife always gets their empanadas and she loves them. Glad we did a quick little day trip grab some dinner. Thanks for awesome food!!!

This is our family’s go-to place to eat! We have tried nearly everything on the menu and all of it has been wonderful. Very authentic. Tamales are delish, tacos are fantastic, Peruvian chicken cannot be beat! Empanadas are unparalleled! Flan can’t be missed!

First of all the empanadas are amazing! The food tastes really good, very well seasoned. The plates were well proportioned however the tacos were very sad and the fries for the price were very slim as well. There is room for improvement but overall great food & service. Maybe we’ll come back for some empanadas.

To start I wish Google had decimals. I give Que Rico 3.8. Service is great.. Tacos are wonderful and hot sauces are fresh and tasty. Empanadas where delicious and the pastry was light and fluffy. I did not taste the cheese ones because they are not my cup of tea. Chicken was moist and had great flavor. The slaw was crisp and fresh 👌. Here are the negatives. The rice and black beans lacked seasoning. Some fresh herbs and a little salt and pepper would go a long way. Last but not least the Flan. It had excellent flavor however it was over cooked. Flan should have a smooth texture for those that
