K Rico in New York City is owned by Tommy Greco and Christian Tanno.

Tommy & Chris met each other on their very first day of kindergarten at East Brook Elementary School. During extensive travels throughout Latin America, they became enamored with the diverse cuisines, cultures and flavors from many lands, and wanted to offer an authentic experience based on these culinary and culture adventures.
Serving USDA Prime Cuts in a contemporary ambiance, K Rico also vaunts an outdoor patio with al fresco dining. A full service bar extends through the venue. A semi-private dining area affords intimacy. Seafood from Chile is hand selected, delivered, and served daily. Memorable service has rendered it a top-rated Steakhouse, well-illustrated in the reviews it continues to garner.

Located in Hell’s Kitchen, it is minutes from Times Square/Broadway Theaters. And that the kitchen stays open till 12am is a plus.

Went and had their Wednesday steak special—NY strip and side dish for $45. Per person. (Saves about$19. Per dish. ). NY Strip cooked nicely, but had a lot of fat and gristle. Had broccoli and cauliflower sauté which tasted good but it was COLD. Papa frites were good but nothing extraordinary. needed salt. Service was very good. For such a highly rated place…it was average at best. If went again, would pay the extra amount and get the filet mignon and then order sides a la carte

The atmosphere was great as was the Wednesday NY strip steak. But more than that was our waiter. We didn’t catch his name but he is from Ghana via Italy. He was extremely attentive to our wishes to have a very leisurely meal. He is a truly professional waiter and gentleman. Our thanks to him and the entire staff for a wonderful evening meal.

A hidden gem! My partner and I wanted steak for our last night in NY (& it was also my birthday). We were immediately greeted with a warm welcome and were well attended to throughout the night. We were shown the cuts of meat being prepared and explained the difference of each one. I ordered the NY strip while my partner had the ribeye— we’re pretty sure it was the BEST STEAK we’ve had in our entire lives. They were both cooked to perfection (medium rare for us) and came with unique sauces on the side. Before our entrees, we had delicious roasted oysters. For dessert, we had tres leches cake (so yummy and moist). The staff was so kind to sing me happy birthday and include a sparkling candle! We’ll definitely be back when we return. 10/10!

Lovely from start to finish. The meals are large, so we split everything, including the steak which was a 20 oz ribeye cooked to perfection. The staff is friendly and service is excellent. The creme brûlée is a wonderful completion for dinner.

I treated my 21 year old granddaughter to a show & dinner. We had a fabulous time at K. Rico. So warm & friendly and the food was delicious. Not your run of the mill steak place. Of course, we did get steak but had appetizers & fish as well. Cocktails were superb.

We came here strictly on the reviews of Open Table and we definitely we not let down! The empanadas we’re off the rails, octopus appetizer was so delicious I thought I was eating bacon! (Sorry Vegans) Tres Leches cake was the best I’ve ever had and the service and atmosphere absolutely above 10 stars! Next time we come to the City, we’ll definitely be back and make K Rico a staple of our stays here!

This place was a total gem. My kid wanted steak during a quick visit to NYC, and we got a last minute table easily here, While not a family restaurant, they were very accommodating and welcoming. By far the best skirt steak I’d ever eaten, my son’s filet was fabulous, and cut like butter. My daughter said her empanadas were the best she had ever had. My salad was delicious. A small complimentary limoncello at the end of the meal, and after I paid the bill, the staff insisted on bringing a square of tres leche cake before we left. When we make it back for our next trip we would return in a heartbeat!!
