Steakhouse
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.

    Had a great experience at K Rico. Booked a table of 5 pre-theater. Showed up 15 minutes early and got seated immediately. Very attentive service by Benjamin, plus a visit from the owner to go over the details on all of the steak options!

    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!

    What fun! My new favorite steak restaurant and it is so much more: not only are the steaks fantastic and fairly-priced but the rest of the menu is no afterthought: there is real talent in the kitchen. Service is warm and friendly - generous even. Will definitely return.

    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!!

    What an incredible meal! We shared the baked oysters and the empanadas (both must haves! Every bite of each dish was better than the next! A true five star experience. The atmosphere, wine, dinner and desert was beyond delicious. You MUST get the tres leches as well! 🤤 (don’t sleep on the mashed cauliflower! It was one of my favorite things)

    K Rico is a wonderful steakhouse with a South American twist. The food is great, as is the service and atmosphere. Drinks were well made and delicious. From the moment you are greeted to the moment you leave, you will have a true dinning experience. This was our second visit and we will continue to frequent this establishment.
