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.

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.

One of the best meals I have had. I have been to other highly rated steak houses in the city but this was by far the best. Empenadas were fantastic especially with the guacamole and the steaks were perfect. Nice sides too and the tres leches cake was amazing. Will be coming back for sure!

We visited for a much needed steak during our stay from the UK. We was not disappointed. What an amazing place. I cannot put into words how much we enjoyed the steak, the most slender and tasty meat I have tasted in a long time. Staff were fab. Will return here again and recommend this place to everyone 👌

The food was ok, we had steak, but certainly not anywhere near good enough to justify the price. I appreciate that NYC is a very expensive city now, but this meal did seem overpriced in comparison to others. The TV’s playing sports were a little distracting too, not something I’d expected. The service was ok, but could definitely be better considering the service charge.

The steak is fantastic, possibly the best I've had. We had the 45oz porterhouse (shared between 2) and it was delicious and cooked to perfection. Felt very well looked after from the moment we arrived. The servers came over and introduced us to the individual cuts of meat available so we knew exactly what we were getting. They also provided candles and sang Happy Birthday to my girlfriend as dessert was served. Overall a great experience. It wasn't cheap but I guess that's the price you pay for quality. And as a one-off treat I didn't mind paying.
