The original Lechon has been roasted in goodness. The spicy Lechon is super dry. While the Pinakbet lack a little bit of saltiness, it is good. Baked scallop is a little too oily but delicious. I would also order the ensaladang talong again because it is healthy.
Tried the spicy lechon in their Pasig Branch.It was good however the skin isnt that crispy anymore.Will come back if craving lechon to try the other dishes

I'm not sure if it's a good idea to end the night with letchon. Lol! 🐷
FOOD: Crispy yung balat. And their house vinegar complements with the letchon. Super sarap ng suka nila. Now its my go-to place whenever I'm craving for Letchon. Especially the spicy one. Super yummy!
SERVICE: Masungit yung gurl na staff. Hindi marunong ngumiti.
PLACE: It was huge and sooo cold. The location is near our place, just one tumbling away. Also, the room where they do the chopping is very clean. 👌
PRICE: Not so mahal.

Millenials and people on the adult side is on the Samgyupsal bandwagon including me. Unlimited meat with delicious sides and cooking it for yourself is really a trend and very enjoyable. While this is all happening nowadays, Rico's Lechon which is famous in Cebu sneaked pass our radars and now here in the Metro and suddenly is eating its share in the market trend. Traditional families will tend to choose Lechon houses over korean meat places. With the power of social media, even millenials are food hunting and bragging about Rico's, many are even promoting it. My Rico's planned visit is long overdue but that changed when my boss invited us for a lunch meeting here in Tiendesitas. I badly wanted to try their Spicy Lechon and luckily by boss ordered it along with Bulalo, Chop Suey, Grilled Tuna, Bam-I Pancit and 2 platters of Rice and both my taste buds and tummy were happy and satisfied.
SPICY LECHON: I expected a lot from this because is their flagship product. I turned out that it is more than what I expected, the house blend vinegar is the X-Factor here.
BULALO: The best out of the 4 dishes we ordered. It is at par with the top tier Bulalos in the Metro.
CHOP SUEY: It's ok, no stand-out factor and is very expensive for the small serving.
BAM-I: A halo-halo pancit, it's like the Super Supreme of Noodles. It's goof but does not exceed the special pancit you can order for delivery in pancit specialty stores. It's still worth the try.
Service: the service is outstanding, the crew are knowledgeable with the menu and even the history and current standing of the restaurant. They are also good in suggesting and selling their menus while we were choosing and of course not in a rude, interrupting way.
Ambiance: very Filipino, I liked the lighting. My recent Filipino themed restaurants I visited has poor lighting which is really their default.
Very spacious area. Good for small to big groups. Ambience nice. Not too crowded. I came early lunch so only few customers. Staffs very friendly & polite taking & serving your orders. I tried their famous Lechon of course. I must say, so crispy and meat so tender. It’s just too salty for me. So matakaw xa sa vinegar. Yummy din yun vinegar. You can purchase a bottle of it if u want. A little pricey for a pinoy food. Kamote Balls ok for me, but maybe they fried it to an over used cooking oil. You can taste it on the very first bite. I told it to the staff about it & she said she will inform whoever cooked it. Hopefully. So POP pa rin.
My kids and I enjoy this place. It's clean and things are in order plus the staffs are friendly. They have function rooms for your small gathering too.
This is the first time I tried Rico's Lechon and it did not disappoint! I'm one of the few Filipinos who weren't really into lechons, but Rico's spicy lechon changed my mind. :) Also enjoyed their kare-kare and sizzling tanigue.

Luckily we arrived early so there was parking near the venue. The restaurant was airy, and there were pictures of famous personalties on the wall. We ordered the plain and spicy variety. It was not a standout for me I don’t understand the hype. The meat was not as flavorful as the other cebu lechons i tried. Staff were friendly
