Serious EatsMarch 6, 2014The batter blend is top-secret, but each taco is both golden and greaseless, served with crunchy raw cabbage, a chunky tomato and pepper salsa, and crema, with optional fresh salsa verde on the side.
Lucky PeachApril 1, 2016Ricky’s Ensenada-style fried catfish tacos are among the best in town. The fish is crisply coated in a light and magically greaseless jacket of batter; the fish within is remarkably tender. Read more
Katherine M.October 6, 2014Fish tacos, lightly battered and beautifully fried. The only minus is that they're a bit salty. Drizzle your tacos with white crema and chat with Ricky if he's around -- such a friendly guy.
Chris LJanuary 10, 2014"Two deep-fried, Baja-style fish and shrimp tacos, and a fresh agua fresca. This long-standing favorite still does fresh, fried-fish better than just about anyone from its free-standing Virgil truck."
Staff PicksFebruary 4, 2016Ricky's Fish Tacos has added dinner to their menu, so track down their food truck and head over for a delicious (and cheap) late night treat.
GQ MagazineJanuary 5, 2016The crispy, ultra-fresh Baja-style fish taco from Ricky’s is exactly what you see in your brain when you imagine the Platonic ideal of a fish taco.
Easily the best fish tacos in Los Angeles. As small as they look they are quite filling. Parking is always hard to find but ultimately it's worth it
JenniferApril 16, 2015You think you only need 2 tacos. You're wrong. You really want 4. Just order 4 to begin with.
Ricky MarMarch 6, 2014Just fish tacos and shrimp tacos. $3 each. Tacos are freshly fried and very good! Red salsa is pretty spicy.
Aaron NSeptember 14, 2013Cucumber water is phenomenal. Expected better salsa but overall I will def come back.
Last weeks at this location until he gets his truck. Congrats Rick
Dixon PaulineMarch 31, 2020Every menu item has interesting ingredients. I ordered off the breakfast menu and was not disappointed.
