K. Rico was created by Tommy Greco and Christian Tanno, close friends who met on their first day of Kindergarten many years ago. Having traveled extensively throughout different parts of Latin America, they became enamored with the diverse cuisines, cultures and flavors of many lands, and wanted to offer an authentic experience based on these culinary and cultural adventures.
At K. Rico, the butchering and Dry-Aging of the steaks is done in-house, and our cuts are displayed right there at the table before guests place their orders, resulting in a very unique and memorable New York City dining experience.
