The owner's statement is complete and total nonsense. Their website reads... "We're not currently taking orders but will re-open again shortly". What exactly is your idea of shortly? It has been over 1 year (probably closer to 2). The statement says how "Today, Rico's Pizza has grown tremendously and will continue to expand to multiple locations in the near future." Rico's used to be multiple locations under the original ownership, then it went to the single original location which has continued to shrink over the years. It went from a large, beautiful Italian restaurant with frescos on the wall and full service to whitewashing all of the walls with cheap furniture (kind of a knock off sports bar) to removing all of the restaurant except for a very small area in the front, to being closed for years. How is that growing and/or improving? This was once a fixture in Burbank and now it is just depressing to drive by and see it in its current state. Open and restore the restaurant or sell it and be done with it. The number one type of restaurant that has excelled in the pandemic is pizza restaurants, and yet they are closed. What does that say? For this place to be closed this long and not for lease/sale with all of the windows covered in paper makes you wonder what activities this location is now being used for. Something has to be paying the rent - and it's not pizza! This proves that anyone can claim anything on the internet - regardless of how false the statements are.

Scam This business is closed. My card was charged for my order set for pickup. I arrived at the address and Rico's Pizza was closed down for business. The owners of Ricos is raffi's Market which is next door they claim that they have been closed for a year but They are still collecting $$??? Watch out they are also on google, grubhub phishing scam.

Would love to review the food, unfortunately, every time I have placed an order it is canceled without notice.

Such a great place for a pizza. Everyone is so lovely to interact with and the pizzas and sandwiches are yummy! I definitely recommend getting your takeout here.

The original Rico's Pizza was an amazing place. It had great food and it was a very nice location when the original family still owned it (the only problem was the lack of parking). Then sadly, they retired and sold it many years ago (at least 20-30). The place tanked - the food had no taste and the restaurant (which featured nice booths and beautiful murals throughout the location), was now painted stark white and the booths were replaced with cheap tables and chairs. I am not sure if it sold again, or if the same owners tried to think of a way to make things look worse, but now the restaurant has been removed and only a small space in front (like you would find at a Dominos) remains. In a time when everyone is ordering to go or having their food delivered, you would think they would promote their business. Instead, they are completely closed. Here's hoping they stay that way. A sad ending to what was a wonderful neighborhood institution of the 70's and 80's.
The menu and service were ahead of my expectations. We really enjoyed the atmosphere of this spot. Amazing spot to take my family out for lunch.

Rico's has amazing pizza. I'm only giving it 2 stars because they're hour and menu are unpredictable. It was this way before the pandemic and it's even worse now. I can never get through to them to place an order. Often times, what I want is unavailable. The food is 5 star. The service needs a LOT of work.

Rico's is the best pizza place I've come across so far. Their ajarski is the best. Their pizzas are the best. No other pizza place is as good. They are a little pricey but I think it's worth it.

This place has good food but very poor customer service. Call on a Friday night. The phone will ring and ring. No one picks up. You ddrive over and see staff cooking.inside. Door locked. They just look at you. Must be rich already and do not need the business or something. This happend to us 3 times in the last 6 months.

I order pizza a lot from these guys -- either pick up or delivery. Never disappointed! I love their Margarita, always tastes great.
