Lake Lanier Area Dining In Buford At Rico's World Kitchen!

The rains didn't stop us from enjoying a fantastic evening last night in Historic Downtown Buford near Lake Lanier.  We ventured across Buford Dam into Gwinnett County and headed to Rico's World Kitchen for dinner!  Well, the rave reviews were true, as Rico's World Kitchen did not disappoint.  While Historic Downtown Buford did not seem overly crowded, Rico's was packed.  Many of the diners were enjoying meals on the outdoor patio, until the rains came and everyone had to move inside.  This restaurant is really unique!  Think hot new dining spot in a restored old-time gas station or corner store!  If you've ever dined at Pure Taqueria in Alpharetta, the concept is the same.

The menu at Rico's is diverse and the beer and wine selection is as well.  Both are top notch!  We enjoyed samplings of steak, shrimp, crab cakes, and fried green tomato salad.  Of course, I can't forget the coconut cake for dessert!  In keeping with the theme, the beers and wine are "worldly" as well.  Really nice offerings from Europe, Asia, South America and of course the U.S.  Rico's is high-end food in an eclectic, casual atmosphere at a very reasonable price.  They post their dinner specials on their Facebook Page.  A great idea that is clearly approved of by their Facebook followers!  I mention this because their website menu appears to show mainly lunch fare.  We'll be returning to Rico's soon, and we'll get photos before the rains come.  But for now, be sure to visit Rico's World Kitchen in Historic Downtown Buford for an excellent evening dinner!
