Born in Colombia. Made in New York.
A family's journey from the mountains of Antioquia to the streets of Jackson Heights.
Rooted in Antioquia
Todo Rico started the way most great things do — around a kitchen table. Our family comes from the Antioquia region of Colombia, where food isn't just sustenance, it's identity. Every Sunday, the whole family would gather for a Bandeja Paisa that took all morning to prepare. Those meals are the foundation of everything we do.
When we arrived in New York, we brought those recipes with us. Not written down — they lived in our hands, in the smell of hogao on the stove, in the sound of arepas hitting a hot griddle. We couldn't find food that tasted like home, so we decided to make it ourselves.
Cooking with the same love as always.
Todo Rico opened in Jackson Heights because this neighborhood felt like Colombia. The energy, the community, the pride — it reminded us of home. Our mission has never changed: cook honest food, use real ingredients, and make every guest feel like family.
Family First
Every recipe comes from our family. We cook the way our grandmothers taught us — with patience, love, and no shortcuts.
Authentically Colombian
We don't adapt our food to fit a trend. We serve the real thing — the flavors, textures, and traditions of Colombia.
Community Roots
Jackson Heights is our home. We're proud to be part of this neighborhood and to share our culture with everyone who walks through our door.
