Great food, and service. Quick on the drinks and food. I’d go with the filet over ribeye, personal preference though!

We were in town for gymnastics competition and thought we give this place a try. So our group of 12 was very glad we chose Ricks because everyone enjoyed what they ordered. I didn’t hear any complaints, the waiter’s were amazing with bringing our food out making sure everybody ordered was correct. They went above and beyond to get anything we needed( specially pickle spears lol)

I dined here last night with my boyfriend. Heath was our server and he was amazing! He was very personable and constantly checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. We had the crawfish beignets for an appetizer and they were awesome. The bread pudding was delicious and the drinks as well!

We've been coming to Rick's for almost 4 years, and it is one of the best spots in town. I will say that we try to avoid going during the busy times. For food: We recommend the filet oscar, gumbo, ahi seared tuna, and grilled Texas bites. For drinks: bluebonnet, indian paintbrush, and pimm's cup if you like specialty cocktails, or they can make you whatever you want.

We recently hosted a rehearsal dinner at Rick’s, and it was absolutely perfect in every way! Rick went above and beyond to work with me on the planning and menu selection. His communication was excellent. On the day of, Heath, the manager, truly did a phenomenal job and worked his tail off and met my every request. All of the staff were so kind and attentive, the room was beautiful, and the food was excellent! We received so many compliments. Don’t hesitate to book Rick’s for your next event!

Great food, and our waitress made sure my drink was always full and that we didn't need anything else. The band kept our ladies singing, which is what we always want. Me on the other hand, prefer a little harder jams and not so much the wimpy radio favorites. But hey, the girls liked it so, "winning".

I love the onions rings. The nachos are fresh. Good quality cheese. The bread pudding is really delicious too! The catfish plate could feed 2 ppl. Great place for a date.
