    We have dined at Rick's a number of times and have always enjoyed ourselves. Nick, our server was great. The food was very good, but the execution was quite poor. My husband's steak was very overcooked (if it was a little overdone, that would have been fine), and Nick did have another steak prepared. But this means we essentially eat dinner at different times; I didn't want to let my food get cold, and I also did not want my rare steak sitting under a heat lamp while my husband's new steak was prepared. I also found it in poor taste that they sent out the new steak on my husband's original plate. The sides were now cold. I wouldn't mind if we were at Applebee's, but I was under the impression Rick's prides itself on being fine(r) dining. I also want to warn other diners about the bugs. This particular evening was very comfortable, so we opted to dine outside. There were a lot of bugs flying around. Landing all over our food and us. Not a pleasant experience. We will certainly be back but Rick's really missed on this one.

    You know, I have been on Open Table for years. I told myself I would stay away from reviewing places unless I was truly upset by something or blown away in some way. I’m delighted to say it was the latter in this case. I have always heard good things about Rick’s, and - from start to finish - everything was perfect. I believe our server may have been Katie? She was wonderful and welcoming and just the right amount of contact. Never did we have an empty glass but we also didn’t feel compelled to chat… Cocktails were creative and beautiful and delicious. Every bite of the beautifully simple steak sandwich - made with filet and a sweet jalapeño relish (ordered by my spouse) - was clearly delectable. Hard to believe I am writing a review of a steak sandwich!? My grilled scallop tostada small plate was a “risk” because the last time I ordered scallops- years ago at this point - they were unfortunately bad. If this has ever happened to you, you understand…. ! That experience will keep even the most committed scallop-lover deterred for the foreseeable future. Anyhow, the balance of greens with vinaigrette, roasted corn, black beans, delicious guacamole, fresh crispy tostada chips, and a spicy pico of some kind with a light lime crema - if I’m not mistaken - provided the perfect stage for the grilled scallops which welcomed me back to scallops with open arms. ❤️ To boot, it was gluten free! DIning on the patio for lunch on a beautiful day with the ability to peruse around the shops after our lunch was the perfect “day date.” We had considered Niagara on the Lake, but our limited time rendered that impossible. If you are looking for a romantic Lunch date that feels a little like a quaint vacation, I couldn’t say more positive about Rick’s. We cannot wait to go back for dinner! Thank you for the total experience from a couple who rarely gets out !

    Rick’s is our go-to for special occasions; Saturday did not disappoint. My husband and I both had the fillet mignon. Outstanding, melt-in-your-mouth steak!! The grilled asparagus and roasted red potatoes rounded out a perfect meal. Two things that were new, and I hope are soon made old, were the rolls and music. This is a beautiful fine dining establishment. Please keep it that way!!
