    The quality of food in this restaurant is a step above other restaurants. The steaks are so tender you can cut them with a butter knife. Have eaten here twice and it’s been great both times. Will definitely be back

    What started out as a birthday dinner to celebrate my wonderful boyfriend turned out to be a life changing dinner with my fiancé! Our server was fantastic from the get-go and even accommodating this expectant momma with a mock-tail from the bar tender, to the incredible meal we had appetizer to dessert. A wonderful night with food, service and atmosphere. We loved our time at Rick’s.

    I don’t normally like to be negative but with a $133 bill I would have expected A LOT better food! Texas burger had zero seasoning and flavor, wolf brand chili is way better than the house made and the homemade chips also had zero seasoning and were room temp so no added seasoning would stick! Grilled shrimp taco also had no seasoning and the only flavor was the sauce! Better tacos at Taco Bell! The Mexican rice that came with the taco was room temp and woefully undercooked!! The filet mignon was ok but not worth the price! Best thing we ordered was the Rick’s Wings tossed with bbq sauce. Disappointed for an anniversary dinner! Our waitress was Chloe and she was awesome and had no control of the food so she was taken care of!! That is all!!😵‍💫

    Great experience at Rick’s. I had the Texas Bites appetizer, the Ribeye, the okra, and the Potatoes Gratin (servers suggestion). Everything was excellent including the service. Finished the night with the sounds of Private Orchid in the music area.

    Amazing fresh local food and drinks that can't be missed in downtown Tyler! We enjoyed grilled plump shrimp as an appetizer and grilled redfish and carmelized sea bass topped with lump crab for our entrees. The seafood is flown in 3 times a week, fresh not frozen. For sides, I had fresh green beans and purple hulled peas which tasted like the best Sunday dinner at grandmas in the county and my husband had potato au gratin and grilled squash, zucchini, peppers and mushrooms. I drank the Bluebonnet which was fresh, light and just the right sweetness and my husband enjoyed their famous Old Fashioned. Highly recommend! Can dress up or down and apparently great live music late on weekends but we weren't able to stay in town to enjoy. Do yourself a favor and check them out!

    Tried a new “to us” spot. We had a lovely dinner at Rick’s on he Square. Greeted by nice young lady, we asked to be seated near the windows, so we could “people watch”. We order the Mezzi Platter appetizer; OMG, I love Mediterranean food!! It was amazing! Spouse ordered salad, I ordered the grilled pork chop. Chop was cooked perfectly and vegetables (potatoes w/ cream sauce) and greens were great!! Service was fantastic, informative, personable, & prompt! Terrific time and we will be back to listen to the live music! Thank you for a great date night. 👍
