Birthday Celebration
Great time as always. We celebrated my daughter’s adoption day with her favorite crab legs!
This spot is one of my favs. A romantic ambiance and great for a date night. The crab cakes are fabulous, I had the catfish as well and it's always perfection. You will not be disappointed
Server was a bit distant but the food was perfect
Our server was amazing. He was always on point and had such a fun but professional personality. Most impressed by how he took our table of six order by memory and got it completely correct.
Rick’s Boatyard has great food with a unique atmosphere. Makes for a perfect date night or a fun night out with friends.
Would highly recommend for any occasion.
Was sat on time, not pressured to order or leave after meal. Great experience as always.
Food and service was really amazing. The grilled salmon was the best..
Birthday. Great ambience and server
Excellent food, drinks and service. Looking forward to our next visit.
They had a great $65 for two appetizer, main course(s) and dessert(s) on Sunday. We celebrated a Birthday
Great experience.
Extremely slow service. Overpriced and poor quality food. The pandemic likely contributed to our poor experience. We may try again after the pandemic has run its course.
It was my 50th birthday. They sat us next to the windows which was very nice. The server was very attentive in the beginning but as the meal went on, I think she became a little busy as she wasn’t around as much. But overall, a very nice experience. Food was very good.
It was the best meal I have ever had there! I had the shrimp scampi. Everyone at our table loved their entrees and we had some picky eaters! The service was great as well. We dined upstairs and it was not noisy even with a full room of people.
New Year’s Eve!
Haven't been there for a while since on other side of town. But food was great all had a seafood dish. David our server was very friendly and did a great job.
First time eating there and the service was lovely!!!! Definitely coming back
We were doing an early New Year’s eve lunch with friends. We had very good service, the restaurant was quite quiet at that time of day. The food was very good, and our waitress kindly replaced a spilled beer. Overall, a very good experience.
Best food I've had in the last year at least. Service was absolutely perfect -- waiter went above and beyond.
The food and service was great!
The food was very good and the server, Steve, was very attentive. He helped make the meal.
Christmas Eve dinner with family
Upstairs....very loud! Food ok....never got a refill on my water! Bill was wrong so had to wait to get it changed!
We had a nice lunch. Waitress was very attentive. Everyone working there was very friendly. Loved the creole crab dip and the spicy bloody mary.
Food quality good. Service was below expected given the reputation and price.
Christmas Eve service dinner
The food was great, service attentive and the noise level low. Myself and my employees enjoyed the occasion of our annual Christmas luncheon.
Great place with wonderful views. Customer service is always great! Food was not the quality as it normally is on this past visit, but we will likely be back.
Good variety of food choices, salads, sandwiches, steaks, seafood and soup, across a decent price range. Their desserts are always yummy and shareable. Great outdoor seating available on the water.
Nicely festive. Solidly good food.
Our server Taylor was fantastic and the food was great as usual.
Room was extremely cold upstairs. People at next table all had winter coats on.
We love Ricks Boathouse. Go there for a great fish dinner. Great wine list.
Dinner was exceptional, as always. My only issue was the lack of any acoustic deadening in the upstairs dining room. This creates a situation where you are competing with other tables to be able to hear your dinner guest talk.
Other than that it’s a wonderful experience and we will be back!
Great food, great service and a great menu! Great place to take your family....
The service was outstanding and the food was very, very good. I would not hesitate to recommend Rick's to anyone. This was the third Thanksgiving in a row we been to Rick's.
Service was the slowest I've experienced there although they did not appear to be busy. Took forever for the server to come around and offer dessert, then another eternity to return to take our order after dropping off dessert menus.
Had a busser not pay attention to where he was going, rounded a corner, and almost knocked me over as I attempted to get seated.
A server knocked a tumbler off a shelf and almost hit my daughter.
Too many 'incidents' for a normally wonderful place.
Great place for a birthday celebration. Jeff M was an awesome server for our Sunday Brunch!!!
Food was good, service was wonderful Not many people dining which was a plus for us
All three of us thought our meal was super! Our waitress was superb. My friends were quite impressed with the ambience. Thanks.
