I cannot recall if I have reviewed Ricks before, but this is probably the first time we have gone on a warm Spring Thursday evening and it did not disappoint. Generally, I get some form of beef, and my wife follows suit. This time, I had the Sea Bass and she, the filet mignon. The beef is ALWAYS good, and... More

Amazing steak, beautiful setting and top-notch service. It was our first visit and we were treated like faithful regulars by the wait staff and GM Robert. Rich, dark wood interior provides the perfect setting for very well executed dining. We will be back.

Rick's has wonderful steaks and an overall very nice dining experience. The staff is exceptionally friendly and professional and the food is excellent. There is some seating outside for people-watching on the square, or very cozy seating inside as well.

Rick's is a beautiful restaurant with lovely staff. Everyone there is so inviting and accommodating. The food isn't exactly my forte, but it is very well-prepared and enjoyable. The atmosphere is very relaxing and exceptional. It is a very wonderful place to have on McKinney's square and I enjoy going there for dates with my significant other. Thank you for... More

My wife and I, along with friends and family, have been here multiple times. I generally order the carpetbagger, or filet mignon. The appetizers are also very good, and I personally have never had a bad meal here. If you don't want to eat in the main restaurant, you can head to the back to the lounge, where they have... More

I've been going to Ricks for a while now, and find the food quality and service exceptional. The steaks and sea bass my favorites. It tends to get busy weekend nights, but as with all great places, this is to be expected. One of the nice amenities is the Hotel...affordable and quaint. Add the downtown square of McKinney and you... More

We went here for Valentine's. There was a miserable cold draft that blew my skirt the whole evening and before my meal ever arrived I was wearing my wool coat and shivering. My meal was ice cold by my third bite. It was awful and managment refused to move us or turn on the heat. Would never go back!!

We went there for my birthday celebration and it was perfect. I had salmon and my husband had steak and both were outstanding! The service was very attentive and our meal was topped off with Rick sending us a free dessert, pecan pie with a scoop of ice cream. I love pecan pie and this was worth the calories!!

We have been to Ricks several times over the last few years. We have always felt that Ricks was good, but not great. On our last visit, it was almost great. The food was better than I recall from previosu visits. The service has always been superb. The atmosphere is excellent .... sort of a mini San Francisco or Chicago... More
