Excellent appetizers and seafood! The new makeover on the inside of the restaurant is great but my favorite time to go to Ricks is in spring/summer when the boats are out and you can watch the sunset over the water.

First time guests and will definitely be returning. We had an awesome experience! My husband and I came here for our anniversary dinner. Food and drink came a little slowly but otherwise we had a great time and our server was great. She was very sweet and personable and made us feel very welcomed. The food was fantastic. I finished my plate and that never happens for me! The drinks were also great. The value for your buck is definitely worth it.
