    Visiting from Calgary, Alberta this was our first time at Rita’s and our evening was absolutely magical. The service was amazing, food was outstanding and the live musician was incredible. We will definitely have this on our “must to go” list for future visits.

    Food was absolutely disgusting. Had we not been there for a celebration for a friend I would have sent every item back. The shrimp enchiladas were almost inedible. My sister had the steak and says it tasted like a steak you’d get at Denny’s. Waitress was also very inattentive and took like 40 minutes to get our food. Overall one of the worst dining experiences as of late. Also…way overpriced. Gross food, terrible service = bad restaurant.
