   Valentines dinner, wife ordered the Filet medium. Came rare, sent it back and it came back med rare. Decided to just have it comped and leave. They made it a third time and it STILL wasn’t cooked medium. Probably our last visit even though the manager was very accommodating.

   I love that they decorate for holidays and really make things like Valentine’s Day feel extra special. Plus excellent service and amazing food!

   We have dinned at Rick’s many many times and always enjoyed it. That being said tonight, Valentine’s Day 2025 was an awful experience. The service was great and the food good. However, management decided to open the banquet room up to accommodate more people and more $$$. The atmosphere was awful, think Golden Coral, and the noise level was unbearable. We are experienced dinners and typically enjoy the food and atmosphere at Rick’s. Atmosphere being an important element of a dinning experience. Being seated in the upstairs banquet room was not what we expected when making our reservations two weeks in advance. This is fine for large groups, not a couple wanting a nice dining experience. Too bad.

   It was Valentine’s Day so we expected crowds and noise. Our server was very busy but did an excellent job .

    As always, dinner was terrific. The service is always very good. My only complaint was the space we had to dine. A 4 person table is barely adequate for two. Granted, this was Valentine’s Day, but people were so packed in that there was no room to spare.
