    ** DISRESPECTS the DISABLED** Five stars for food, zero for empathy! We've been patrons of Rick's Chophouse for over 7 years. The ambiance is stunning. The food is always phenomenal. Whether it's dinner or that glorious Sunday brunch, we can taste the hard work their talented chefs and staff put in every bite. It's the kind of place that makes you feel fancy the moment you walk through the door. But this last visit .. we will not go back. I specifically noted on our reservation that we had a disabled guest and we needed accessible seating. You'd think that would be straightforward, right? Instead, we were escorted past the main dining room, through the bar, and deep into what I can only describe as the "banished-to-the-hotel" section obviously an overflow area. Not so great for our situation. Walk-ins without a reservation were seated closer than us lol It was way too far for our guest to enjoy the buffet. And really, arguing with staff during what should've been a relaxing celebration was not our idea of a peaceful Sunday. The accommodation shouldn't have been overlooked! To make matters worse, we were there for my 60th birthday AND our only Thanksgiving time with our kids. The complimentary birthday dessert was a giant plate with "Happy Birthday" scribbled in chocolate and a scoop of ice cream that tasted like Play-Doh. I wish I were exaggerating. I skipped eating dessert from the buffet because I believed it would be as special as it has been in the past. So disappointed! We've celebrated so many special occasions here and they've always delivered beautifully plated desserts before. Rick's, we'll always love your food but this last visit was embarrassing and a disappointment.

    Celebrated a birthday here. I decided to try them out because the reviews seemed to be decent although not as high as I would have liked. I was expecting an upscale experience. The location is nice and since it was around the holidays the location was decorated and comfy. The service was good. The food was subpar and did not really meet the expectation. Considering the price the food should be a bit more generous on the plate. The portions were out of proportion of the price. The New York strip was ok but was not cooked medium it was undercooked. It needed to be cooked a little more because it was not cooked properly. I did mention it and they attempted to fix it. At this point it was overcooked and when I took the rest home to rewarm it was not enjoyable. The shaved bacon brussel sprout portion should have been more than 3 to 4 tablespoons. The baked potatoe was good. The two shrimp that come with the steak was the best part, perfectly cooked, plump, and fresh. This is the reason I gave it 3 stars. I have had some really good steak dinners and this one just did not quite meet the expectation of experience.

    Filet with crab and shrimp

    Rick's has upscale steakhouse prices without the same quality and experience. We came for an early dinner to sit on the patio. Nice location on the Square. Server was nice and attentive. Salads were good. I ordered filet with crabmeat. Crabmeat was not jumbo lump which is what other steakhouses serve for the same price. My husband ordered his filet medium, same as me. However, his was beyond well done. We let them know before eating it and they just offered a free dessert. The free dessert (Key Lime pie) was the best part of the meal. I would not come back for dinner with so many other great upscale restaurants in the area. But I may give their lunch menu a try and people watch on the patio.

    Talk about an expensive but wonderful night out! The food was absolutely delicious and our steaks were cooked perfectly. The only critique I have on the steak is there wasn't a whole lot of flavor. I thought a place like this would salt crust their steaks to bring out the flavor but that was not the case. One star off for the flavor of the steak since this is what they are known for. I can make it better at home. Oh well. Literally everything else we ate (and it was a lot) was spot on perfect. Our server was attentive and amazing. The ambiance was romantic and cozy. I would love to come back here for a date night with the hubby. Four items that stood out that I recommend you try... the creamed spinach, calamari, lobster tail (massive and DO delicious) and the lobster bisque.

    We had another anniversary dinner at Rick's. Tradition, because the food is incredible, the wine list extensive, the atmosphere is special, and the service is top notch.

    It's fine Texan restaurant with good variety of cuisines. Stake house, fine bbq place. Food is fresh and delicious. Not regular Texas portion though . A bit pricy but makes up the quality and atmosphere. It's a quiet, dimmed light formal ambience inside for maybe romantic date night. Indoor and outdoor seating. Better to secure a table by reservation. Service was responsive and quick. Accessible with flat entry and wide routes. Not good for kids for sure. Good for couples, date nights, small groups and gathering.

    We came here to celebrate my wife's birthday, and it was a great choice! The restaurant had a very romantic feel, even though it was busy. Everyone was super friendly and made us feel welcome. Our waiter recommended some dishes, and we ordered the Elk and the Buffalo Tenderloin. The Elk was amazing--1000/10! It came with mushrooms and was unlike anything I've ever had. I'd come back just for that. The Buffalo Tenderloin was also good, but not as special. They even gave my wife a complimentary dessert for her birthday, which was really nice. Overall, a great night with great food and service. We'll definitely be back!

    Great flavor and portion size. Rick's is always a great place to visit. The bar area is great for lunch or brunch, very comfortable and the service is always great. Same goes for dinner but you'll need a reservation. Excellent dinner menu that is not overpriced. Highly recommend Rick's!

    Porterhouse for two and sea bass
    Haley D.

    This restaurant is near and dear to our hearts as we had our rehearsal dinner here. Now it's an annual staple for either an anniversary, Valentine's, or New Year's Eve dinner. Their steaks are phenomenal of course being a chophouse. I typically get the filet while my husband gets the porterhouse for two with the bone marrow butter. Now I always order their sea bass though! Ricks is always consistent and great quality!

    Rick's chophouse is kind of like a trap house in that I understand how people could become addicted to it. The elk was exceptional. The buffalo was tremendous. The only thing better was the people. The hospitality at Rick's is unmatched.

    Elk and ribeye
    Ben A.

    May be an unpopular opinion but the food was reasonably priced for the quality of it. When my business partner and I got the bill we were shocked that it wasn't doubled the price! Fantastic food. The escargot, the oysters, the Elk, the ribeye, the sides, and the deserts were out of this world! The service was also fantastic. Wonderful and attentive staff. Great ambiance and atmosphere. What a hidden gem in McKinney Texas. Try something new and different! You won't regret it here.

    Filet  Garlic mashed potatoes  New York strip  Mac and cheese

    First of all, the service was amazing! Michael was incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. We loved talking with him he had so much insight to share and truly made our experience memorable. We ordered the New York Strip, dry-aged for 45 days, and it was absolutely delicious. The portion size was great, and the flavor was incredible. We also tried the filet, which was equally amazing and packed with flavor. We weren't huge fans of the mac and cheese. It wasn't bad, but it didn't stand out and lacked the flavor we were hoping for. The mashed potatoes, however, were very good. For drinks, we ordered three cocktails: the Citrus Serenade, the Auburn Ember Martini, and the Crimson Kiwi Mule. The Citrus Serenade was phenomenal perfect for citrus lovers. The Auburn Ember had a strong alcohol presence but the pumpkin butter in the aftertaste was amazing. The mule was also very good, and you can definitely taste the banana liqueur. Overall, we had a great experience and can't wait to come back and try more of the menu!

    Happy Birthday Honey!

The game is playing in the back and we are near the rectangular bar area. Our server, Brian will be the reason I visit again and request to be served at his table. He made helpful suggestions was genuine and hilarious. The portions are HUGE. The salad I ordered had banana peppers, tomatoes, onions and bacon bites. I added pecans and ranch dressing. I couldn't stop. For entree, my dinner guest and I devoured the succulent ribeye and this scalloped potato looking side with gravy and onions. Bob's just feels down home, they haven't gotten away from their roots down home. Carrots, pickles are part of that association that people talk about. The carrot cake was a site to see. Towering from tables away, I had to lay it on the side to cut into it and just admired the layers. The walnut crunch, creme cheese icing was amazing with the moist cake. We all have had carrot cake that has been dry. Not this! This dinner was to celebrate a belated bday and that I did. I ran into a colleague and sent her a drink. You want a cigar? They have a lounge. Consider Bob's for all those functions or 1:1 with a friend at the bar to watch the game. The decor gives a formal dinning feel but the energy and food make it feel like you'rere joining a good party! Thank you to the managment for making sure our food met our expectations. Those check-ins and obvious training of serving staff was appreciated!

Everything else we ordered, from appetizer to sides to dessert, was equally well prepared (and presented). To be fair, it was not inexpensive, but we have spent similar amounts (or more), at "highly recommended" places, and felt rushed, and had steaks that were of a much lower quality.
