Really enjoyed the meal we had here. Nice people and great food. We each got a steak (duh) and crab dip, bread and chips as well as calamari. My steak (Buffalo). Amazing! Other steaks were clearly very good. Highly recommend this place in the heart of downtown McKinney. read more

Consistently outperforms expectations! Beautiful place in a great building. Food and service is always good. They treat you right

We are here as part of the "romance package" with the hotel, and it was just so wonderful. Frankly, the food was... fine. The wine list was great. But the service was PHENOMENAL. I can't say enough about how pleasant, accommodating, and helpful they were. They went out of their way to make us feel special. We will definitely be back for another parents night out! read more

I want to give 3.5 but since that's not an option I'm rounding up. Descent steak for sure: The prime rib is gently smoked, not too Smokey, cooked nicely to medium rare, well marbled. Cowboy ribeye had a beautifully developed crust. Both very tender! Iceberg wedge had a nice balance of dressing:topping:lettuce ratio. Fantastic onion ring. Crab dip made me audibly "mm!" Baked potato dry. Horseradish cream too creamy. Service was neither good nor bad. Kind of slow. Dessert- shaky but key lime pie was the best of the three we tried (apple pie and creme brûlée) Espresso might have been either old and reheated or instant. Ambiance was typical low lit, dark wood, white linen style steak house- very comfortable. I'll go back to try other options. read more

This spot is serving some of the best food in town. My husband and I started off with the Wagyu beef skewers and Crab Cake as our appetizer. Let me just emphasize that we scraped the plates clean. Both of these menu items were the best I've ever had. Being born and raised in Louisiana, I had my doubts about the Crab cake. It did not disappoint, more than delicious and the crawfish bisque that it comes with was an absolute treat. Next we shared the Cowboy Ribeye, it came with two loaded potatoes and onion rings, we added 6 shrimp and a side of Mac and cheese. The steak was cooked to perfection and flavors were spot on. If I could, I would eat here several times a week!! Shout out to our server Mark, he was awesome! Very attentive, polite and genuinely nice! Heads up that a reservation is needed or recommended. We sat outside on the patio which is first come, first serve. Patio area and view was shaded and very nice atmosphere! Prices are reasonable. Definitely fell in love with this restaurant and can't wait to go back!! read more

.... had a wonderful dinner here with family. The steaks, the fish, the chicken was all delicious. Great sides as well. Lovely decor, and very attentive staff. No complaints about the drinks. A definite must if you are in McKinney. read more

Update to previous review: We were invited back to Rick's to give it another try and we are so glad we did. We did order the bone in ribeye and filet this time and they were both perfectly cooked. Both steaks were full of flavor as were the sides. The wedge salad was delicious and had the perfect amount of toppings in each bite. The experience this time won us over and we will be back. The ambiance is nice but relaxed and our server was top notch. Our lesson learned is if you go to a "chophouse" for dinner, order the steaks! You will not be disappointed! read more

Our experience there was delightful. I would rate it between a 4 1/2 and 5 and would definitely go again. We went there for our 7th wedding anniversary and dined in the wine room. We absolutely loved the privacy and ambiance of the room. My husband ordered a Prime Rib Steak and said it was the BEST he'd ever had. That is a very big compliment since my husband is a good cook and has ordered several over the years. I had the filet mignon and would give it a 4. Whereas it was good, it was not as good as some I've had. My filet had garlic mashed potatoes with it, but I left a large majority of those on my plate as I did not really enjoy them. We loved our appetizer, the Shrimp Cocktail, and would give it a 5. They were quality shrimp which seemed to be cooked to perfection. They gave us desserts and we both LOVED the apple pie with bourbon ice cream , it was delectable. We also got the bread pudding, but I did not realize it was an orange flavored bread pudding so my husband finished it off for us. He said he would give that a 4. We had quality service and even the server's assistant was very good. He had VERY good manners and tried to stay on top of things, even the mundane water refills. We would definitely go again and I'm so thankful my husband chose this place for our anniversary dinner. read more

Amazing!! Between the service, the food and the atmosphere, you can't go wrong here. Our waiter, Lanier, was so professional and helpful. He really knew everything about everything and had great suggestions. He made us feel like we were making the best choices :). This is a great place for celebrations. We were celebrating our anniversary and noticed several other couples doing the same. Most people were dressed nicely, but there were a few that looked like they came right from work (wearing scrubs) and it's a lot nicer place than that. The building is beautiful-tin roof, a library and gorgeous floral decorations. Great place-great food-great employees. What a wonderful anniversary! read more

Rick's Chophouse - 26th Anniversary Celebration - Seafood Near Me - McKinney, Texas

Good food. Staff a little jaded but it's the only place in town for a really nice meal.

I lived in McKinney for most of my life and never came to Ricks until Valentines Day weekend. It was wonderful. Our server, Amanda took great care of us and paid attention to detail. We ordered a few cocktails and glasses of wine to drink. The crab dip was delicious and we ordered the oyster appetizer, which came with the works. For our entrees we shared the cowboy ribeye and scallop entree. Both were delicious and the sides that came with each made each entree plentiful. We couldn't help ourselves when it came to dessert and we ordered the key lime pie which was amazing! We had a great experience here and it is a perfect place for a nice date. read more

Came to Rick's Chophouse for the second time - the first time was a few years ago when I was researching where to live in the DFW area. While tooling around McKinney my sister and I stopped here for lunch. At that time I had the buttermilk chicken, which is to die for. I live here now, of course, and when she visited me last week we decided we wanted Rick's again. At one point she mentioned the buttermilk chicken, and then I couldn't get it out of my head. Once we arrived, however, and saw the menu again, we both ended up getting the Chicken Fried Chicken -- a phenomenal dish. I wish we had room for dessert, but I added a wedge salad (my fave!) and so I was really stuffed at the end. We had great service. The bathrooms are cute too. If you're ever in downtown McKinney, this is your spot to eat! read more

Been here twice for the Sunday Brunch! Exceptional both times. Amazing Prime Rib. Everything was cooked and seasoned to perfection. Wait staff very attentive. Looking forward to return for the third time. read more

Stopped in for lunch and the food was delicious. The reason I'm giving it a four out of five stars is because of the lunch prices. Yikes! Aside from that the staff is friendly and the drinks were great. Definitely worth trying when in the area. read more

I went there for the first time to celebrate my birthday. The staff was amazing from the moment I arrived. The food was awesome, everything cooked to perfection! The ambiance was perfect. I loved the experience!!! read more

This is one of our absolute favorites and we spend every anniversary there. Excellent service, delicious food and great ambiance. We love the bar especially. Be advised it can get crowded if they are having an event upstairs in the hotel. I highly recommend making reservations far in advance for special occasions and holidays. read more

Excellent. Been there many times, always have great meals there. When family and friends come to town, this is where we take them.

The absolute best most delicious and exquisite steakhouse. We go here for special occasions, and it feels like such a treat. From the service to the food everything is perfect. read more

We come at least 2/3 times a month for the past 7 years Its #1 on our top 5. By far one of the best restaurants in the DFW. Everything on the menu is good 1) ricks chop House. 2) hugos invitados 3) kennys wood fire grill 4) niwa japanese bbq 5) local yocal 6) harvest read more

Very nice venue with good food. We snagged one of the 4 tables in the bar, the very last one not occupied at 5 30 p.m. on a Saturday night. The bar is a gorgeous room with high tin ceilings, a wall of books, 4 tables and several groupings of plump leather chairs with low tables. The bar selections are nicely displayed on shelves behind the bar, high enough that a rolling library ladder is needed for the top shelves. The whole room looks like a private library with one heck of a nice assortment of booze. Very cool. We had a nice young lady take care of us, did a fine job. RRR and I split a very small (4) portion of fried oysters (SOOOOOOOO good!) with our drinks. I was a bit disappointed in the rye I ordered, no help from our waitress. Dinner was an 8 oz portion of grass fed filet (they have several filet choices) and I split this with RRR. This is the reason for 4 stars instead of 5. This is a steak place in steak country, right? It was perfectly cooked for us, medium rare, but had gristle in it. Not a lot but enough to make it difficult to chew, just not the best filet. huh. I've had much better in Indianapolis. Still, this was a very good dinner overall and a beautiful place to enjoy it. read more

I like this place, good dinner and great service. On our last trip to celebrate an anniversary, apparently, we didn't specify that we wanted a booth.. and I asked for it, but we sat at a table in the middle of the dinning room and watched a booth sit empty all throughout our dinning experience (at the table) I was so disppointed in the hostess who said that was "reserved" for another party. Who apparently, did not show up. SO, if you would like to sit in a booth, make sure that you tell them. read more

The best. A classic steakhouse in downtown McKinney. I have heard Rick is opening a location in downtown Denison. I have seen the construction and it's no rumor. You get what you pay for $$$ with gourmet sides that you expect. Rick's chophouse salad is a must. Every visit is a treat. read more

Always great food and plenty of other choices if you don't want steak. Lots of great appetizers too if you want to eat and drink in the lounge to hear the music. read more

Love this place never had anything that was not delicious! Five stars for sure. Always good food the fried chicken is amazing-- I never eat fried chicken. It was recommended and did not disappoint! read more

Rick's had great food and wonderful service. The environment is very homely. I like how this steakhouse incorporates game meat in their extensive dinner menu. The quality meats were well seasoned especially with spices to help take away from the gamey taste. The sides, especially the scalloped potatoes, are a must try. read more

Rick's Chophouse - Duck - Seafood Near Me - McKinney, Texas

We have there a few times and it always has been great! We definitely will go back. Food is very good and it has a nice atmosphere.

Amazing!! The food was let's just say delicious!! Everything was fresh. Well presented and each person at my table enjoyed their entree and drinks. The service could have been a little better- it seemed the staff kept coming around trying to clear our plates before we were done and every time one of us went to the restroom we had someone "guard" our food but other than that hands down the best food I've had in a long time. Go and see for yourself! You won't be disappointed. (Unless someone takes your food away early ) read more

We loved this classy, cozy, vintage restaurant! The service was friendly and thoughtful. The highlight was a salad with watermelon, tomato, fresh mint and arugula sprinkled with goat cheese, drizzled with balsamic reduction and then topped with a scoop of watermelon sorbet. read more

This is an amazing restaurant with an upscale vibe. The portions are large and the quality is outstanding. Go early and spend some time in the back bar area. Perfect for a romantic date night. You can call the grand hotel (connected to restaurant) and get a package that includes meal, drinks, room fir the night with Champaign and chocolate covered strawberries read more

Celebrated my parents 38th Wedding Anniversary and I must say Bradley and Lanier are the gentlemen to ask for when visiting Rick's. We were seated in a comfortable private room, due to the size of our party. Extremely relaxed, and comfortable vibe. Bradley and Lanier made sure to explain the entire process of Rick's brunch menu was fully explained. We never went without asking for anything. Both gentlemen were prompt in our needs. Please do yourself the pleasure of visiting Rick's and again be sure to ask for Brad and Lanier! A1 service fellas! read more

Absolutely incredible service at Rick's! My family took me there to celebrate my promotion at work (I was in Texas to visit my family). At least three employees personally came to congratulate me, they gave me a free dessert, and they even wrote congratulations on the plate! So awesome. The food was also very good, standard steakhouse fare. I has the carpetbagger and spinach salad both were great. They were also extremely accommodating about switching side dishes. I felt safe in the restaurant as well they were taking COVID precautions. read more

I live just a few block in Historic McKinney, so I frequent Rick's. I love the chopped salad for lunch. The passion chili margarita is my favorite cocktail! The service is always good. The food is very tasty and the portions just right ! Stop in and give it a try - I don't think you will be disappointed. read more

OK SO ...... as I'm sitting here in a food coma I'm trying to think of words to describe the whole experience. spatular seems too ordinary lol. It was our anniversary so we were hoping it was going to be a good experience and boy oh boy was it ever!!!! Our waiter ( James ) was excellent so attentive and engaging. We started w the crab dip w chips there was tons of real crab meat in it and the chips had a special seasoning on them that was so good. I ordered the filet which was 8 oz it was beyond perfect cooked medium perfectly seasoned and perfect temperature it came w whipped mashed potatoes and fresh steamed green beans oh my gosh y'all every item on that plate was absolutely delicious!!! My hubby got the cowboy which was an enormous ribeye in bone he moaned w each bite he said it was the best steak he had ever eaten in his life we also got a side of street corn which was amazing the corn was really sweet so it made the dish extra good. The bread that they serve w the meal was so soft and tasty and the whipped butter was good enough to eat by itself lol. Because it was our anniversary they let us chose any dessert for free we chose the chocolate vanilla brownies chocolate ice cream and chocolate moose. And...... you guessed it!!! Deliciously decadent. I would highly highly recommend this place I promise you will be happy you did. One tip-: make a reservation 2 weeks in advance for ur desired time we only reserved a week in advance so the only time slot available was 5:45 which ended up being fine because we were there for almost 2 hrs. The atmosphere is so relaxing and pretty it was nice having a drink and not feeling in a rush. read more

Rick's Chophouse - Top left is the filet bottom left the cowboy ribeye. - Seafood Near Me - McKinney, Texas

I was in town from San Diego. I asked for a referral from a friend living here. This restaurant is old and dark .....no table cloths ...very inexpensive silverware. Excellent service, our waiter was gracious and enthusiastic as well as informed about the food. The food was so heavy. The beet salad virtually tasteless. I went in very optimistic. The prices are reasonable - the food rates a 2 star review unfortunately. We had water to drink And our waiter and making recommendations he said based on pairing it with what we were drinking which was Pellegrino and hot water with lemon was quite silly read more

Sunday brunch is amazing! Lots of really good options and the prime rib is so good! Definitely my favorite part.

Great ambiance, great food, great drinks! This place is pricey but a good choice for the occasional splurge meal for a special event. My brother took me here during my recent visit to Texas (which means I was the special event - yay, me!) and we had a wonderful experience. The restaurant had a long wait (even at 7:00 on a Tuesday in early-Dec) so they offered the bar/lounge, which was perfectly charming. Located in a separate room in the back, you can sit at the bar or at one of the many cigar-room style 4-top tables, complete with cozy barrel chairs. It didn't feel like we were not part of the normal restaurant, other than a slightly different vibe. The servers were no less attentive than you'd expect in a dining hall. The menu is small but mighty, offering all the traditional chophouse selections (think sirloin, filet mignon) as well has a few yummy fish options. I personally had a spinach salad, calamari, and tortilla soup that was all very good. (I didn't expect calamari to be anything special in northern Texas but was surprised. The sauce was not a traditional aioli and added a lot of flavor.) I snuck a few bites of my brothers meal (fish, but I forget which) which was also very tasty. B O T T O M L I N E : This was probably a one-time visit for me (since I live several states away) but would recommend it if you're nearby and looking for a nice meal. read more

Make reservations early! Always busy after 6pm on Friday and Saturdays. Excellent food and the service- amazing!!

I can not say enough positive things about our experience at Rick's Chophouse. We chose this fine restaurant to host our son and daughter in law's rehearsal dinner in March. We live out of state and working with Claire and Allie about the details and menu prior to the dinner could not have been easier nor more professional. No detail was left unattended and every request was granted. The food was amazing and the service was excellent! I would 100% recommend using Rick's for any event you are planning. They will go above and beyond to make your event special and remarkable. It is difficult to find good service much less remarkable service. My husband and I were beyond impressed and so grateful for all of the work and care put into our special night. Thank you Allie and Claire! read more

This place is a must to check out. We went Saturday might, so the vibe in the back with the bar was great. Reminded me of a parent's basement with mahogany cupboards and leather couches. Live music was cool. The drinks were good. The food was good, though the steak could have had some salt. Overall, a cool place to snag some drinks and grub in Mckinney. read more
