A friend and I came here for the Halloween themed cocktails. I was pleased to discover that they have a dedicated gluten free fryer and so I was able to order food as well. We got the fried chicken and Mexica street corn as well as several of the specialty cocktails. The bartender/server was warm and helpful and made sure we always had fresh drinks and great service. All in all a really great experience. Definitely will come back again!

I'm a huge Nightmare Before Christmas fan and was really excited to check out this themed event—but it was honestly a big disappointment. When we walked in, there was nothing themed at all. No decor, no atmosphere, nothing RELATED to NBC, which was really disappointing. On top of that, the drinks were $20 each and didn't even look appetizing. Overall, it was a letdown and definitely not worth the hype. Unfortunately, we won't be going back.

Went for the Halloween pop up and was quite impressed. Some pretty unique drinks and the decor added to the experience.

I had met two owners Cevanna and Colin might scare you with their impeccable service 💯

“You might pass it by a hundred times, until Halloween makes it come alive.”

wow a lot of 1 star reviews lately that sums up our experience as well i hate coming here as theirs a lot of places close that are better cocktails and get better service but some places are bad one day then good the next but that's just not the case here. Rude service and junk cocktails that just don't flow and work together and the bartender just doesn't care my recommendation is go any where else as this was our third time here in 2 years and our last which is sad to see that even after multiple 1 star reviews soooo quickly too lol that should tell the owners something about the current staff.

I think it's slightly misleading to call Ricardo's a restaurant. It's a bar that decided to put a few things on a menu. The food was good but there are only two entree choices, one dessert. There are only a few tables and it was excruciatingly loud. I couldn't hear the person at my table. My purse didn't even fit beside me on the bench it's so small. Great for a pit stop for a cocktail while on your way to dinner.

This place once upon a time was amazing and worth the stop. It’s really just a waste now. The full order of chicken is just 4 drumsticks? The ceviche they give you 4-5 chips to scoop it with??????? I’m confused because I used to tell everyone to go, and now I just won’t go back.

This place is where laid back island vibes meet sophistication! We loved the atmosphere, perfect for having a fair priced quality meal, tasty drinks and a conversation where you don't have to yell over the music. So lovely =)

Great mix of refreshing and more classic cocktails. Food and service and vibe great. Look forward to their dark spirit cocktail season.

The manager at this place needs to be reminded he works in the service industry and how to treat customers. We had a table of 13 and he lost all of our business.
