This was my first time to Rick's we had a great Mother's Day. Service was great, food was delicious and so were the Mimosas. We sat on the enclosed patio looking out on the water watching boats sailing by. I had the catfish dinner and it was seasoned perfectly. We had two appetizers the lump crab spinach dip and the roast beef sliders. The sun was out and even with it being a hot 80 degree day the temperature was great with a cool light breeze. Can't wait to go back again. ?Dietary restrictions: My 5 yr old grandson and sister have seafood allergies and the servers took extra care to make sure they were not in danger and no cross contamination. Parking: I had to park pretty far but that didn't matter because they had a golf cart and drive to take you to and from parking lot.Kid-friendliness: My grandkids loved walking outside watching the boats and we took pictures. The children's menu and food were good.

2024 Remodel has freshened the space. This is a bustling environment with great views of Eagle Creek Reservoir. This visit my party dined inside asks had a very enjoyable experience.Parking: The parking lot is expansive, but may require a bit of a walk to the entrance.

Food was decent but did not match the value it’s priced at. Interior is very pretty, but I was very surprised the outdoor patio seating area is plastic fold up tables. Very, very cheap and again does not match the price point you are paying. I don’t understand the set up and left very extremely underwhelmed.

I wasn't a fan of the fettuccine but the fries were great along with the brownie sundae. My alcoholic drink didn't taste like it had any alcohol in it.

We have always enjoyed eating here, the food, the service is awesome, but then to add the view of the dam and reservoir makes the experience so much better.

Oh! What a wonderful dining experience. Not only outstanding food, service and atmosphere inside, but driving up to the restaurant with the little airport on the right the prestigious building overlooking the reservoir creates a level of excitement you don't get at a chain restaurant. We sat inside by the window, we were offered outside seating. We had a reservation and got seated right away. The pictures will say a thousand words but I will add it will be a birthday dinner my wife will never forget.

Just meh. Service and quality of food has definitely slipped in the last year. Definitely not worth the premium price and unenthusiastic service. May try at lunch but otherwise no longer one of my go-to's.
