Our server seemed annoyed when we asked questions or recommendations. Food was ok, very expensive and not worth what we paid.
Amazing food and service. It was a bit loud as it was hard to talk to those right next to you
Credit card machine was out and they asked us to use paper forms to write down our card information. Incredibly unprofessional and in this day and economy.... Alarming! Food was ok, service was jarring. Collecting food from my table before we were finished. We started asking if they were closing or something. 8:30 on a Monday night... just disappointed for the price tag!
Food and service were top notch. I wouldn't say it's the best steak or steak house in the area but it was very good. We got the oysters, streak and carrot cake... no complaints on the quality. The ambience is a bit off... It's a wide open space with very few windows and decor. The bar has some cool features as well as plenty of seating. The thing that stood out most to us was that it's crazy loud, like highschool cafeteria loud. It was very odd because it wasn't full. It didn't wreck our evening but we were very surprised at the noise level. All in all... We both said we would return at some point.
We were close to the bar and the bartenders were very noisy with the glasses and dishes. Also, tables are a bit close. Otherwise, service was excellent. Our server, Cara, was attentive without being overbearing. Her suggestions were excellent.
We really enjoyed Trick Rider. We only ate off the appetizer menu and had some great cocktails. We always look at the glass wines and the wine list and were not really impressed with either - but wine has become so expensive these days that we are more likely to have cocktails anyway!
Absolutely amazing. My wife and I went for our anniversary and had a great time. Our service from the staff (especially from Elisha) was great. Everything was cooked to perfection. We especially enjoyed the crispy calamari. Will definitely go back again and again.
My family of ten dined at Trick Rider on Saturday evening to celebrate my mother’s birthday, and unfortunately the experience was far from what we expected.
We had specifically requested a table in the main dining room, but were initially placed in a private room. While the room was beautiful, it was not what my mother wanted or what we had requested. After waiting over 20 minutes, we were eventually moved to the main dining area.
Our server, William, made the evening especially disappointing. He seemed uninterested in hosting us and came across as rude. He insisted that we provide our entire order—including appetizers, entrées, and sides—all at once, and when we asked for recommendations, he repeatedly responded with “I’m not sure” and dismissive looks. His demeanor made what should have been a joyful celebration uncomfortable and unpleasant.
For a party of six adults and four teenagers, we spent over $1,000+ and I feel awful for having suggested Trick Rider for such an important occasion. I am sharing this feedback in the hope that it will help improve the service for future guests.
Our family of four recently dined at Trick Rider, nestled inside the stunning PGA Frisco Hotel, and we can confidently say this was one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in quite some time.
🕯️ Ambiance & First Impressions
From the moment we arrived, the service was prompt and professional. We had dinner reservations and were seated within minutes of checking in—no long waits, no chaos, just smooth, high-end hospitality. The interior is modern, stylish, and elegant, making it perfect for both family celebrations and romantic evenings. While the lighting inside the restaurant is on the darker side—slightly more than we prefer—it adds a moody, luxurious vibe that fits the venue.
🥖 Appetizers & Bread Service
Now, let me start by saying this—I’m not typically a bread eater. But Trick Rider’s bread? Incredible. Warm, fresh, and flavorful enough to make even a bread skeptic reach for a second (or third) piece. The calamari appetizer was equally impressive—light, crispy, and expertly seasoned. It was a perfect way to kick off the meal.
🥗 Hearty Caesar Salad
We also ordered the Caesar salad, and wow—it’s not your typical starter portion. It’s hearty and generous, easily enough for two or three people to share. The flavor is bold and rich, thanks to a heavy-handed Caesar dressing. If you’re not into strong dressings, it may be a bit much, but we absolutely enjoyed it. It added great balance to the richness of the main course.
🥩 Main Course – The Trio Steak Sampler
If you try only one thing at Trick Rider, let it be the Trio Steak Sampler. Every cut of steak was seared to perfection—tender, juicy, and seasoned just right. The garlic mashed potatoes that came with it were possibly the best I’ve ever had at a restaurant—buttery, creamy, with just the right amount of garlic to make each bite pop. While the steak portions might look modest at first glance, they are surprisingly filling and worked out perfectly for our party of four.
🍸 Signature Drink – “All She Wrote”
We couldn’t pass up the opportunity to try one of their specialty cocktails, and we’re so glad we didn’t. The “All She Wrote” is a clever, elevated blend of bourbon, Grand Marnier, and vanilla. It’s smooth, warming, and balanced with a hint of sweetness that makes it both approachable and bold. We thoroughly enjoyed this drink—it felt like a custom-crafted cocktail experience all on its own.
🍰 Dessert – Massive Carrot Cake
Even after a satisfying meal, we couldn’t resist checking out the dessert menu—and we’re so glad we did. We ordered the carrot cake, and let me just say—it’s HUGE. The portion easily feeds three to four people. It’s moist, spiced beautifully, and layered with rich cream cheese frosting. It was the perfect sweet ending to a perfect night.
✅ Final Thoughts
From start to finish, Trick Rider delivered a five-star dining experience. The service was seamless, the food was memorable, and the atmosphere elevated the entire evening. Whether you’re staying at the PGA Frisco Hotel or just in the area looking for a refined dining spot, Trick Rider is a must-visit.
If you’re celebrating, hosting out-of-town guests, or just want to enjoy incredible food in a beautiful setting, make your reservation and treat yourself—you won’t regret it.

From start to finish, this was an absolutely amazing experience. The service was excellent, the atmosphere was welcoming, but the real star of the night was the steak. Hands down the best steak I’ve ever had — perfectly cooked, tender, juicy, and packed with flavor in every bite. You can tell they use top-quality cuts and know exactly how to prepare them. Truly unforgettable. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. This will definitely be my go-to spot for steak from now on!

My boyfriend and I went to Trick Rider back in February to celebrate our anniversary and the food was amazing but what I was really blown away by was the service by Steve!! This review is so overdue, but the fact that I still remember him after all these months is a true testament to his awesome service. He really made our night special and went above and beyond.

Service was amazing!!! Food tasted great as well. I gave the food 3 stars only because the portion size for the sides are small.

The current General Manager at this restaurant demonstrates unprofessional and disrespectful behavior toward guests, myself included. Her rude and dismissive manner creates an unpleasant atmosphere that reflects poorly on the Omni PGA brand. Until there is a change in management, I will not be returning to this restaurant
