A great surprise. A random pick on open table led us to Ricardo’s Bar & Grill. Immediately we loved the feel of the place. Live music was fun. Service was excellent. We both had the fried chicken and were not disappointed! Can’t wait to go back.
Great place for a Happy Happy! Nice and friendly staff too! The happy hour nachos are really good too!
Great food and service. Love this locals bar where everyone knows each other. “Cheers” vibe!
The outside and inside look respectable, the drinks are priced good, and the staff seems eager to please. I enjoyed stopping into this watering hole for a couple of beers while I was in the neighborhood.
Happy hour wings for $5 were big, just spicy enough, and cooked to perfection. Good tap selection and friendly bar staff. Might have to try Saturday night karaoke...
With a recent add of karaoke on Saturday nights I learned that I actually had a neighborhood pub! Apparently you got started after I moved here and did my research on what was around and I missed that!My wife and I joke about how much we have so so much close to us and how silly it is that they say we have a little walkability score for our house!Because this bar, along with a place my kid gets his haircuts, and where we order our sushi, and where we get our pizza, and where we get Italian food, and where we get our Chinese food, all in that same shopping complex! And right next door apparently is this pretty fun little bar called Ricardo'sNot a dive bar, based on the prices, and I really wish they would post their prices for drinks, or have menus that you could actually find. It seems like I get charged different amounts for the same thing. I believe in full disclosure so people know what they're doing. So if there's a drink menu somewhere I have not seen it.The karaoke however is fun, well populated on Saturday night by both regulars and people who follow the music.I wish that the karaoke had an elevated stage, or they move the tables in the corner to where the karaoke is and they put the karaoke there because you can't really see anyone singing and you can barely hear them because the sound system is not top of the line.But still a fun time even if their list of songs is limited.
The food was ok. The French Dip was too salty, and the bleu cheese dressing was pretty mild. But the service was terrible. It was pretty empty, but the waitress still asked me to move to smaller table. The water she brought left a huge puddle that started running toward me, but I had no napkin to wipe it up - nor did she when she brought my food. She brought the wrong salad dressing. She never came back to ask how things were and if i needed anything. It took FOREVER to have her come back with my bill. I asked for more water when she brought my food, but she didn't bring it until she brought my bill. In addition, several patrons at the bar were so loud that I had to cover my ears. But though they could have asked them to pipe down, that's not entirely their fault. I won't go back.
Ricardo is now once again running the place. So, it is now a great place to go. Trish is a great Bartender and Host!
They are doing some switching around. Drinks were good.
Used to be our go to dinner spot, and bar for drinks. Now, under new management, all the old staff everyone loved is gone, and the menu has really gone down hill. Their new cocktail menu looks like they’re trying to be an “upscale” Applebees and the new cooks are not able to produce food even close to the quality of the previous chef. Really sad the neighborhood gem has taken such a downturn. Will definitely not be returning.
