Second time trying Rick’s & still not impressed. There was a nasty odor when we first walked into the restaurant. Hostess/waitress had a skirt on that was so short her butt cheeks were hanging out, really not appetizing. It took forever to get our food & it was just so so. Price was expensive compared to other much better restaurants in Tyler. Won’t be returning.

This was our first visit since moving to the area, and this is a really cool place. Loved the building and the service was top notch! The food was very good and I can’t wait to explore their menu more.

Service was fast despite a busy night. The nacho appetizer was a meal and a half, lots of cheese and meat. The pork chop was juicy and perfectly prepared. The grilled vegetables were perfection! So many menu items looked tempting, we will definitely be back!

Our server was the best. Super attentive. Our appetizer was delicious the crawfish beignets. For dinner I ordered the stuffed seafood filet. It came out with nothing, our waitress took it back she bought it back and said the manger was going to send crawfish. She back with a small container of crawfish. They weren’t baked in. Super disappointing. At the end I talked to the manger who extremely rude, and his response was I gave you extra crawfish and I saw nothing on your plate. I said well the crawfish are all there check again. We won’t be back.

Decent, but uninspiring restaurant lacking creativity and something setting itself apart from other similar American faire spots.

Rick's on the Square never fails to impress. This was our 3rd visit and our meal was delicious! We highly recommend any of the steaks as they are cooked to order and we have never been disappointed! For starters, we highly suggest the shrimp cocktail and calamari. The menu is impressive and we guarantee, there are so many unique choices. Your tastebuds will highly surprised. We recommend Rick's on the square for lunch, dinner and special occasions! The staff is very friendly and goes out of their way to accommodate requests. The music is enjoyable and the entire ambiance is truly comfortable. Rick's on the Square is a true jewel for Tyler! We will definitely be back!

Food took a long time to come out, waiter said kitchen was backed up. Everyone's food was good except the steak that was ordered medium was medium well and tough. Rick's is usually excellent, so maybe just a little off that night.

The quality of food in this restaurant is a step above other restaurants. The steaks are so tender you can cut them with a butter knife. Have eaten here twice and it’s been great both times. Will definitely be back
