Came into this restaurant by accident, but the waitress was very kind and it was cute inside. Definitely overpriced and I wouldn't get the ribs again, but their potatoes and fries were good. I was told the steak was exceptional.

Charlene welcomed us and showed us to our table. Darian was our server and she was friendly and very attentive. I loved my meal particularly the chicken tenders and bread. Gravy was perfectly done ✅ it is a nice restaurant with good ambiance. Prices are very good actually.

Food was beautiful & drinks were catered to well. I did ask for a suggestion as they didn’t carry titos and their choice suited me well! My waiter was really kind and attentive to our needs. I would absolutely return to this location & recommend everyone to try once.

Calf fries were very good. Our waiter, Greg, made sure to check to see if we knew what they were before we ordered them (which we did know previously). The tenderloin I ordered was indeed tender and properly seasoned. Probably the best steak I’ve had in a looong time. I wish I had another handful of fries to match the other person at the table who ordered regular fries.
Only took a star away for the atmosphere. Walking in and while sitting, there was a strong cleaning odor. The inside reminded me of Cracker Barrel.
Prices were extremely fair for a tourist area.

Was finally able to try this pace.

It’s definitely not bad . Steak was definitely cooked very well. Fries were nice and the salad was very nice size.

Service was a little slow especially for not being jam packed on arrival.

I was able to resolve my curiosity.

The decor is super cool.

Honestly, Christiana- our server was impeccable! She made our dinner so enjoyable! Our prime rib was delicious, and so was our filet- additionally, I love sweet potato fries, and they were yummy. Don’t expect fancy fine dining, because what you’ll get is beautiful Texas hospitality. Also, the prices are good- definitely will be back! Forgot to take dinner pics, because too busy having a great dinner and time!

My wife and I enjoyed Riscky's at 4:30pm on a Thursday. We were immediately shown to a table, our waiter took our drink and appetizer order right away. When he came back with water he took our order. He was friendly, professional, talked a little about the stockyards, pointing out little things but never talked too long, never interrupting my wife and I. He kept our glasses full.
We ordered fried green beans, asparagus, mashed potatoes. All excellent.
He brought us a few bread rolls. They had a darker flavor which was interesting and a fresh take on rolls that I appreciated.
We shared the 16oz prime aged ribeye cooked to medium. I've been to a handful of prime steakhouses, and this easily topped all those. It had the flavor of a new york strip while being a melt-in-your-mouth ribeye.

Atmosphere was good. It was fancy without going over the top. It was actually the reason my wife picked this restaurant over the other two steakhouses nearby. One small critism is the men's bathroom. They need to take a little more pride in their men's bathroom. Not that it was dirty, it was clean. But it could stand to be updated. Or at least the calking around the sink could be re-applied. That's honestly the only thing I could find to criticize about this restaurant. I had to really look hard for something to be wrong.
Excellent across the board.

Ricky’s Steakhouse in Fort Worth is an absolute gem! My family and I were visiting from Florida. Our experience was nothing short of fantastic. Right from the start, there was no wait, (not that it wasn’t busy it was. They have ample seating. The outside is doesn’t so it justice), which set a positive tone for the evening. The food was absolutely amazing—each dish was cooked to perfection and served promptly.

The drink selection was impressive and complemented our meals beautifully. We couldn’t resist trying the desserts, and they were truly mouthwatering—definitely a highlight of the meal!

Our server, Gregg, was exceptional. He was personable, attentive, and made fantastic recommendations that enhanced our dining experience.

The ambiance of the restaurant is charming, reminiscent of an old western town, which added a delightful touch to the evening. If you find yourself in the Fort Worth Stockyards, I highly recommend visiting Ricky’s Steakhouse. Our family left thoroughly satisfied and excited to return. You absolutely will not be disappointed!

I ordered Prime Ribeye. Steak was a little overpriced, but extremely delicious and juicy. Just like it should be. Also fries were very good. Service is fast, but feels like waitresses were on autopilot. Recommend place if you are nearby.

The atmosphere was nice, it was decorated like an old western street scape. There was no wait. We were able to get right in. Granted, it was a Tuesday around 1:00 pm. The food was good. You could cut the chicken fried steak with a fork. We got the bread pudding to go. It was good, but it was definitely not worth the $10 price tag (it was basically fresh bread with a caramel sauce. Our server was not fantastic. It almost seemed like he had a chip on his shoulder. All in all, I'm glad we went, but I probably don't need to go back.

At Riscky’s Steak House, the chicken fried steak is a delightful comfort food experience. The dish features a generously sized, tender piece of beef, perfectly breaded and fried to a golden crisp. The rich, creamy gravy adds a luscious touch that complements the savory flavors of the steak. Served with classic sides like mashed potatoes and green beans, it’s a hearty meal that satisfies. The ambiance of the restaurant enhances the overall experience, making it a fantastic spot for a casual yet fulfilling dining outing. Highly recommended for those craving a taste of Southern comfort!
