For a wonderful dining atmosphere paired with a wonderful menu, try Rick’s Chophouse. This popular restaurant, located in the historic Grand Hotel in downtown McKinney TX, provides a sophisticated atmosphere that features deep leather booths, mahogany walls and a restored tin-pressed ceiling in a building that dates back to 1885. The menu is just as spectacular as the surroundings as Rick’s Chophouse provides diners with meals steeped in southern tradition using ingredients that are locally sourced.
While the food here pays a definite homage to the past, everything is prepared with a modern sensibility. Customers love the thick butcher-grade steaks and the tasty way in which the chefs at Rick’s prepare traditional fried chicken by brining it first before dipping pieces in buttermilk. The hickory-smoked ribs not only are tasty but are fall-off-the-bone soft.
As a chophouse customer, you can expect to find plenty of red meat offerings. Rick’s doesn’t disappoint in this area as the menu includes traditional offerings such as several types of beef filets, porterhouse steaks, prime rib, New York strip steaks, ribeyes and pork chops. For the more adventurous palate, Rick’s offers Colorado lamb rib chops along with elk and buffalo tenderloin.
In addition to traditional dishes, Rick’s Chophouse also offers contemporary creative offerings that include appetizers such as Wagyu beef skewers, Blackened Ahi Tuna and pork belly; salads featuring spinach, field greens and watermelon; salmon prepared with roasted poblano peppers, chili powder and caramelized onions and diver scallops topped with saffron risotto, swiss chard and mustard seed chorizo vinaigrette.
Portions are generous at this McKinney TX restaurant, so you may not have room for the delicious desserts that include warmed bread pudding, Texas pecan pie and rustic apple pie. Gluten-free selections are available for both lunch and dinner. Reservations are recommended for evenings and weekends.
