Walked in expecting at least a smile from people working. Not a smile was given. Almost felt like we were a burden for just walking in. The place was freezing cold. Ordered Mahi MahI then the server came back and said they were out. I said I would take the Tilapia instead so she said do you want the steam rice and broccoli that came with the Mahi Mahi. Since it took awhile for a server to take our order in the first place and I no longer had a menu so no idea of what other choices I had, to make it easy, I said yes. They charged me extra for the broccoli. It might have been a good idea to let me know that before suggesting it. My husband had the Lasagna. It was just ok as well. Service all the way around was somewhat slow. Food was not worth the price paid. Definitely won't be back. read more

Amazing food and family atmosphere! The staff is friendly and welcoming! The menu has such a variety of delicious dishes!

There's usually always a hour wait on a Saturday night but thankfully due to football season we got seated immediately. Seems like they were definitely understaffed but nonetheless the service was still great! Food was amazing. I highly recommend ordering the crab claws with butter and the boudin balls ! For my entree I got the shrimp Alfredo and the shrimp was cooked to perfection! I also tried my mother's steak on the surf and turf and it was great as well. The prices in generally are pretty great for the serving size. I'll definitely be back! read more

I'm longing to return to the restaurant, best service, prime ribs are put of this world, great service, plenty of parking spaces.

Great local place with a fantastic menu. Took the family over and everyone got something different. Everything tasted great. Nice atmosphere, very comfortable and inviting. Staff was attentive and friendly. Definitely coming back. read more

We just moved to Lincoln from California and decided to try Rick's. The Cajun fettuccine with shrimp and the garlic bread were excellent! We also tried a side order of fried okra and it was the best we had ever had in a restaurant. Our server, Lexi was a sweetheart and gave us great service. We highly recommend Rick's and we plan to come back often. Maybe next time for a ribeye "with dirt on it"! Thank you. read more

Ate there last year. Food was outstanding. Prices affordable. Ample parking. Live a bit away from it, but fir sure going bak. Lovely place to est amazing food. read more

The atmosphere is great here. Parking is convenient. The decor is cute and welcoming. The servers are friendly and helpful. On the last occasion we dined in, I had a vegetable plate of sides, and they were average - pretty much what you would expect for things like coleslaw, mashed potatoes, broccoli, green beans, etc. I absolutely love their hush puppies. Soft, not too greasy and just a hint of onion. Delicious! My husband had spaghetti marinara. They did a fantastic job providing plenty of sauce (some places skimp). He did say that the spaghetti was OK, but it didn't have a lot of flavor. Tasted like there was just a little Italian seasoning sprinkled over it or into it before serving. We have also tried the cheese curds appetizer before. It was very nice. We found the price of the items we ordered to be very reasonable. If I have any issue with the restaurant, it is the design of the bathrooms. Talk about sitting on the throne lol. There is one toilet in the men's bathroom and one in the women's. They are elevated on bricks/block. I have no idea what the thinking was regarding this, but if you have limited mobility or you are handicapped, then you are probably out of luck regarding these restrooms. The women's bathroom does have safety rails around the toilet, but they are extremely flimsy aluminum. If you are able-bodied and have no issues restricting your mobility, then this will not be a problem for you, but it is important to note for folks who are in wheelchairs or who have mobility issues because you will either struggle or find it impossible to use the facilities as they are definitely not handicap friendly. There is a very nice changing table in the women's bathroom, so if you have young children, you will find that helpful. I am including a photo of the toilet in the women's bathroom to help out my disabled/mobility challenged friends. read more

Rick's Crossroads Grille - Commode in the women's bathroom. - Steakhouses Near Me - Lincoln, Alabama

Excellent, as posted by others. Wait was long but well worth it, especially after the race.

my family can NOT stop raving about their Cajun Alfredo sauce. It is like crack. I would swear that the police need to investigate their sauce. we could not get enough of it. WHEN you go, not if, make sure to get either that or the Tiger Tilapia. It tasted like the same sauce. You will NOT be disappointed. read more

Found this place off Lincoln exit if I20. Pretty busy on a Saturday night. Was seated rather quickly minimal wait. Had the grilled Mahi Mahi came out a little overcooked ask for Cole slaw , hush puppies, and fries. Never received hush puppies. Service was busy but average. Also a little pricey for the quality. read more

Came here from miles away as reviews were good and had good variety & steaks. Noticed another Review indicating come early, before 5:30 pm. Arrived at 5:10 m Saturday, wait outside the door. Already. 25 minutes per hostess. Sat in car until they called us. We were sat in separate room, loud on far left. Nice country farm appeal. Waitress took drink order & went ahead ordered Prime rib & Surf & Turf. Here we is the challenging part - At 65 Minutes, Still no food- wife not happy as although large party with kids left, another was brought in Equally loud- room is not very big, so we asked to move. Manager moved us to main room, much quieter, she Apologized for the wait. At 75 minutes since we ordered, the Manager brought our food, apologized again. Food was fairly hot and everything tasty. The Only reason I did not give a 1 or 2 Star was the Manager turned around our negative experience into a better one. Should have gotten her name, but Thank You! read more

Had a delicious dinner here. My oysters were cooked perfectly, not overcooked, and the shrimp were a little smaller than I had at another local restaurant, but were still very good. Good hush puppies. Service was friendly, but slow but they had a large crowd. Overall I throughly enjoyed and recommend it! read more

Wonderful place to eat. Ask about Rick's hot sauce. Try the Cajun Alfredo! Small town feel and great food and service.

I love this place. The salmon is great!!! The staff is friendly and helpful. I have had their seafood dishes and they are great also.

27$. The food was delicious and was given a generous amount. It wasn't the BEST prime rib of my life but for the price it was well worth it. read more

Rick's Crossroads Grille - Sur and turf (prime rib and fried shrimp) with red beans and rice and garlic mash(not pictured). - Steakhouses Near Me - Lincoln, Alabama

The food is ok but some things are over priced. The people running the restaurant appear to be friendly.... they will sit you at a table and forget about you. They may not even get your drink order. If theydo take your order then beware that if you are a larger group then they will prepare couples meals 1st. Even people who come in after you will eat and be leaving and you still won't have your food. We had 3 small children who sat and waited almost 2 hours. They didn't even offer food to my 3 2 year old. When I said we were leaving, the management got angry. At us!!! No apologies to us. No discounts offered. Awful experience!!! read more

Cool little spot in Lincoln Alabama. Really liked the inside from what I saw. I picked up a to go order but unfortunately they forgot some of our order and the dressings for the salad. However, the food was good and the service was nice. read more

I tried something a friend was eating and it was delicious. I've heard everything is delicious and I look forward to trying most things.

Very good Red beans and rice are really good I ordered to go twice. The 1 st time it was like they did not start my order till I showed up at the time they said it would be done Food is a 5, having to wait drops the score read more

My kids thought the crab claws were ok but the chicken parm was not very good. My wife got a chicken sandwich that was bland. Maybe the Cajun food is better but we didn't try that. read more

Rick's Crossroads Grille - Stump hole cake is Delicious yum - Steakhouses Near Me - Lincoln, Alabama

Chill atmosphere with very friendly service. Average wait time I would say for the food and worth it. A lot of food per serving. Our table ordered: fried mushrooms, jalapeño poppers, chopped steak, spaghetti, Philly cheese steaks, & roast beef poboy. We were all very happy with our food. This is a must return and try again on our next visit to the area. read more

We love Rick's. The boudin balls are the best with the dippin sauce. Crystal usually alway gets the blacken fish but tried the Ribeye this time. And when they ask if you want it dirty just say yes, don't ask what? I was feeling homie so I went simple hamburger steak with onions and gravy. Always get desert. This time it was the stumphole cake. I highly recommend it. read more

Food is always good. The service staff needs to be trained to go back to the table being served to ask if the customers need anything else. I wanted a piece of stump hole cake. Never got it because we never saw our server after she brought our food. Asked for cocktail sauce when she brought food but never saw it either. So if you're good a flagging down your server, the food is worth it. read more

Simply put WOW! From the outside this doesn't strike you as anything fancy. They do have a great view of the sun as it's setting, but outside of that it looks like a local's favorite. As we entered we were greeted by a few people outside and the server was quick to seat us. Nothing fancy here, just a typical diner atmosphere with chairs you pull in and out ... I don't recall seeing any booths. The server's (I think were all or mostly all family) seemed to take pride in their job and were very friendly and were more then accommodating throughout our meal. Drink refills, additional dipping sauce, checked on us to make sure the food was cooked to our liking. They hit on all the points that you would expect to get at a upscale restaurant, but unfortunately they are unable to perform and provide this type of service. Food came out quickly and was extremely flavorful. Portions were large and we were able to share an app and an entree (cube steak was amazing!). The broccoli didn't look like anything special, but it was really pretty tasty. And mixing the sauce for the steak with the rice, highly recommended. Dessert actually led us to start googling to try to find recipes for future home use. We really couldn't have been happier with the experience and were led here based on some of the great reviews we saw. DISCLAIMER TIME: Now is probably the time to add - I've read plenty of reviews now and there were a few that were not so nice about people giving this place a high rating. So let's be abundantly clear this isn't a Fleming's or Perry's or Highlands -- But, for what it is it is and comparing it to similar type restaurants, they truly have a great product. Good food and friendly staff. They actually act like they care about your dining experience and it shows throughout the course of the meal. I would recommend this to others and personally my gf and I look forward to coming back and trying some of the other menu items. read more

Bon Appetit The food is delicious and the service is amazing. A might visit for delicious food.

All my past experiences at Rick's have been great. However tonight we showed up at 8:27pm and they would not seat us saying they were closed. Meanwhile the sign outside is glowing the hours "open until 9:00pm"! So disappointing. read more

Heard great things about this grille from locals and decided to check it out. The grille was spacious, always busy, and have this southern charm to it. Plenty of parking space as well. The staff were so friendly and helpful. We went to eat dinner around 6 and sat down right before the dinner crowd started to pick up. The food was surprisingly delicious and we were in love with their hush puppies. Portions are big and easily shareable. We will definitely be coming back more. Taste of home cook meal with a kick of Louisiana flavor! read more

My wife and I went there February 11 ,2023 what we thought was going to be a nice meal at Rick's. We were wrong steak was maybe 1/4 inch thick very over cooked no taste. One of the worst steaks I have ever eat. Rick's is under new owners it is not what it used to be. The restaurant was so cold we had to wear our big coats the whole time we were there even after complaining to our waitress. Spent $80.00 for the lesson, Name should have been changed when it was sold and I wouldn't have made this mistake. Sorry this happen Rick's used to be outstanding. I will not be back Steve B. read more

Always Delicious, and fast service, good cajun selections too , easygoing atmosphere, give em a try.

EXCELLENT RIBEYE BEST COOKED AND TASTING ONE I HAVE ATE AT A RESTAURANT IN PROBABLY 10 YEARS ! I USUALLY EAT STEAK SO THAT IS SAYING ALOT !! My aunt had shrimp. We ordered appetizers. Usually my aunt eats the appetizers and nibbles a little at her meal. Today she at appetizers and finished her meal then proceeded to order strawberry cheesecake for dessert. That was her seal of approval. I haven't seen her eat that much in one sitting in 30 years of us going out to eat. She is picky so the food had to be great in her opinion as well They basically everything was knocked out of the park ! Staff was great and friendly!!! If you want cheap food there is fast food joints down the street. If you want good food and service it's Definitely worth driving out of your way to come and enjoy yourself !! This is my 1st yelp review if that tells you anything!!!!! read more

I had to eat the steak twice to make sure it wasn't luck but this is the best steak I've ever ate at a restaurant. Cooked to perfection and get that dirty rub on it. It's like a semi spicy Cajun rub, it compliments the steak perfectly. Veggies were fresh and actually seasoned. We will be regulars from now on. Service was great and we ate early about 4pm on a Friday night. It gets packed quick! 5 stars!!!!!! read more

Soooooooo yummy! If you go on a weekend, it might be a long wait but we'll worth it! The service is great and makes you feel like you are family. When you go, try the Cajun chicken Alfredo, a extra order of their garlic bread, and for dessert, poke cake! You won't regret it! read more

We came to Lincoln Alabama for a high school soccer tournament. We always love to find the best local places to try. I read some reviews and I knew that Rick's Crossroads Grille was where we were going to eat. For appetizers we started with the boudin balls. They come with a home made hot sauce and it was delicious! Then we had cheese curds and it was one of the beat things I've ever eaten! For our entrees I had the seafood trio fried. Large shrimp and oysters plus catfish and was served with fries and coleslaw. It was very good! The fried foods were seasoned perfect for my taste and nothing was greasy at all. My girlfriend had Tiger Tilapia. It was a large piece of grilled tilapia on top of pasta with grilled shrimp and covered in a Cajun cream sauce. It was amazing and I could have drank a glass of that cream sauce. We were stuffed and the waitress brought over a sample of what they call Stumphole cake. It is a pecan crust with cream cheese caramelized on top. Best dessert I've ever had! Food was great...atmosphere was great and the service was great! If you go, (and it should be soon), ask for Kayla Bean. She made great suggestions and was fun. read more

What a great restaurant located in Lincoln, Alabama. If you are driving through the state, you should eat at this restaurant. My boyfriend and I had the fried crab claws, ribeye with green beans and the fried cat fish with garlic shrimp cajun sauce on a bed of rice. We washed it down with sweet tea. What a delicious meal! The fried foods were skillfully seasoned and fried. It wasn't oily at all. The crab meat was easy to eat off the shell. The steak was cooked well according to my boyfriend's taste. The food came out promptly. Amy is a great waitress too. She is attentive and personable. She has good suggestions. The restaurant is located by the highway. The Apple GPS will take you to a neighborhood but, obviously, it's the wrong place. It is located next to a stoplight, on top of a hill. You can call them if you get lost, they get those calls all the time. The restaurant is a stand alone structure. It is clean. It is decorated with a mixture of music memorabilia and Mardi Gras decors. It is a good establishment located next to a highway that puts out quality food. read more

Great food and good service. I have been to Rick's multiple times and I have had many different dishes and none of them disappoint. The menu features creole cuisine and they offer Abita beer. Rick, who is from Louisiana, is there most nights and can be seen coming out of the kitchen to visit with his patrons. I recommend the meat pies with a cup of their homemade hot sauce on the side and a slice of Stumphole cake with a cup of coffee for desert. The meat pies are pastries stuffed with beef, pork, and rice. The Stumphole cake is reminiscent of creme brûlée as it features a custard topping and a pecan cake base. Their coffee is nice and strong. read more

Nice place to bring the family! Friendly staff, clean homespun decor and good hearty portions. Plan to wait a bit and be patient. Boudin Balls were a treat. They're served with a spicy sauce and they were great. Fried Mushrooms were sliced, battered & friedserved hot with a side of ranch dressing. Yummy. Prime Rib is available Thursday-Saturday and for $29.00-you can't beat it with a stick! Very generous portion with two sides! Too stuffed to try desert. No Appetizers next time. Need desert room. 4/5 ain't bad! read more

The food is good, but the service is awful! We were going pretty regular and it was fine. What changed? The night time manager told us that people who came in about 45-60 minutes after us and got their food was because there was only 2 of them and 6 of us. 3 of the us were less than 2 years old. After waiting on our food for 2 hours, I paid for our drinks and appetizer and we left. The kids were starving. I told her that they could have at least have fed the crying babies. She was so rude and then played the martyr. PATHETIC!! read more
