It has been redistricted.

I know. It used to be even more Democrat, having given President Bush only 36% in 2004. As redrawn, I think it gave President Bush 39% in 2004, but maybe I’m wrong and it gave him 40% or 41%; in any event, it is a heavily Democrat seat, and it would take a small miracle to beat even as annoying of a Democrat as DWS (unlike in NC-02, where Renée Ellmers had a good base of Bush voters from which to gather a majority against Bob Ethridge).

Horrible service

by Jen (1 review)

Im a food lover and know many good restaurants and this grill has good food but their big problem is their employees, their management are terrible, some guy named Octavio and the other one Manny to into an argue with my husband were he was insulted and threatened by both and at the end we called the police. Long story short we were a table of 15 people including kids and we told the server we didn’t want the sauce because it tasted bad and to brings us another one, at the end they ended up charging $2.00 for a small side of sauce and we didn’t agree to pay it because it was not consumed but the manager came up to my husband with an attitude and screaming and even call me stupid when I asked to respect us. I wont ever visit these restaurant again in my life since it was the worst experience ever.

Old menu, old prices

by Joyce (1 review)

The food is ok. Occasionally order take out from Rickey’s. Don’t go by the prices on the posted menu. Most of the items offered are the same, but the prices are considerably higher, portions are the same. Ex: Chicken finger dinner of 4 pcs has gone up from 6.95 to 8.95. It’s really only a fair price. The quality is average. This review is for the Silver Lakes location. I’m not crazy about this restaurant, but I don’t totally dislike it either. My best advice is to beware & don’t expect too much.

The place to go on Friday night when it’s been one of THOSE weeks

by Ashley and Luis (41 reviews)

Have you ever had a week at work where you just can’t catch a break? And then you have to pay your bills, balance your checkbook, clean the house, go to the grocery store, take care of family...and Friday night rolls around and you still feel so far behind, and you think “I just want to kick back and relax for 5 minutes!!” Well this is THAT kind of place. No, they are not going to rush to take your drink orders. No, they are not going to serve you anything beyond bar food. But the music will be decent, they’re open late, and they have a great special on a pitcher of beer and a plate of wings, and the booths are dark and quiet. So when you have just dealt with too much all week and want to relax with a beer and a snack and some “grown up” time, this is a great place to go if you are close by. We get the medium garlic wings and a pitcher of beer. Makes for a great, relaxing night.

Ehhh

by SKT (27 reviews)

Let me start off by saying that I reallllly hate driving and try to not stray too far from home. So I was really excited when we bought our home that everything we need is within a mile or two of the house. I was also excited that Rickey’s was so close to the house since my hubby loves to go out for wings and beer on Friday nights. We went to this restaurant about 4 times and we finally gave up on it. While the servers were very friendly, and the wings were really good, the rest of the menu is so bland and boring. Frozen Lean Cuisine meals are more flavorful. It was consistently mediocre, for the same price we’ll drive the extra mile and head to Quarterdeck when we want wings/burgers/beer.

over it

by itsjustme (1 review)

I have never written an on line review before, but this had to have been the worst experience ever. I had given up and stopped going to the older Pines location because of the horrendous service, but had high hopes for this one. We were the only patrons in the entire place, had to wait 40 minutes for our food which came out cold and had to ask for drink refills. Do not waste your time or money- and trust me, they wont care of you are there or not.

Been going there for a few years now, service has been good but don’t go on weekends at primetime it gets very crowded and does take a bit longer. Food has been decent and hot lol, our kids always eat the ultimate nachos! I love it there and staff knows us pretty well, but menu is in need of updating badly. Whenever we don’t feel like cooking it’s only like 5 min from our house,( nice backup)

I have given up on Rickeys

by Halfhill (1 review)

Rickys is either good or bad. July 4th they were awful. My Daughter and I went specifically for wings. We have been eating there for 9 years. We were served charred burnt wings that crackled and crunched when bitten. The white meat was dried. The cook said that is how they are cooked and refused to replace them. We chose to leave. Out bill for not eathing lunch was $13.99. That was 2 sodas and a small bowl of chowder. Go figure!

Neighborhood Dive

by Louis Rosas-Guyon (12 reviews)

I like Rickey’s but it is a dive. It’s not the kind of place you find sleaze drunks passed out and sloppy, but it kind of looks like that. It’s the kind of place you recognize from those 1970’s Clint Eastwood country movies sans bikers.
The food is greasy and about what you’d expect. I like it because the food is fast, hot and consistent. We’ve had lunch here a few times and I have no problem coming back.

poor service/indifferent management

by K (1 review)

They were NOT busy, a weeknight. Had to wait 10+ minutes for our server to take drink orders, almost that long for her to bring back and then missing a coke, got that after sevearl minutes. Finished drinks, she still had not come back, had to go to bar ourselves to get another drink. Appetizer then came. Food came well after appetizer was finished and while still hot it was obvious had been sitting for a while, besides fries being soggy. Another server had to be flagged down to take back fries. After they FINALLY came back by yet again another server (almost 2/3 done with rest of food) it was even more obvious the first batch had been sitting for a while since those were so hot and crispy. First server never came back to ask how things were. She finally comes to bring bill, asked her for a couple of boxes, she comes back with 1 even though what was left on my plate alone filled 1 box. Husband is terribly upset by now at slow service so goes to bar to pay bill and tells bartender... more »
