Chef Ricks Ultimately Fine Foods

"Flavorful. Big portions. Best food in town. Will go back and try the other savory items on the menu."

"A mixture of Mexican/southern food. They season everything really well, but it may be too much for your preference. I really like the jambalaya and the dessert, but the food is heavy. I’d go again depending on the occasion"

"Chef Rick's is a great place to eat, especially in Santa Maria. It's quite quirky, and I've never been to another restaurant quite like it. They also have a good selection of vegan items, but my favorite is the vegan crab cake."

"From the moment you walk in the service is excellent! The coconut shrimp was such a treat. We had not seen shrimp this large in a long time, cooked to perfection, and served with an awesome sauce. Then, the grilled chicken "sandwich" we had split was so unique. It's hard to consider it in the category of a sandwich.. wow, the flavors, the textures. The broccoli slaw served here is something to try also. Of course, save room for the decadent desserts, Even the decaf coffee was rich with flavor. Chef Ricks is not only excellent food (some of the finest found) it's an experience."

"Great date restaurant. Came here with my wife for a evening meal together and had a good time. Impressed with the quality and excellent seasoning of the food. Chef Ricks is not afraid to get fancy with the spices!"
