Description
Transitioning from its original run as Ricardo, this iteration features walls lined with local art and an open kitchen that adds to the room's energy. The menu extends to plates like lamb chops and shrimp and grits, paired with passion fruit margaritas. The vibe is slightly upscale yet celebratory, making it a frequent backdrop for local birthdays and graduations.
