Rick’s on the River Tampa Fl
After a day in Busch Gardens with the family we headed for Rick’s on the River for dinner. A place you will never find by accident, as it is somewhat tucked away in not the nicest area of town, however we had a great time. Being English we sat outside over looking the river and after a long day in the park we should have sought air conditioning in the bar/restaurant area which had a great atmosphere, almost sports bar like.
Being in Florida oysters are a must and 12 soon became 24 as they were that good (Rick’s will be in my coming soon Top 5 best Oyster league). My wife had a few but I finished most before an OK fish dinner, forget the main course, the oysters and cold beer make this place the “must do” it is. Since my visit there is now an oyster bar, I will check that out on my next visit as I will definitely be back, great place….
