Ricky T's Bar & Grille

The atmosphere is lively and the food and drinks are good! I went during lunch time around 3:00 and it was not too busy and only one side was open. It’s really a bar that raps around. There’s inside and outside bar seating and some regular tables outside and inside as well. They have a live band daily at 5:00 pm and 8:00 pm. It’s a great place for food and drinks when on Treasure Island. Locals love it because it’s not too touristy.

Music is too loud inside but great vibes fast service! Recommend eating outside. Love the food. So good and not over crowded. Underrated place must go. Get the fried sea food plate and Cajun fries. And the house marg!!!!

The pizza? A complete letdown, like a bad joke that falls flat. And that Mojo Cuban? Calling it a disaster is an insult to actual disasters—it was more like beaver droppings on stale bread, devoid of any semblance of dressing. Seriously, no lettuce, no tomato? That's not a Cuban sandwich; that's a culinary crime. The cheese on the pizza felt like it was made from recycled plastic—where's the flavor? I half-expected to feel queasy after that meal. The staff were friendly enough, but let's be real: nice people can’t save a kitchen from itself. Absolute disgrace.

Local bar and grill. Located next to multiple bars and restaurants. Walking distance from Walgreens. Staff is nice. No draft beers. Indoor and outdoor seating

Everything about Ricky T's Bar and Grille makes it an awesome experience whether you're there for the food or live music. There is available parking everywhere so no worries there regardless of the crowd size. This is a must visit Bar on the south barrier island if you're in the region. The vibe alone really gives the that feel of the central west coast Florida beach atmosphere. This Bar also is great whether you're alone or with a bus load of friends.

We had two pizzas, buffalo chicken and a pepperoni and mushroom pizza. Both crispy thin crust, delicious!! Next time I will ask for more pep and mushrooms but still was delicious!! Trevor our waiter, is a cool dude!

Lynn was amazing! Very tentative and offered lots of suggestions on the menu. I will definitely be back. The threesome was more filling then we expected. We got the shrimp basket with cheese fries along hot chicken sandwich with the savory Cajun fries.

We had our first visit back since the hurricane reopening. The place looks great! We sat at the bar and Taylor was the bartender and took great care of us. The drinks are great. The menu has some new items. Clam chowder and the soup of the day was gumbo. We loved both. My all time favorite for years has been the Italian Beef Sliders which I ordered. Still good but for the same old price of $15.59 now you only get 2 with less beef instead of 3. That's a little rich for me. We live in the neighborhood and and my wife jokingly called it another new "beach tax". I know...rebuilding after a hurricane isn't cheap! I'll switch to the Italian Beef Philly for the same $15.59.

This was very close to our hotel. We originally stopped in as a joke because my friend's brother in law is named Rick T and they have a sign from the restaurant at their home. Little did we know, that it would be a crowd favorite. First win - GF items! We started with ding dang shrimp (think bang bang shrimp for Indiana peeps) and mussels. I scored the gluten free grouper nuggets and they were so good! It's a great spot for people watching and they also have a bar and music at times. This will definitely be a repeat visit when I come back. (The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was our server. She seemed extremely annoyed by us, but we just had a couple extra questions due to allergy items.)

Stumbled upon Ricky T's walking around Treasure Island Beach. We heard the live music and were immediately drawn in. The band playing was amazing. Local band @seranation based in St.Pete. Entire crowd was singing, dancing, & drinking. Spring break & late night party vibes all the way for this fun spot at night. We went back for breakfast today and the food and cocktails were delicious. Our server Cheyenne was very pleasant, friendly, & attentive. Definitely recommend sitting outside.

The food was excellent! The only complaint was regarding the tartar sauce. It tasted as if it was out of a jar with too much mayonnaise but everything else was terrific! We ordered Grouper tacos, shrimp and fries, grilled chicken sandwich, Fish and chips, Balsamic dressing salad plus chips w/ salsa and guac. There was a party of 6 of us and the ambiance is a bar atmosphere which was great with plenty of TVs and "live" music going on outside, it's very loud so hard to have a group conversation inside. The service was absolutely phenomenal! Made the whole experience even better. Great stop for the beach.

Nice spot to stop for a drink and a snack. This place is located by nearby shops so we needed a little resting point before we continued to shop.

Ricky T's in Treasure Island is an absolute gem, and I can't help but rave about Paul, the epitome of customer service behind the bar. Paul's exceptional skills extend beyond mixing drinks - he's the maestro orchestrating an unforgettable experience. His genuine connection with patrons is unparalleled; it's as if he's known everyone at the bar forever. Not only is Paul a master mixologist, but he's also a cleanliness aficionado. He goes the extra mile by meticulously wiping off beer tops and donning gloves when crafting cocktails with fresh fruit. The result? A spotless, inviting atmosphere that reflects Paul's commitment to excellence. What sets Paul apart is his ability to make anyone feel like a local, regardless of how recently they've landed on the island. His welcoming demeanor and warm conversation create an atmosphere that transcends the typical bar experience. Paul's not just a bartender; he's a hospitality magician, turning each visit into a memorable journey. In a world where exceptional service can be hard to find, Ricky T's and Paul stand out as a shining example of what it means to go above and beyond. Whether you're a regular or a first-time visitor, Paul ensures that your time at Ricky T's is nothing short of extraordinary.

Simply amazing. Brunch is definitely a win on Friday-Sunday. Will not disappoint!!!!!!!!

Came here last year on our vacation and remembered the food & service was excellent. The vibe is fun and seems like a local hotspot! We stopped in last night and it didn't disappoint! We had street tacos, roast beef sliders & fries, pizza with spicy sauce (yum), and seafood salad. All excellent choices! The highlight was the Blueberry Yum Yum shot, I love blueberries and this was delicious! The only watch out for is parking, we had to pay over $27 to park, there is little to no parking, walk if you can! It's worth it.

Ambience is cool. Cocktails are flowing! Service was great. Everyone worked as a team. Amy was an amazing bartender. We had the Italian and the grouper sandwiches. Truffle fries are to die for! 5 Stars! n.b. My sister and I ended up here at the beginning of March. We came in late and they had a fish special that was to die for! I wish I took picture back then.

This is a fun location with great service. There is an indoor section and outdoor section with live music and fans every where. The clam chowder was amazing. The salads are enough for 2 people. I was disappointed in the Grouper tacos, but our table had mixed reviews on those. So it's more to taste for sure. A lot of people had the pizza, but being from Chicago it was something I n3ver order when otlut of town.

Typical fried food as to be expected for the area. Entertainment is good when they finally show up. Now the best part, waitress tried to keep our credit card. Nice try. You suck.

Stopped in for a quick lunch and I grabbed the Grouper tacos. I asked for them fried instead of blackened. The tacos were stuffed with fish and were delicious. My daughter got the fish and chips from the kids menu and they were incredible. It's a Very generous portion. I also got a cup of the Clam Chowder and it was too thick, I couldn't finish it. Our server was named Evelyn and she was PHENOMENAL. She explained all the local beers and the menu with great detail. Very impressive. They also have a nice outdoor seating area.

Love this place!! Great food, good drinks, and fast service! Plenty of parking in the area as well, so we walked to the beach after lunch. Love that their patio is sort of an indoor/outdoor vibe and it's easy to choose how much noise & shade you want. Music is louder near the bar but much quieter at the outer tables.

We went here twice on our recent vacation, the first night my friend had a chicken sandwich that was fatty and just not tasty. I had the scallop appetizer and that wasn't great either. We went back as we were told that their burgers were good. I agree with that, the Ricky T's burger was really good. I did like that they had 3 separate bar areas though.

What a hopping place as well as staff working their butts off all with a personal experience. We just had appetizers and they were great. Ding Dang Shrimp was very filling and had excellent flavor. We also had the nachos and the buffalo chicken bites. There were a lot of interesting people there. Drunk butts but funny. The restaurant is mainly outside and we really enjoyed it.

Salad was good people were nice. Local bar vibes in a great spot! I would go back, want to try more things on the menu. Server was really nice and answered all questions we had, we really liked her :)

Food is amazing! 5 stars for their food and service. The reason I am giving a 3 star rating is because of their ridiculous tip "suggestion". What a joke. The options are 20%, 30% and 50%. Bad customer experience with this tip "suggestions".

Sooo Ricky T's was a random find while taking my friend to the beach. Definitely has a local vibe with friendly people and staff. There was live music and everyone having a good ol time. The food was very good and filling. Our server was super sweet and fun. There are plenty of TVs for anyone looking to watch sports. I recommend it to anyone looking for a chill beach vibe and good food. What was ordered: Loaded nachos / Florida Cobb Salad / Buffalo Wings Loaded Nachos = that's how you top nachos! Florida Cobb Salad = two people should share Buffalo Wings = OMG YES!

The food is amazing! We have had everything from pizza to seafood to salad and everything is absolutely amazing. The live music and drinks are also fantastic and make for an all-around great time. Highly recommend!

Awesome fresh margaritas and grouper nuggets! Great service and outdoor area! We will definitely be back!

Real good! Try it out! Good bar food, good service, good atmosphere, walking distance from about anywhere in treasure island.

This spot was right across the street from our hotel so we stopped for late lunch/early dinner with the kids. The rum punch was DELICIOUS. I also had an icy cold beer afterwards. We ordered the blackened grouper sandwich and sadly found out they were out of grouper. Our server suggested the shrimp tacos as an alternative and they were pretty darned good. We also ordered blackened fries with honey mustard dipping sauce because this just sounded so good. That was just ok for me....tasted almost more like cajun spice maybe? Anyways, service was great, drinks were great, food was solid! Definitely recommend.

Loudest restaurant/bar we've eaten at in a long time (maybe ever). Food was very good. Server wasn't very friendly but got the job done. Lots of people smoking on or around outside patios. $150 for 6 adults and 3 kids (without any alcohol).

After a long day of traveling this spot was perfect to grab a bite late night. Tampa bay lightening was playing so it was a bit loud but lively in a good way. I order the fried shrimp and it was decent. Nothing spectacular but not bad at all. The seafood pasta was really good though! We couldn't even finish half of it. Waitress was great. She didn't even have to write a thing down and everything was great. Perfect spot for a late night meal down by the beach.

Tried Ricky T's for lunch. Service was great. We were seated quickly. The menu has nice selection. The food was great. If you are in the area, try it. If you are a local, hopefully you patronize them often!

My husband and I drove by this place right on Gulf Blvd on Saturday evening on the way back to our hotel, and it was PACKED. We ended up going there Sunday evening and it was once again full. I thought it was full because it's on Treasure Island, and I was expecting greasy American fare, but it was SO GOOD! The grouper is locally sourced and they have a lot of grouper dishes. I had the grouper fish tacos, which I highly recommend, and a glass of pinot grigio. Someone else at the table had Ding Dang shrimp, which I also highly recommend. There was live music, but it was not crazy loud. It was a man with his guitar, very friendly and folksy. Our server was excellent. I didn't get her name, but she was so friendly and attentive. The crowd was very mixed: younger people, older people and families with little kids. It is clearly a local favorite and I can see why. Please visit if you're ever on Treasure Island or in St. Pete.

Crazy busy evening a few weeks ago and we still got great service. Seated ultra quick! Food was out quickly and was 100% as ordered. Tacos are recommended...

Dug our server was cool, he was attentive and fun. Our food came out super fast and the vibe was nice. My wife LOVED the French dip sliders and I enjoyed the nachos. Cool spot, fast service.

Went with a group of four and were able to snag a table outside. It was very busy and had love entertainment. The menu was limited, but food was good. I think it was a little overpriced. Waiter was great, super speedy service! Would recommend to anyone in the area!

Absolutely the worst meal the four of us ever had dining out. Avoid this place at all costs

We need a small bite to eat before our messages so we found this place it supposed to be Mexico food? But we went with seafood The mussels In a Cajun Creole garlic wine butter sauce absolutely delicious

I've seen some negative reviews about the food at Ricky T's, which honestly surprises me, because the food I ate yesterday was phenomenal. Not to mention that there's wonderful live music, a fun crowd and pleasant bartenders. I loved the garlic muscles. The portion size was far bigger than I anticipated.My fiancé ate my garlic bread, because I was satisfied with the amazing muscles by themselves. My fiancé enjoyed the fish tacos and sweet potato fries. The bathrooms are clean and easily accessible, and there's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, with little to no wait times (in my experience, yesterday being my second time at this establishment). I would like to thank Rocio for her amazing service. She was so beautiful, friendly and excellent at recommending menu items. She hav us wonderful service with a smile, and she was prompt and upbeat. Will definitely be back to see her!

The live music and outdoor space is awesome! We just ordered drinks and wanted to enjoy the music and sun setting. The Miami Vice was good. It is definitely more of a slushee with syrup added then a typical frozen drink. There was also no wait which was nice. It is definitely a cool spot if you want some good music, a spot to sit outside, and a good crowd! They also had free parking which was amazing! The parking is limited but check both the side and the front of Ricky Ts.

From all the restaurants in Treasure island, this one is the best. There is plenty of parking available and the service is great. The outdoor sitting and the lights make this place a great bar to drink and eat after a busy day at the beach. Clamp chowder was fantastic, best one I had outside Boston and it had plenty of meat. The fried cod basket was huge and the fish was fried to perfection.

Great atmosphere to watch a game, listen to music, and have a bite to eat. We discovered the hot Italian beef pizza on the first night of our trip. We had it several times. Amazing!

The breakfast potatoes were the best in the area. The service was slow but it's slow everywhere. The ambiance was ok. It was on the sidewalk but they had it pretty well blocked off from the road.

So impressed with this little place. Sitting at the bar. A bartender, paul... is attentive and awesome peri ordered the shrimp appetizer. Incredible. Huge shrimp. It was the bartenders recommendation. Can't wait to come back

First time visiting Madeira beach and Ricky T's. The food and service were great! I had the shrimp dinner which was grilled and the clam chowder and both were delicious!! Friends had the pizza and shrimp basket. Generous portions for both shrimp dinners and tasty pizza. Definitely recommend!

Loved the live music the day we visited. I think there's live music daily from 4-8PM in the outdoor seating area. We visited between lunch and dinner and enjoyed Caesar salads, Guinness and Tito's vodka with orange juice. Great vibe in this venue.

Great place, great food and fantastic drinks and service! We stayed in the area for two days and came here 3 times-super fun and don't forget your 'Drink up b*tches' shirts!

This spot is hopping. Open late - came on Friday and it was packed. Definitely check out nachos if you're hungry. It's a massive portion - covered in cheese and beans. The Cuban was delicious also.

A cool little bar style restaraunt with indoor and outdoor seating. Why the 3 stars? Well the seafood platter I chose had shrimp, scallops, and fish with Cole slaw and fries. Sounds amazing right? Well the shrimp was but the scallops were pea sized and had no taste and the fish was straight batter and no fish. I also ordered an alcoholic beverage from there list and one sip was enough to realize it was extremely watered down, like mainly water. Overall it's not a bad place to go but for the expensive price of $100 between my wife and I it probably is not for the money savors.

Ricky T's has the BEST blackened grouper in the area. I have tried several. Thanks for a great experience.

It had a great vibe outside. I was underwhelmed with my blackened grouper sandwich. The appetizer with the jalapeño was very yummy! Even though this wasn't my favorite place - I would go back because The vibe and enough drinks to choose from on draft.

We walked along Gulf Blvd. looking for a lunch spot. My wife noticed a pretty good crowd outside, usually a good sign, It did not disappoint. Definitely a local spot. We sat inside, wanting the AC. Our server was the nicest guy I think we have ever met in service industry. We started with rum runners and salsa and chips. Drinks were very good. I ordered the Ricky T's Fish Sandwich. Fried cod, with Cole slaw. My wife had the fish tacos, I think it was also Cod. 3 tacos, Both Dishes were $13.99. We both thought our lunch was delicious. My wife's friend met us late, so we ordered 3 more rumrunners to go, and a home made clam chowder for her. She enjoyed her chowder as well. Great lunch place, glad we stopped in.

Good was good, service was solid, place is a bit cramped and warm inside but otherwise a good experience

Last night I was enjoying The Soul Circus Cowboys. I was out of my seat for ten seconds. My jacket was behind my seat. I was sitting there for maybe 2 hours. This guy next to me tells me the seat is for his son. He tries to take the seat away from me. He also threatened me. The drunk, pathetic manager and horrendous bartenders side with him. Totally uncalled for. 4 of their pathetic thugs follow me out. ....

First time visiting and it was good! The Hubby and I decided to do a little day drankin, so we started here at 10:30 with jelly donut & chocolate tequila shots. In the words of Rick Flair: Woooooooo!!!!! I moved on to a Mexican and then a green tea drank. The caesar salad was delicious as well. Fresh lettuce (no brown leaves) and lots of cheese! The buffalo chicken & cheese bombs were the !!!! My husband had the Italian beef sandwich, which he finished off, so I'm gonna give it a thumbs up. Great place with lots of dranks and food to try. We will be back!!!

My wife and I go to Treasure Island every winter. Ricky T's is a must. Good pizza, great wings, and the outdoor bar is awesome for watching sporting events.

Well, everyone seems to love this place. A crossed street from beach. View is of gulf blvd. I live in neighborhood and it's always packed. Breakfast pizza is awesome. Food and drinks are a little pricey in my opinion.

Their Sunday brunch from 9 to 12 was the best!! Great breakfast reasonably priced and not your mainstream place to eat for breakfast which was cool to me. When a worker overheard my partner asking g for hot sauce, he brought over three samples to try of the hot sauces that they make and sell. That alone made me say this place was great. Attention to detail...attention to the customer...is key and this place nailed it. Awesome job guys!! We will be back!
