    Great food. Salads are large. Not a “traditional “ Mexican restaurant. No tacos. Enchiladas are great and a large portion. Outside seating around water features. Service is outstanding!

    Always do a great job at their holiday buffets. Our servers were friendly and professional and kept the mimosas flowing! Top quality food and so many choices for everyone. I think this is our 5th holiday celebrating at Rita’s. Book early!
