Description:  As you might gather from the name, Dick's Last Resort is intentionally a bit rough around the edges. It's like a theme restaurant where the theme centers on sassy, curt attitudes and good-natured jibes. Indeed, one suspects crabs appear on the menu only to allow for their pun value: "I got crabs at Dicks Last Resort..." and on and on. Dick's offers good eats at a good value; buckets, not plates, come brimming with food as high as the tall glasses of beer. The place is impeccably clean, with a touch of grit in the form of corrugated metal walls and rough-hewn boards. Live music at night draws a college crowd.
