Fast friendly service. Love these old small corner deli stores. It reminds me of the 90's growing up in Philadelphia and running to the corner store to grab a drink, chips, and or hoagie. This place is definitely great, the hoagies here are fantastic, the old fashioned with blue cheese was a little bit salty and overwhelming, but I still enjoyed it. The best was the American Hoagie. Their chili sauce was okay. If you've lived in Philly, Hoagies are the staple, can't go without one every time I go back to visit. read more

Philly residents speak highly of Ricci's, so my co-workers ordered a hoagie tray from there today for Administrative Professionals Day. They wanted the typical turkey and cheese and chicken cutlet with cheese. I requested a non-meat choice. I opted for the veggie hoagie with eggplant, roasted peppers and sharp cheese. I can't comment on the service here as I did not pick up the order, but they hit it out of the park with the veggie hoagie. Eggplant can be tricky sometimes for sandwiches because it gets soggy, but this was not the case whatsoever. All ingredients tasted fresh. I enjoyed the bread but will probably try their seeded roll next time. Adding this to my go-to list whenever we have out of town visitors! read more

Sandwiches are fresh. The bread and meat are high quality. Nice place to go for a tasty sandwich.

Always on the hunt for a solid sandwich joint and this really fit the bill. It's a bit overwhelming as I wasn't totally sure how the menu worked. Ultimately went with the Old-Fashioned, which comes with prosciutto and soppressata. There's a cheese on it that's also great. It's a TON of meat. Wasn't too sure what else to put on it as I'm not a mayo-fan, but went with tomato, lettuce, olive oil/vinegar, and oregano. It's a decent hoagie. Definitely enough food for two meals. When I got there, the line was manageable, maybe 10 minutes, but when I left it was much longer. It's definitely a skosh more expensive than I would expect (hoagie + soda was around $18). Service was super friendly and people were definitely asking questions, which eased any anxiety I had about asking for suggestions. Plenty of parking in the area so overall a pretty accessible place. No seating so definitely a lunch grab and go kind of place. read more

Can't say enough about Ricci's. This place is one of my favorites in Philly! I'd give this ten stars if I could, and I wish I could give the owner a high five haha. The food is absolutely delicious, some of the best sandwiches I've ever had, hoagie or not. Extra vinegar and oil is the way to go. The people in here are fast, and they make you laugh. Everything moves pretty fast paced in here, and the environment is good. Everyone seems to be in a good mood at Ricci's, and I can only imagine why... they're getting a great meal! read more

I have been going to Ricci's for years and I have never had a bad hoagie. They really load on the deli meat, topping and anything you want. This place has no seating and it's standing room to wait in line only. So, it's get in get what you want and get out so others can do the same. I personally love the thin sliced prosciutto with sharp provolone with an unseeded roll. I can't write much more then this because it's just amazing, simple hoagies read more

I got the old fashioned Italian and I was extremely disappointed. I'm from out of town and love to check out local favorites. Saw a lot of good things about Ricci's but it left me wishing I had Jimmy John's instead. Bread wasn't great, far too much meat. Overall just disappointing. read more

Awesome place great hoagies mouth watering and fresh. Everything sliced thin friendly environment.

ABSOLUTELY DELISH !!!! Was there at grand opening and the line was out the door !!! Now I know why !!!! Soooooo good , great people too !

It was so nostalgic getting one of these the other day. I'm talking 20 yrs ago when I lived in SP nostalgic. So happy I rediscovered this place, I've really missed it. It's fresh and tastes like no other hoagie I've had. Can't wait to go back! read more

3.5 We had a tray of hoagies delivered to an event I attended. One of the hosts is a local South Philly girl, and she raved that this place was the best around. The tray came with a mix of different hoagies, from chicken cutlets to turkey to Italian. I thought the bread was okay, a little dry. I didn't get a chance to try the chicken cutlets one, but I did try the others and they were nice. Were they any better than any other kind of hoagie that this city is so famous for? I don't know. They were good, just not the kind that was so memorable that the name of this place would be embedded in my memory to recommend if someone asked me for the best hoagie in town. read more

Ricci's has amazing hoagies - truly Philly hoagies! It was everything that I was craving.

I loved everything about Ricci's. Service is quick and the workers are friendly. There is no seating as it is a no frills, classic deli. The hoagie bread to meat ratio was perfect. Only complaint is that I wish they were open later. I can't wait to come back the next time I am in Philly. I would highly recommend Ricci's to others. 20/10! read more

Great hoagie but $18 is insane. Idk what the margins are on hoagies but this is a classic no frills south Philly hoagie shop so idk what's going on. I kind of get a ribeye cheesesteak costing $18 nowadays because of the cost of steak but not a cold cuts. read more

Love this place. Best Italian hoagie I've had in the city - packed with meats and toppings, tons of flavors that go together perfectly, awesome seeded roll. Atmosphere inside is second to none - everything is sliced fresh, staff talks you through the order, great local feel.

So I was craving some hoagies and seeing how I live in California I logged on to Goldbelly and found this place. I saw that they have been in business since 1920 so I knew they had to be good. I placed an order for 2 hoagies. I got the Punisher and the old fashioned. And let me tell you, OMG!!! Were they delish. Came with all the toppings bagged separately. And don't get me started on the bread. It was so incredibly soft and chewy. I am MOST definitely going to order from them again. read more

Ricci's Hoagies - The punisher. - Sandwiches Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Well worth the ride! This is a fairly small place, not much moving room but operations here are pretty simple. There isn't a typical ordering counter, just a line that swings around the deli. Once you're up, you place your order with whoever is taking orders and you get to watch as your sandwich is being made which I really like because you know exactly what you're getting before the sandwich is wrapped up. Definitely looking forward to returning. read more

Simply the best Italian Hoagie in the city of Philadelphia!! Sharp provolone & prosciutto!!

Simply put, amazing. I've been to Ricci's at least five time sense moving from NY to Philadelphia. There is NO COMPETITION. Ricci's is the Chick-fil-A of hoagies! Each hoagie begins with the softest & freshest bread I've ever had from a sub shop. You have several options for cheese and meats to fill your perfect sandwich. I recently had the Buffalo chicken with pepper jack cheese. Topped with banana peppers, pickles, sweet peppers, salt, pepper, oil, tomatoes, and red hot flakes. They also don't skimp on providing quality and quantity. Accompanied with a bag of chips! *chefs kiss * I've brought friends here and they all have the same positive reaction. The staff here are so polite and helpful. You can feel their good energy in the food and they serve you with smile. I'd recommend them every time to anyone seeking a filling meal. read more

I had not been in Ricci's for awhile but it had always been one of my favorite spots for a hoagie. I went there on Wednesday expecting the same as I had gotten in the past. First of all when I walked in there were two lines. One had no one in line and the other had about 5 people. I asked what was the difference and no one seemed to know. So I went to the empty one and ordered my sandwich. It was the worst I had ever eaten period. I could not eat it. It was terrible. I was extremely surprised. I would not recommend Ricci's to anyone. There may be something going on that I was not aware of but never again. I live to far away from there to take that chance and spend my money. read more

Order called in and not ready. Went to location in Fairmount. Taste of hoagie good but hardly any meat or stuffing in the bread. Disappointed due to reviews given on social media. Think the OG location might hold to higher standards. Can't complete with other hoagies in Philly area to for price. read more

Ricci's Hoagies is an iconic and long established neighborhood institution in the City of Brotherly Love, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Ricci's has been in business since 1920 and any business that can not only survive, but flourish after hitting a century mark, has to be doing something right. Hoagies ate a Philadelphia staple and definitely a food of the working man. A hoagie allows someone to eat something substantial in a quick an efficient manner. You don't have to worry about a fork and knife to help you in eating it. I heard somewhere that a sandwich was a favorite amongst truckers because they could eat it while driving. I do not know about the authenticity of the story, but it makes sense. But I think what allowed hoagies (or subs, grinders, whatever you want to call them) to survive is that they also taste great. I can say that a hoagie is one of my favorite meals. It is a perfect culmination of bread, meats, cheeses, veggies, vinegar, oil and spices and has been embraced worldwide as a lunch (or donner) favorite. Ricci's do hoagies right and as it continues to get handed down through the generations, I hope that they continue to flourish. So, after over a hundred years, the community still loves Ricci's and after eating here, you will understand why. My go-to hoagie has always been an Italian and they do their Italian right. It is a substantial meal at a fair price and it is something that you will return to Ricci's again and again for. As Ricci's enters into their second century, they still produce an outstanding product. With them continuing to do so, I can see them making it another century and beyond. read more

My go to spot for hoagies in Philly. I've tried a few other place around south Philly and this is the best one imo. The people are always welcoming and friendly. I order the classic Italian hoagie every time and they are very generous with the hoagie. There can be a wait during rush hour and often times it is hard to find parking around the area. My cousin is from LA and I brought her here once, she loved it. Highly reckoned trying this place out! read more
