    My second time at Ricky's café, I had breakfast both times and Liked the food they serve you . Great customer service Enjoy portion of food Decent prices Organized interior Will come back again 10/10 recommended

    I want to like this location - I do... but sometimes their dine in service is slow. Ricky's chicken strips are my go to (perfectly crispy and tender)! The reason for rating is anytime we dine in it's a bit of a drag: once, on our hour lunch the food took 45 minutes to come - we all ordered chicken strips - had 5 minutes to inhale and then the rest to settle our bill and head back to work. We do take out often, but I wish their BLTC Salads were larger portioned!!! It is so yummy but at 19$ and in a small container I'm always left unsatisfied. It's a 3 on yelp but a 3.5 if I could give half stars. Looks like they're getting ready to make it a Ricky's/ Famoso though like the rest of the franchise!

    Tomato basil soup
    Henry C.

    We came here during the later part of the evening and wanted to eat a late dinner. I came to this place before during breakfast and had a pretty extensive breakfast/brunch type menu. This location is close to the SOLO district - by Brentwood and very close to the Whole Foods, Skytrain and quite of a busy area. Parking around this area can be a challenge, but during the later evenings It was easy to find. When I and my partner entered the restaurant it was quite slow during the evening 8pmish. I believe that there were just a handful of seats. We ordered the radical bacon cheeseburger with a side of fries, tomato basil soup and also the dinner size chicken tenders and fries. The issue here is that our waitress was a little forgetful unfortunately she had to come back to reconfirm the order. She had mentioned that it was "busy" because there was a table of 16 that did not put in a reservation - which was her reasoning. We ask for some side plates, water and napkins but she had forgotten. Later on, when we got our dinner - We ate more than half of the dinner and then she decided to check back on us. Still the restaurant was not busy at all. In all honestly I think this server was new. I'm short the food is decent but servers needs to be trained a little better even if one is new. Manager needs to be aware.

    Classic Clubhouse on sourdough with chicken tortilla soup! Delish! :)

    I was waiting for this restaurant to open for the longest time! I kept seeing "under construction" signs for this business at the Solo district and now it's finally open. This is another business we will probably frequent often as it is so close to our place. Yay for laziness!! I got the classic Clubhouse on sourdough. Love that there is such a great variety of options for sides. I got the chicken tortilla soup for no added $$ which was awesome. Yummy and good on a budget! The Clubhouse came with three triangles of sandwich. I was too full after two of the triangles so took the third one home. Service was good and everyone was so friendly. I will definitely be back, especially to try their breakfast which also looks awesome!

    I saw a $10 off glance pay promo for Ricky's at this location and decided it was an easy decision to skip cooking and to head here for dinner! The promo ends on Sept 24th so you still have time to head there and use the app! It was my first time visiting a Ricky's restaurant and I was very pleased with the great service and food they have. I order smaller portion of the turkey meal and my husband ordered the mushroom burger. Both were really good and a good size for a quick family style diner. They waitress was really nice, constantly checked on us and explained the promo clearly. In the end we each paid only under $5 for our meal after the promo! Such a great deal!

    Grilled cheese with tomato soup!
    Mike K.

    Ricky's has recently opened it's doors at the Solo location in Brentwood. We decided to give them a try for lunch since we live next door and are always looking for more food options. Walking in, I saw that this location isn't as large as a typical Ricky's. They have bar style seating, a number of tables and five full booths by the window. Since all the booths were full, we were seated at one of the smaller tables. The staff all seemed super friendly, and well-prepared despite all being new to serving at this location. I ordered the grilled-cheese & bacon sandwich with tomato basil soup and my wife ordered a club sandwich. The grilled-cheese was pretty good. They melt cheese on the pan while frying the sandwich which causes a crusty cheese "wing" which is a nice twist for a traditional sandwich. The tomato basil soup was surprising as well as it contained tomato chunks and wasn't just a pure cream based soup. My wife said her sandwich was delicious as well! Upon leaving, the wait staff continued to be super friendly, asking us how everything was and hoping we had a good meal. If they can continue this service, I'm sure this location will be quite successful!

    Philly cheesesteak sanddwich
    Fiopo F.

    This place was surprisingly good. Although it serves similar food to Ricky's Country Restaurant on Boundary Rd. , the food here is a notch above. The BLTC salad comes with a mini loaf of garlic toast that was more than decent. The club sandwich was a few rungs above average. The steak was cheap and tasty (according to my son - an avid foodie-in-training). The cheesesteak sandwich was almost considered good. For the prices they charged and the quality of food they put out, I would rate them 3.64536 stars. In other words: higher than PI

    A broad variety of food to choose from. No waiting for a seat but we had to wait for quite a while for our food to come. We had a great breakfast and a good service. The prices are good for what you get.

It was fairly quiet with a few customers at around 9am. The place looked bright and welcoming. The baked goods looked delicious and I spied many pistachio items. There was even a honey cake! I missed having that. As I am off sweets for a while now (everything tasted overly sweet to me), I settled for a bacon cheese croissant and regular coffee. Order and pay at the counter, they will bring the food over. The croissant was nice and flaky. The coffee was also good, not tart or acidic at all. The cream in coffee made it pretty smooth. What made it 5-star was the vibe and service/owner/customers. This place has the friendly neighborhood chill vibe where it is a cross between "Friends" and "Cheers". Shortly after I sat down, the cafe began to fill up. I saw a guy got up from his table to move to a smaller one when a bigger group came in on his own accord. He then told the group to take his table. The owner knows the regular customers by names and sight. The other regulars know each other as I saw people stopping at other tables greeting and chatting with each other. They even pulled up chairs and have an impromptu gabfest. They were not loud at all. What a nice thing to witness. Not a soulless cafe where customers are plugged into their laptops or with headphones. I will need to come back again to try the other stuff. Plus I'm pretty surprised at how good the regular coffee is. Most places' drip coffee has a sour/acidic aftertaste and this doesn't.

Of course their main thing is TEA! I had four different types and I was always blown away by it's magical flavor! to the extend that it made me hate other teas! it ruined me :S The Joint also have a ME grocery corner, the good side is that the place doesn't smell like other regular ME grocery shops :D very neat I have to say! They also have Sufi bookstore upstairs and they offer *free* SUFI meditation session every Wednesday @7.30 for 30 min. I tried the sessions twice, a small group of 7-10 from diverse ethnic backgrounds with nice music that they call "TASABEEH" and then you can have some tea before you leave. Really liked the place! check it out, esp the top floor. I gave it 4, though I thought it's more of 4.5 but I think the seating area could be improved to earn the full mark!

The space was calm but welcoming and not too busy despite being around 730am. I decided to order the ham and egg croissant sandwich along with a hot chocolate.

To our surprise, the staff actually brought over our orders when they were ready, insisting that we wait at our table rather than coming up to the counter to collect our orders ourselves. This was above and beyond what they needed to do, and they were incredibly friendly.

The eggs were fluffy and light and the ham was flavourful, but not overly salty. The hot chocolate was delicious and was the perfect way to end my day.
