What a great little restaurant! The parking lot was full (good sign in a Tuesday morning) and the place was packed with locals (another good sign). The blueberry pancakes were full of blueberries and very good. They should bottle and sell the home made salsa, wow!, so tasty! The waitress was super nice, friendly and kept our coffees full. If you are traveling through town and looking for a place I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

If you like restaurants that serve old-timey feel-good food, this place is worth the look! We had breakfast; everything from the food to the service was very good. There's outside seating as well. Located on a street right off the highway! read more

Super (overly) friendly service. Seated quickly with food coming out quickly. Seems a little pricey for Yuma as the food was just ok. Chicken Fried steak (from frozen) and eggs was just ok. Biscuits and gravy ok as well. Not sure why everyone raves about the gravy, it was pedestrian at best. We've had much better many times. Maybe these folks don't know what real gravy tastes like. Anyway, we'll be back as it was good including the service. Well try something else next time. read more

We only visit Yuma as my husband works out there for a couple months and I bookmarked this spot for brunch. Love that there were locals in the joint and the service was excellent. Everyone is friendly and the spot has a homey feel to it. We had our two baby boys with us and we ordered pancakes, chicken strips, poutine, and steak and eggs. Everything was standard, delicious brunch food. We ended up taking home the strips as my one son was asleep and stayed sleeping throughout our meal. He stayed asleep next to my husband in a booth. If we ever come back to Yuma, I'd definitely give this spot another visit just for the service alone. read more

Wonderful service breakfast was good wish more breakfast restaurants would be more like this small gem of a place

Great little diner with great service. The parking lot could use some maintenance, but the food is worth a few potholes. We had a lovely breakfast with friends and I got Spam and eggs! Haven't done that in ages. The staff is great, the ambiance is cozy. Glad we stopped in. read more

Had breakfast here. Home cooked quality food. Salsa is great, took some home with me too. Services too notch. Quaint little place.

Visited 11/9/2023 Wow Fantastic Breakfast Brunch Place. Breakfast Yesterday in Yuma Az after Doctors Appointment. Loretta had The Chicken Fried Steak. The Steak was tasty with good flavor but a little overcooked. The Home Fried Potatoes were seasoned nicely but could have used 2 minutes longer in the pan. But The Home Made Sausage Gravy from Scratch Was Amazing. I Ordered The Gravy Boat Breakfast with extra Eggs. Fantastic Breakfast comes with double Hash Browns Smothered in That Outstanding Country Sausage Gravy. All was cooked perfectly. This is now my Go To Breakfast Joint When I'm In Yuma. If you get to Yuma this place is worth a visit. Right off the I-8 Freeway. read more

Good place for breakfast. Busy enough to keep kitchen involved and excellent service. Will go back if ever in the Foothills area again

Everything was delicious. The staff was amazing. We had a waiter and he was the best. The Johnny special was only 6.35 can't beat that! But honestly the food was delicious. read more

Place doesn't look fancy but has a lot of history. We wanted to try someplace new coming back from California. I definitely recommend this little diner. Our server was Lindsay and she was super nice and had lots of carisma. I had the chicken fried steak with eggs and hash browns. Also came with a side of toast and I ordered rye toast which was delicious. My CFS came out crispy and hot with just the right amount, texture of sausage gravy. My wife had the fish and chips which she liked very much. It was crunchy and hot even the fries were crispy. Over all I'm glad I found this place and pinning it to my favorites, so next time I travel through. read more

The food will make you s___t afterwards . Ate three times and same result. Don't know how I can explain it.

Food was ok service was good BUT it was 77.00$ for 4 people for BREAKFAST....... Most menu items 12.00 to 19.00$ , coffee $3.00, upgrade of hash browns to home fries a $1.50 .... And on and on ... and don't forget the $2.00 charge for using a credit card ...... if you take 2 eggs, 2 bacon and toast wholesale to the owner is approx . Under $2.00 ? And then charge $12.00 ... that's one heck of a markup (600%) .... Yes could gone somewhere else and will in the future .... This is Yuma and not Las Vegas ...... a diner should have diner pricing ..... read more

As travelers 400 miles (so far) from home, to walk into a restaurant where everyone is genuinely cheerful & friendly, the only word(s) I can think of is joyful & joy filled! We enjoyed delicious & flavorful cheeseburgers and fresh hot crinkle fries (our favorite)! Our server, Tammy, was wonderfully attentive. Their Tshirts say "Always 100%" - we agree 100% 5 stars for food & service! 11/21/24. Update: traveling through again & stopped in for lunch and breakfast! Consistently delicious and flavorful! This will likely be on our list to come back as we continue to travel. Lindsey was friendly and helpful in our meal choices. Thank you & see you soon! read more

You can't go wrong! Seriously, we drive over from Yuma for breakfast here. Whatever you order is always fresh and delish!! Employees are always friendly and Janet is the best! Thanks for the delish meals Rick's! read more

The service was good but what has happened to the food quality? Heat and serve sausage? Raw potatoes and the eggs were not good either. If you're going to charge top dollar for a crappy breakfast then we won't be back. What a difference in a year! I always said it was the best around. Dennys is better read more

Sadly it wasn't as good as we hoped for, I had chicken fried steak with home potatoes I gonna say they came out of a freezer bag not so great, chicken fried steak gravy was alright at I will leave it at that. I will say the salsa was absolutely delicious, sad they are missing the mark should have a Spanish omelet with that on top, and other things with that incorporated. We also had the gravy boat lets just say that boat should be docked and not served can't say it was very good. As for service sadly it's lacking as well we asked for decaf tea they forgot, we asked for fresh milk or cream we never received, asked for another cup of coffee she forgot had to ask someone else. read more

Little place right off the freeway. Staff and I assume owner were warm and welcoming. Prices for a regular breakfast, eggs, toast, hash browns and bacon were not crazy high. Qty of food was great. Glad a local place was there instead of the trash fast food. read more

On Saturday, I visited this cozy spot in Yuma that emanates a homely vibe, making it almost feel like dining in my own home. The staff was excellent. I got the steak and eggs with home fries and coffee a classic choice that rarely disappoints. My child went for sausage and eggs with hash browns, accompanied by a refreshing glass of orange juice. Sampling my child's breakfast, I found it to be enjoyable, though the sausage had a unique flavor and texture that's a bit challenging to describe--it didn't quite match the typical sausage experience. As for my meal, it was satisfying overall, but I must note that the home fries left something to be desired. read more

Coffee and service great .Food not so much. Stopped for breakfast on our way to San Diego. Eggs tasted chalky, bacon cold.

Great people, great service, and great food!! it has a great hometown feel and we appreciate the convenience.

Great food! Great service! I had the gravy boat. Biscuit and hash browns with country gravy. Came out hot and delicious. My girlfriend had the French toast and loved every bite. I will definitely return. read more

Food is good, People are great, Service is good, but in the four years we have gone there the prices have more than doubled, way too high. You can get the same meal just about anywhere else for 25 - 30 percent less. read more

Thanks to fellow yelpers we gave Rick's a try while tripping through Yuma, AZ. Good choice for a tasty burger and some killer onion rings! I chose the bacon cheeseburger, while the Mr. decided on the jalapeño burger. Great tasting burgers that a really big enough to share. We ate a few tots- they were standard- but demolished the perfectly crispy onion rings. We took our order to go cause we had the wonder-puppy with us, but the counter help was friendly in a busy place, so kudos to them too. read more

I really enjoy this restaurant. The food is always consistent for breakfast and lunch. The staff and service are always great. Would be nice when the snowbirds are here they eat and move on so other people can enjoy the food but maybe one day they will learn. read more

They are so friendly here! Welcoming to our pooch as well! Food was great, good cafe style food at good prices. Did I say they are so nice? Because they are. Kudos, enjoyed our time here. read more

Have driven past Ricks Kitchen numerous times. This morning, after the wife had fasted for labs, this was the closest place open. Decided to give it a shot. Very happy we did. Staff is very friendly. Food was pretty good and hot. For me it was just the right amount as I'm normally a big eater. I didn't leave hungry. Wife enjoyed hers also. Since we aren't normally in Yuma daily, I can't say I'll be there often, but it's certainly now our Yuma breakfast spot when we have the chance. Wife reminded me we can stop for lunch also. I highly recommend it, unless you want to spend more at the big chain restaurants where you won't get this kind of service and food. FYI, our delicious breakfast only cost us $3 more than our fast food lunch did yesterday. read more

We drive by Rick's Kitchen every day and it is always packed. I had heard lots of good things about their breakfast, so we finally got around to going today! We waited until 11am so we could avoid the morning rush. When we walked in, we were encouraged to find a table of our choice. There were two empty tables.Would have liked a booth, but didn't think it would be appropriate to request the current diners to move! There is a covered outdoor patio, but the chill in the air was just a tad too chilly, so we chose a table just inside the back door. We were immediately greeted by our server, whom, for the life of me, I cannot remember her name. My guess, however, is she has been there way longer than the rest of the servers. Very friendly and personable with a great sense of humor! The morning specials were posted outside on a chalkboard, but she still took the time to run through them. It's great to see individuals who appear to enjoy their jobs! We chose the SOS and the 2X2X2. Our server brought us some ice water and a cup of coffee for me. I like my coffee with heavy cream. (I know...strange, right!?) They did not have any cream, so I decided I would still try the coffee with half & half. I'll give two thumbs DOWN on the coffee. Not sure if I would have liked it had they had heavy cream. The mugs are a perfect size with a handle that's just right. It seemed like others who had arrived after us were getting their meals before us. We weren't starving, nor were we in a hurry, so we decided to be patient. After our server dealt with an issue in the kitchen, she came out and apologized to my husband, explaining that, unfortunately, they had run out of the SOS. (No sh*#) He then decided on the three meat breakfast bowl. After she took his second order, our meals came out very quickly. His breakfast was a smaller portion than he expected. Mine was not hot anymore. The butter took forever to melt on my pancakes. I am assuming it's because my plate was ready when they realized that my husband's original breakfast item was not available, so it sat there for a bit. Two thumbs up for making my bacon extra extra crispy and my eggs medium well, just as requested! The pancakes didn't have much taste to them. My husband described his meal as, "It was there. Nothing to write home about!" Now, we absolutely like to support our local businesses, but considering it was almost $34 for one coffee and 2 breakfasts, it was just a bit too pricey in my opinion. I can now say that I finally tried Rick's Kitchen and the employees are all REALLY nice. The food is only okay. I know the current economy may have a bearing on the cost to do business, but, for what we got, we definitely won't make a habit of going there in the future. read more

Cheeseburger and Fries. Excellent! Tuna Melt Passable. Obviously made by folks who really don't appreciate a really good Tuna Melt. Very messy. "Where's my Pickle?" Corn dog batter didn't cook 100% Pie at nearly 8.00 a slice. There was a funky flavor w/ discoloration on one of the three slices. All three had the same flavor of pie. The dark section of crust tasted like beef or beef gravy had spilled on the crust prior to baking (verified with companion) "tastes like beef pot pie". Fruit pie crust has no business being the answer to the question "Where's the beef?" read more

Excellent! Don't miss out on this hidden gem in Yuma. If I could give them 10 or 100 stars, I would! The food was 100%. The service was 100%. The ambiance and pet-friendly, outdoor dining this time of year was 100%. We will be back, guaranteed! read more

Fantastic food! Our family stopped here on our trip between Phoenix and San Diego and we were very impressed by the quality of the food. The burgers were absolutely amazing as well as the rest of the food that we had. They have homemade pies which were wonderful. Our family had both cherry and rhubarb and enjoyed them very much. read more

Great wait staff and fair food. Rick has cut way back his quality and the cooks are'nt what they used to be. Way overcooked hamburger patty with eggs, hash browns lukewarm warm. No thin chocolate mints and the prices are too high. Love coming in to the family of the wait staff, but no longer the food. read more
