    Still great! I've been grabbing lunch whenever I'm in the area at Ricks Delicafe for a really long time. In fact I think it use to be named something else when I first visited way way back. Anyhow the service is always great! Super friendly nice gal at the register with a smile took my order. My go to is the Wall Street on Dutch with a thin slice of raw onion. Was just as tasty as always. Not sure what type of sauce they use on it but it's so freaking delicious. It's always fun to look at the gangsta pics around the place and think what it would have been like to live back then. Just as a side note, sandwich chips and a drink with tax slightly over $20 so for sure not cheap but the quality is worth it in my book!

    Busy lunch spot in industrial area. A lot of people ordering to go. We got there just after 11:30, perfect timing as a crowd of people came after us. We waited at the counter for about 5 minutes before someone came to take our order. We only saw two ladies working in back making orders. We asked if we could order half sandwiches and were told we could. I wanted a grilled pastrami but was told that didn't come as a half only a full sandwich so I ordered something else. My friend asked if it came with soup or salad and was told no. This was offered on the website but we just got the sandwiches as the line behind us was long and it wasn't on the board menu. I ordered a fountain drink and my friend ordered a water. We paid and went to get our drinks. The ice didn't come out and the machine started making noise so we just got our drinks and sat down to wait for our orders. I heard the girl at the counter tell another customer the fountain machine wasn't working so I guess she saw there was no ice coming out but once the line was gone made no move to replenish the ice. Our orders were delivered in about ten minutes and were satisfactory with fresh bread. A little disappointed to not get a salad or soup and the sandwich I wanted. Probably won't go out of my way to go here again.

    Great sandwich good service. Clean establishment. Would recommended. It was sooooooooo good

    I had *THE* most amazing sandwich today! It was epic. It was what other sandwiches hope to be when they grow up. It was savory, spicy, fresh, cheesy... in a word, it was lengen.... (wait for it)..... DARY! There are so many delis in South Reno, I'm always in a tough spot trying to pick when I'm in this part of town. I hadn't had Rick's in a while and decided to go for the Yelp-recommended John Gotti, which has ALL THE THINGS. Of course I went for Dutch Crunch because duh. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and so very tender. The red onion and anaheim peppers added some beautiful flavor, while the tomato and sprouts came in with the freshness. Bacon was... deliciously bacon, as always! Cheese was sooooo stretchy (check out the photo) and the absolute kicker was that Chipotle aioli. I'm ready to drown in that stuff, it's so effing good. I forgot how much I love Rick's - the sandos, the people, everything! And yes, after tax and tip this tasty sando was about $16. Worth every penny!! This was massive and I needed a nap after finishing it. Do yourself a favor and get yourself a John Gotti ASAP!

    Im pretty sure this was The Philly.

    Had a hankering for a steak sandwich (warm) and Ive never reviewed this place, so there we go. I did not order over the phone, i actually drove there at lunch (its close to work) and it was quick! It was fairly busy (2 people in front of me) but i placed my order and waited. The lady working the counter was very nice and even allowed me to modify my sandwich somewhat (no peppers, extra mayo). The sandwich was really good! Its like the kind of sandwich you would make at home (plenty of meat), fresh produce and a great aioli mayo! I liked it! Good stuff! I actually ordered the The Philly and i highly recommend it! Ive ordered some of their cold sandwiches and they are great as well. If you are in the area, give them a chance!

    Are you nostalgic for NYC? Well we are. We were in the city exactly one year ago and my husband found this sandwich shop that happens to be near where we just moved. On our first day off after he found it in yelp we came in. So glad we did. The decor is totally New York with two huge photos of different views of the city. There's rows of old NYC movie photos as well. Very cool. As for the sandwiches, hubby loved his the "Wall Street" I chose to build my own as I'm much pickier than him. Started with the Dutch crunch. I loved the bread and I am very much a bread person. I added just salami, cheddar, tomatoes and avocado. I always have to make sure that it is actual avocado and not guacamole spread. It was real, fresh avocado. If you like tomatoes you'll understand what I mean by saying The tomatoes were extremely red and yummy, just right in ripeness and freshness. The salami was not my favorite kind I prefer dry Italian I think this was Genoa type salami but really I love salami in general. The tastes came together deliciously and I was satisfied. They conveniently have little styrofoam boxes available for you to take half your sandwich to go so you don't have to ask them to wrap it up for you. I'm really glad I have leftovers to eat later because I thiNk I'll be craving it. Yay for finding a really good sandwich spot near where I live.

    Can't believe I've lived in Reno since 2006 and never been to Rick's Deli. I dialed up this pretty lady I met working the graveyard shift and took her here on a lunch date. We walked in Thursday around 1130 and my eyes were affixed to the walls of a beautiful New York skyline. Not going to lie I was also recklessly eyeballing my date, the women's a New York 20! The joint was filled with photographs from some of the best films ever created, Once Upon A Time in America, Heat, and The God Father to name a few. We walked up to the register and were greeted. My gorgeous date order a build her own, and I was locked on The Wall Street. We grabbed a Barq's root beer, shared a bag of cool ranch Doritos, and a seat near the NYC mural. Our sandwiches were quickly delivered and boom! First bite into that warm Dutch crunch, Tri Tip, and smoked cheddar Wall Street was FIREWORKS. Awesome sandwich Rick's. Great food and great service. As I was walking out I realized they had BREAKFAST!!! I will return!!! Thanks Rick's Deli, and YES I got a another date from that bombshell beauty!

    Scarface on Dutch crunch

    I've been coming to the part of town regularly lately and just noticed this little deli. I like delis and the reviews looked good so I stopped in. It was lunch and and a few people were eating or waiting inside, most of them regulars because everyone knew each other's names. I ordered the Scarface on Dutch crunch bread. The prices were different than the Yelp photos but that's not a big deal. The online menu doesn't have prices but it looks like you can order ahead online and pick it up when you arrive. It didn't matter because they're super quick and the sandwich was ready in minutes. I'm not a bread connoisseur and don't like super crunchy gum destroying bread so it was perfect! Slightly firm on the outside and perfect on the inside. The rest of the sandwich flowed really well together and was quite tasty. I look forward to trying another sandwich next time.

The burger was thick, juicy, and piled high with classic toppings, messy in the best way and full of flavor. The BLT was generously stacked with crispy bacon, fresh lettuce, and tomato on toasted bread, simple and satisfying. The only downsides were the fries and my drink. The fries were overcooked, dry, and a bit too tough. I ordered a vodka soda, and it tasted more like soda with a splash of vodka. Overall, it was a good experience and we would return.

The other pasta we tried was the BLACK SPAGHETTI, mixed with clams, scallops, shrimp, hot chopped peppers, white wine, butter and lemon. It was fantastic!! Cooked al dente and packed with flavor.

I absolutely loved the White Linen -- and that's saying a lot because I'm usually not much of a gin drinker. Tonight I also tried the Blueberry Lemon Drop. I tend to like more of a tart citrus flavor, so it wasn't exactly the tartness I expected at first; however, once I ate the blueberry garnish and took another sip, it completely changed the drink for me and tasted much better. I also tried two of their specials -- the Salmon with Alfredo sauce and the Tenderloin sliders. Again, Alfredo normally isn't my thing, but the Salmon was cooked beautifully and the sauce was very enjoyable, especially since they accommodated my request for a lighter amount. Since I couldn't decide between dishes, I ordered the tenderloin sliders to-go as well... and they were delicious too! Our server Miguel was new and did a really good job. You could tell he was just a little nervous, but he was attentive, kind, and handled himself well. Everyone starts somewhere, and I wanted him to know he's doing a great job and will only continue getting better with experience. Another solid visit overall.

The menu has a variety of dishes and it was really delicious and well-prepared. The bus-persons and food runners were great: friendly and attentive. Cons: the cashier, our waitress and the manager lack initiative. Our server disappeared at the end of the meal; meanwhile, we had a starring contest with the cashier who I guess couldn't leave her station to drop off the check or ring us up, so we had to walk-up to the hostess to ask for the check, to which we were directed to the manager who then dropped off a copy of the receipt after about 20 minutes but didn't bother ringing it up. Instead, she strolled out to the casino floor with another woman and had a long, languid conversation. After about an hour, we flagged her back down and told her we were ready to pay the bill, she then directed us to the bar where the cashier was. So in summary: food was good, some of the service was good but overall service could use some improvement.
