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

Chicken and waffles, eggs Benny

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! :)
Clara S.

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

Arlie S.

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.

The menu has shrunk considerably and their business days/hours are also a lot less than what it was previously. The drinks were not as tasty as they used to be. My Blue Rose drink was the best of the bunch and I would say even that was just OK. I enjoyed the Lychee jelly in my drink. That was probably the best part of the drink. The liquid part was kinda "meh" for me. I think the best thing we ordered was the matcha soft serve ice cream. On the flip side, there was a guy playing piano there and they were taking requests. I suggested Demon Slayer and the guy played the famous "Gurenge" song by Lisa from season one of Demon Slayer. That was kinda cool. He was a very good pianist. Great way to liven the atmosphere. Also, there was a guy who came around and gave us all tiny paper cranes. It's nothing much, but still always nice to be gifted with anything at all. Business must be hard for them. It would sure be nice to see them return to how they used to be, with a bigger menu, tastier drinks and more days/hours again. We love this place for the manga/ anime vibes that it exudes, and love the Matcha soft serve ice cream they sell here. Really wanna give this place a higher rating but the drinks were really not up to par this time, and as much as we love the Matcha ice cream, it is not by itself enough to warrant giving out a higher rating. If they could just improve the quality of their drinks again...then even if they menu remains limited, at least if everything they serve is of good quality...that would be enough to merit a higher rating.

Little Pisces is a great place to get dessert…read more The taiyaki and soft serve are so good here! I recommend getting the milk soft serve with custard-filled taiyaki with it. The soft serve has a nice and sweet flavor, and taiyaki tastes so great. The taiyaki has a nice crunch on the outside, but still remains soft on the inside. The custard goes so well with the taiyaki, and reminds me of bolo bao. The taiyaki and custard pairs so nicely with the soft serve, and is a nice balance to the straight up sweetness and creaminess of the soft serve. The service here is typically good, some of the workers don't seem too happy to be there at times, but it can get pretty busy so it's understandable. The wait time isn't too bad even during busy times though, and the staff are nice overall. The vibe inside is very nice. The place is very clean, and has nice clean and minimalist decorations. The merchandise is also very nice and aesthetic. The place is very cute, and even the menu was made in a very simple and nice way. There's lots of seating outside and inside as well. I highly recommend checking out Little Pisces if you're looking for a good dessert and you're in the area. It's a cute place with good food, reasonable prices, and a nice vibe. They're also open late most of the time, so it's a good place to visit if you want something late at night.

This place is well known for its mille crepe cakes, and we can see why. The cake was light, soft, and beautifully layered with what looked like 30+ thin layers. They offer 15+ flavours, including durian, mango, matcha, pistachio, and tiramisu, so there are plenty of options. We liked that the cake was not too sweet, which made it easy to enjoy. It felt like a perfect dessert for a celebration with friends or family. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The service is a bit slow, but we think it is worth the wait since everything is freshly prepared. Overall, we had a lovely experience and would order again for another special occasion. Food: 4/5 Should Try! Service: 4/5 Kids: 5/5 Woohoo! Price: around $10+ each pastry Presentation: 2/5 Parking: Available on-street with meters. Tips: * 8-inch crepe cakes can be customized with 2-5 flavours. * Recommend pre-ordering one day in advance for whole cakes. * Credit card only over $20, otherwise cash.

I quite enjoyed their crepe cake but thought that the milk tea did not have enough tea flavour. I also got a matcha crepe cake to go and found that compared to some other crepe cake stores, this one did not taste as good the day after. I would come here again for the happy hour special. Do note that there is a minimum spend in order to use a credit card (I think it was $20 but I can't remember), otherwise bring cash or use your debit card.

I wish they post their flavors online somewhere but I haven't found their website or socials yet. I would totally come back if they have cool flavors. One thing I'd say is that there was too much cream so when I opened the box it was a little messy. They had a special of buy 5 cream puffs and get a free special tea. It was an oolong milk tea.

Ghost's Drool: The dessert arrives in a ceramic bowl that resembles a cracked egg shell. It contains a warm pistachio paste that's thick and smooth. It's not too sweet, but my sweet tooth definitely craves something a bit sweeter. The drool is actually a melted mochi, which is soft, stretchy, and chewy. This bowl is a delicious showcase of textures. Double Skin Milk Pudding: Somewhere between a custard and a pudding, it's silky, smooth, and really creamy. It has a thick "skin" on top formed as the custard cools, which adds a nice chewy texture to this smooth steamed dessert. Double Skin Milk Pudding with Taro: This version of the milk pudding contains a clump of soft, chewy, purple taro. Black Sesame Soup with Mini Glutinous Rice Balls: The hot black sesame paste is fragrant and nutty, probably the best flavor in this shop. The soupy paste is also thick and smooth. The rice balls are chewy like the mochi. Mochi with Red Bean Paste: This one contains a red bean paste, which is almost like the filling of a sweet potato pie. It is smooth and creamy with the chewy mochi.
