    I wanted to give this place five stars but frankly I just cannot. I thought the subs were really good but not great. Definitely not the best cheesesteaks I've had, but pretty good. And that's the point: it's just pretty good, nothing bad.

    Food was very good & filled with plenty for a fair price. Ordering was very quick and efficient because they had some kiosks as well as people at the counter ready to take your order, They were super nice and have a really good atmosphere.

    Philly steak & cheese with extra green peppers, onions and banana peppers. Sooooo good.

    After 20 years of being in this neighborhood I recently tried this place and since then I've been here several times. Everything I have ever ordered has been so good. The restaurant is clean and all of the staff are super friendly. Definitely a 10/10 experience every time. The sub bread is on another level as well. This has become my new go to restaurant when I'm in the mood for an above average sub.

    First time here and I was impressed by the building. Clean and spacious with a safe place type feeling . Smells were on point and the menu was easy to read and order. Food was good! I ordered the half steak and cheese. Definitely will be back.

    I've seen Ricky's posted on various social media food blogs and friends accounts for a while now and would always drool as I tapped through pictures. One day, the cravings really just over came me and my cousins, and we loaded ourselves into the car and made the trek out to Dearborn to finally try Ricky's for ourselves. The second I walked in, the tantalizing aroma hit me and my appetite went into overload. The staff was super helpful, suggesting different sandwiches based off our tastes. Our order was particularly complicated as we had to accommodate some severe allergies and the staff was very mindful and intentional in making sure there was no cross contamination or allergen exposure in our selections. As you can see in the pictures, we ordered a number of sandwiches, fries, and some sides and we demolished the entire order. The bread was soft and freshly baked, the toppings were clean and fresh, and the meat was tender and flavorful. I'm obsessed with sauces and the sauces were all super yummy and complimentary to the sandwiches they topped. We also ordered Frozen Elephants - but those didn't last long enough for us to photograph. We instantly devoured those! As we sat there and posted our meal, we received texts from our family members requesting we bring them food to go. We ended up ordering more food on our way out to take home and everyone at home all enjoyed their subs too!

    At Ricky's sub cuz why not ‍

    People will stop giving reviews if we are being regulated on describing our pictures. Today was my third order from Ricky's and it was the third order because the other two was delicious my first two orders my first one I picked up it was a veggie sub the second one was a ubereats delivery it was delicious the third one was today I ordered a half chubby sub and a half veggie sub. If you look at my veggie sub you will see that Ricky's did me so wrong 10.99 for bread they put 1/3 cup of lettuce on my veggie sub talk about pissed I was really mad because how you send a veggie sub out looking like this this was horrible and has convinced me to never place another order here unless I can come pick my food up and look at it before I leave. I paid the price you asked for I really thought you was going to do me better than this is there a shortage on lettuce lol. Listen, the chubby sub wasn't my thing it was made right I just didn't care for and oh they pack it with well seasoned meat so if you get a chance stop by and check out their subs don't do delivery go get it.

    Half Firecracker Philly (8 in), hot wings, Cajun style fries

    This place is fire. Split between my man and myself, got us full for a decent $28. Very clean restrooms, nice place to sit and eat if you want.

I can't believe the place is still here after all of these years. There are 2 types of subs here: Italian, and "Other Subs", so you know that this shop sprang from the vibrant Italian community that once populated Detroit. The Italian Subs at Gonella's are ordered according to how many layers it builds up (which I think is a unique concept). These layered Gonella Italian Subs are layered with a variety of Italian meats (Hard Salami, Salami Cotto, Mortadella, Smoked Ham and Capicola), provolone cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions & Gonella's homemade dressing. Soft or hard roll. Extras: Peppers (+.50) Cheese (+.50) - (Turkey is reserved for the "Other Subs). 6 Layers Meat, 1 Layer Cheese --- $8 8 Layers Meat, 2 Layer Cheese --- $9 12 Layers Meat, 2 Layer Cheese --- $12 14 Layers Meat, 3 Layer Cheese --- $13 18 Layers Meat, 3 Layer Cheese --- $14 The subs are heavy and delicious.

Soft sub buns, tons of stacks of meat, lettuce and tomato or not. No one goes hungry after a sub here. Some deli spots tend to skimp on the protein, but not this place. My team members favorite is the Italian, 6 stacks. I usually will go for a turkey or chicken stack. They offer up to 18 stacks, haven't tried that yet.

Side Chic's blows them out of the water along with every other spot in Detroit/Dearborn (Savvy Sliders, Checkers, KFC, Chic Fil A, Chick N Kingz etc.) The breading on the tenders is very, very flavorful. They also put the perfect amount of breading on each tender. I absolutely hate overbreaded tenders where it feels like you're chewing through multiple layers till you hit chicken. Side Chic's avoids this completely by having a nice layer of breading that adds flavor and doesn't distract from the chicken. The chicken itself is hot, juicy and well textured. This is not rubbery, dry chicken. The only other way I can describe it is it just tastes fresh. I was thoroughly impressed. Side Chic's is a carry out spot that's open very, very late (which is awesome). Everyone who works there is incredibly pleasant and helpful. Also, even though the chicken is fresh and made to order, your food comes out in a fairly quick manner. I really can't say enough good things about Side Chic's. Best Chicken Tenders I've had in the Detroit/Dearborn area!

Grabbed some lunch for my team: Chicken bacon ranch no lettuce or tomato, a large Lebanese salad (no pita), Turkey Reuben sandwich, Chicken melt, Bronx and a can of Mountain Dew and one can of Coke. Oh my. Their Chicken melt menu that someone posted on here changed from what someone else had posted a while back. Their current chicken melt is essentially a chicken Philly. It wasn't what my team member wanted, had to give it to someone else, since it had mushrooms in it. The Lebanese salad was good, the large is a good size. Loaded with tomatoes and cukes. Ended up with bits of pita at the bottom of my salad, had to pick them out. :/ The chicken bacon ranch was nicely packed with meat in a sub bun. The Bronx was good as well. The turkey Rueben was okay. Light on the kraut and sauce. The turkey meat was deli slices though. The bread was maybe separately toasted. It was pan or cook top cooked. The rye was a bit too hard as I tried to get a bite in. I ended up having to gut it and eat the inside goods separately. Oven roasted turkey would have been fantastic, more kraut or add slaw too. Salad was good and fresh. The sandwiches look picture worthy.

Unfortunately the location in…read moreDearborn Heights just isn't somewhere I go very often so it's been stuck on my list for the longest time. They opened a second branch in East Dearborn recently which finally allowed me to give the subs a try. The restaurant itself is quite small and is mostly a takeout destination. There are only 14 seats in the small dining room, a small fridge stocked with drinks, and the order counter, from which you can see the kitchen. I went in on a very empty weekday lunch and got one item, which took about 10 minutes to come out: Lebanese Sub, Half ($8.99) - They toast this sub well, resulting in a very nice crunch on the exterior. Just be careful eating it - you can pretty easily lacerate your gums if you're not careful! The interior is moist for the most part, with a bit of a mild garlic and mayo mixture that covers all the ingredients. There's a double layer of grilled chicken breast that forms a base layer, followed by some fries that are crunchy on the exterior and fluffy on the interior, and finally a layer of crunchy and acidic pickles. The chicken is the weakest part of the dish - some pieces are overcooked, dry, and tough. It's most noticeable in the thickest areas where there's not enough mayo/garlic to add moisture to the sandwich. Still, overall I found the sub to be good and the ingredients all complemented each other well. Note: The little red tray that they served the sub in smelled heavily of bleach and my first couple of bites had a slight whiff of bleach thanks to that. If you eat here, I would recommend removing the food from the tray before eating. Zaghloul Subs is definitely worth a try.

Let's just grab a quick bite. I didn't know what to order so I ordered the Ontario and an iced caramel latte. Once the sandwich came out I thought," Hmm looks good."
