Highly impressed with the OG Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich I got! I got a half sandwich with white cheddar on it and it was huge! Luckily I didn't get a full one because I wouldn't have been able to finish it. I was tempted to get it with the Cheez Wiz on it but I was hesitant. I saw someone else get it while I was there and it looked really good, maybe next time I'll get it! The parking lot is pretty busy but there's plenty of places to sit inside the restaurant! read more

Finally made it here for the first time after hearing a ton of great things. I ordered the OG Philly and loaded it up w/ green peppers, mushrooms, and red pepper relish. Everything about the Philly was very good, but the bread roll really stood out to me...it was super soft & fresh but had a perfect, golden, thin, crispy crust on the exterior holding everything in place and giving just the right amount of crunch to every bite. It held up to the steamy steak and cheese like a champ without getting soggy, Solid sub. And this beast is big; half is enough to satiate almost any hungry appetite. I got mine to go, but the inside is bright & spacious with a ton of seating (but parking can be a challenge). This might also be one of the cleanest sub shops I've ever visited...absolutely spotless when I was there. While in the shop, I also got the pleasure of meeting Mike, who said he bought the place from Ricky a few years back. Mike seems to be a great dude who loves what he does and takes pride in his craft. He hooked me up with a sample of the red pepper relish, showed me what kind they use, and even told me where to buy it in bulk! He also shared some of their in-house Cajun seasoning, which was pretty tasty. Before I left, he gave me a heads up to be sure to hit Dearborn Sweets next door, and even some top selections to try (FWIW....he was right). I can't wait to come back and try some of their other subs! Shoutout and thanks to Mike for making it a great first visit! read more

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. read more

Ricky's is really super good. Service is fast and the food is fresh and Hot and the ppl are amazing. Location is in a great place.

Very disappointed! Ate here the first time since it was sold, first off, I ordered 2 10" Philly and fries with pop and it came to almost $60 that's way too expensive! There was hardly any flavor, barely any cheese and it just didn't taste the same. And stop putting lettuce, tomatoes and vinegar on your damn Philly ITS NOT GOOD! They don't come even close to how it used to taste. read more

Perfect bread to toppings ratio! When I got it I was overwhelmed with it being open faced and had to it like a taco it was a lot of toppings! I ate half 6 hours in restaurant. I just ate the other half just now the sandwich was perfect! Usually by now anywhere else the bread would be soggy by now but no this one made me wish I had got a whole sandwich instead of 1/2 read more

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. read more

I have to say Ricky's is a really good place to get a s&c sub I've been there many times I never get a disappointing sub. I've been to many different places to get a cheesesteak sub, I've been to Jersey Mike's and I've been to all kinds of places that serve cheesesteaks . so many different variations of every kind of place you go to is trying to emulate what you get in Philadelphia you don't call the Philadelphia cheesecake but you called the cheesesteak good if you're in a hurry they're also good when you're on Greenfield and are looking for something there's many options in the obvious is like you know typical you know fast food you know nothing special. The service is really fast and very polite and I enjoyed , the recommendations and if you go there, I would highly recommend it if you're out of town looking for somewhere decent. I recommend this too. read more

If I could give them 0 stars, I would. I'm from Philly and this is NOT a Philly cheesesteak. I don't even write reviews but the fact that this offended me from how awful it was, it didn't make me feel at home at all. I was super excited since they mention being the best Philly cheesesteak, and I promise you it was truly a letdown. read more

This place isn't good. New ownership ruined it. The food is ok, but it's not what it use to be. They are so understaffed though. My wait time was originally 20 minutes but it took them over an hour read more

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. read more

Ricky's Sub Shop - Half Philly Steak & Cheese (8 in) - Sandwiches Near Me - Dearborn, Michigan

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! read more

Love this place! And it looks like everyone else does too, since at lunch time its always busy. Everything on the menu tastes good, practically tried everything!! My favorite is got to be the fish subs...made with cod and the fantastic part is that its more fish than breading! This one I recommend the most. Went there today (7-3-18) and had to get the Philly steak sub everything on it, just because I was thinking about this sandwich since the morning, satisfied my craving. Ricky's doesn't mask the favor of this sub with cheese or overpower it with the green peppers...its just perfect! The Ricky's Club sub has got to be my 3rd favorite, and it really fills me up when I order this sandwich. Price reflect the quality and the amount you get, it won't disappoint. I gotta say, that Ricky takes pride in the food he serves his customers....and it shows. He treats all his customers like neighbors/friends. That's what makes this place keep on going strong! People working here are always friendly, even when it becomes hectic for lunchtime, but sometime you just got to keep the line moving, so please know what you want to get before you hit that register. Gotta say a shout out to Faras! You cook a mean Philly steak sub, keep up the good work! Hey you just gotta stop by if your in the area...or better yet, drive that extra mile out of your way and have a great sub sandwich, you won't be disappointed. Tell 'em Andrea sent ya! ;) read more

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. read more

Ordered over the phone to be told order would be ready in 25-30. order came out about an hour later, even after being told "few more minutes". very unhappy with the service. even requesting to speak with the owner, took more than "few minutes." Finally spoke with the owner just to tell me "it's only xx minutes late." if you can wait 2-3 hours for your food to be ready, gladly come here! read more

Ricky's is not the absolute best steak and cheese shop in the state of Michigan, but many will argue it reigns as king in Dearborn. For the longest time there were not many options for S&C sandwiches in the area. Now we have places like Lefty's, Bulldog's, and Detroit Pizza Factory that also offer their own delicious options. You can't go wrong at Ricky's though. You can get yours simple with onions and cheese wiz, or pile on lettuce and tomatoes if you fancy that. For as long as I've been eating from here the formula hasn't changed, which is great for returning customers such as myself. They also now have a food truck! read more

My husband and I love their steak and cheese sandwiches. The service is always pretty quick as well. We love supporting the local business owners as much as possible. read more

This place is lit! Dudes behind the counter are cool and helpful. Got the cheesesteak with mushrooms. Man, was it great. Was only able to get through about half of it cause it was huge. Saved the rest for dinner. You gotta bring one home!!! Will for sure visit next time in town. Spot is easy to get to, parking is ok but seating is limited. read more

Ricky's Sub Shop - Mushroom, Steak and Cheese sub. - Sandwiches Near Me - Dearborn, Michigan

Hello, I have nothing against you serving a HALA menu but you are alienating a LARGE group of loyal customers that have been coming there for YEARS. I personally have been coming to Rickys for 40 years but sadly NO MORE :( I cannot believe a "sub shop" that does not have an Italian or Ham and Cheese sub!! I guess Jersey Mikes will be getting my business from here on out. HOW SAD. read more

To expensive for basic food the ambiance was ok the service was slow when they reopened it was fire

*Halal* Newly redesigned, modern look and feel, this sub shop has a lot of history and has been making delicious subs as far back as I can remember back in my high school days. The philly steak is packed with meat and the sauce is great. They have some amazing boneless wings and the raging hot sauce is pretty spicy. The boneless chicken is big chunks not just small nuggets like most places. I highly recommend you pay them a visit. read more

I ordered twice from there. No more!! First time I got a steak sub. So much pepper on it...gross. I am not a pepper person! Too spicy for me. I didn't know their seasoning had so much pepper in it. Second time, I ordered same sub and I specified no seasoning. Too greasy. I won't order from them anymore. I don't understand the appeal of this place. Just my opinion. read more

Ricky's is awesome! Jacob and I have been looking for an authentic sandwich shop since the Gallery Deli closed down last year. One Saturday, I told Jacob to find us a different restaurant to try for lunch. After looking at Yelp, we headed to Ricky's. The first thing that baffled us: Why haven't we heard of Ricky's before?!! The second thing that baffled us: Why are his prices so low? All baffling aside, the subs were awesome! I got the turkey and bacon while Jacob ordered Ricky's club. Our food only took about 10 minutes on the grill. We topped off our lunch with a shared bag of Uncle Ray's chips and a couple cans of Arizona tea. The quality of the meats is amazing. It's really good stuff. It's so ridiculously cheap, too. Our total with two halves, two Arizonas and a bag of chips was $12 and some change. The half sub is definitely enough for a normal person, but the whole is good if you like leftovers or want to share with someone. I went a second time and got the cheese steak. It was amazing. The steak was so juicy and flavorful... it melted in my mouth. It was less than $5. How this place stays open is beyond me but I'm alright with their prices! If you love good quality sandwiches and a friendly atmosphere, go out of your way and try Ricky's. read more

Ricky's Sub Shop - My friend's Philly cheese steak. - Sandwiches Near Me - Dearborn, Michigan

Love the new look of the store. It's amazing to see a business grow. I remember it being 1/3 in size with a couple of tables to a full sized dine in place. Love the decor and old school feel of the place. Ricky's Sub has been a staple in the Dearborn community. Always make the freshest subs and fries. I have been loyal to the Phillystake and cheese sub but might try out others in the future. My husband enjoys the Firecracker Sub (I think it's called) which is essentially a philly sub but with spicy notes. Their veggie toppings are crisp and fresh every time and I truly appreciate it. Their subs come in 8" or 16". They are fully stuffed, they go heavy with quantity while still providing top quality subs. read more

We drove quite a distance to try this place based on reviews and social media. We also came early on a Sunday during an out of the way errand to beat lines and waits. Service was efficient and polite; our food was received quickly. Steak and cheese was pretty good. The bread is what was impressive. Cajun fries...a bit cool on temperature, the large was enough for 4 ppl. Mac and cheese bites were also very good. 28.00 for everything, but we had lots to take back. I think it's more 4.5, but I rounded up and we're all about small businesses lately. Worth a Sunday drive if you're looking for this fare. There's Ice cream too. read more

Where do I begin!!! The great atmosphere or the amazing food? Took me forever to try this place because they close pretty early, but once I finally got the chance I was hooked! Prices are great for the portion you get! I had the chicken and it was amazing. (Extra points for their bread being dairy free!) Their fries are seasoned, crispy and perfect. The chicken is tender and fresh. You can watch them cook it all right in front of you. Which is really nice to know it's clean. This review is made for the Mushroom Steak and Cheese Sub, which I personally didn't have, but I picked it up for my mom who, apparently, is extremely picky with her steak subs. She took one bite and immediately said "this is the exact type of steak sub that I have been searching ages for". No exaggeration when I say I have never witnessed her so pleased with her food! So that means it must have been amazing. Fresh ingredients at the right price. read more

This my favorite sub place. The toppings are always fresh and the subs are seasoned well.

Really good cheesesteak but still not quite the real deal compared to Philly. Order of fries is huge so can be easily shared. Not cheap but overall a good value. read more
