Riko's is a great little spot to watch any game or just hang out with friends. Food is always great, the pizza is their main attraction and it might not be for everyone but we loved it. The bartender absolutely stole the show I wish I could remember his name but was a really big guy and extremely good at his job, he was so on top of everything even when it got super busy he never skipped a beat. Can't wait to go back!! read more

Stopped in during the Fall Fair simply because I was with my Dad who has diabetes and we needed to get him something to eat fast. Didn't realize you couldn't order just a slice so we ended up staying and splitting a personal pie just so he could get his numbers up. I totally get it's a Sunday and sports are on but it was SO loud at 1:15 that we were yelling across the table and could barely hear each other. The pizza was fine. Thin crust isn't necessarily my fave but it had good flavor. Barista who took our order was nice and tried to get our food as fast as she could. If you like thin crust you may like this place! read more

Riko's Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Merrick, New York

5/4/25 came again with a party of 7. Started with the sampler (mild and riko sauce wings), burrata, philly cheesesteak eggrolls and extra wings (bbq and hot honey). The wings were far superior especially the riko and hot honey. I would def skip the other apps next time. Everyone ordered all different pies. I stuck with the meat pie, with ricotta on the side. All arrived as ordered. Terrance was our server. I believe I had him last time as well. He was super cool but we had to ask for water, plates and racks. Also, I'm not sure why the apps came out staggered. Not a big deal bc it allowed us more time to chill. Super casual place. Good wings/pizza and killer cosmos! read more

Visit Date: January 11, 2025 My friend Ralph of Ralphalicous events was hosting karaoke at Riko's. I was able to make his gig, my boyfriend, and one of his housemates whose also my friend went with me. Later on in the evening another one of his housemates also came down. And we also saw a few of our other friends at the event as well. Riko's is very lively, very full of the younger crowd but they seemed to like us older/middle aged people so that was a plus. I would say the focus is more on the bar but the food was good. I don't always get food when I go to karaoke but I didn't have dinner and I was prepared to pay for some food at Riko's. Just a heads up their last food orders go in at 10:45 on a Saturday night. I opted for the hot honey pizza, I didn't get to try to the pepperoni hot honey pizza trend until last night even though it's been a thing for a while. Riko's did a good job with the pizza. They serve thin crust but it was pretty filling. I had two slices, my boyfriend had two slices and his housemate/my friend also had two slices. The hot honey gave it a sweet taste but it wasn't overly sweet, it blended well with the pepperoni. I was impressed for my first hot oil pizza. Overall Riko's is an entertaining place for a Saturday night and they need to hire Ralph back for Karaoke again! read more

Hot oil pizza was tasty!! Loved their thin crust pizza. The hot oil is not overly spicy but does have a small bit of a kick. It was so enjoyable!! Their wings are also extremely juicy and flavored very well!! Service was super friendly and attentive. Huge parking lot shared with other businesses and Stop n Shop. Plenty of parking in friendly neighborhood of North Merrick. What a gem! read more

Stopped in for a quick family dinner. Very yummy. Baked wings, Caesar salad, clam pizza, white pizza with eggplant and half stinger peppers. Warning: stinger peppers are hot. I forget that, and I always punish myself. Add a few fountain drinks, $100 later, dinner done. read more

A serious 0. Do not even think you're going to get a decent meal here. Pizza stunk. Thin crust? Nope. Horrible all around. Go to a mom and pop place. It was eating at Chucky Cheese. Which I have never. Stunk all around. read more

Riko's Pizza - Their margarita pie with chicken. A hard no all around! - Pizza Near Me - Merrick, New York

amazing food and service..one employee was caught eating shredded cheese from out of his pockets crouched down in the men's bathroom my husband said... he asked what his name was and said he was "Jack the cheese bandit" and offered my husband a bite and he proceeded to make rat noises and hissed at my husband before exiting the restroom. read more

Great local spot. Food was hot and fresh. Sat at the bar and had amazing service from the bartender, extremely kind and knowledgeable. Stinger pepper pizza was a little too spicy for me and the clam pizza was heavy on the bacon, didn't taste much clam or garlic like I was expecting. But wings and service were read more

My friends and I are all 22 years old and we just got denied from this stupid "restaurant." The waitress checked them, then came back to our table, and said she has to bring them for the manager to check. Okay sure, and then she comes back and says "no sorry." Naturally (as I have been here 4 times) I was very confused. So we ask if she needs a second form or why are they saying no, and she says she will send over the manager. This bozo comes over for 30 seconds to tell us he won't call someone out but one of them failed under the light. So if you plan to be this strict, maybe get an actual scanner that tells the truth. We ask if he can tell us who and he can't. He then runs away from us and the only line he has is "they do not meet our standard." So we sit for a second, and processing what happened. Then the waitress comes back and says she can get us waters and we say no we are going to leave. We try to pass the manager on our way out since we see him by the entrance, and he runs away again. It's sad because I had been going to this place on Friday nights with our friends and now I can't return to support such an idiot and rude manager. They also said they are only being strict because it's a holiday where kids are home from college. Maybe be strict all the time and learn what a real ID looks like. Last thing I will say is I saw a 19 year old I went to high school with. Let me be clear she was a freshman on my sports team when I was a senior. read more

We had an incredible experience at Rikos Merrick. The atmosphere was really awesome for the Yankees and Mets games. The pizza was cooked to perfection. And Danny our waiter was so nice and friendly. Tyler the manager was so accommodating and made sure we felt welcomed. I can't wait to come back to dine here. 10/10 read more

Went here about a week ago and all I can say is 5 stars from the second I walked in. The hostess sat us promptly, although it was a busier friday night. Once we were sat our server Danny came over answering all of our questions and was very accommodating. There were a few parties however the atmosphere was lively and the service was as quick as we could've hoped for. I enjoyed the hot honey pizza and my husband had the buffalo chicken salad pizza, I would definitely order again. We both enjoyed personal pitcher of the Rikos IPA. Overall the experience was great, and we will definitely be back! read more

Ordered 2 pizza's and chicken wings. The Pizza's weren't that good, especially the veggie one, and the wings were burnt. Will never order from them again. There are so many pizzeria's on LI that are much, much, better. The chef should buy a pizza from La Piazza or Umberto's to find out what a good pizza should taste like!!! read more

First time trying it, we got a take out order of their regular cheese for the kids, a pepperoni with hot oil, and an order of wings with Riko sauce. Boys really like their pizza, the hot oil was spicy without being overpowering. Wings were crispy and flavorful. Definitely will be back. read more

This restaurant is absolutely amazing. I've been eating here since they opened and have been pleased since. The ambiance, staff, food, and management is overall excellent. The service is great and I have never had an issue with wait time or food time. The food is excellent and provided an enormous amount of options even some new updated menu items. For anyone looking for a great pizza restaurant this is the place to go! read more

Lunch is always delish here especially when Dan is your waiter!! He always takes the best care of us (and we are here a lot)!

great place to grab a pizza and drink! the food is delicious and the service is excellent! great ambience with multiple tvs to catch a game and good music! read more

I ate in the other location and probably have it 3.5 stars, pizza was just okay, there are plenty of places I would go to for Pizza. The wings this time were extremely disappointing. I ordered take out, Cesar salad was fine, the Hot Honey wings were unfortunately way overcooked! I couldn't get halfway through the order, they were extremely dry. I don't think I will be back. read more

This was the greasiest hardest pizza I've ever had! Bar scene looked fun but that's about it. I can think of many other pizza places nearby I'd rather go to. Everything is very franchise restaurant depo ish. If your looking for quality this place will def disappoint! read more

I had to try the new Merrick location, i am a huge fan of Levittown. The thin crust pizza is out of this world. I enjoy the Nashville hot chicken pizza. They have a wide variety of beers and specialty drinks . Check out the hurricane. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Their are plenty of tv's , it is a great place to watch a game. If you get the opportunity to visit Merrick , Don't miss it ! read more

Riko's in Merrick didn't disappoint. I have been going to the Rikos in Levittown for the past few years and decided to try the new location in Merrick. Atmosphere is great. Food was delicious. Friendly wait staff. I am gluten free and the staff was knowledgeable and I enjoyed my gluten free pizza. We will be back! read more

Danny, great guy! He's fun, exhilarating, and enthusiastic. When I come back to Rikos I hope to get him as a server again! The manager Mike is a great guy! I felt very welcomed as soon as I walked in the door! Come to Rikos in merrick you won't regret it! read more

Average pizza spot. Focused more on entertainment than food quality. Looks like a fun evening out/happy hour spot but missing out on the main ingredient, in my opinion...which is the food. Staff was friendly, don't hate it, but don't love it. Would give it another go. read more

They gave me the wrong pizza, I spoke with the manager and he said he would refund me. I called back a month later and they told me the same thing. It's been 3 months and still no refund. The pizza was terrible to boot. I would never go there again. read more

The pizza wasn't bad but unfortunately it was kind of soggy. When you think of thin crust, you think of crispy. If it was crispy it would definitely be 4 stars. Dominos thin crust is similar yet it is crunchy every time! It was tasty though. read more

Came in on a Friday night, was seated super quickly. Server Matt B was extremely helpful! He told us all of the specials and helped us figure out what to order. He was very attentive and made for a great experience! Will definitely be returning. read more

Recently visited the new location, I'm a fan of their Levittown place already and I have to say - it's even nicer. Had dinner with my neighbors, great fun lively place. Cocktails were top notch I recommend the cosmo. Had the chopped chicken salad, meatball pizza, pretzel bites and rikos wings, great special sauce. Loved it all. If you're looking to watch a game there's no bad angle to view all the tvs. Staff is friendly and service was quick. Family friendly and they have a great take out window as well. read more

Riko's is not your typical NY pizza, it is an exceptional thin crust pizza that is addictive, spice it up with there home made hot oil! The wings are also amazing, they are baked not fried, Nashville and teriyaki are my favorites! so happy they have opened a second location now i have two locations to get my fix read more

Got the best hot oil pizza from Rikos. Alex is the best bartender. Super friendly and talkative.

Mariel is super helpful! The hot honey pizza is delicious! This place is so nice to sit in!
