Riko's Pizza

Double G Jeff Grimaldos

You can never go wrong with Riko's. The food was very good. The server was very attentive as well. I took my family from overseas and they love it. The ambiance/atmosphere was great. I love that the back is like a mall. And has plenty of parking. We had 4 different kinds of pizza plus one sample platter.

I was here the other night for the first time ever, and I must say from the waitress to the decor the food everything was just amazing! The pizza is so delicious we had gotten the hot honey one and my sister got a regular classic cheese. Both were delicious!! We also got the sampler so that we could try a little bit of everything. Can’t even tell you which one was my favorite, because each item was all SOOO good but I am more of a wing person so I guess I’ll have to say the wings (Riko’s signature sauce) They were fireee! (And oven baked! ✅) lastly, the sangria is a must try! I will definitely be back again!

Sounds odd but great football specials. Buckets , drafts and BOGO hot dog and pretzels (mix and match)

Love Love the Caesar Salad pizza. Riko’s is top notch. The pizza is perfectly crunchy and the salad is flavorful. Kids friendly( had a pepperoni pie) that I brought Home,loved it too. Family went there on Thursday, also loved the food ( also had the Caesar salad pizza but a bit different) . Can’t wait to try the other pizzas as well. Lots of TVs that play sports, etc. Great service and atmosphere. Everyone Must Must try Rikos.

Service was quick and friendly, pizza was great, and restaurant was very clean plus plenty of tv’s for sports viewing. This may be sacrilegious but pizza here is probably better than a majority of pizza places on Long Island.

Riko’s is a fresh pizza and wings restaurant and bar, with a great location. The Riko sauce is a must try for the wings, and the wings have a flavor and crunch to them. Great for watching some games and food with friends or family.

Really good food with a bar/restaurant feel. All food cooked to order so it comes out nice and fresh. Thin crust pizza has a great crunch and the wings were cooked perfectly

One of the BEST thin crust pizza in NY ! I love the hot oil with red onions and spinach . This location is so clean and love the wood decor !!!! You must try it. The employees are very polite and friendly .

Perfect spot after a day at Jones beach. Comfortable outdoor seating.

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!

I grew up in brooklyn and absolutely SCOFFED at the idea of the pizza. But damn if that hot honey pizza didn’t turn me. It’s so so good! Delicious salad too — a real surprise for such an unassuming place. Lovely staff, great spot to grab a beer and chill after work. Will be back!

Rikos in Merrick is phenomenal! I had my 35th birthday party there and the staff was unbelievable. Attentive, kind, professional. Tyler was amazing to work with and did not miss a single detail. Jess the server was beyond helpful and friendly. Overall 10/10 experience and would do it again 100x over!!!

We love Rikos! Great spot to watch football and spend time with friends. The Rikos wings are super delicious and I love the pain pie. Workers are so nice and attentive.

We came to celebrate our daughter’s birthday and it was fantastic. The service was great and the food was delicious. I can’t wait to come back. See you soon Riko’s!

It’s not delivery, it’s Riko’s. Pizza tastes like an elevated digiorno pie. And sometimes that’s exactly what the doctor ordered. We usually get mikes hot honey pizza which is solid. Crust is thin, nice and crispy. Tried the philly cheese steak egg rolls which were ok. The egg roll shell was nice and crunchy, but we felt it should have had a more asian forward flavor and sauce. The sauce it came with felt like a mexican inspired salsa. Felt like too much mixing of flavor profiles and spices. Bar ambiance is good, could use a game like darts. Personal Rating : 6.1/10

I have to preface we love it here. I did not know that stinger peppers were put in the pies to show the difference between a regular pie and spicy pie. Also want to say I love spicy food. You need to warn people that that is put on the pies. I picked it offy pie thinking it was a green pepper. I licked my finger, and that was it. Extremely spicy.

Went to this place twice hoping the best for a new place in Merrick. 1st time, I do what I always do and order the recommendation, hot oil pizza and wings. Sounds good, get the food Pizza sucks, not really brick oven they make what day a “tavern style pizza” I thought was trash. Wings were pretty good so I decided to come back again by myself. So I went the second time and it 6 wings and a beer for lunch. The only saving grace of this place was the beer, fresh crisp and cold, but the wings were garbage.

The general atmosphere was fine. But staff so inept it’s really comical . Servers mid. But managers was the real problem. They need to upgrade the staff We saw a table of 19 year olds drinking 2 tables away from a table of four 22 -23 year olds who got denied alcohol service even through all 4 had valid NYS drivers Lic .. the place has a rep for serving underage. So how they turn away legal age patrons is a mystery. Oh and below I put $100 per person bc $0 wasn’t an option. We stormed out. Was not gonna pay them for Mid food especially not without drinks to make it seem better. We won’t be back. You should run away too. Lots of better places

I want to preface that I am 22 years old and have been to this restaurant multiple times. I went tonight with a few friends and we were denied because our IDs weren’t “up to standard.” If I can recall correctly, they used to let in 16 year olds every night. I am unsure how one of our IDs wouldn’t be “up to standard” when we are all of age, using NYS IDs which have gotten us through airports, background checks, job interviews, etc. Manager is an idiot and practically ran from us. I work in a restaurant and his behavior was appalling regardless of circumstance. Fix your system and staff. Will not be back.
