Ordered a turkey burger with fries. Very good and very friendly staff.

The best of the best avocado toast I’ve ever had in my life!! Looks like a huge portion, but salad is pretty light, the bread is not too hard as usually avocado toast is, and super easily to cut, the dressing is so tasty. Would love to be back when I travel to NYC again.

Lovely spot. I'm not here very often, but when I am in the neighborhood to visit my friends, this is my favorite place to get breakfast. The pancakes and bacon are fabulous and I have always gotten good service. I highly recommend.

The breakfast wrap was delicious. I didn't finish it all and heated it about two days later and it was still tasty. Highly recommend this diner. The staff was also very pleasant.

Very friendly service. Food here was exceptional. I judge mashed potatoes and they either use a very good quality instant mash or make it themselves but it seemed better than ihop mashed potatoes. Had their steak n eggs and it was delicious. Server was very friendly, and somehow knew we were new customers and took good care of us. For a place as busy as Jackson Heights, it was weird that they knew we haven't been there before. It felt they knew their customers and were very much involved in providing a good experience. I appreciate that. Try it out, food is good

I've been to rickys a few times now and every visit is a great experience. I don't come as frequently as I'd like, each visit has me looking forward to the next. Coming to Ricky's is a special treat. Everything is made fresh so it takes a little bit to get your food. They always refill your cup of coffee multiple times. In the past they even offered me steamed milk. My favorite part is they never rush you out the door which is lovely and pricing is extremely reasonable. This place should be cherished. Archived Review: I've been looking forward to trying this place. I just moved to the neighborhood and I am in a bunch of the jackson heights facebook groups. This guy darren & "racoon rich" have been torturing me with photos of there meals from here. I was in the mood to go out for breakfast and new instantly this was where I wanted to go. Phenomenal service and great food will definitely be back.

Great Happy Hour & Wings for the area. The guy serving was incredibly nice and welcoming. Honestly these wings took me back to my high school days. Never thought I would be able to taste wings like these again. I definitely will be back for the wings. Get the sauce on the side!

Loved this place, I went there twice while I was staying in Jackson Heights. The vegan choice is not big but what they had was good enough for me - especially the avocado on toast (no egg) it was amazing. I also had the vegan burger which was good. Great service from Barbara and the other ladies on both occasions. Recommend.

Many excellent dishes, very fresh and with generous portions. Dishes for any time of day. A super friendly, longtime neighborhood place, diner style. (Pictured - the beautiful Cobb salad, an excellent choice for these hot summer days, a meal in a bowl!)

I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious the avocado toast (and the iced coffee) was at Ricky’s. The servers are lovely as well. I’ve lived in the neighborhood a long time and just never stopped in. I’m glad I finally did!

Great place to grab a quick and tasty bite. Servicer was nice and a very relaxed atmosphere. Good for a brunch with a friend or laid back date.

Cucumber ginger ale - made to order by Barbara is sooo good as is Ricky’s black coffee. Homemade green hot sauce and fresh avocado added to the garden omelette hit the spot. So fresh - as is Barbara - you cannot miss this place when you visit Queens. Love it!

This place never disappoints. Great freshly cooked homemade food that's quality at its best. Owner is usually there working. Menu can vary with delectable tasty surprises. Salmon with cilantro lime rice was amazing. Price and the wait is worth it. That's how you know they make every dish to order with love and pride. A comfortable sitting area has a bathroom. Near the subway. Also has counter seating. Always friendly. Gd for breakfast lunch and dinner. When in Queens visit Ricky's Cafe you won't regret it.

I think that's enough for a restaurant that is proud of its own food. I saw people walking down this street happily eating out of the window. Finally, today I am eating here, and the customers' happy faces are not just the taste of the food. The bright face and kindness of the owner and staff make me feel like I am eating at home. I ordered today's soup, garlic oil spaghetti, and French fries. Oh, no! I don't eat cilantro, but I wouldn't have cilantro in it. If it weren't for cilantro, it would be a soup like clear beef soup in Korea. Garlic spaguettes are usually. But there is an important twist here. The moment Step mixes authority green hot sauce (like jalabino and avocado) with spaghetti, the taste changes. What a clean and light spaghetti. It's so delicious. Steph was right to try it instead of Tabasco. Freshly fried French fries taste savory and delicious as if fried in clean oil. I think there will be another reasonable price and good atmosphere

Nice setting, portions not that big. Overall it was OK. I prefer other diners in the area.

The quality of the food is very uneven. Well sized breakfast plates prepared fresh and cheerful service. The avocado toast was refreshing for being generous and not at all fancy. The pancakes on the other hand were salty and dry. The coffee was quite weak, but it tasted good enough when drunk together with eggs or spicy food. Service tends to be very slow. The only restroom has been permanently out of service, which is irritating.

Convenient location near Jackson Heights at 75th street and 37th Ave. I was looking for late breakfast around noon. I found this place on the way, street meter parking. No host, small place so we sat ourself. Waitress took our order, my kids ordered pancakes and 2 eggs Sunnyside up, they don't have home fries at that time so they pick fries. We also ordered French Toast and Salmon with scrambled eggs with whole wheat toast. I didn't like the way Scrambled came out. It looked like omelette but taste was ok. Service is ok.

I keep trying to give this place a chance and I'm always let down. Either it's empty and I get no service or the service is fine and the food is terrible. Way over priced- 3 flat pancakes for $6, and barely 1/2 plate of potatoes and eggs. I asked for cheese and it wasn't even melted. This is the last time I ever come here. I will spend the time to go up to Ihop - or Nevada Diner on Queens Blvd which is AMAZING. **the waitress tried to fix with more potatoes and she was very nice. I'm still not coming back but appreciated the fix. Toast was DRRRRY and never got coffee refill. Bummer

Avoid the shakes. It was more milk with chocolate syrup. The burger was cooked well but no flavor. The staff was nice, but did check in again until we were done. Will not be going back.
