Well two for two,,, perfect Saturday night dinners! Last week and this week. Definitely great food and exceptional service. Thank you Felecia R. for making our Saturday experience a good one.

The food was great, havent been in awhile, the wrap i had was better than other places for sure

The food was good and the atmosphere was great.

Good liver & onions. Generous portion with baked potatoes. Lots of choice on the menu.

Server Jessica K was excellent, friendly and helpful, very professional!

My Favourit place. Good sized menu and prices are reasonable

Great food, great service. Great prices.

Awesome food and enviroment. Highly recommend

Good food and clean!

Nice place...nice staff, I will be back! Lots of choices on the menu!

Awesome food at awesome prices!

This place may still look and feel like its from 2003, but that s not to say its a bad thing. Food is consistent, fairly priced. Just wish their fries also weren t from 2003. Those could be updated

We ordered the baked fish which I ve had in the past and was amazed at how small it was and cold on the end , it also didn t taste like haddock. My husband had ordered the spaghetti and meatballs which barely had enough sauce to cover the pasta on it. When asked how our food was we commented on the size of the fish and she was nice enough to explain that had it been a fish fry it would have been much bigger, of course it would have since it would have been buried in breading . We realize that all prices have gone up but considering what we paid for and what we got it was very disappointing. Regret not taking a picture.

My son and I entered Ricki Jos on Canada Day around 5 p.m. to have dinner. Was met at the door by the hostess who was telling the party of 3 ahead of us she couldnt seat them right now as a bunch of people had come in at once and we couldnt be seated because the servers were too busy. There were 3 servers who didnt look rushed off there feet despite what hostess said. Lots of empty tables about inside and outside too. She finally sat the party of 3 then started to clean other tables leaving us to stand at the front door for several more minutes. Finally my son and I just left. Why couldnt we sit down and wait till a server could serve us instead of standing. Terrible hosting skills making us wait for over 15 minutes when there were plenty of tables to sit at. We dined at Kelleys. Great food and service, got sat immediately.

Service was poor (male waiter)

Decided to come here for dinner after seeing good reviews. Was very disappointed by the food and the service . The quality of the food did not reflect the high prices and the service needs improvement . Will not be coming back . Very underwhelming experience :(

This used to be our go to spot. We were disappointed with the gratuity already added to the bill, and its getting super pricey. Our food came out cold and 2 dishes werent even cooked fully. Im hoping this was just a fluke because Id sure miss visiting here - its been my favourite restaurant for years.

Food was fast, hot and tasty! Good service, friendly, nice atmosphere. Best coconut pie ever!!

Visited Rickijos one day for dinner last week. Sorry posting late. Had the chicken taco salad and sticky toffee pudding for desert. Sue was our server and everything was fantastic! She told us all about the wing specials and we will definitely be back soon to try them out!

Went there for lunch today our server was amazing shout out to Karen you were amazing funny and helpful thanks you are the reason I would come back

Rickijos has the best chicken wings Ive ever had! Get them breaded, and go on Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday when they have the special. They have a bunch of different flavours, all of them are great. So tasty! Update: seven years later and these are still the best wings Ive ever had Kid-friendliness: They have a kids menu and high chairs, colouring pages and crayons.

The fries for soggy. Fish and chips where pricey considering what you got

Went to lunch with my son. Enjoyed our wings. Very tasty, but wish it wasnt limited to 15 wings only (wing special - Tuesdays) My son and I could have eaten a few more, especially to sample other seasonings. Good service, and nice restaurant to enjoy your meal.

Like the menu says, the best liver & onions in town. Well, thier absolutely right about that.

Ordered, waited for an hour, never got the food, left.

I had the chicken Cesar wrap and sweet potato fries. The portions were totally up to par. And the service was excellent.

Food was terrible, Dry pre cooked chicken tasted like the ones you get in a premade walmart salad. Cheaped out on all ingredients. Barely any fries or sauces. Fish was gross.

Tasteless...I ordered from Uber...got my chicken tacos...horrible. so disappointed ..its tasteless ..has spice..but tasteless. Def do not recommend...it tasted like wet mop... absolutely horrible Food

Went here for the first time for their steak dinner and was not disappointed. Steak was fat and juicy and cooked perfectly with nice side portions for the price, they also make amazing ceasers too which was a big plus. Our server was Sue and she was very friendly and kept coming back to check and see if everything was okay. I finally found my new go to for steak dinner! A++ service and food!

I love the atmosphere of this place! the drinks are amazing and so is the food

I ordered a burger, it came with no seasoning. Fries were good. The dessert was literally 2 bite brownies, icecream and whip cream. I could make better at home.

My family loves coming here! My son loves the kids meal menu, it has so many options! The prices are great, the staff is wonderful and the food is delicious! Highly recommended! Kid-friendliness: The kids menu has activities and they provide crayons so my son keeps busy, the kids menu is reasonably priced and has a meal with a drink and ice cream for after included. We love it here!

Mirtill and Ashley best bartenders best I ever had

Food is good. Selection not great for people with dietary restrictions.

Came in for an early dinner today. Food was great, and service was great. Very friendly people, especially the hostess Angie

20 Minutes before a server came to see us She forgot the water that was ordered I ordered the $16 meatball sub with a $5 upgrade curly fries poutine. My sub came out burned and the $5 curly fries looked like a kids fry. Sent the sub back. Came back and for $16 youd expect more than 3 tiny meatballs cut in half. My girlfriend ordered the Pierogi, they were hard as pucks, cold, covered in dirty black specs, the onions were overcooked and dirty and the bacon hard as a rock. No flavour whatsoever $17 and barely and pierogies. Food took over 25 minutes. Came in the door at 7:15, left at 8:40. Disappointed especially after 5 hours of driving. Used to love coming here years ago. Will not be back

Always good.

They have great food and the service was very good. It is fun and on a sat it was busy and a very good crowd. We didnt really wait and they understood my need for eating gluten free. I would go back anytime. Dietary restrictions: I have to eat gluten free and they were able to work with me and I had no issues.

Had a chicken ceaser wrap and put in special instructions hoping they would do it. Toss chicken in hot sauce first. They did!! So good! Food

This place serves delicious food for very low prices, its got nice decor, its got cheap drinks, why this isnt your new favourite spot is beyond me because it checks all the boxes. Seriously, this place is a hidden gem.

Absolutely amazing food and service! The breaded wings have a great crunch and the Canadian Club was terrific. Staff were friendly and service was quick. Even the (curly) fries tasted better than other places.

Best breaded wings in the Niagara Region

Great food and excellent service

Been going to RJs since it opened. Always great food at a reasonable price. Great value for the money and the grandkids love it

Good friendly service , menu has a great variety!! Wonderful company!! Happy Valentines Eve !! Steak dinner was fantastic

I locked my keys in my car in the parking lot. Sara, the waitress, contacted CAA and flagged them down. You can meet the nicest people anywhere.

Best crispy chicken ceaser wrap in the city, tossed in mild sauce makes it even better!!!! Everytime I come to town I have to stop by! Love it when Tayah serves me, it s always a great experience at Ricki Jo s!!!!!

This is a great medium priced restaurant. Most of the dishes are substantial and extremely well made. Ive eaten here many times and never been disappointed

Waitress needs to drop the attitude. For an extra $10.00, I could have gone to Mandarin or went somewhere else. Needs to be gutted.. it is out of date, and the bathroom was gross. Food : 1/5

The food was delicious (especially the garlic bread with cheese), served promptly and hot! We will definitely be back...soon!!

Very good Wings & Service too !

Portions are not of $ value. Ordered 1/2 order of sweet potato fries for almost $6 and within 3 bites, dish was clear. Theyre fries, make them plentiful!

Really cozy, home cooking kind of place. A great place to relax.

My landmark in st.catherines, there are special days to give discounts for wings or domestic beers but I m not sure when it is. Just go for it!! All the food here is delicious. If it doesnt taste good, I can say with confidence that the food just doesnt suit my taste. Is it Tuesday? One day is Wing Day and the other is Domestic Beer Discount Day, so if you get it right, you can have a more pleasant time. Thats it!

Rick Jo s is basically a St. Catharine s establishment. Been going here for years because the food and service are consistently well done. Had such a nice experience this evening with the best server Nicky - she truly made our visit for supper an above average experience. Sometimes all it takes to lift your spirits is a kind person who takes the time to make you feel important! Well done Nicky.

We were part of a group of 19 that had the room at the back of the restaurant which automatically came with an 18% tip. That policy assumes that youll get good service, which our table of 5 didnt. Our server only had us to take care of, which she didnt; not checking on us even once. My order was incorrect and when she was told about it, denied, with attitude, that Id ordered what I actually wanted. Another order of the 5 took another 15 minutes after everyone had theirs. While the meal was good, the service was, most definitely not worth the 18% automatic tip. Not impressed.

Fish was very good and the baked potatoes was excellent other than the small amount of sour cream. Liver and onions was okay with baked potatoe was very good.. Good portions. However the mixed pre frozen veggies were horrible. You know how over ripened peas taste. Bottom line poor veggies. Over $7.50 for two pops??? Not a second time. Parking: Close parking and lots of spaces.

Our all time go to for a dinner out

Fish and chips. Used to be very tasty. Today it was just fried batter, with very little fish. Parts were hard to chew as it was overdone. So disappointing for $20. Great server!

I always love this place for a great meal and a wide variety of options. My go-to is normally breaded wings and curly fries. Unfortunately, I recently ordered for Uber Eats and for $7, received about 6 French fries. The portions are significantly smaller and the prices are almost 3x as high: This order was super disappointing.

Bugars should be homemade not frozen shaped burgers just sayin I can cook frozen ones at home

I love my wings, and I love Ricki Jos wings...but...the other night, my regular best foodie friend and I went for our weekly get together to try some new grub, or in this case, old reliable for wings. She ordered 10, extra saucy med, extra crispy. I ordered 10 Cajun, hot sauce on the side. My order had 15 petrified wings, as dry as the Sahara desert, and there were 15 of them...I could only handle eating 4 of them since they were dry and hard. There was almost no moisture in them at all!!! Not to mention one of the rudest servers I had ever met. She literally tossed our stuff on the table! Now, I get my bill, and I was charged for 15 wings, an extra $8, and I only ate 4!!! They were too hard! I am done with Ricki Jos and will never go back!

Love this place. Perfect vibes, amazing food and top notch service. We will definitely be back!

The food was OK. The fries were a little overdone. The salad was HUGE! The waitress was very friendly!

First time eating here, food was pretty good, service was friendly. I would return again.

Both my wife s food and mine were cold when served. Our gravy was congealed, Our mashed potatoes were cold. Her turkey and my liver were cold and dry. My wife was served a pot of hot water without tea bag. My liver wasn t tender and definitely the worst in town. I ordered a second beer that never came. Slow service. An expensive meal with poor quality and service. This place has gone down hill and their prices up. Vegetarian options: Only vegetable was corn which I can t eat

Amazing restaurant.

Was trying to order on Uber eats for my family and have sweet potato fries as upgrade instead of regular fries. They didn t have it as an option on there to click, so I asked the lady if I could choose a different upgrade with the same price increase and just have her notify the kitchen. She said no. They lost a $150 order. Any other restaurant I ve called to alter an order and pay an upgrade through a different button/item has had zero issues so I m not sure why this was a problem.

Absolutely loved or open faced hot turkey dinner!! Spinach dip with baked pita was one of the best in town! PLUS HOMEMADE COCONUT CREAM PIE!! We will definitely be back!!

Super friendly staff! I love this place!

Great place. Huge restaurant so if you want to do an event, check it out. The day we went they had mushroom soup. It was home made and delicious. Everything was great, the service, food and atmosphere. This was my first time and Im glad I went. Will be back.

Relaxed and great.

Ordered a grilled chicken greek salad for take out as I was on my lunch break from work. Restaurant was not busy when I arrived. Staff was friendly but the chicken was so hard and overcooked I couldnt eat it. The salad was mostly ice burg lettuce. Barely anything else in it. The place has gone down hill. Very disappointed. Wish I had taken a pic like other review below because sadly mine was worse than hers.

Decided on rickijos for dinner tonight so glad we did food and service was excellent! The food ever better.. I had beer chipotle burger fries with a Greek salad, was so good hubby had Souvlaki he said it the best hes had! If youre in area, I recommend that you give them a try, you will not be disappointed.

Waiting 40 minutes for burgers and fries upsetting

Never had bad experience here. Always good food ! Staff is fantastic. Manager came by our table to check on our group, was very nice

The pierogies are bomb AF.

You have to try the Taco Salad was amazing

Went for lunch with some guys from work first they messed up my order, then I had one of the worst burgers I ve ever had, bacon on the burger was so dry hard I couldn t even bite through it ( chip a tooth worthy ) definitely not fresh bacon and a frozen patty told them about the bacon and didn t seam to care wouldn t go back even for a free meal

I took my family out for lunch. I had the 10 oz steak, cooked to perfection. My kids had their usual dish. We enjoyed the food, it was great! The service was also great. Staff were friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere was calm and relaxing.

Always a top pick of mine! Food is amazing and great portions for the price !!! Great family restaurant. highly recommend.

Great burgers and spinach dip!! Saturdays there is a great burger specials and $4.50 pints all day! Food

Best coconut cream pie

Food was so good and really friendly staff, great prices...will definitely be back!

Awesome people great service

Bought 4 lbs of chicken wings Just pieces of fat smothered in Franks red hot. Worst experience . Do not recommend. Food

EXCELLENT service! My daughter spilled her drink and our server helped cheer her up and even drew her a picture during a busy dinner time. Cant wait to go back! Kid-friendliness: Very family friendly!

Very, very disappointed with their chicken quesadilla for $15. It was a cheese quesadilla with 2 small pieces of chicken per triangle. It wasnt even shredded chicken, Not even a full chicken breast for $15...totally over priced. It should be $8.99. I was there last week for the 1st time since covid and was so impressed with their beef dip for the same price, I should have just ordered it again. Dont waste your money on the chicken quesadilla unless they fix it.

We asked to sit outside the hosts said no right there we werent even going to stay. Then we asked our server she told us we could. The food was wonderful. Their french onion soup is the best so far. However their lack of cocktail making needs some work. Asked for an amaretto sour l, got a whisky sour that wasnt even a sour tasted like flat bar lime watered down. So giving them benefit of the doubt I asked for a Malibu rainbow thinking this drink would be colorful as it should be. It was not it was creamy, the waitstress / bartender said it should taste like orange Creamsicle... no it tasted like tanning lotion. As a mixologist the bar / cocktail making needs some work & more attention to detail or dont have creative cocktails if they cannot be made correctly. Overall the food was great , Ill be back but I wont order cocktails Ill stick to the basics.

Our server Mirtle went to great lengths to be sure we had a wonderful experience for our first time at Rickjos ..the food was great and well proportioned. We will be back. Food

Food was very good. They just need to get rid of the frozen veggies.

Rickijos is a place we often go with my partners family and it is a favourite for a reason. Very reasonably priced beer, and really solid menu. They are another spot in town that has great chicken fingers, but there are other items on the menu that are bigger standouts. Namely, the perogies. Right now I have not been able to find a place that does better perogies in St. Catharines/Niagara region. The fish and chips here were also good, and the portion size was really good. Lastly, dont leave without having a slice of coconut cream pie for dessert. I dont even like coconut and I have to have a slice when I go. Service is always great!

Parking: Its in a plaza with many stores Food

Not worth it

Always love coming here for diner. Been a regular customer for over 30 years. The roast beef sandwich is the best around. I have moved to Cambridge, but still come here every time I am in town since my family still lives here. Food is always amazing and the servers are always so nice and take great care of us! I recommend this place to all my friends heading to niagara!

Erin was awesome tonight! She has amazing customer service skills and we appreciated her attentiveness and humour. A great experience.

Nice family place to go for dinner.

My favourite place

Absolutely love this gem of a place! Ashley always makes a visit worth while whith amazing service and always a warm smile. Have never been let down on the food, and the drink prices great as well. Highly recommend! keep up the good work

We love this place. Great food, great service. A favourite for our family.

Great meal and friendly efficient service. The atmosphere is laid back and casual.

Good, basic food at a reasonable price. Nothing wrong with that!

Great selection of food options

Wait staff here are always great but I m happy to say Kaitlyn (I hope I spelled that right) took it up a notch. Every little request malt vinegar for my fries, whatever it was a joy for her to go get that for us. We we tempted to invite her to sit with us, we felt so comfortable with her like we knew her before we walked in the place. Good portions here and great tasting. I enjoyed the French onion soup. Very nicely done and with lots of cheese the way I like it. Sirloin is a good choice of entree and I like the fact that they err on the side of caution when grilling it so in places it may be a bit more rare than you expect but that s perfectl for me because I love my steak and usually get stuck with something overcooked. The beer chipotle sauce on the cheeseburger was also delicious and not too peppery. If you re normally one to shy away from that; dont be. Fries could be a little more crispy but you can order them that way. Lots of choice on the menu. Oh, another favourite is the spinach cheese dip. Don t miss out. Big place with several TV s showing live sports throughout but it s thankfully not noisy, making for a relaxing meal. I plan to get the chicken wings next time, they re said to be a customer favourite. Wheelchair accessibility: From what I could see, several handicap parking spots near the entrance. It s all on one level with lots of space around several tables so it s ideal for those with a walker or in a wheelchair.

I loved the atmosphere, staff and the food wad spectacular. I cant wait to go back.

Best (breaded) wings in Canada. Kid-friendliness: High chairs and kids menu available Food : 5/5 |

Amazing wings, just the right size, crispy not soggy and rubbery. Will be back.

The place was packed, and the wings were just as remembered long ago, they where great. No wonder the place has been there forever. Great deals, great variety, good portions, always a special

Always great food and service.

Great place for family or friends ! Amazing food and great staff! Food

Dinner was subpar and was the special of the day. Watery spaghetti

Place has been around a long, long, long, long time Food consistently good and made to order Food

Service was rushed and rude. My son spilled his water (5 years old) and the waitress was so visibly annoyed with him, he barely ate his dinner feeling so uncomfortable. I will never go back to this place again. I am disgusted by the way we were treated. I would give ZERO stars if that was an option for service.

Very nicely decored and clean. Our waitress was very accommodating, helpful, and patient. There were four of us, and I had the chicken Parmigiano with the homemade tomato sauce, which was very good...not greasy. However, a vegetable such as coleslaw would have felt that the meal was more balanced, although maybe salad was a side option that I didnt give her the opportunity to share.

The food was disappointing. Half a dry chicken breast seasoned with cajun on a lackluster bun.

Dropped by here to meet up with a friend and have a pint. Awesome service and a great atmosphere.

Chicken Quasadia was awesome!

Love Ricki Joe s. Great food for descent price. Always great service. Been a customer sinds they opened. Vegetarian options: Yes on menu. Wheelchair accessibility: Parking for Wheel chair and easy entrance access

It is sure not the way it used to be

Best wings in town!

Awesome old-school decor and vibe, delicious food, perfect fries. Meatball sub was incredible.

place used to be great for wings, but i had a few experiences of getting my breaded wings a bit too undercooked. rest of menu is pretty good.

Food was good and the staff were friendly. Did notice that the appitizers are a bit pricy for what you get. Had an order of cauliflower bites, only had about 6 small pieces, and it cost around $8. Soup was very good, as were the sandwiches and wings.

The food was awesome awesome I must go

Ordered take out and was sadly disappointed Turkey club wrap was sparce only had 1 piece turkey, wrap was not grilled and do not think there was cranberry in that mayo, also, not great portions of fries. Pretty sure it used to have shredded cheese as well. Think the deep fryer oil needs to be changed out more often :( Sorry for the bad review but we will not be returning.

great food and great prices melissa was our server she was awesome 10/10

Bad service very slow in the kitchen

Absolutely delicious food, excellent customer service

Nice atmosphere, friendly service, good food, at fair prices.

Ordered take out from here. Taco Salad and Meatball Sub. Was delicious. Best part was the packaging and how they took the extra care to wrap hot and cold items separately, tons of condiments, and super fast from the time I called in.

Very good food normal pricing, good service

Best Wings in town!

Staff was pleasant. Food was good, prices fair..

Menu was... Huge. Some options were great, some were just okay, others were sub-par. Service was good, food came out quickly and was hot. I think the restaurant needs to modernize the menu while cutting half or more of the menu items. I believe the menu size isnt sustainable and the variation of the quality of items shows. Loaded baked potato soup 7.5/10 Medium wings 3.5/10 Spaghetti and meat sauce 8.5/10 Turkey sandwich 5.5/10 Poutine 7.5/10 Spinache dip 8/10 French onion soup 7.5/10 Chicken quesadilla 7/10

Restaurant is very cheap and very taste meal. Iam excatly recommand

Parking: Plenty of parking

Great wings but the rest of the menu is ok

It is my daughters birthday so Im glad the food she ordered was good. My husband didnt really like what he had. He said its not a place hed ever go back to. I didnt like what I got either. Wish they wouldnt put their hands/fingers on plates when bringing them to the table with meals or as a side plate. Also dont carry the tray anywhere near shoulder area which is by hair and dont talk while over plates for obvious reasons. There are a couple other things I wont bother talking about. We likely wont go back. The only way we would end up there again is if we are out with others and get out voted on where to eat. On the positive side of things my daughter enjoyed her chicken salad and we ordered drinks which were really good .

This place is fantastic. Been going there for years and never had a bad time. Good food (try the broccoli cheddar bites), good service, cant ask for anything more.

Everybody loved their meal. Waitress was awesome

Food was awesome! And just walking in we were greeted so friendly

The food was good but the service was lacking. The waitress we had was acting like she didnt want to be there and like we were annoying her by being there.

Wait times are dependent on whether the waitresses are too busy socializing with each other. Food portions have definitely shrank but not the price.

The few times Ive been here not disappointed. Service has been great. Menu has a variety of items reasonably-priced for the substantial portions. A go to spot for when Im in St Catherines. Food

Great food and reasonably priced cold beer

Ive tried almost everything on the menu, always good!

Always a good meal. Nothing fancy, just good food, great service, and a reasonable price!

Mom and I had lunch there today. Service and food was excellent. I really appreciated how accommodating they were with my mom having a walker. They seated us so she could have her walker close by

This place has been around forever free service great food nice atmosphere great place to go

Food is very average. Staff are pleasant and easy to deal with.
