Good food, great service. They have to get out of the Covid malaise and clean up their front yard. The Sun is out, temps are warm would highly recommend this place.
Place is very clean, organized and cozy. Server was friendly and courteous.I ordered a chicken soup with rice, and a breakfast burrito. My mother ordered a regular bacon, egg and homefries with toast.Burrito was decent, nothing special about it in particular. Same with regular breakfast. We both ordered orange juice with our meals.Soup was warm, but was definitely not chicken. Redish brown broth, vegetables and seemed the dark meat cubes tasted saltier and more like beef chunks.I mentioned this to the server and she said she could take it off the bill if i didn't want it. That their chicken soup was "different".I still wanted a warm broth as part of my meal, so I said thank you and that it was fine.Overall bill came to about 30ish.Overall better prices and better staff than Colony diner down the road, but wouldn't go out of my way to eat breakfast here. More competitively priced breakfast with better seasoning, ingredients and options in Meriden.
Generous portions that tasted great and served quickly. I would have preferred the diner to be a little bit warmer, but everything else was great!
The waitress my friend and I had was phenomenal. The food was delicious and came out fast, granted it wasn't busy.
Family owned. Great food, large portions wonderful service. Very friendly
I couldn’t believe how fast our omelettes came out. The food and service were excellent.
Easily one of the best diners I've been to. The portion sizes are huge. You will definitely get your money's worth. Located walking distance to Super Walmart. I'll be returning in the future.
Betsy is the BEST!! She practically runs the floor by herself....We keep coming back for her!
overcooked my omelete and threw my toppings on top of omelet instead of cooking inside overcooked eggs.
Went to ricks the other morning for the first time. When you go in, it’s quaint and quiet. Visually there’s some things that can be improved to the establishment like the brown water stains on the drop ceiling etc… otherwise the layout is decent. Our waitress was friendly and quick. We ordered the waffle, eggs, home fries, bacon, and toast. Here is my honest review: the waffle was sub par. It was not fully cooked inside and the butter they serve is not quality more of a bland Margarine. The eggs were your typical diner style along with the bacon and toast. However, the toast would’ve been good with a good butter not that cheap restaurant depot brand. The problem I have is with the home fries. Now home fries are generally prepped 1-2 days ahead and they heat and go them per order. The home fries were not cubed, not sliced, not shredded… , kind of a mash up of a really bad hack job. It’s not pretty to look at. Usually home fries are par boiled, seasoned with onion powder salt pepper and a dash of paprika then thrown on the flat top to get that golden outer crisp & soft warm potato inside. This was not the case. These potatoes were drenched in paprika to the point where 1 that’s all you taste, and 2 so much so it turns your plate orange. You literally cannot taste potato & forget bothering to dip in ketchup because again it’s all paprika. More is not always more. Also the plates they serve the food on are massive. I mean unnecessarily large. Which ya know what, probably easier for the waitstaff to serve that way… but I’d rather get a smaller sized plate with actual quality food.
