They have really great food but it’s their customer service that will keep us coming back! After ordering tonight, they called us because a large rush came through and wanted to make sure we were enjoying it. They offered to make us fresh order if we weren’t satisfied. We appreciate their kindness and going the extra mile, we will continue to come back!! 🍕❤️

My fiancée and I like to try different local places around us. Stopped into ricos and the service was great. The woman working the counter was so friendly and memorized everyone by name. Friendly environment and great food. We got the buffalo chicken sub and the turkey provolone panini. We did try a slice of pizza as well. Food was cooked to perfection.

I stopped in to get something fresh/tasty instead of standard fast food. Unfortunately the menu is only posted at checkout on the counter and when the guy cooking/working seemed irritated I didn’t know what I wanted I just asked for a piece of pizza. It was the only thing I could see. It wasn’t great either. 🤷🏼‍♀️Hopefully if you are new here you know what to order. Go for your favorite sub because I assume this is where they shine. The pizza slice was under $5 at least.

Ma and Pa style eatery with pizza and some dank ass sandwiches. The corned beef as well as the pastrami are sliced paper thin and STACKED. Very happy with the food I got for the price.

Top notch sub. The staff was super friendly! Highly recommend stopping in!

Delicious American / Italian hole in the wall type of spot. We stopped here as a pit stop on our road trip and were not disappointed.

Just ate here for the first time. This spot is phenomenal. Rico was awesome, sandwich was great and the prices made sense. I would definitely recommend trying it.

THE FOOD IS GOOD BUT PRICING IS UNUPDATED OR THERE ARE HIDDEN FEES. There is a something messed up I noticed when I went there twice.
A zingy? Chicken sub on their menu costs $10.50. I order and the total comes out to around $12.71? or so? (I payed 13 and got a quarter and some pennies in change) That doesn’t make sense given Michigan’s sales tax of 6%. If everything was correct, the sub would’ve cost only $11.13. So how did it get to around $12.71?

The answer is they must’ve forced a 15% tip or the prices on the menu are wrong.
Option 1: Forced Tip pricing
10.50 + (10.50 * 0.15 tip) + (10.50 *0.06 sales tax) = 12.705.
Close enough to the answer. And it also answers why they didn’t give me a receipt after ordering if so.
Option 2: Menu prices are wrong and the sub is actually $12
12.00 + (12.00 * 0.06 sales tax) = 12.72
Very close or spot on. I just didn’t count the pennies so actual total might be 12.71 or 12.72.

This is pretty dishonest pricing. There’s two reasons for this price discrepancy. Either the sub is $12 and sales tax (12.72) or it’s 10.50 with an effective 21% tax (12.71).

Either way it’s not updated or disclosed so if you go here be prepared to spend a dollar or two more than what you think the actual price is. Good Sub though.

IDK what y'all are waiting for. If you're sleeping on this place, it's time to wake up. The food and prices are amazing and Jessica is the actual best! Give em a shot, you won't regret it. We had pizza and the Reuben and both were amazing. The nostalgia is real and the service can't be beat.

What a pleasant place this is. Amazing food with a heavy hand in home cooked food. Very friendly and the customers all seem to know each other. This is a must stop, especially when you're already enjoying a day of moderate travel and looking for peace along the way. They also carry lots of extra good extras. Bravo!!!
