Ricky's Café Coquitlam Centre

New public update: the inner looks really beautiful and fresh and open. the service was okay, they obviously still have some knicke worked out. I had the filled French toast and my partner had the chicken strips. I wish the French toast was a little longer, but still tasty. chicken strips are always amazing here. the fresh flowers on the table were a beautiful note. eating was really good. service was only in order when considering that we were the only people in the restaurant. a nice menu and good value. comes back definitiw.

Great service, so attentive and they keep it running fast and clean. they need a little more practice in the eier cookery department, as our whole had done a bit more table. but otherwise happy. bonus my children pancakes were free!

We (my wife, kids and myself) visited Ricky's Cafe on Boxing Day at lunch time. It was fairly busy but the serving staff was efficient and polite. We ordered a couple of chicken and waffles and also beer-battered fish and chips, plus drinks and 2 decaf coffees, prices were reasonable. Everything was tasty, we really enjoyed the food, but there are a few points that I sincerely wish are improved: 1. The men's washroom was stinky and dirty, also it has a linen waste basket that looks gross. 2. The overall cleanliness of the place could be improved, the table was a little sticky and with a weird smell, as well as the floors. Nothing too bad here but improving it would upgrade the overall experience and give more confidence. 3. We ordered decaf coffees but when we were offered refills the first time we assumed it was also decaf but it wasn't, it really matters since I'm oversensitive to caffeine and its effect affects me for a full day. The second refill I declined and my wife accepted but I had to point out that it was decaf so then the server went to get it. As I said, I really wish these concerns are addressed since I really like their food and having this place right in the mall is so convenient.

Fast Fresh? Sorry guys, 45 minutes to get food to the table is not fast . We came in to get a quick dinner while shopping, and ended up having our kids out way past bedtime because the meal took so long. And the food was not great quality... it was edible, but the burger did not have any seasoning or any attention paid to the way the flavours combine... for an $18 burger, do yourself a favour and go to The Keg or Cactus Club Cafe, where they make chef quality food for the same amount of money. As for the fish chips... skip it. Where it should be light, fluffy and crispy, we found the batter to be dense, spongy, soaked in frying oil, and extremely salty not a very pleasant feeling in the mouth. On the plus side, our server was very personable, friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant had all the amenities it needed (high chairs, clean washrooms, etc. , but that will not make up for the mediocre food at gourmet price, and long wait times. We will not be returning.

Diner was very quiet upon arrival with full cooks in the kitchen and one person front of house. Simple dishes took a longer than average time to be served. Both dishes came out inadequate. One dish was completely unsatisfactory only a bite eaten and was not approved with being taken off the bill until I got the manager on the phone which is unacceptable, this should not have needed a managers approval. Don’t waste your time or money here.
