Each day of our two day college buddies reunion got off to a great start due in great part to Kelsey’s energetic and engaging service. All food ordered by the eight of us was well prepared, tasty, and presented nicely, but Kelsey made our breakfasts special, even knowing what we had ordered the previous day. Only two warnings: if you want decaf be prepared to wait because it comes from the coffee shop on the other side of the lobby and think twice before ordering grits this far north.

It was my first time dining at Miss Ricky’s on Saturday night. My cousins pick the place for dinner. I’m so glad they did. It was fabulous. This restaurant is in the Virgin Hotel. We started out with cocktails, a couple of old fashioneds, a dirty martini and a comfortably numb. The old-fashioned was so tasty, with tobacco bitters and tea in the cocktail. The comfortably numb with the mezcal and grapefruit was smoky good. The table share the housemade focaccia served in a little skillet. My husband had the tortellini special for Saturday night. The tortellini was perfectly cooked to al dente, and it had added texture from the crispy parmesan. I had the charred octopus with purple rice and avocado purée. This was amazing! The table shared the tiramisu for dessert, which was so creamy and light. Our server was Omar, and he went out of his way to make sure we got out on time to see our show at the Chicago Theater. Since we loved this restaurant, so much, I made reservations the next morning for brunch just for my husband and I. Maddie was so sweet and made sure that we were seated at around a booth as requested. This time our server was Kelsey. She was engaging and friendly and provided very good service, always checking back on us. Kelsey made sure my cappuccino was topped with a bear in the foam to put a smile on my face. She also made my husband one of the best Bloody Mary’s. My husband had the chicken and waffles, which was insanely good. The waffle was light and fluffy and that chicken was tender with a very crispy coating. I had the Ricky’s Omelette, which was an egg white omelette with vegetables served with fresh fruit. I also had a side of crisp bacon. The service was great at both dinner and brunch, the food was delicious and I loved the atmosphere, especially the round booths. This is a small restaurant, so make sure you make reservations. We’ll definitely be back. There’s so much on the menu that I want to try everything!

Had an excellent breakfast/brunch with our friendly server Kelsey. There was 4 of us. We got in quickly. Food took hardly anytime to arrive at our table. We had a variety of eggs Benedict, peanut butter in country sourdough, and the lox. Everyone enjoyed the food and our server was so friendly that made our experience even more enjoyable. Would definitely come back when visiting again.

We arrived without reservation, and they offered us to sit outside. We accepted (great mistake). We were waiting for 45 minutes without any assistance. After we and the clients on the next table complained twice, they finally came to take our order. The explanation from the manager, our server was too busy inside. Finally, our appetizer came after more than 1 hour and 15 minutes of been seated. The appetizer, ibericos bruchetta was delicious. The lasagna entrée in an Italian restaurant is usually a big plate, but in this case the size was like an appetizer for $29. My wife risotto Frutti di Mare was good. Due to my experience, I definitively do not recommend this restaurant.

The service was exceptional. Our waiter Stoli was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the food they served. He guided us through the menu, providing insightful recommendations. Stoli’ professionalism and friendly demeanor added an extra touch of hospitality to the evening. We will definitely return. Thanks again for a great experience.

This spot is amazing, but the services is what took the cake. I came in with my husband luggage had been lost so I was already in a crappie mood. We came in and I didn’t care what I ate at this point I just was hungry and upset. Christine provided great suggestions she continued to check in with us and went above and beyond. I left my phone in the hotel and she offered to call the airport to see where my luggage was. I appreciate her so much this was our first time in Chicago. She continued to add value to our service gave us a few spots to visit while we are here and made sure we were happy. Thank you. Also the food was fresh and fast.

Tony was the best! He should be managing one of these restaurants! Tony knew the menu and was able to recommend items based on our tastes and preferences. He was so freindly and personable. I wish I could take him home to Denver with me!! Love him! If you're in Chicago, this is a great place to eat! Did is amazing... the lamb with risotto is too die for!

I seldom write reviews for anything, but if I do it's probably to complain. This time I am reviewing because Miss Ricky's food was delicious AND Tony's service and personal attention to us throughout our casual, relaxed brunch was so far beyond the level of service I've come to expect from anything but a fine dining restaurant (and even then, Tony was still better!). I don't visit Chicago often, but when I do, I'm looking forward to returning to Miss Ricky's as a regular - I'm sure all the other staff are great, but I would love to see Tony again. Thanks, Miss Ricky's!

A part of the Virgin hotel.Food was fantastic. Interesting menu. The standard breakfast choices and also cream cheese stuffed french toast sourdough waffle and pancakes. They will reopen for dinner soon after gradually increasing service after Covid. Lamar, welcomed us with a big smile, was exceptionally friendly and engaging. We will be back!

This eatery is in the Virgin Hotel, and thus perhaps is an eponymous restaurant of Sir “Ricky” Branson? Or is Ricky a wife, mother, sister, or other?      But let’s get to the good stuff—meaning atmosphere and food. Both are delightful, and without the rather steep prices of nearby upscale dining experiences.       The dining area is rather small; I counted about 15 tables, but by no means did it feel cramped or constricted. We had a perfect server, Pierre, not overbearing, not neglectful, who knew everything about the menu—and also the neighborhood.       As for food quality, selection, and presentation—a 9 of 10, with the 1-point markdown because my otherwise excellent noodle dish had an okay quantity of bacon, but the promised asparagus consisted of at most 12 splinters of this veggie, collectively unlikely to have weighed an ounce. But this was offset by a chocolate cake that was the most intensely “chocklety” of any I’ve ever had.

My friend and I were in town Thanksgiving weekend to celebrate her birthday. We decided to have breakfast at Ms. Ricky’s and Our experience and the service were simply unparalleled. Angel (Christa ) was our server and worked hard to make sure everything was perfect. They even delivered a cookie skillet to my friend for her birthday which made us nervous because she has a peanut allergy. Aaron (Micah) went to extra lengths to ensure it was peanut-free and safe. The food was amazing. I had the shashuka and my friend had the Farmer’s plate. Eat the bacon and potatoes. 🤤 If you have the ability, ask for Angel!! You’ll be in good hands.

We had been in Chicago for two days and everything up to Miss Ricky’s had been great. Unfortunately, the run ended there. Upon arrival, we noticed that the noise level was so high that we had to repeat everything we said to the hostess twice. Eventually, we were shown to a “couch” with room for five with a single chair even though we were two! After changing tables, we ordered two coffees - a double espresso with cream and a Mochachino. When the double espresso arrived, it had no cream. For five minutes, we waited for the cream until the double espresso was cold. Five minutes after that, we asked for the cream, which required a meeting between several staff members in the kitchen to determine how to proceed. Eventually, the cream arrived but our sense was that it took an effort considered insurmountable by the staff. We then ordered two meals - the Shakshouka and the fried chicken with waffle. The fried chicken with waffle arrived 15 minutes later but the Shakshouka arrived 15 minutes after that. By the time the Shashouka arrived, the fried chicken and waffle was cold. When the Shakshouka arrived, the eggs were raw and it had to be sent back. Even the second time, it was terrible and tasted like an egg in barbecue sauce. We had spent several weeks in Istanbul having Shakshouka every morning and this bore no resemblance to that.

At Miss Ricky’s you find a classy yet comfortable and friendly atmosphere. The menu card has well known selections but with a twist and Tony gave best service one could wish for. I will definitely come back

We were staying at the hotel and we decided not to go out for dinner. We were pleasantly surprised by eating at Ricky's. Our waitress, Brooky, was friendly and professional as well as efficient in taking and delivering our orders. The food was also excellent. One noteworthy fact: Eastern oysters on the shell were $2.00 each, a very reasonable price. Needless to say, we indulged ourselves.

This was our second time staying at the adjoining Virgin Hotels Chicago this year, and, after our first experience at this restaurant for dinner, we were definitely looking forward to trying breakfast for the first time. My wife and I ate here twice, each time getting different options to test out the menu. We had Stoli twice; once, he was training a new server (who did very well!). He did an awesome job, and it shows that he loves what he does. The food came out correctly; we never had less than a half-cup of coffee, and we got to have a short conversation with him when he had a couple of minutes free. On top of the great food and service, the location is ideal (north Loop). We'll definitely be back again.
