Authentic Hainanese chicken rice, comforting hawker favourites, and flexible casual dining in North Adelaide.
Customizable Chicken Cuts and Preparations

Alice Cornhill Complete Bundled Set Meals
Chicken rice plates come as generous complete meals accompanied by fragrant seasoned rice, bok choy vegetables, fried egg, and savory soup.
$17 for the below plate which came with a side of soup, fried egg, and bok choy. Mostly boneless so was easy to eat. Choice between leg meat or breast meat was great too.
TheFluffyVillain Wok-Fired Hawker Specialties and Rich Laksa

Kwai Teow had a really nice wok hei flavour and the Laksa was filled with toppings!

Before you head over
Helpful tips on timing, parking, and ordering to make the most of your visit to Ricky's.
Plan Around Midday Downtime and Evening Rushes
Ricky's splits service between lunch and dinner with midday downtime usually running from 3:00 PM until dinner starts. Plan visits around these windows or arrive early before evening rushes when tables can fill up quickly.
Allow Extra Time for Street Parking
Parking along O'Connell Street in North Adelaide can be tight and difficult to find during busy periods. Allow extra travel time to find a spot when driving in to dine.
Customize Your Chicken Preparation and Cut
Take advantage of custom options by choosing between steamed or crunchy fried chicken and selecting your preferred cut, such as boneless thigh or breast meat.
