* Comically Large Portions * Kind Service * One of a Kind Diner * Above Average Breakfast * Family Diner Aesthetic RJs main appeal and attraction are their ENORMOUS serving sizes. I tried the Gyro Omelette, which was packed full of meat and vegetables. My only caveat is to be aware of the amount of tomatoes they add - MAKE SURE TO ASK FOR LESS! They went a little overboard but after going back a couple of more times it hit just right. Hashbrowns were a bit salty and greasy. Overall, their breakfast was definitely above average flavor wise (surprising given the quantity)! I would strongly recommend their bakers bread, which is about an extra dollar surcharge. Service was top notch! They're all really kind and were constantly refilling my water. I've never had an issue with service here and the waitresses are all welcoming. RJs is always a must go!

We went on a Saturday morning. The wait to be seated was only about 10 mins. The staff and service were great. The ambiance was good but the booth seats were hard as a rock. The food came pretty quickly after ordering, considering how busy they were. Everything tasted really good.

We had breakfast, made it in time before a large rush. Delicious food and amazing service. Very generous portions. Bathrooms right next to the waiting area so it was completely blocked.

We went to RJs for lunch today. I ordered the RJ skillet and my wife got the cheddar cheese skillet. Both were very good and large filling portions. We like this place we've always have good service and the food is always good. If you havent tried RJ's you should stop by.

Stopped by for a later lunch. It was not too busy which was great. I would suggest coming here during their slower hours because they do get very busy. I had my usual cheddar cheese skillet and my husband had the Riches skillet. Every thing was good. I had leftovers. Their portions are large. If you haven't tried this place you are missing some good food.

We got together for brunch on a Sunday around noon, and I was not sure what to expect when we pulled into this place that came highly recommended by a member of our party. As we parked, we had a lady come up to us and ask us for a diaper. I gladly gave the diaper to her, and we proceeded into the restaurant. Walking in as a party of five, I was surprised to see how packed it was! There were at least three other large parties waiting as well, and we all stood shoulder to shoulder in the Front of House waiting to be seated. Initially, I was worried that the wait time would be ridiculous- but the turnover for tables was quicker than expected. We didn't wait longer than 10-15 minutes, with one family seated ahead of us. Our service was awesome. We were greeted right away; she took our drink order and did a great job at giving us time to look through the menu and come to a final decision. With 2 kids, 1 baby and 2 adults, we needed a little time to settle in! My 16-month-old son received so much love from the staff here. He was overwhelmed with joy due to the number of smiles, greetings and compliments they were giving him. He was enjoying their attention! Our table order included, one chocolate chip pancake, one eggs benedict with hashbrowns and veggies, one kids breakfast that had sausage, eggs and toast and two (I can't remember the name) of the dish that had scrambled eggs, sausage over onions, peppers and breakfast potatoes. The portions are very large! One pancake is the size of a large plate! You can order one dish for two people and be satisfied. We all went home with leftovers, as it was filling and delicious. This is one of my new favorite places in Minnesota! When we left, the lady that asked us for the diaper when we first arrived came up and tried to give us a couple dollars, but we assured her it was no problem and we proceeded to enter our vehicle. I mentioned that part, because a) I want to share the full experience and b) the family feel of this restaurant extends passed the walls, and overflows through the parking lot! I've never been asked for a diaper before, and I was so happy that I was able to be there for her when she was in need. I love the energy in this restaurant! Everyone had great energy, from the staff to the patrons, and I am excited to go back!

Good service, huge portions and a fresh look! We have been going here for years and it never disappoints. I love the Gyro Breakfast and often have leftovers. This place was a little dingy in the past but it looks like they recently added a new coat of paint.

R J Ritchie's is serious about breakfast! Multiple options, fresh ingredients, creative hearty creations. Come hungry or bring a friend, the portions are big enough to feed a family! Friendly diner vibe, I look forward to coming back next time I'm in the area. One star ding on the coffee but in all fairness I'm a coffee snob. Well done R J Ritchie's!
