• Pizzeria • Maroochydore

Tucked down a laneway, housed in an industrial building, you'll find our quirky pizzeria. Our vibe is super casual and we love to see our customers sharing pizzas, beers and enjoying life. Our space is ideal for large groups, but also for families and couples. Were all about the pizza! Pizza Napoletana is authentic pizza from Naples, and we make it according to the generations-old technique....with just a little of our own twists here and there. Our dough is made in-house and fermented for a minimum of 24hrs to create a tasty and light base - minimal yeast so no bloating here. Then its hand-stretched, topped with quality ingredients imported from Italy AND sourced locally, and cooked at a fiery 400 degrees.We do other stuff as well - starters, sharers, salads, homemade desserts, and gelato. Plus cocktails, imported and locally brewed beers, and some carefully selected wines from independent wineries.

We arrived at 5:30 and the view was stunning over the water. Food was incredible. Service a bit rushed even though we had plenty of time with a 2 hour allocation. We haven’t been to this restaurant for some time but will definitely go back soon.

I had a chicken and lamb yiro which was delicious. Ample filling and very appetising. The petite dessert was extra special as I love chocolate torte and baklava so could have both without having to make a decision. The only disappointment was the coffee. It wasn’t served very hot and maybe it was the coffee blend but it didn’t taste quite right. Service was excellent especially as the restaurant was busy with Christmas parties. Staff were also great. 9/10 overall.

We celebrated my husband’s birthday at Ricky’s . We discovered this restaurant while navigated on the river with our family and it looked as a stunning setting. We were absolutely delighted by everything, starting with the modern classy interior, outstanding service, the views and most importantly the food ! The menu is original , anyone with any interest can find something extraordinary or more simple but high quality executed to perfection. Special mention for the dessert menu which is so difficult to find with something out of ordinary. We had the passion fruit souffle with white chocolate mousse little lemony ( or passonfruit ) jelly cubes and tiny crumble, absolute perfection! We are now having our favourite restaurant around Noosa ! Thank you Ricky’s !!!!
