First time visiting Rucci's, the food was good and our waitress, Angelica, was awesome. Her customer service was excellent and she made our first visit a great experience. We will definitely be back

The restaurant features a great menu with delicious and plentiful dishes such as the Reuben sandwich and shrimp appetizer. Known for their large portions, Italian entrees, and the best crab soup, it remains a top choice in the area. Guests particularly enjoy the high-quality Italian food, with many dishes like crab ravioli, chicken parm, and seafood scampi praised for their flavor and generous servings. The cocktails, including the Coconut Pear-adise martini and Peach Spritz, are also highly recommended. Desserts are a highlight, especially the apple pie doughboy—freshly baked apples wrapped in delicately flavored dough—and the decadent chocolate cake, which is rich and flavorful. The desserts are freshly made and worth the wait, with one being perfect for sharing.
