We had lunch at Orrico's today, following Wally's Instagram testimonial! It did not disappoint! Toni Ann and Robert are the most warm and friendly owners/host and chef! There were four of us, and we ordered a bunch of appetizers to start, one more delicious than the next! Baked clams oreganato were perfectly seasoned and fresh. If you can imagine a potato croquette getting any better, these were smothered in the most delicious marsala mushroom sauce. Dirty potato chips… Smothered in Gorgonzola sauce with chopped tomato and meatball! Delicious creamy arancini...the tomato sauce is amazing. For entrées, we were actually stuffed and decided to share a few entrées. We went with the highly recommended chicken parm and a custom dish that chef Robert was happy to oblige on! It was fried eggplant layered with a brown marsala mushroom sauce and melted mozzarella cheese. To die for! We had the spinach salad with cranberries, pears, and candied walnuts, and a raspberry vinegar dressing.... Side of bleu cheese. Amazing. The portions are so generous, we actually took leftovers home! Not that we needed it, but the delicious fresh crusty bread brought to the table, hit the spot as well, especially when soaking up all of the delicious sauces from our dishes! Quick ride from Westchester for sure! We will most definitely be back! Thanks so much from Bobby, Pat, Laura and Lisa!!

So the ask today was for a good Italian meal and what I got was great! We drove from Paramus, NJ - only a 45 minute ride and it was worth it! Cute interior and the ladies greeted us warmly. Once seated, they brought over fresh bread and olive oil ..yum. My first drink was a well prepared aperol spritz. You’d be surprised at how many places cannot make a decent one but this was not the case. Appetizer was mussels (a hearty helping with no empty shells) and the broccoli rabe eggrolls. WOW! We decided to take half home so we could enjoy our salad and dinner. The Caesar salad was delicious. I had the special veal chop valdostana which was cooked to perfection and my husband had the veal parmigiana which also was moist and delicious. Both portions were huge, we could have shared one dish but instead took the leftovers home for the family to try. Dessert was pistachio tartufo with a generous amount of whipped cream and chocolate sauce. The chef and his wife were lovely and visited our table which to me always makes me feel like family. Looking around you could see that the customers were comprised with regulars which lets you know it is a favorite among other places in the area. Next time you are looking for a delicious Italian meal run - don’t walk - to Orrico’s!! We will be back soon.

I just had to leave this review. We went there for my Uncles birthday and the service was incredible. They were so accommodating to our party and to my uncle who is in a wheel chair. Everyone was so nice, patient, professional, and respectful. The prices were great and they didn’t even charge a cake fee like a lot of these other restaurants do. Thank you for making my uncles birthday special. Well definitely be coming back ❤️

Robert is extremely talented. I love the eggplant parmigiana, antipasto and recently I had the baked ziti and everything was perfect! Of course I will be returning.

I was in this place last night and what a bad decision I made. The first thing is that I ordered some meetball the appetizer and it was totally cold but my daughter and I were so hungry that we were able to eat a little. The Bolognese pasta was horrible and my daughter's ravioli was not He could have eaten a whole one with so much sauce and the bad thing was, I don't know how people go to this place with horrible food. The only thing they have good about is the service. I would never go back again.

We started with Pasta Fagioli soup, they give a big bowl and it was delicious. Chicken parm was the best I ever had, 2 huge cutlets. BakedZiti, another huge bowl was also delicious but impossible to eat it all. Great family restaurant, big portions, reasonably priced highly
