I've dined here a handful of times, and it never disappoints. They're consistent with their food. I love their seafood linguine that's a significant portion. The prices are reasonable and always in large quantities. The service is always good, but if you have somewhere to be, I wouldn't dine in during busy dinner hours. They make their food fresh, so it does take longer than other restaurants. The food always comes out piping hot, though. They have a bar area in the back, and two dining areas. One in the front and one in the middle. The dining areas always get filled up during dinner hours. I would recommend this place if people want to experience delicious Italian dishes.

The food was very good, my husband and I both enjoyed our meal, the red sauce on our pasta was delicious. Our server Stephanie was kind and attentive. The only thing I would like to see different is we had a reservation but had to wait in the take out pickup line to get our table, would be nice if they had two separate lines. We will definitely go back again.

Review of Ruggiero's Trattoria Italian Steakhouse - Little Falls, NY As we were traveling back to our our home base, we were looking for a relaxing restaurant that has amazing food after a very long day of filming in Connecticut and our team found this amazing little gem. Our recent dinner experience at Ruggiero's Trattoria Italian Steakhouse in Little Falls, NY left us completely satisfied and impressed. From the moment we stepped foot inside, we were enveloped in the warm and inviting ambience of the restaurant. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by our hostess and soft live music of a gentleman resembling Tony Bennett in looks and voice. Our server Michelle was more than just a server, she approached our table with confidence and kindness. To start our meal, we indulged in their Manhattan Clam Chowder and French Onion soups. The Manhattan Clam Chowder was simply divine, with a rich and flavorful broth that was loaded with tender clams and savory vegetables. The French Onion soup was a delight as well, with the perfect balance of sweet caramelized onions and melted cheese on top. The side salad was fresh and crisp, complementing the flavors of our starters. Moving on to the anticipated entrees, we were pleased to find that they exceeded our expectations. The Chicken Parmigiana, with its homemade sauce, was a true standout. The chicken was perfectly cooked, tender, and juicy, while the sauce had a depth of flavor that could only come from homemade goodness. It was a comforting and satisfying dish that hit all the right notes. Equally impressive was the Salmon dish, which was served with a side of rice pilaf. The salmon was cooked to perfection - moist, flaky, and seasoned just right. The rice pilaf provided a delectable accompaniment, with each grain cooked to the ideal texture and packed with fragrant flavors. Throughout the evening, the attentive service from the staff added to the overall dining experience. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive to our needs, ensuring that we had a memorable and enjoyable evening. Ruggiero's Trattoria Italian Steakhouse truly delivers on its promise of delicious, authentic Italian cuisine. The attention to detail in each dish, from the homemade sauces to the expertly cooked proteins, showcases the chef's culinary expertise. The flavors were rich, satisfying, and left us craving for more. If you find yourself in Little Falls, NY, we highly recommend dining at Ruggiero's Trattoria Italian Steakhouse. Whether you're in the mood for classic Italian dishes or perfectly cooked steaks, this restaurant offers a dining experience that is sure to leave you wanting to come back for more. Thank you for a wonderful dinner and experience here from the Essence of Travel and Discoveries, a KAMAR Media Film Production Company. Rating:

A solid 5 star restaurant in a small town. Coming from the bustling Bay Area, I knew this would be a whole different vibe which it was. The place was quite full, so I'm glad we made reservations and were seated promptly. Now I'll be honest, the drinks were good, but the wines were lackluster, but that's ok. The food! OMG the food! Started with the garlic bread with cheese and stuffed my face. It was so great, crunchy, garlicky-everything you could imagine. For the main course I had the chicken riggie, as I've heard it's a local specialty. It was AMAZING. I even when to a different place on Monday and theirs was not as great. But this place...I'm drooling. Having Pat there to sing made it even better!

We were a large group and all of our food and drinks were right and served to the right person. Special allergy requirements were accommodated. The musician was fun and entertaining. All in all a good experience.

The escarole appetizer was outstanding. I had a very good prime rib and my husband had the eggplant Parm. Good tangy tomato pasta sauce, not overly herby. Will definitely go back.
Small front room and larger dining room in rear. I ate out front but the back room looked cozier. The food was excellent. I'm not from the area but if I was, this place would be one of my go to places.

My Husband and I were traveling through upstate NY and stopped here for a bite. What a wonderful experience we had! Maryann our waitress was attentive, and knowledgeable. She brought generous pours of wine to enjoy with our delicious entrees of homemade Italian fare. We arrived on Friday night and Pat was there to entertain. It was like a step back in time. Truly wonderful.

Great food and atmosphere. A little slow service, but good food takes time. The service staff were friendly and accommodating. Don't miss out on the Greens Ruggiero's and the Penne Sinatra.

Our food was outstanding. The menu has a large number of options, and all of them sound wonderful. We both ordered one of the specials of the evening and we were greatly satisfied. The bread was light in texture and very tasty. Mary Ann gave us great service.
