I love this restaurant! The food is excellent, and there is always something new to try. The wait staff is on top of it! And they were very nice and professional. I can't wait to go back. I want to try the whole menu. Of course, just one visit at a time. Hahaha!

Bread was stale, I guess they don't care about bread. Minestrone soup came in a tiny sized coffee cup, and tasted watered down, guess they don't care about soup here. Pasta was $48. I'm no chef but I make better at home for 1/4 the cost. Will never go here again. Bottom line, if you’ve been to Europe this place won't live up to the standard. More like 1/8 tue quality.

It’s a cute place with a great staff. The food was pretty middle of the road. Nothing to crazy but not great.

It was a perfect day and a perfect lunch, celebrating a special birthday. Food, as always, delicious, and perfectly paired with our wine. Carson was the most attentive and professional server and added to our enjoyment! We will come to Riccardo's again and again.

My partner made reservations for a birthday evening dinner, as this place has been on our list for awhile ever since we moved into the area.The place is small and intimate, with an open shelf stuffed with wine bottles used as a partition to split the restaurant seating area into two areas, creating a nice atmosphere. The lighting is on the dimmer side, but not to the point where you are struggling to read your menu.The food was fantastic--the scallops were cooked perfectly, the soup of the day (a kind of stew) was extremely flavorful and the pasta was thick and tender. The portions were good, which is always good to see. I can go on about the food, but the shining star is definitely the service.Our waiter was Ryan, who is performing at the top of his game. This was our first time in this restaurant and he was a wealth of information and went above and beyond to make the evening an event instead of just a meal.From the start he was there to help with the daunting wine list, though we ended up just ordering a few glasses as opposed to the bottle. The wine by the glass selection was great--not that many to choose from but what there was on there was great. It being out first time, Ryan went out of his way to let us do a small sampler of each side option (entree comes with a choice of soup, which there is two of, or salad) bringing out each one as it's own course. We also ordered the scallop appetizer (amazing) and Ryan brought out a fried and stuffed olive appetizer as well. Each item was timed perfectly, allowing my partner and I to sit, chat and drink our wine.At the end of the night we ordered some decaf, and Ryan brought out some strawberry sorbet with a candle in it that was out of this world. I used to love strawberry ice cream as a child, and I don't know if you (dear reader) will be able to relate to this but it tasted how I remember strawberry ice cream tasted as a kid.All in all we spent a little over 3 hours here, the staff making their rounds ensuring a water cup nor wine glass was ever empty if desired. The courses never overlapped, and the entire staff was excellent.This place really separates itself from surrounding establishments, by being leagues ahead of the competition. Now I'm sure everyone who works here is fantastic, but Ryan was our server and I'm naming him server of the century.If you're looking for a place for a special occasion or just want to put on something nice and go out with your family or partner, you'd be doing yourself a disservice by not going to Ricardo's.Vegetarian options: They do also have vegetarian options if you're looking for that.

Very tighty restaurant, ordered steak and pork, food was nothing special but very pricey. Seated on the limited time table, told food will be out quickly but it took 25 or more minutes, very uncomfortable. Requested to move the table before dinner started.We'll need to try out Italian dishes next time. Oh, tomato soup was great!
