If you're looking for the FINEST of fine restaurants to have a surprise bday party, look no further! Mine was just held there this past Saturday and it was EXTRA special thanks to the top notch efforts of Rico, David,Jay, Shelly, and Katelyn! My husband said David made the whole event stress free with all of the arrangements preceeding! The food was simply delicious...every bite! Friends are still calling me to rave about the pre-arranged menu of Chicken Fontinello, Broiled Seafood Rico, and the Prime Sirloin. The service went beyond the standard politeness and efficiency! JAY, Shelly, and Kaitlyn, you all set the bar high for other restaurant's waitstaff. Absolutely top notch! Honestly, I felt like a princess! Thank you, all!!!

A legend in the area for good reason. Northern Italian cuisine made with love. Pro tip: order the Rico's angel hair pasta with pignoli nuts as a side dish with any meal.

We were here for a private event in one of the backrooms.
Overall, the food was only ok. The beef tips were not very tender and the chicken dish was a bit bland.

The service was very good though and the atmosphere was nice! The restaurant itself smelled like seafood and was a bit dated.

Parking: Valet is the only option. Also somewhat difficult to actually locate the restaurant entrance.

Honestly just very overpriced for mediocre food.

Atmosphere didn’t feel great. The manager was arguing with the employees in front of the customers and most of them appeared visibly upset and as if they didn’t want to be there.

Forced valet parking was odd and unnecessary.

We split Caesar salad, soft shell crabs and angel hair with pignoli nuts. Some of Rico's best. I highly recommend!

Had a great time at Rico's. The Zucchini and Hot Peppers appetizers were both very good.

The Pittsburgh rare steak was cooked perfectly and adding a side of Fettuccine Alfredo was the perfect pairing.

Definitely recommend if you want a good steak and pasta.

I’ve never had a disappointing meal at Rico’s, and I’ve been coming here for about the last 40 years. Rico’s has always been a favorite. You won’t find many restaurants that consistently deliver such great food quality. Their Italian wine list is one of the best in the US—not to mention the other wines are excellent too. We even enjoyed a Marcassin Pinot during one of our visits. Although I moved to Ohio 20 years ago, I still make the hour-and-a-half drive just to dine here from time to time.
