I had the pleasure of dining here this afternoon on a very hot day by the beach. From the moment my meal started I was blown away by the service and the quality of the food and drinks. My server, Bianca, was attentive without rushing me, and all the other staff I interacted with were lovely. The calamari and fried mozzarella apps were fantastic and the cheese wheel pasta meal is MUST if you dine there on a Monday or Wednesday. The drinks were perfect, and so refreshing on such a warm day. I can’t wait to come back and try more menu items, this is a hidden gem for sure!

Last night, we had the pleasure of trying the beautifully designed new restaurant on 3 D Street at Hampton Beach for the first time. The inviting atmosphere, complete with touches of the Italian flag throughout, immediately drew us in. The waitstaff was exceptional attentive, professional, and clearly dedicated to ensuring every guest felt well cared for.
We were especially fortunate to speak with one of the owners, who passionately shared the inspiration behind the menu and the focus on authenticity.
The food Absolutely outstanding. Every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented true culinary artistry.
We’re so excited to have a place offering homemade, authentic Italian cuisine just steps from the beach. You won’t be disappointed the generous portions, attention to detail, and quality ingredients make every dollar worth it.
Wishing the very best to this wonderful addition to Hampton Beach! Thankfully, their other location is open year-round off the beach because once you try it, you’ll definitely be coming back for more.

Added charm to Hampton Beach! We had the chicken Milanese with side of garlic spinach and meatballs. We took home Italian sea bass and some tiramisu. All food, so delicious and their lemon drop martini with rose petals simply made me smile & feel like I was a princess! Thank you- it’s a must try experience as not only is the food great but the entire staff is so welcoming and wonderful!

I was at Ronaldo’s Ristorante at the beach at a wine event and it was absolutely beautiful. The wine selection was truly special with many options to choose from. The staff was attentive and did their job very well. This restaurant does a great job of offering various experiences for their customers. I heard many good things about the Cheese Wheel experience, which I added to my calendar. Great experience overall, I highly recommend it for a relaxing night by the beach!

We had such a wonderful dinner at Ronaldo Restaurant during our visit to Hampton Beach — it was honestly one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed and taken care of, and the food… wow.
The Cacio e Pepe was such a fun and memorable part of the evening, especially for our kids. They were absolutely delighted watching it being prepared tableside — and of course, they loved the spaghetti (they’re still talking about it!). But it wasn’t just for the kids — we loved it too. It was creamy, peppery, and perfectly balanced — a dish that’s simple in concept but so beautifully executed.
I have to say, the octopus was probably the softest and juiciest I’ve ever had. I’ve tried it at a lot of places over the years, and this one really stood out — tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Definitely a must-try.
We also shared the short rib ravioli, and it was incredible. Rich, comforting, and full of flavor — it’s the kind of dish you find yourself thinking about long after the meal is over.
Ronaldo really feels like a hidden gem in Hampton. The quality and creativity of the dishes could easily rival some of the finer restaurants we’ve tried in New York. If you’re anywhere near the area, do yourself a favor and make a reservation. We’re already looking forward to going back.

Although the restaurant looks a little sketchy on the outside, the inside is warm and welcoming, spacious, well decorated, clean and comfortable. We were greeted by a very friendly young lady, and she wanted us to sit where we would most enjoy. Very nice! She brought us rolls, butter and a small plate with 2 cubes of pecorino Romano cheese. The dinners were good but what we expected for the price and the setting. Lasagna was good but not as cheesy as expected; and Tuscan chicken could have used more veggies, herbs and flavor. The Parmesan shaker on the table was almost full and difficult to coax the Parm out. A good sized tablespoon of freshly grated Parm would have been a tremendous help to the meal. The fig & amaretto Manhattan was good and nicely presented. The Peroni beer was served in a Bud Light glass, and would have been so much nicer in a Peroni beer glass or a plain crystal beer glass. All said, the appetizers look excellent, and I would definitely go back for another meal.

My husband and I tried Ronaldo’s in Hampton Beach last night. The food was amazing. I ordered the lobster ravioli in an alfredo sauce. The ravioli was stuffed with fresh lobster and the sauce was rich and buttery. My husband ordered the seafood fettuccini alfredo. It was loaded with fresh lobster, shrimp and massive scollops. The alfredo sauce wasn’t too heavy allowing the seafood to be the star of the plate. My espresso martini was so good. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. We sat outside where the ocean breeze was perfect. We will definitely be back very soon.
