My friends spaghetti was amazing. He said. Hit the spot and was exactly what he wanted. My fettuccine Alfredo was OK. Pasta was cooked correctly, but the Alfredo sauce was a little soupy/runny and very buttery. Not to my liking personally. But it wasn’t horrible.
I would come again and try something else as everything else about this place was great.
Unfortunately, several dishes fell short. One baked potato was clearly a day old. The replacement mashed potatoes were extremely runny — more like soup than mashed potatoes. The ribeye was very gristly, which made it difficult to enjoy, and the pasta was bland and lacked seasoning or depth of flavor. The salmon was also disappointing — overly fatty and not prepared in a way that balanced that richness.
The Arnold Palmer was another letdown. It tasted like it was made with powdered mix (similar to Nestea). The first one served to me was so concentrated it tasted like it had an excessive amount of powder mixed with very little water.
On a positive note, the halibut was excellent — well prepared and flavorful. The Mediterranean seafood dish was also quite good.
Overall, while a couple of items were enjoyable, the quality and consistency across the meal were uneven, especially given the expectations for this type of restaurant.
Service here was above and beyond — I forgot to take a coloring book for my 3 year old, and our server brought out some plain paper and highlighters before coming out with some cute printed coloring sheets for her. This was super kind!
To start, we ordered Caesar salads, minestrone soup and oysters. The oysters served were blue points — nice and fresh.
For entree, I ordered the filet mignon with truffle butter. The steak came with a side of rosemary potatoes and vegetables — my steak was perfectly cooked medium and so delicious. The meat was tender and the truffle butter was a great addition and brought everything together. My partner loved their chicken Marsala and my daughter enjoyed the spaghetti and meatballs.
For dessert, cannolis were brought out for my dad and we sang happy birthday. We also ordered the chocolate cake and cheesecake — both were great although I really loved the cheesecake. The cheesecake was so good — well balanced and soft.
Thank you to Riccio’s for a wonderful birthday dinner for my dad!
We came as a family — two adults and three children — dressed respectfully and excited to enjoy dinner. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing from the start. We were greeted with strange looks by the hosts, which made us feel unwelcome.
After ordering, we were surprisingly asked to pay the full bill before our food arrived — something we’ve never experienced at any other restaurant, especially after dining at places like Gordon Ramsay’s in Las Vegas, where the bill was double the price and the hospitality was outstanding.
The total was about $350, and while we paid it without issue, the service felt judgmental and cold. The children’s burger was particularly bad — the patty was completely dry, something I wouldn’t even serve at home.
We had hoped for a pleasant, family-friendly evening, but sadly this place fell far short of expectations. We will not return and would not recommend it to families.
