" Had high hopes after hearing so many rave reviews, but my experience at Riccardo's didn’t quite live up. Though the service was good and the atmosphere inviting, my fettuccine Alfredo lacked flavor and felt like it was just thrown together. The portion was decent, but I wouldn’t describe it as authentic Italian cuisine. I will give it another shot since others have had better experiences, but I left feeling a bit underwhelmed. " (*Curated Review*)

" Each time I visit Riccardo's, it just gets better! The owners are friendly, and they make a point to check in on you. The ravioli is one of my favorites and always comes out hot and fresh. I also appreciate their attention to detail with dishes, ensuring everything is plated well. Prices are very reasonable for the quality you get; I feel like it’s authentic Italian without the hefty price tag. Keep up the great work! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, this place blew my expectations out of the water. The moment I entered, I was greeted with warm smiles and lovely Italian decor. I started with the bruschetta, which was deliciously fresh and had nice seating. For my main, I opted for the Tortellini which was filling and very homely. The chicken was juicy and seasoned well. On top of that, the portions were generous for the price! If you're looking for Italian that feels like home, look no further. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had lunch here and was pleasantly surprised. The decor was cozy and relaxed. I ordered a classic lasagna. It was filled with rich flavors and had just the right amount of cheese. The bread that accompanied it was surely the best I’ve had! My only complaint would be about the parking situation; it was a bit tricky to find a spot. But overall, a solid experience and I can see why locals rave about this spot. " (*Curated Review*)

" Went to Riccardo's last week and it was a true delight! I shared the garlic bread with my friends, and we couldn't stop raving about it. For my main dish, I had the shrimp scampi, which was cooked perfectly. The atmosphere was warm and inviting - perfect for family dinners or casual hangouts. Highly recommend for anyone seeking delicious Italian without breaking the bank! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Riccardo's for the first time and absolutely fell in love with the bread! It was warm and flavorful, paired perfectly with garlic butter. The ambiance was cozy, making it a great spot for dinner. I ordered the Chicken Parmesan, and while it was good, I felt like it could use a bit more seasoning. Overall, a lovely meal and I’d definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Riccardo's has become my go-to for Italian meals! They are lucky to have such skilled chefs. I loved their penne and meatballs—definitely a comfort food moment for me. The service was quick, but I could tell the staff truly cared about the customer experience, which is rare to find. The only downside was I've had better bread elsewhere. Highly recommend to anyone with an appetite for Italian. " (*Curated Review*)
