Been too long! I came here a few years ago, just never got back. Decided to come late this afternoon. Great food. Amazing service. Everything was a wonderful experience. Highly recommend!

Came here for an early work dinner- large party of 10. We had the whole place to ourselves when we first arrived at 5:30pm and the service was quick. We got apps and wine so fast. We all placed our orders and it came decently quick for how much we ordered being a large group. Portions are huge! Enough for 2-3 meals- so def worth the steep prices. As we ate the restaurant started getting filled up quickly and before we knew it there wasn't a single open table. Ambiance was great! But, that did mean that we waited 30 min for our check and leftovers to be packaged up. Overall we had a great time, friendly service and great food! I'd come back again

This is the type of place you'd get recommended from the Nonno sitting in the stairwell while wandering around North End. Skip all the fru-fru places and just come to Riccardo's. Is that pronounced "Rickardos" or Richardos"? We will never know, but somewhere an Italian has a very strong opinion about it. I'll leave that to the professionals and just enjoy the meal. Plenty of seating here for parties of 1 or 21. The upstairs will fit your team meeting or family celebration just fine. Or if your one of the lucky ones you get to hobnob with the elites on ground level. I was a plebe treated like royalty upstairs. I'm amazed at the waiter's memory. My order was straightforward, but he knocked out the 8-top beside me with ease. I also love the adept way he guided the poor-decision people next door: Midwest accent: "should I get this or some other totally different completely unrelated thing as my main course?" Boom: "get dis; it's da best". "Ookeey sounds good donchaknow." Back at my lonely table with the nice window-view since I'm so special, it was Peronis, bruschettas, lasagnas. I added the "s" just because. And believe me there's no way you could finish multiple of these in one sitting. I wasn't with my wife tonight, which proved fortunate (not because I don't enjoy every moment with her!) since the bruschetta had mushrooms. She informed me during dinner-recap that she would have "not liked that at all!". I however did, but I'll remember that for future reference. The lasagna was deceptively filling. I finished it, of course. What do you think I'm some type of novice Little Italy tourist? But with all that extra bread and olive oil, it was going to require a walk around the End before I was ready for some gelato. Prices here are as reasonable as it gets, with plenty of selection and a few nightly specials. I enjoyed the visit and would return "again and again and again".
