After so many positive testimonials we gave it a try last month. We got there early anticipating a large crowd and were only the third couple sat. I ordered the eggplant parmigiana and my wife ordered the chicken parmigiana. The red sauce on both our orders was dark brown and tasted burnt. Also, our waitress was more interested in a constant chit chat with the staff than attending to our table. Our drinks ran out, empty dirty dishes were not picked up. And as you can imagine no apology was offered, we felt as if we were disturbing her. Our first and only experience wasn't good, we won't be going back.
Conversely, with many negative opinions about Riccardi's we find their food excellent and the service pretty good. Go figure.
