We love Carrabbas and most all of their menu items including their fresh tasting grilled chicken, pork, and beef entrees . We went to Ricciardi's a few nights ago and were sorely disappointed with the taste of our food. I always hesitate to write negative reviews based on one experience, but quite frankly we were expecting much better. My wife had a simple meal of pasta with marinara sauce and grilled chicken, and the chicken did not taste good and the sauce was very disappointing. I ordered linguine with white clam sauce and it was totally tasteless but for the small pieces of clams on top of the pasta. The sauce was so watered down it looked like plain hot water in the bottom of the dish. I have had this selection at countless restaurants over the years and this was by far the most disappointing. I loved the decor, cleanliness, attentive staff, but not the food. Yes I did express my disappointment. Maybe we picked the wrong menu items since I had no read a negative review before we tried this restaurant.
