Ricciardi's Italian Table - Gourmet Italian Dining The Villages, Fl - Ricciardi's Italian Table - Our Table

I went there yesterday with my older brother Robert and my parents and we all enjoyed the Italian food.

When did they open as I did not notice them the last time I was in Brownwood?

Over a year ago.

They opened January 22, 2104 to be exact.
They were busy all last winter.

Glad to hear that they are doing well. They deserve it from our experiences there yesterday.

We were there a few nights ago.

Waitress gave us a coupon for a free appetizer because she could not get back to us timely.

Can't imagine what it will be like when the snowbirds arrive.

8 of us went to Ricciardi's Saturday night for a friends birthday. Hate to be negative, but the service was awful, waited 40 minutes for our drinks, We talked to the manager at least 3 times, food was cool as well as not very appealing to some. We also had to move some of the dishes to another table so we would have some room. The place was about 1/2 full with customers. Never a problem in the past. If the waitress was new, she needs a lot more training.

Was there last week. Food was good, but the service was poor. I didn't think is was overly crowded, so I don't know why we did not receive better service.

My bride is wonderful.............."maybe she is new", "maybe she is having a bad day", "you don't know what is going on at home", "we have plenty of time, just relax". She always reels me back in.

We ate there last March or April. Service was good, but food was awful. Never again for us.

Sounds like the typical mixed bag/mixed experiences restaurant review. Only ate there once last February, it had its problems. Given the positive reviews, might be worth another try
unfortunately,

Honestly , I wish people who comment on ethnic style food wood kinda state -where they're from. We went to Gettysburg--went to an oriental restaurant--they brought out white bread & butter--we bailed.

Ricciardi's -- is honestly a poor excuse for REAL Italian food--its nursing home style Italian food.

An excellent observation! Never been in a Nursing Home but surely Hospital quality.

I've had Italian food in at least 2 dozen hospitals---our only experience at Riccardi's would rank about 22nd on the list. But like I said, given some recent positive reviews, I'll give it another try. If it sucks again, I'll give the positive reviewers a free Italian meal at Belleview Hospital (No cheating and walking over to little Italy)

If they can't make Italian bread--they can't cook Italian food-told them to go to Mazzara's in St. Pete & buy their bread there--might give them a fighting chance-you got kid's spending their dad's money, when its gone they'll shut the doors
