Everytime you would like to add some italian taste to your american days Il Riccio is the right spot on the Upper East side. Genuine italian food under the supervision of Giovanni and Vincenzo who bring to the table their original roots. Deserve a visit!!!!
Service and food were excellent! Very clean and colorful room that made us feel like we were somewhere along the Amalfi Coast! Luigi was very gracious and knowledgeable about the menu. We enjoyed our meal there and will be returning back very soon!
Great food and great atmosphere. The pasta was cooked perfectly and went really well with their wine selection. The server was attentive to us and the manager was in the dining room the whole evening making sure everything was running smoothly and all the customers were taken care of. Great experience, will return when I'm back in the neighborhood!
Had lunch with colleagues while we were in the area. The quiet, small restaurant is a beautiful little spot. We were attended to with care and precision. The brócoli bean soup was probably the best soup I’ve had in years. The gnocchi was also good, but since I had eaten half a loaf of some thick, incredible bread before the meal started I only ate half my plate. I’d highly recommend the spot.
Food is first rate, decor is charming...seating a little tight and tunnel like. Service excellent. All the specials are terrific and the whole fish is delicious. Tagliatelle with vodka sauce, fish, rib-eye, we have never had a disappointing meal. Desserts are great as well. Coffee perfect
