Ricci's Family Restaurant
Our phone lines are currently not working To place an order please order through our online ordering tab through this website. Our dining room is open until 8:00pm tonight 9/27. Come here almost every month it seems like. My family loves the food here. Always have good meals, never had any problems.

My father always gets a massive Prime Rib on the weekends and he always gets it medium rare - what does he get back? A deliciously cooked medium rare piece of meat! In business since 1970, Ricci's is proud to provide our clientele with friendly service, great food, and a comfortable atmosphere. Freshly grilled cajun chicken with mixed greens, hard boiled eggs, tomatoes, onion & cheddar cheese.

Very nice. Met and seated immediately by a greeter/hostess and as we were waiting for friends, had attentive put patient server while we waited. Food was prepared well and although it was my first time here, i found the food was excellent and my favorite dish was made exactly like I would like and expect. Attentive service and they let us converse with no rush. I'd come back for sure.

The food and atmosphere here is fantastic. We loved it. The clams and mussel appetizer was very good. The bread there was so fresh and soft but crispy on the outside. It was cooked very well. We also got the French onion soup which was very flavorful. Our waitress was Cheryl. She was very sweet and attentive. I highly recommend this restaurant not only for the food and drinks but as well as the service.

Horrible! Service was the worst, left sitting for 15 min till approached. Table SO SMALL, person seated behind kept bumping chair. Shoulder resting on protruding brick wall. Our plates wouldn't all fit on the table! Ordered clams casino, BURNT and dry, so salty. Scallops and broccoli sitting in water on both plates. Scallops were tasteless and bad. Calimari average, lack luster, not crispy enough and sauces served in plastic to go cups with lids. The ricotta looked like rice and was lumpy and gross, see picture. Table next to us not happy, sent food back. Was so dissapointed with EVERTHING here

The place is very nice, but I had ...I forgot name, linguini with sauce with 3 tiny clams, 3 shrimp, 3 scallops. And had enough pasta for my whole family left over. And honestly, I Don't like the plain sauce. My husband had lasagna , which was just barely warm but he won't ever ask to heat it. My friend had Lobster a bisque soup...made her husband trade his onion soup with her. I'll stick with pizza for there . Nice server and bartender.

Best jambalaya ever. And I have tried many. Good service all good size portions. Priced under what you might typically see in a chain restaurant. Look forward to going back again and again.

Best subs around. Didn’t even know this existed till we drove by. Crisp romaine, thin boars head meat, very good bread, and fresh vegetables make a killer sub! Thank you and will be back a lot.

I've lived near Ricci's for close to 30 years and never made the decision to visit them until today. Wow, have we been missing out.
We ordered the Artichokes French, Calamari Capri, Broiled Haddock Amandine & 12oz Ribeye Special.
The appetizers were plentiful and more than I expected to come out. You always feel a lot of restaurants cheap out on the portion size. A generous portion of each and the calamari was done perfectly. Not chewy and the flavor was robust. The Artichokes French was flavored just right and melted in your mouth with each bite.
The clam chowder that came out before our meal

I had Arancini which was a single serving but I split it 3 ways it was so big. And delicious! Chicken parmigiana and angel hair spaghetti along with a side salad. Huge portions. Went with 2 friends, we all took half home. Great service and friendly waitress.

The food was great. The animosity between all the ladies that work there made it a little uncomfortable and awkward. I'd still go back for the food!

Who puts sugar in their mashed potatoes? Apparently Ricci's does. At first I thought it was my imagination, but my second forkful confirmed that there was a definite sweetness to the 'mashed redskin potatoes' I had ordered as my side dish. The clam chowder was thin, with too many potatoes and not enough clams. The salad, which was nothing more than a bowl of lettuce with one cherry tomato and two croutons, was not crisp. The service was poor as well.

I have to say that this was not my first visit to Ricci's. And a few of those times the food has been excellent. But

We have been going to Ricci's for several years, so this review is long overdue. They are an authentic Italian restaurant with a wide array of signature dishes to please any craving you may have.

For salad lovers, I highly recommend the Grilled Steak Caesar Salad or Ricci's Cobb Salad. Want a full hearty dinner? Try the Chicken Elaine, with its grilled chicken breasts and creamy Alfredo over linguine or the Chicken French, which is served with the traditional lemon-wine sauce over angel hair pasta! Both are simply delicious!

Not feeling like salad, chicken or pasta? Try

Ok, sorry Yelpers, but I have gone here for more than 30 years and this place not only has consistently had fantastic service, it is some of the best Italian food in Rochester. There is no fanfare, just simply prepared, great food with a staff that wants you to enjoy eating there.

Bestttt family restaurant in the area!
The owners are Italian so they certainly specialize in Italian food! Their pasta is out of this world. Would highly recommend. My favorite so far was one of their specials.. the putenesca pasta. I'm really hoping they add it to their menu!

They also do a great job with the kids. Great kids menu and love the teddy graham touch. My girls look forward to that now!

OMG I am not in Indiana anymore!

First Ricci's is very proudly been in business since 1970. It is housed in a former bank with a cozy feel. Decor is dated but clean and comfortable. I feel as if I am in a restaurant from my childhood.

They start you out with fresh bread with butter or dried herbs with olive oil

Fresh Parmesan is on the table with hot pepper flakes.
Salad with fresh tasting Parmesan peppercorn dressing. Simple but tasty.
The chicken piccata was spectacular. Not as good as mine but very tasty.

I will be back.

Hey I'm sorry that I have to give this a bad review. but the order I received was not good, and I spent almost $50 on this order I ordered a chicken piccata with a onion soup and a pepperoni pizza. the noodles were overcooked,the sauce was very watery like soup , The onion soup I'm not even going to call it soup it was just a bowl full of onions barely any soup,the was rubbery and tough and the pizza was very cold the cheese was stringy. Side bread did not come with any butter..and it just wasn't a good experience for me and this is the first time I have tried this restaurant.

A gem of a restaurant in Rochester!!! You know a place is good when there is equal takeout to eat in ratio. The bread is fantastic. I had homemade gnocchi with the most delicious meatballs. My better half had the homemade lasagna- superb. We will be back.

My co-workers kept talking about Ricci's and how amazing it was. I was tired of hearing about it so I had to find out for myself.

I didn't make a reservation on a Saturday evening which I normally would have. If you make a reservation, everyone in your party must be present in order to be seated. My husband and I waited about 15 minutes before we were taken to a booth.

There's a waiting area with seats and a bench next to the coat room and bathrooms. The restaurant isn't that big but there is a bar. The decor is not fancy, just a mom and pop restaurant with a homey feel

My taste buds are singing, Heaven, I Am In Heaven...while diving in delectable Artichoke Heart French. An ahhh moment, which could have lasted longer but like any good love, ended too fast.
Lightly seasoned, lemony, not greasy, tender and fresh.
The best I have ever had! And when was the last time you said that.
Ricci's has you begging for seconds. Highly recommended!

I wanted to LOVE this place - the Rochester family restaurant scene is so awesome.

We made reservations for 4 people at 5:30pm. We got there, were told it was very busy so would probably be awhile, and were yelled at by the woman at the front desk for bringing a newborn to a reservation for FOUR people. The baby must count as fifth person in a reservation. We explained that we could hold the baby and the baby didn't need a seat. She said, "How? With what? The baby needs a seat!" My husband said, "We can just hold him. He's a newborn. We have arms." She declined and

I remember eating out at Ricci's throughout my childhood and recently we had dinner here when I was back in town visiting. I have to say, it was just the same (and just as good) as I remember it! Ricci's does a great job with red sauce Italian classics---you won't go wrong ordering pizza, chicken parmesan, eggplant parm, or veal parm.

Dinner starts with their warm bread and a plate of spices that you can mix with olive oil to spread on the bread---delicious. Their salads are great too (they have chickpeas in them!) and they always have my favorite dressing, parmesan peppercorn

First time visiting Rochester and had my first meal at Ricci's. The place is casual, but white table cloth, a family run place that was doing a bustling business.

I followed suit and got what grandma ordered...broiled Haddock. Wowza, this was one of the top 10 tastiest fish entrees I have ever had. I am not used to seeing much Haddock in the Bay Area where I am from and it was a delicious treat. The portion was massive, and cooking was perfection, so simply done. My mouth is watering now just writing about it.

Gramps and the man got prime rib and it was also a enormous poirtion

My boyfriend and I headed to Ricci's for an early Valentine's Day dinner. Our waitress was really nice and let us both taste some wine to decide which one we wanted for the night.
The highlight of the night was the French onion soup cup. This was probably the second best I've ever had.
We also split quesadillas as an appetizer. They were solid and the portion was large. They came with thick sour cream and what seemed to be homemade salsa on the side.
For the main course I got chicken parm with a side of pasta. The chicken was good and crispy and not too greasy. One of the highlights

I went there back in February with my mother and we were very pleasantly surprised. Gave it 4 stars. But tonight was my second visit, with my husband, and that was a definite 1-star experience. So let's put them together for a 2.5.

My first visit, the server was solid and the food was excellent.

Tonight, the food was mediocre and the service was awful. We shrugged off the first handful of service issues... the group of young staff that ignored us when we walked in while they finished their conversations and giggles...the water and soda glasses that never were filled...dirty appetizer plates

I don't know how it's possible, but I only recently tried their pizza.
I am pretty much a pizza connoisseur and somehow I never paid attention to the entire section on the menu devoted to my favorite delicacy.
Well, I tried it. And sweet baby jesus, the sh*t was tasty as all get out.
The pepperoni is hand cut and thick, the crust and sauce are perfection. I'm even totally okay with having to pick it up, because a half sheet is only $13.77 after tax- don't forget to tip on a take out order though!
